NEW YORK, September 4.-The
Measure Of New York has developed
one large . business which is not on
broadway and is not connected with
the eye or stomach.
Horseback riding is related to the
other pleasures of the city as an
antidote to late suppers and irregular
sleep by the men, and the f1eshlness
which is the fear Of women who lead
the very lives conducive to that con-
dition.
The bride paths in Central Park
are the center for the sport. Ihey
wind through the trees and shruboerE
and circle the reservoir by devious
routes which make possible long
and varied ride in a limited area.
There are a surprisingly large num-
her of persons. mostly business men,
who take to the paths between and

ton by riding at that hour. which

Stables Between Apartments.
The location of the park. surround

on the southern end by fine apart

in the erection and maintenance Of
the stables.
These are sect between apartment
houses, often being indistinguishable
from other buildings to the casual
pa sser-by. and they maintain high
degree OF sanitation.

which once stood in each small town
where the garage now Is located. the
fees range upward from fifty dollars
month. and when the owner is un-
able to ride his horse for the day a
groom will exercise 1t for an addi-
tional fee.
The upkeep of a horse Is equal in
the long run to that of small car,
with veterinary and other expenses.

from $3.50 to $500. A colt worth $50

Wrinkles Removed in

Quite a sensation has been created
in certain social circles over the won
derful rejuvenating effects of sim.
pie Tarkroot mixture any woman can
easily apply. The results are so re-
markable that one has told others,
who have told many more; now the
new method bids fair to supersede
all patent wrinkle removers. massage
and other things for the purpose.
This is the procedure: A spoonful
Of Powdered Tarkroot is mixed with
a spoonful of leman juice. and this is
spread over the face. An amazing
transformation takes place, as the
mirror shows. In less than 10 min
utes wrinkles, crowsfeet and creascs
have completely vanished Facial con-
tour is noticeably improved and the
face looks years younger. The most
skillful massaging could not produce
such wholesome effect as remains
after the mixture has been washed
off. Tarkroot is of course perfectly
harmless. inexpensive, too. An orig
inal package from the druggist con-
tains sufficient to bring the cost per
treatment under three cents.

for violation Of the liquor law there
are more than 100 violations, yea 800
violations if you please, by people
who are never even tried, let alone

As to the highway situation, the
governor says that part OF the crit
cism against the highway commission
has been justified, but most of the
criticism has not been prompted by
either desire TO state the facts or
from any patriotic desire to help the
state. l shall hot dodge my response

governor recommends that the com

commission be increased from $500
10 $1,000 a year, the commissioners
being required TO give their entire
time TO their official duties.
The governor not only thinks that
the gasoline tax law is just but rec
ommends that the tax be increased
from i TO 5 cents on the gallon.
PRISONS SELF-SCPPORTING.
As TO the penitentiary system, the
governor says that when she was
elected she promised 10 use her best
efforts TO make the penitentiary sys-
TEN self-sustaining.
That promise has been kept and

Under the. sub-besd Of Ferguson
ism the governor has this to say:
while some are so insistent on
talking about the claim Of Ferguson
ism let me give the figures that might
be instructive 10 those who seek to
create the idea that Fergusonism has
not been for the bests interests Of the
state.
Texas was admitted TO the Union
in 1916 and from that time down to
the election Of my husband as COVER
nor was a span of 70 years. During
this period there were many governors,
from Arson Jones TO Jim Ferguson.
During this entire 20 years the state
spent for public buildings paid for by
appropriations. including insane asy-
lums, deaf and dumb asylums. tuber
cOlosis colonies. normal schools and
educational institutions, and other
state buildings, not including the state
capitol building, the sum Of IS, l46,-

During the two biennial years in
which Jim Ferguson was governor the
state spent S7,6O6,OO0 for the same
purposes. During my administration
the state has spent for tine same pur-
poses S3,719,0O0 which added to the
Jim Ferguson administration is more
than 81 100000 for the building pro-
gram as against a little over 5000

other governors in Texas combined.
and this was done without any great

crease in taxes during my administra-
ton.
