"The mirror robs us of our expression
and of our coloring, and expression anl
color are to the face’s beauty what the
legs are to the figure.
"First, our expression. When We
look int » a mirror our eyes take on a
glassy stare and our mouths a curious
and sad droop. Really, we never looi
like that save when wo are soing to

"Then our coloring. All mirrors have

"A great navy is the best insurance

war that the United States can pur-
chase it will stand for peace, while
at the same time it will be a mighty

Problem of Floriculture.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Of the 8,000 or 9,000 florists in thls
country about half are wondering how
soon the skill of the grower will be
able to produce chrysanthemums and
dahlias with an agreeable perfume.
Each flower has a scent of its own,
the chrysanthemum having something
of the odor of its leaf, which to many
persons is disagreeable, while the
dahlia has a distinctly unpleasant odor.
There are probably 100 specialists in
floriculture now spending money and
time in the effort tn secure the desired
result, but none of them. as yet has
succeeded.
That they will in time cannot be
doubted, for judging from what has
been done with other flowers, it is im-
possible not to believe'that somebody
will lilt on the secret, and when ho
’does he will be the luckiest man in
the business, for fame and fortune are
waiting for him.
Florists say that the perfumed
chrysanthemum will come about the
time of the blue rose, and, perhaps it
will, for the blue rose is just now be-
ing as much sought as the secret of
the chrysauthemum's perfume, but

'There, are those who will criticise ’
the buyers of large amounts of insur- 1
ancet for protesting against the meas- 1
ure, for we are less interested th it
than any one else. We are in a posl- J
tion to go outside the state and get
our Insurance at satisfactory rates It
we want it, and we will do It if this
obnoxious measure becomes a Jaw But
that would leave the burden of the
higher rates entirely upon the smaller
consumer of insurance, and when the
rates become prohibitive he will have
to leave his property unprotected,
which would be a decided economic
loss to the state. We are entering the
fight for the principle that is involved

Hill Was Protested.
I ‘Mr. Dove in his defense of the bill
says that no protests were made until
it had passed both houses in this he
is mistaken I made a vigorous pro-
test. and I know of large numbers of
others who did so. The iocs! insur-
ance agents gave no opportunity for a
hearing by the users of insurance, but
on the other hand the insurance agents
wrote numerous letter in behalf of
the bill, and it was passed without the
people of the state at large knowing
what was really in the measure.
"One of Vic peculiar features of the
bill is that the insurance companies
will pay the bills for maintaining the
bureau. Now, with the companies ap-
pointing the members of the bureau
and then paying, the expenses of it.
too. it is easy to see whom the bureau
will serve. What would the people of
Texas say if the members of the rail-
road commission were appointed by
the railroads and drew their salaries
from a fund provided by,the rot ds in-
stead of the state treasurer? Mr Love
says the bill is a good one because it
is practically the same bill as was re-
cently passed by the Kansas legisla-
ture. But I should like to ask if the
people of Texas are ready to copy every
law on the Kansas statute book with-
out question?
"The commissioner of insurance also
says that under the present law the
big consumers of insurance beat the
J prices of Insurance down to the figure
that suits them, and that the small

that tle cause of peace would hav•
been advanced eleven years ago if the
Unitedstates had possessed eight addi-
tional Tattleships of the Oregon and
Iowa < ass. Such ships at a cost of
$50,000 '00 he .implied might have
averted the war with Spain which cost
more t an $500,000,000.
"Today is the era of peace,' said Mr. |
Meyer. "Peace societies, international
tribunals, and the. numerous confer-
ences that, have been held during tho
past few years all emphasize this fact,
and I m one of those who fully ap-
preciat the value of these organiza-
tions Ml assemblies." Yet, he declared.
It was mportant that the people of the
United States should not forget that
while sch peace societies were a pow-
er. the! chief value was as a formative
influen '. to stimulate sentiment and

horrors f war. “The really effective
and hop rable method of avoiding war.”
he contended, "is to be prepared for
war by he possession of an efficient,
up to ite and thoroughly , equipped
fleet of hattleships, both on the Atlan-
tie and he Pacific oceans" He spoke
nf the efficiency of the globe-circlip a
Atlantic fleet and argued that it should
not be divided between the Atlantic
and th<l Pacific, "but our naval arma-
