POINTED

Proof OF tho political plum tree is the
grating.
It's m exceptionally poor rule that re-
fuses tn work either way.
Necessity knows nc law, but mat is
no excuse for a lawyer.
Riches have w~ings-and rich men may
eventually have fying-machinos.
Most women ave II" visible means of
support-eXcept on rainy days.
Wise men make hay while the sun
shines. but fools make it by gaslight.
A barber isn't necessarily an artist be-
cause he illustrates his stories with cuts.
Many a man is so crooked that his mea-
sure can only be taken with n corkscrew.
Nearly every man has n small streak
Of genius and a large streak of yellow
In him.
Few women are as good as they look
and few men are as bad as they pretend
to be.
From your ncighbor's point of view
our phenomenal success is merely a case
OF bullhead luck.
Many a man who processes to owe his
enemies more than balances the account
by hating his friends.
When a girl falls I'm love she losses hcI
heart. and il some man doesn't find il
she proceeds to lose her head.
No man living can give the details OF
n wedding ceremony. but every woman
present can tell what every other woman
had on. -Chicago.

Evidences Of Conservation

Evidences Of Conservatism
New York. Oct. OR. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade tomorrow Will
say:
Activity broadens into commercial chan
ncls and confidence expands because of
the many evidences of conservatism. Bust
ness is brisk and improving. Manufac-
turers receive liberal orders for remote
deliveries. Current retail trade is not
e1ualling expectations. but this Is attrib-
uted to mild autumn weather. and pre-
parations for the future are undiminished
Especially good news is received from
the iron and steel enters. particularly In
structural and railway departments.
Scarcely any labor disputes are noted.
Much complaint is heard regarding freight
b%lcckadcs. Statistics OF foreign trade
for the United States eclipsd all Septem-
Der records last month. Another splen-
did exhibit Is assured for October.
Evidences OF conservatism are moro nu-
merous in the primary markets for tex
tile fabrics. Buyers have produced about
the usual amount of business for future
delivery.
Failures this week numbered 23 in tho
United States. against 2l5 last year.
