We heard a man say that "times are
good now l never saw work pIentier and
everything demands good price," We
asked if 40 cents was a good price for
wheat. mo, wheat is the only thing that
is low. PORK and beef and sheep are all
high" We then asked if he was pro-
ducing those articles which demanded a
high price, bis reply was "No raise
wheat and work out by days work."
And times are lots better when the only
thing man has to sell! must be pro.
duced for lees than % cents day. Well

More Century Questions.

Answer: December S1st OF the year /
@: What was the last day of the frst

A: December 3lst of the year 10.
@: What was the last day OF the first
century,
A: December 31st of the year 100.
@: What was (or will be) the last
day of the nineteenth century?
A. December 3lst OF the year 1900.
l respectfully submit the self evident
proposition that each one of the above
answers must be correct or else each one
must be incorrect. Ii dec 3lst of the
year 1900 is not the last day of the nine
teenth century, then Dec. 3lst of the
year 100 could not have been the last
day of the first century, and Dec. Slst of
the year 10 could not have been the last
day OF the first decade, and Dec, 3lst OF
the year could not have been the last
day OF the first year. Respectfully,
