Suggestions as to Name.
i,The superintendent recommends for
th €,8ood ot the unfortunates and the
feelings of their families to change
the official name of the institution to
the North Texas Hospital. It is well
known that more or less superstitious
prejudice exists against the terms
insane,’ and "lunatic asylum." These
institutions are the only character of
hospital owned by the state, hence
there could be no confusion created
by such change and the elimination of
those objectionable features.
The law passed by the last legisla-
ture abolishing public trials for lunacy
is commended as a humane act.

j condition than now, and’ the general
gram.” We advertise because it
pays us, and not that we are par-
ticularly in love with the news-
paper man or that he has a
"cinch" on us.
It is evident that we are mu-
tually benefited in this voluntary
act, else the poor editor would
have to write pretry for a living.
That would surely be tough on
the poor scribe, and equally tough
if his wife is 11 scholar of the
“School of Credit."
You can learn nothing without
investigation, and can acquire
nothing without efTort«.
When you find that which you
want, you’ll have it if it takes the
hide off. When you find the girl
of your choice and she knows how
to “hold you up a tree,” you are
the more anxious to “call iu the
parson.”
And if she sees “that which she
wants,” she will have it if it has
to be “charged.”
That’s why we advise you in all
sincerity to study and cultivate
“cash habits.”
They are the best because the
cheapest.
This week let us show you what
CASH is doing to “the man that
charges,”
This significant statement is made
with reference to’ the department of
the state purchasing agent.
"For three years next prior to the
operation of the purchasing agent law
the average number of patients in this
institution was 987, and the average
cost per capita per annum for mainte-
nance for same time was 8130.31. For
the past three years, under the pur-
chasing agent system, the average
number of patients in the institution
was 1257, and the average cost per
capita per annum for maintenance for
the same time was $136 77. making a
difference per capita of 46 cents. That
say, the. cost of maintenance in
this institution for three years under
the purchasing agent system has
been 46 cents per capita more than
for the same length of time prior to
the said law’s going into effect, or
about 1578 more per annum.

A MA IT p Associated with a good repulalion is part of man’s inheritance. A
I. --yE.E. name associated with good merchandise is part of one’s capital.
You value YOUR NAME as an inheritance, and Ihe law makes you its sole owner, provided
yours is not “John Smith."
Your dealer should be a man who calls merchandise by its name.
All wool should not be a collon mixture, else it should be called "baum" wool. Half silk
should nol be called all silk, bul flatly "half silk.” All Iinan should not be called linen,
bul "union linen.”
The commercial world is essentially honest—the dishonest Is Ihe trickster who. in a mad
ellort for business, allempls to mislead his patrons. II was old Abe Lincoln who said,
‘You can humbug some people all the lime, all the people sometimes, but you can nol hum-
bug all the people all the lime.” Barnum evidently was dreaming of this old mariyr when
he said, "the people want to be humbugged.” And he proceedei to paint his elephant
While. Lincoln spoke in "senliments," Barnum In “dollars and cents." You may measure
this for what it is worth and draw your own conclusions.
You are inlerested in that which concerns you most, and we are likewise interested in a
mutual friendship and your good will. You can gel along without us, but we can nol get
along,wilhout you, and thal’s why we are trying so hard to "please all the people all Ihe
lime. While we are here we expect to keep up lively times at the old stand, and if you
fail to "lake in all our free exhibits in "merchandise acrobatic feats,” blame no one but
yourself when Ihe lime limit shall have expired.
THIS WEEK will find us guile in a "slir." We are quoting you WARM NUMBERS in
our several departments, and if the "ring” suits your fancy we invite you cordially to look
at “the goods.” You will find everything "just so.”

world’s strongest shoe for chil-

Representative Love Says Good Things
of the Travis Member.
Hon. Thomas B. Love, who was one J
of the members of the last legislature «,
that visited Austin yesterday, ex-
pressed his appreciation of the cour-
tesies extended the members in the
follwing language:
"The members of the legislature who
were in the city yesterday have been
royally entertained by our fellow mem-
ber from Travis county, Hou, John L.
Peeler. This, however, is only another
manifestation of the marked courtesy
and genuine hospitality which he has
lavished upon us all, both during the
session and when any of us have hap-
pened to pome to Austin since adjourn-
ment. Austin and Travis county are
fortunate indeed in having him for a
citizen and representative.’'
