SAYINGS BY JOSH BILLINGS.

There are but few men who are as foolish
as they are thought to be, and less who are
as wise as they think they are.
ut is only a etep from the sublime to the
ridiculous" and it is only the very wise
who can take the step and get back again.
The hardest dollar for man to get is too
often the one he needs the most.
The man who dies the richest is the one
who leaves the least here and takes the
most with him.
True philosophy, like true philanthropy,
is work of deeds, not words.
When l see man who is over.anxious
he is not very certain about it himself.
thank God that there is one thing that
money won't buy, and that is the wag Of q
dogs tail.
No man ever became great simply by
accldent accident has often opened the
way.
The multitude gaze at the epaulets, the
few at the man who wears them.
Young man, what you get in this world
you have got to win, and mankind are hard
taskmasters and slow pay.
The great mistake that many folks make
is, they are continually betting on tomorrow
and letting to-day go by default.
Most Of us are happy not so much be-
cause we have got horse and buggy to ride
in, as because the other fellow has got to go
on foot.
Is is easy enough to learn hy experience,
but to profit by it is what's the matter.-M.

Most farmers, even thopoorest of them,
have desire for trees, plants and flowers.
They enjoy we'll kept place. 1t Is very
rare thing to find front yard without some
attempts at ornamentation. The schrubs
and fower.beds and the grass are often neg

casionally done at odd intervals. A small
spot is dug in the grass for single rose
bush, another is for small spirGa, one for
lilac, another for peonY, and perhaps
several others, two or three feet across, for
small beds of flowers. In this manner the
grass plot is broken up and frittered away
scattered all over the yard. Except, per.
haps, for few vines, we should set plants

for unpretending yards by farm houses, we

beds cut out of turf seldom thrive well, be-
cause the grass roots run down beneath the

them of moisture and nourishment. In the

The stranger turned around to the crowd,
noted the sudden increase of interest In

liars, come forward"
Not foot moved.
"Gentlemen, continued the stranger in q
plaintive tone, don't be backward, julips
wait for all. Every one of you who
is know as liar, will please stand up."
Not man stood. The strangers face be-
trayed keen disappointment as he ordered a
rousing big mint" for himself, and not a
word was spoken in the place while he
slowly slipped the cooling liquid through a
straw. When he had finished he wiped
his mouth and said

All those who have heretofore acted, or now
desire to affiliate, with the republican party of
Dakota, are cordially invited to meet in their re-
spective counties and select delegates to repre-
sent them in this convention
The attention of republicans is called to the
necessity of nominating candidates for district
attorney in Retrospective districts and as there
are no district committees, the territorial COM
mittee suggests that the delegates to this conven-
ton be authorized to appoint committees for
their respective districts, to call conventions for
this purpose.
