laughter and thoughtful brows the

conundum, and the answer to the
first was that he "Aster" of course,
and there were many exclamations of
"Obs!" "How stupid," etc., among the
married ladies and all seemed sudden-

that was being prepared for him,
and slipped in on another train, and
took an auto hurriedy for the hote1.
Colonel Garrett said ha thought he
was riding in p. flying machine when
Bob Francis pulshed him Into the

were such things as taxys in Tyler.
Of course it is different in Chicago.

The city council met in regular
monthly session yesterday afternoon.
Af'er transacting regular routine
business, the mater of creating a
park out of the 'vbllc square came
up for consld' * U'
A committee tú some fifteen or
twenty citizens presented a petition
bearing 'no signatures of some 700
citizens was presented, asking that
the council set aside the entire
court house square to the pavement
for a city park.
Remarks were made favoring the
proposition by Mr. John Durst, Dr.
Albert Wbldert and Mrs. S. A. Lind-
sey. It was urged that a park ns
proposed would enhance the value of
property and draw trade to Tyler.
A petition containing the names of
67 signatures, requesting that only
part of the square be set aside by the
council, and talks were made favor-
ing this plan by Messrs. J. Lipstato
and Burnet Wadel. They suggested
that trade would be driven away from
the city if the entire square was con-
verted into a park and for this and
other reasons they thought it would
To harm to the city.
After much discussion, pro and con,
the mater was passed over by the
council appointing a park commis-
sion composed of three aldermen
who will have the matter under con-
sideration and report at a svbsequent
meeting of the council The follow-
ing resolution was presented for the
consideration of the council:
Whereas, There has been presente!
to this body, a petition, from a num-
ber of citizens, asking the city coun-
cil, to set apart all the public square,
not now used as streets, fo- a park
and
Whereas, A counter petition com-
ing from another part of our citizen-
ship, petitioning the council to take
no action, that will prevent the said
public square, from being used- in
he future, ns ,'n ihe past, as a mart
of trade and a wagon yard, now.
Therefore, be it. resolved by the city
council, that these petitions be not
considered, but in order to settle
this question and as faT as poasibe
to meet ihe wishes of all the people
concerned, the city council of ths
city of Tyler, makes this proposition

IKE MAGAZINE OF THE YEAH
The year 1910 will be a record-
breaker for the Cosmopoli-
tan Magazine.
The past has set the pace and
made a standard that would sat-
isfy most magazine makers.
Cosmopolitan must and will
surpass its past, however hard
that may be. When 1910 rolls
round to its end Cosmopol -
tan will have bettered its old
record and set up another fresh
standard of excellence to beat.
If you love good fiction, no mat-
ter what other magazines you
read, you can't afford to miss
a single issue of Cosmopoli-
tan for the coming year. When
we talk of good fiction we mean
the top-notch out-put of the top-
notch story tellers, and not the
dreamy drivel that passes for
fiction.
The foremost writers in America
will be represented in the Cos-
mopolitan during the year—
strong, virile writers who will
deal with questions of vital in-
terest to the American public.
There will be something in every
number for each member of your
family-boy, girl, man and wo-
man.
