former FL Pasoan, who has returned
from the east. says:
81 have been visiting a number of
eastern cities with a view to engaging
capital to invest in the southwestern
country in mines and real estate, and
everywhere 1 went I was surprised to
learn how well posted the man of cap
ital is and what a deep interest he
takes in future investments in Ell
Paso and its surrounding lands and
mines, and I found that the recent "un-
pleasantness' in Mexico has been quite
an educator to the far sighted man
wanting to get in on the ground floor
on investments suitable to his judg-
ment. A number of capitalists express
ed themselves as intending TO come
here as soon as satisfied that the con-
ditions in Mexico are settled. with
view to investing in this vicinity
by the sudden turn of affairs in
Mexico and the assurances from the
victorious party that foreign capital
will not only be protected even better
than under the old regime, but that
there will be an entire absence of ia
voritism heretofore extended to a ia
vored few, the monied man and in
weston will now make. a peaceful in
vasion Of that country; and realizing
the prominence given FL Paso as the
which the eyes of the world have been
directed, I have returned TO locate here

Tense. The trouble was that the un-
discriminating individual had merely
used the wrong adjective.
For there is one particular adJect-

And the art of pleasing consists IN
knowing how TO choose the right one.
What pleasing sentiment, for ex-

the ear of the thin woman to be called
slender, willowy, or syelt; and now
unforgivably offensive to be told that
she is scrawny.
How n Family Feud Once Started Over
the Lack of An Adjective.
I know of family feud that had its
beginning in a tactless woman with
limited supply of adjeetiyes, Writing
to a young mother, who had sent ner
the picture of a homely baby, that
little Johnny appeared to be nice.
healthy child But the fond mother
would have been overjoyed If her cor
respondent had said that little Johnny
was remarkably interesting child
What difference it makes whether
you call a snub nose pug nose, or
speak of 1t as a tip-tilted, or retrousse
nose.
Who would not be furious at being
labeled sallow, and who would not CUR
gle with delight at being described as
having an olive complexion.
What woman would not resent being
called ash coIored. but beam with JOY
at being referred to as pale silver
blonde?
Yet all these ways of putting it mean
the same thing. The difference lies
in the adjective.
There are those that think that all

not felt like Draining the blunderer
who handed us the wrong adjective
