A RECIPE FOR SUCCESS,

How is Ill it I have pr0spered SOP How is it
Throughout the hull OF my ka-reer Jest
one long streak of luck?
Intelltunce, young man; that's all. I rea-
son an reflect
It's jest intelli1unce an brains an
straightout intellec'.
Wen I git up I'm auus sure to dress me
right foot first,
Or put my drawers on wrong side out, Or
hev my vest reversed,
For them are signs you'll hev good luck:
an dedicated man
Knows all them signs, an shapes hie life
on q consistent plan.
I've strewed oil hoss-shoes down the road
for somethin' like a mile.
An go out an hunt 'em up a-every little
while;
But II you fin a hoss-shoe, wy, you're
sure TO prosper then:
A fac that is familyer TO dedicated men.
A cats tail p'intin' lords the fire. It is an
awful sign:
But hev counteracted it with every cat
Of mine:
II my cats tail should pint that way 1t
wouldn't give me scares;
ia go in my back entry then an simply
fall upstairs.
It's r good sign TO fall upstairs, an coun-
teracts the cat:
An that's the way shape my life. I bal
ance this with that
see four crows-bad sign. I know-might
scare a man that's holder;
But jest wait an see the moon rise over
my right shoulder.
The moon II counteracts the crows: one
balances the other,
For one is jest wiped out, you see. an
Cancelled of by t'other.
I hear a dog howl in the night: 1t don't
give ME no dread,
I balance IL by gittin out the right-han'
side the bed.
An so I've prospered all my life. by jest
a little pains,
lntellijunce. young man, that's all, an
inteiec' an brains.
IT'S ignorance that makes men fail. An
wis3om-noth!n less
Enlightenment an knowledge, sir, can
bring man success.

out his open hand,
Though quite a handsome fellow, ye. Ia

And though he offers me his hand, the

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Oct. 26.-The stock mark
ct showed a tendency to fall into quie-
tude again to-day as though in sym
pathy with the dizziness and uncertain
ty on foreign exchanges. But there was
"A quiet absorption of standard stocks all
through the list, generally firm tone
and marked strength in a few cases, so
that the average of prices is quite ma
terially lifted as the result of the days
trading. The reactionary tendency in
the wheat market, the falling off III the
export demand for both wheat and
corn, and the weakness in the foreign
grain markets were apparently without
effect. The reason for the apparently
illogical movements for the past few
DAYS obviously is that the market is en-.
tirely in the hands of professional trad
crs without any participation by the
outside public

tiyities for the last few days having

New York, Oct. 2G.-The continuance
of mail orders in fair quantities III the
dry goods market has kept the average
of sales up to a high standard. De
pendence upon the coming of buyers INTO
the market is precarious. To-day, for
instance, the operations of this class,
influenced no doubt, by the unpleasant
weather, were on Il small basis. Nearby
operators showed no special activity.
The mail orders are now for larger
amounts than has hitherto been the case.
COTTON.
New York. Oct. 26-The entire scope
of to-day's market was a matter of only
4 points. The general policy of traders
was to go slow and watch the movement
of the crop. The more immediate influ-
ences were the Liverpool cables, which
showed an unsatisfactory response to
the bullish overtures made by our mar
ket yesterday: these caused decline
of | to = points on the opening call,
which finished with the market steady
in tone. The bear contingent was dis
posed to be conservative ON account Of
the continued lower temperature. fol-
lowing the heavy killing frosts reported
last night. The unsettled affairs in
foreign political circles was another
drawback to trade. The fact that the
stock market was in better shape failed
to stimulate speculation in cotton. Sup
plementing yesterdays heavy exports Of
cotton were claims of continued export
interest i'll the Southern spot markets,
and prospect for a continued outward
movement limited only by the capacity
of the ocean tonnage. Notwithstanding
the high freight rates prevailing AS
compared with yesterdays closing fig
ures to-day's market mt the lowest point
showed a decline of two to four points.
The market was finally steady at a net
loss of two to three points.

When asked for an explanation, the

morning and paid for q room at some
house IL advance for the week. He said
they forgot to take the number and
street and lad looked for three hours for
the house and then given it up. They
had not the slightest idea where the
place was.
