Worth a Thought

1t is safe to assert that
there isn't day passes but
hundreds OF dollars, to say
the least, are expended in
this city for furniture and
house decorations. If not
expended judiciously, then
poorly spent, and if not
disbursed in the light of all
possible economy then not
expended judiciously. The
papers contain daily coun-
sci of the best prudence,
and this house is among the
rest In saving suggestions. {"
But it takes much and fire.

some minds and often the
most forcible kind of logic.
Yet sometimes a gentle hint
will kindle productive re-
Election, and that is the hint
we here aim to lmpart.
Worth a thought? Yes,
1t is worth a long, large
thought that whether you
are buying strictly season
able goods, such as Baby
Carriages, Refrigerators,
Water Coolers, Bed Cano-
pies, Lace Curtains, Gauze
Hangings, &c, or whether
you would be induced to
invest in Furniture, Car

ample considerations OF

indelibly upon your mind
the fact that as ample as is

GALVESTON, Tex, Special.-The national
wool growers convention met here to-day
and adopted the following resolutions:
4 That an amendment to the Mckinley bill
should be made by the senate which shall pro
vide substantially that all FOREIGN woods having
any cross Or admiXture of Merino or English
blood shall be classified so as to pay duties i'm
posed upon Class or Class 2, wools according
to the nature of CROSS or admixture and that
the secretary of the treasury shall be required
to remove all samples now in custom houses OF
the United States for the purpose of CLASSIFYING
foreign woods for duty, substituting new samples
in accordance with the principles above stated:
also that paragraph 3S3 in the Mckinley bill be
amended by striking out proviso contained
therein and that paragraph Cos be changed by
striking out the words "Russian camel" that
We earnestly recommend that any further
changes that may be made in the Mckinley bill
shall be only such will give to the wool grow
ers OF the United States protection on wool as
grown by American fockmasters; that we pro-
test emphatieally against any law that will, in
terms or by implication, permit wool to be i'm
ported i'll any other than it's natural condition

secured in unbroken fieeoes- -.
Another resolution was adopted depre-
eating the defamation of eve flocks west of

instead of holding them tor breeders The
present officers were reelected. The con-
vention meets next year in Kansas City.
