Revs. Brown and Rice have closed the revival meetings at Alamo. No conversions are reported but the members were revived considerably judging from reports.

The Good Templars novel is ended, the last chapter being written by Prof. Cunningham. It did not end as the majority wanted it to. Novels never do. The hero married a stranger and after a lapse of ten years he saw the heroine, his old "flame," and now an old maid, only one sentence escaped him, "Heavens, what an escape." Thus ended a story that lived and died without a name.

Society in this otherwise peaceable village is quite divided. There is "The Bachelors' Club," "The Only Literary Club," "The Ananias," "The Dorcas Sewing Circle" and the Goou Templars. The above are separated from each other by chasms wide and deep and a member of one of these might as well try to swim the Missouri when the ice is breaking up as to gain access to one df the others. The societies all attend the same church and aim to meet about once a week to discuss current events and some of them to discuss the affairs of other people.

Our business is not making political speeches nor writing political essays. We do not print morals nor say "I told you so." Onr business is selling Dry Goodsiand Notions as cheaply as we can many times for less than other merchants will sell them to you, and always with the view of making as much money from our business as possible. We have just completed the most prosperous year of our business life. We have sold goods with a smaller percentage of profit than in .ormer years, but have increased our sales so much without increase of capital, or in other words turned our stock so man) more times that our net profits are more than an)' previous year. This vast output of merchandise has enabled us to show only the latest styles and sell them quickly without the necessity of carrying over large quantities to be sold at or below cost at the end of the season. In fact we make money on almost every item even in our Cut Price Sales, because many of the grandest bargains we have offered were bought for the occasion for cash at prices that would enable us to sell them for less than our competitors and yet make us a very good profit. This is our idea of profitable merchandising.

Perhaps you have noticed we have always given good reasons for every special offering we have made. Circumstances have again made it possible for us to offer some grand bargains in fact the best bargains we have ever offered. Some of the items are from our regular stock and these we sell at cost or less that they may conform to others that we have just bought for this sale.
