shall never forget how surprised was when l first heard of the bach elor girl-the new substitute for the spinster; and many people do not yet see the sense of the title and smile at t. but it is 9 well won and honorable title which I have come to respect. The good old spinster never had to make a choice between marriage and @ career; but when the problem arose and she met it and decided it. thus eleyating herself to a condition of in- dependence from a state of dependence, the changed spirit of the new woman called for new name; and the bach elor girl fits the single woman who Las the ability to enter every indus trial occupation aLd acquire the skill which gives her the pay and commen- Ga tion which used to be given solely tC men. The bachelor girl was born in the last part of the 18th century, and in the 20th she will make her mark As a bachelor girl she deserves to be and is looked up to with respect.

Our beliefs have a great deal to do with earth conditions. Talk of hell never worries the Eskimos, for their hope is that they will experience noth- ing colder; and eternal fires seem like a fairy tale to dwellers in all parts of the earth where there are no evidences of such a possibility. An agnostic who has just been visiting New Zealand and who was in a section where the Maoris cook over hot water bubbling up through the earth 365 days in a year, as an evidence of the heat in the bowels of the earth, and where there is a never ending odor of sulphur, ven lures to say this made him suspicious that there might be hell, if it did not convince him there was one. Living over such a cauldron made life to him hardly worth living He thinks some thing is going to happen there. some time.

THE MAN WHO TALKS

The misuse of the mind and the abuse of the stomach are things most of us are guilty of; and If these are not counted among the little vices they are sins against nature which have promptly to be answered for. The reason we are race of dyspsp- ties is because we pay little attention to the chemical qualities of our food, or the proper mastieation of 1t. The reason we become easy victims is be- cause we let fear possess our mind and all kinds of whimB agitate it- we have not established there a per- manent seat for reason. These ex- cesses make Of us lnvalids and freaks. Nature is an ever faithful guard, and never fails to warn uB of the peril of our heedlessness: and we ignore her signals, hence we deserve the distress which results from our wtllful viola tion of the divine laws under which We may have continuous health and strength. Professedly good people are often mighty bad along these lines.

 Output Far Ahead of Texas.

Texarkana, Aug. 30-Er. T. A.. Simms, holder of extensive proper ties in the Caddo oil fields, returned this morning from weeks visii in that quarter. He reports great amount of activity in the oil field.
 Dr. Simms states that the Caddo field is ten times as large as that at Beaumont, Tex, and that the yield is far greater than it was al Beaumont in the palmiest days of that famous field New wells are con- stantly being sunk in the Caddo dis trict, and wells that were brought in four wears ago continue. to give as as large yield of oil as at first. There is as yet no indication what ever of exhaustion This pr. Simms says is equally true of the gas sup ply. Besides the gas pressure seems to be fully as strong as when the first we'll as tapped five CT six years ago. A large number Of gas wells which were capped when frs brought in are being held in reserve by the gas companies for future leeds.

ton that newspaper advertising is the only medium through which the best results can be obtained by business houses
 That newspaper advertising pays is shown daily in this and other cities.

But big advertisers are invariably the largest business getters' and they reap the harvest when the op- portunities present themselves.
