men who would disdain to take an ad-
vantage in trade, or do any other self

There are men who lead humble, un-
preteutious lives, and who, without
making it known TO the world, are do
ing vast amount Of good among their
fellow men.
And strange to say, these men lead
very happy lives, and. as a rule, very
successful lives. While the unprinci-
pied man may enjoy temporary success,
sooner or later he will suffer for his
lack of honesty. There are a thous-
and ways in which virtue avenges her.
self upon him. In one way or another
he gets his deserts. You have youth,
you are blessed with health Of mind

believe that what some do, all do, but

Put Life into Your Work.

A young mans interest and duty
both dictate that he should make
himself indispensable to his employers.
He should be SO industrious. PROMPT
and careful that the accident Of his
temporary absence should bo noticed
by his being missed. A young man
should make his employer his friend /,
by doing faithfully and minutely all
that is intrusted to him. 1t is great
mistake to be over-nice or fastidiOus
about work. Pitch in readily and
your willingness will be appreciated.
while the high toned" young man
who bubbles about what it is and
what it is not his place to do, will gee
the cold shoulder. There is a story
that George Washington onoe helped
roll log that one of his corporals
would not handle, and the Greatest
Emperor of Russia worked as ship
wright in England-to learn the tusiT
ness. That's just what you want to do.
Be energetic, look and act with alacrity
take an interest in your employer y
success, work as though the business
was your own and let your employer
know that he may place absolute re
lance in your word and on your net.
BE mindful have your mind on your
business because it is that which is
going to help you, not those outside
attractions which some of the boys"
are thinking about. Take n pleasure
in work; DO not 60 about it in list
less, formal manner, but with alacrity
and chcerfuluess, and remember that
while WORKING, thu fQrothers, you art
laying The foundation Of your own sue.

There are few books that can boast
Of as much immortality within space
of four hundred pages as is implied in
this little phrase, which has been pla-
carded on the bill boards, and called
into the ears of the public for the past
year or two. 1t is the one sen
tence which takes the courage COM
pletely out of youth, soaring its con-
science as with a red-hot iron. and per-
mitting despair to carry it off bodily
into the depths of crime.
"Oh they all do it; why should not
vou?" that is the suggestion. THAT
man lies and cheats, and will commit
any crime which the law does not
make dangerous. So it is with all Of
them. There is 10 use. in trying to be
different from other people" That is
the way the temptation comes to the
young man, thrown on the world with
little knowledge of its ways, and per-
haps shielded only by the indulgent
training of an over-fond mother.
"Peoplo are grossly immoral. Even
temperance advocates get drunk in
private; church deacons swiudle saw
ings banks; all you see of morality is
but surface show. Beneath there Is
concealed wickedness. You will find
you must follow the multitude" And
the youth, with the pleasures OF the
world held up before his glowing i'm
agination, and full Of bodily health,
plungos forthwith into what he be-
lieves to be "the world"
If the devil had concentrated all his
cunning, during the centuries which
have elapsed since his election from
Paradise, he could not have produced
more powerful argument with which
to conquer the soul of man than this,
They all do it,"
But young man listen. That SEN
tence is lie. As base and foul lie
as ever was conceived in the mind OF
man o. devil. They don't "all DO it"
There are thousands upon thousands
of good, pure men and women in this
world, bad as it may seem, who are
leading upright lives. They believe
in 4 Deity. and in the commands oi
virtue. and are going along with the
happiest results TO themselves ard
their ueighbcrs. There are men who
think that they we're put into this

a Solid Acre of s;rve,.-

One Of the most remarkable mines
in the California gulch is lead three
feet in thickness, the ore from which
yields from 240 to 2T0 ounces of silver
to the ton and Ikea coal bank in q
stratiication Of limestone, dipping
about 10 degrees. Two openings have
been made at points 900 feet and SUI
fcent ore is in sight to make millions
of the dollars Of our daddies." The
owners have gone far enough to know
that there is full acre of the ore in
one solid body, and some conception
may be formed of the amazing riches
of this discovery by brief calculation
Of its dimensions. A cubic foot
weighs TO pounds and asthe ore lies
II cubic feet make ton. There are
$4,000 square feet which with II cubic
feet to the ton, makes 10000 tons,
worth $3.50 per ton, or the enormous
value of $2,70O000, Tho Crescent is
another mine worked like n coal bed
the ore lying horizontally in the large
room that has been opened. the roof
being held up by heavy timbers, with
very stout caps and tugging poles. Tho
ore breasts from one loot to three and
four feet, and occasionally very fine
specimens of norm silver are found

Texas.
all do it.

Texas lies between the parallels of
25 degrees so minutes and 36 degrees
30 minutes, north latitude and longi.
tude 90 degrees 80 minutes, and 1O7
degrees west. 1t embraces a territory
of 274,365 square miles, or 1881
$40 acres, and is by far the largest
State of the Union. The following
comparison will give some idea of the
vast extent of this State; Texas is
larger than France or Great Britain,
and is four times as large as Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, Massa-
chusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Is
land, and lacks only 1000 square miles
of being as large as the combined area
of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio.
North Carolina, Indiana and Illinois.
1t is vast inclined plain with a
gradual descent from the northwest
ern boundary to the Gulf of Mexico.
The coast counties are nearly level for
GO to so miles inland the surface then
becomes undulating, with alternate
gradual elevations and depressions,
and this feature increases as VIC pro
ceed northwest, untilit becomes hilly
and finally mountainous in some OF
the far western counties; the highest
ranges, however, do not attain great
er altitude than 5000 feet. In the
coast counties the soil and climate are
especially adapted to the culture Of
the sugar cane, sea island cotton, rice,
and many semi-tropical fruits and
vegetables.
The eastern portion of the State, in
Guiding some eighteen counties, is
heavily timbered, and from here are
drawn nearly all the immense supplies
of pine lumber required in the prairie
portions of the State. Tho natural
resources of this section are varied.
In it are vast deposits of iron ore Of
excellent quality, and extensive beds
Of Ignite. Large crops Of cotton.
corn and other grains are grown in its
valleys, and its uplands are noted for
the production of fruits and vegetables.
It is generally well watered by streams
and springs.
Central and Northern Texas, though
generally rich prairie country, is by
no means devoid of a suficiency of
timber for ordinary purposes, its nu-
merous streams being fringed with a
large growth Of forest trees. 1t is also
traversed By what is known as the
upper and lower Gross Timbers," a
belt of oak, elm, and other timber,
from one to six miles wide. This is
the great wheat and growing re-
gion of Texas, and in this respect 1t
| is unsurpassed By any other section Of
the continent.
Western and Northwestern Texas
are the great pastoral regions Of the
State. and include 4 vast domain Of
unoccupied land. The surface is gen.
orally high rolling table-land, water
ed BIZ many creeks and ponds, but with
little timber except along the streams,
and on some Of the hills and noun
tain ranges in the western part. where
forests Of cedar, mountain juniper,
oak. etc, exist.
The luxuriart growth Of rich native
vrasses found in this section renders it
