sam JONES CREED.

Here are some of the pithy sayings
of Sam Jones:
God can't elect any man unless he is
a candidate.
The biggest fool is the woman who
will act as barkeeper for her husband.
I'll wear garments made of wire be-
fore Til wear garments made at thirty
cents a dozen.
Every barroom is a recruiting office
for hell.
Sow whisky and your reap drunk
ards.
Christ won't stay in a house with
the cellar full of whisky.
Sow little parties and reap big ones.
Sow these and reap bathrooms. Sow
these and reap germans. and from
these reap spider legged dudes and
from these you'll reap a half thimble-
full of calves foot jelly.
There is such thing as the race
running out in dudes, and God knows
am glad of it.
The most demoralizing and damning
thing and the most insidious is the city
club.
I have seen men converted from the
barroom and everything else. but
never, never have seen man con-
verted from a club.
l never saw a first-class billiard
player who was worth the powder and
lead to kill him.
What is a town woman but a coun-
try woman with Sunday clothes on?
I'd rather be dead than be in fash
ion.
The more bent, mashed and warped
the lady's hat is the more fashionable
it is.
Shall / ask your little dudes and du-
dimes how to preach the gospel?
little party is only big one with
short skirts on.
Religion don't help a fellow to quit
his meanness, but it helps him to stay
quit
Doubts are but the children of sin.
Repentance is quitting your mean
ness.
I'm not muddy physician, and I am
not kin to any.
Infidelfty is nine-tenths mouth.
| Give your hearts to God and he will
comb the kinks out of your head.
An honest man who's seeking after
God is as sure of heaven as the man
who is on full tilt after glory.
| I've got as much respect for those
fellows with striped clothes as have
for you who hop around at every tar
of the DEVILS drum.
If ever my daughters cut off any OF
their skirts / don't want them to cut
ffrom the top.

country, J. ogden Armour has made

practical benevolenee whose wisdom is
quite beyond dispute. The agricultural

the nations life. have never been ac-

parison with other institutions of

Chicago, Oct. 1S.-Dullness was about

bushel. But the trade is so narrow,
and the outside public Indifferent to
the market that news alone cannot ad-
vance prices. One of the best-posted
authorities in the northwest estimates
the crop OF the two Dakotas and Min
nesota as only 10000. 600 bushels. far
below the government figures and
scarcely enough for seed and milling
purposes.
Early cables were also quoted a trifie
higher. Cash demand in this country
reported little better. Sales to the
seaboard. 10000 bushels. The market
closed steady, with very little change
from yesterday.
Corn-Stronger in the early trading
but narrowed down to dizziness later in
the day. Wet weather in the west and
southwest, interfering with the move
ment of the new crop. was assigned as
the reason for the early strength
