1t seems to have entirely escaped mo-

American ambassador to London, who
insisted some years ago upon the recall
Of Lord S~ackyille, the then British min

has only to be mentioned to be remem-

should have sanctioned the appointment
of Mr.. Bayard under these circum-

what too lengthy speeches, Mr.. Bayard

Ii you have been renting a
house in the city, stop a moment
and think how much you have
paid out in rent, and if you have
been renting long you will soon
figure out that you have paid out
enough for rent to build as good

your own. Why not put this
money intoa

in which you will feel a natural
pride, and have a permanent and
pleasant home for yourself and
family in your declining years. A
little energy on your part will do
it. Start at once by

If you are renting a farm figure
a moment what you + paying out
annually for rent and how soon
this rental would buy a farm here.
What you pay out in rent in two
or three years in Iowa or Illinois
would buy equally as good a farm
in South Dakota. Stop renting
and come out and buy a farm OF
your own and feel the independ-
ence Of
A HOME.
Don't delay this until next year, as
very much advanced prices for
South Dakota real estate, which is
sure to come, will 500 prevent you
from buying, and your opportuni-
ty of a lifetime win be gone.

BENEvoLENCE without love has NO
more heart in it than an auction
block.
LOVE is the most precious of all
things, because it can only come from
God.
WHERE are you going to have your
good things? In this world or in the
next?
The devil generally feels sure of
catching big fish when he bats with
money.
If you are praying for growth in
grace, don't keep your hands in your
pockets.
CHRIsT's way of reaching the
masses was to go to them with love in
your heart.
A LIE always has a dagger in it's
hand, no matter how we'll meaning it
may look
The man who sells Christ cannot
buy anything but his own grave with
the money.
SOME men are bound in the devils
ropes because they didn't try to break
his threads.
NOTHING but knowing God can
ever make a man we'll acquainted
with himself
THE devil has thousand success
full ways Of meeting eloquence, but he
can't stand before love.
THE only kno Wedge that will keep
US from sin in the midst of sin is the
knowledge of Gods love.
GOD sometimes. keeps Caleb and
a Joshua waiting, but he always gets
them into the Promised Land.
PEOPLE can be found In every
church who are willing to do every
thing for God except love him.
FAITH without love is omnipotence
without heart 1t is the power of
Jove with the blindness of bat.
THE devil has both arms around
the man who feels confident that
moderate drinking won't hurt him.
CALL the devil by his right name
and there are men in every crowd who
will claim that you have insulted
them.
A CHRISTIAN ought to be just as
religious when he Is buying and SELL
ing as he is when he is singing hymns
in church.
IT won't do for the man who claims
to love the Lord on Sunday to be
found selling goods with a short yard
stick on Monday.

The Coptic patriarch Of Alexandria
is never allowed to sleep more than
fifteen minutes at any one time, and
if the attendant should allow the
holy ones nap to extend beyond the

of each quarter hour the patriarch
arises and spreads his rug upon the
