Take of thought of self one part,
two parts of thought for family,
equal parts of common sense and
broad intelligence; a large part
of the sense of the fitness of
things; a heaping measure of liv-
ing above what your neighbors
think of you, and twice the quan-
tity of keeping within ,your in-
come; a sprinkling of what tends
to refinement and beauty, stirred
thick with Christian principle of
the true brand and set-to-rise.

a grand sight.
Mr. KenworJhy says that the

thinks his certainty of freedom,
independence and equality, in
! fact pays tribute foi; his own and
his fam.ily's privilege to eat, dHhk
wo.Is are mostly within the city :.lluj
limits. Wells which have been
drilled east and north of town
: have proved to be dry holes; and
it is the opinion of oil men there
that the same results will follow
drilling to the west of town.
