People, who marry in haste, some
times repent in Dakota
The bone Of contention is generally
picked pretty clean.
The beauty we see without is but n
reflection of that within.
Lives of great men oft remind us
that there are book agents.

Fat hogs command such good price
on the market at present that we are
tempted to fatten our yearling sOws
and convert them into cash. If we do
we are apt to make serious mistake.
Hogs are high, but they are apt to be
high this time next year. Ffty-cent
| corn means 5-cent hogs or better. High
priced corn is causing shrinkage in
the number of hogs raised and fed.
This decrease in the supply will also
tend higher hog prices.

Mr.. Brown gave us three lectures,
and has left us to mediate upon his
hundreds of terse sayings; many of
them lecture in itself. There is no
doubt of his brilliancy or of his mag
netism. He talked evenly and quietly :;
no bluster; no spread-eagleism. He
kept grip on every one; n grip no one
could loosen. Mr. Brown is not only
distinguished rs a writer of quaint
philosophy, but he is n brilliant speak
er Ms well. Not brilliant as n rhetori-
cian, but rs clear and forceful think
er, whose every sentence is laden with
truth and instruction. The unique.
ness of his character flashes all through
his lectures, and his quaint humor and
philosophy mark all he says.-"Re-

will be at the Teachers Institute Thurs
day evening, Nov. IS, 1901.
