Proverbs.

Excellent speech becometh not a
fool; much less do lying lips prince.
A wrathful man stirreth up strife;
but he that is slow to anger appeas-
eth strife.
A wicked man taketh e gift out
Of the bosom to perverr the ways Of
judgment.
A reproof entereth more into a
wise man than a hundred stripes
into a fool.
Say not thou, I will rccompense
evil; but wait on the Lord, and he
shall save thee.
A wicked doer giveth, heed to
false lips; and liar giveth ear to a
naughty tongue.
The sluggard is wiser in his own
conceit than seven men that can
render reason.
A man that beaTeth false witness
agoinst his neigbor is a maui, and a
sword and sharp arrow.
The curse of the Lord is in the
house Of the wicked; but he blesseth
the habitatlon of the just.
An ungodly witness scorneth
Judgment, and the mouth OF the
wicked deyoureth iniquity.
Whose is partner with a thief
hateth his own soul; he heareth
cursiug, and bewrayeth it not.
Confidence in an unfaithful man
in time of trouble is like a broken
tooth, aud foot out of joins.
The way of the wicked is an abom
lnation unto the Lord; but he loveth
him that followetb after righteous
ness.

Big Land Deal in Shreveport.

Last Thursday Hon. Andrew Currie
sold to Mr. Howard Cole 100 acres of
Shreveport suburban land, located
north of the Kansas City, Shreveport
and Gulf railway. Mr.. Cole repre-
ssnts syndicate of Houston, Texas,
capitalists, aud to the query by the
local editer of the "Judge," what
do yonr people propose to do with
this tract ?" replied:
"Our purposo is to develop and
improve it. We bought it purely as
an investment, Or if you prefer the
word, as speculation. We have un-
bounded faith in the future of Shreve-
port, and shall make this q most
beautiful and attractive suburban ad.
dition. We shall subdiyide it into
lots of all sizes. shall make fine
streets and sidewalks, shall have a
street car line running all through it,
and shall soon have homes in course
of erection all over the tract. A num-
Der of the largest and choicest lots
are already bargained for by Houston
and Fort Worth people, some of
whom are buying upon speculation,
and others with q view to locating.
We shall return here early next week
to begin active work. Fully twenty
five people will come here with US at
once. We shall prosecute the work
of developing and improving as rap
idly as money and men can do it..
To be sure we would not invest such
sums of money if we did not have i'm
plicit faith in the future of Shreve-
port. The success of our investment
is dependent upon the growth and
prosperity OF Shreveport. We inves-
tigated the situation very thoroughly
before we embarked in this enter
prise, and are now fully identified
with your city. We stand ready to
aid in any and everything that looks
to the welfare and prosperity OF
Shreveport We are not proposing
to create any boom, and are not
boomers. We see unmistakable evil
dence of steady growth and are fully
satisfied that real estate values will
enhance"
