1t is stated that what is one Of the very largest
retail dry goods housesin New York dates back its
success to the shrewdness of the proprietor in selling
for % cents what other dealers asked q dollar for.
People focked there to the odd penny, and the
result an enormous trade
1t Is an act of wisdom to be careful Of the odd penny
In buying, don't part with your money unless you
think you getting full value. There ar but few
people who good judges of clothing Just because
garment looks well that isn't evidence that it will
wear well. When buying clothing it Is both wisdom
and safety to buy at place where you only get the
lowest prices, but also welLmade garments of good,
reliable material
1t Is the proud boast Of Aders Ten Per Cent Cloth
ing House that it keeps nothing but reliable goods
We are as careful of the making as we are OF the
quality of the goods, and, In fact, try to give to
every customer the best possible value for his money
There are different qualities Of clothing We sell
the sort that gives good and good satisfaction
We are satisfied with very small profit, because low
prices bring rapid sales. We try to do even better
than we promise, because by so doing we at once
secure the good will of all our patrons and one
delighted customer can send us more trade than q
dozen advertisements will bring.

The Northwest; We have faith that
a great future Is close ahead for the
remarkable water power Of the DalIes
Of the St. Louis river, west of Supe-
rior. The power furnished by the
Falls Of st. Anthony is already fully
employed, and this fact seems to put
a blr 10 the further extension of the
vast milling industries OF Minneapolis
Dakota's wheat surplus, however, IS
going to increase year by year. If it
is 10 be largely manufactured into
flour, 4 natural point for mills would
seem to be on the road the grain takes
10 reach Lake Superior. The numer-
GUS falls and rapids Of the St. Louis,
few miles from Duluth and Supe-
rior, would furnish power enough for
a score of mills, and their product of
flour would find cheap water transpor-
tation near at band to seaboard mar
kets.

"A gentleman of Superior writes

would not feel pricked by the Inter

them who during many years stuck to
the place under the most trying cir
cumstances, and by simply living
there kept it in existence. They have
not made city Of it because fate and
nature were against them, but when
Superior's time shall come, and come
it most certainly will, the eminent
services of some Of these men will be
recognized. For the rest, Superior

fattening purposes IS a present to the
soil Of this country-is a something
given to the soil which has not been
taken from it. Nothing can be more
complacent than the dogmatie asser-
ton of certain agricultural writers
that because the secondary produce Of
grain, that Is beef, is less bulky and
heavy than the grain. This is a theory
that will only pass muster with those
who believe that climatic conditions
counts for nothing in the operations
of natural chemistry, and who believe
that very delicate and destructive
commodity such as meat will with
stand the effect Of long journeys on
land and sea equally as well as such
an lmperishable commodity as grain.
But as this is important, let us exam
Inc the position a little more closely.
Is it 50 much cheaper to send the beet
than the food that makes that beef?
Now, this years experience shows me
that 1T Superior in feeding cattle Of
good quality forty bushels Of mixed
grain in the form Of meal, and lO0Jtb.

ing the mixture at forty pounds to
the bushel, the grain and hay together
will weigh 2J00ib. Which, then. is
cheaper, to send 4 pound Of beef to
Liverpool or ten pounds Of grain?
Now, the cost in refrigerator ears, ic-
ing, handling, from, say Fargo to
New York to Liverpool, would be, for
beef about Gl2 per ton that IS ID.
per pound-whcreaa the rate on a ton
Of grain IS Bis; that is 10 say, it costs

SAN FRANcIsco, Jan. 2s.-Anxiety
over the non arrival of the steamer San
Pablo at Yokohama is increasing. 1t is
now out forty days The vessel belongs
to the Oriental Occidental Steamship
company and is insured for $450, 900. 1t
had five cabin passengers, 900 Chinese re-
turning home for their new year and $500
900 for its treasure. The crew, including
officers, number fifty three. The excite
ment in Chinatown is unusually great
owing to the great number of Chinese and
the money aboard. The officers of the
company still say there is no cause for
anxiety, and ascribe the delay to an acct
dent to the machinery. Other steamers
have been out longer than the San Pablo.
