wife gives tea or has afternoon
callers or he and his family
are invited out to an evenings
entertainment, off he posts to the
editor with an account OF 1T for the

the other off. The most preyelant
opinion among those who have made
the mat ter study seems to be that
the settler will hold in preference to
the filler and the "HDmesteadors
Guide" a pamphlet published in Wash
ington by a lawyer who mukes this
kind of business q speciality takes this
ground At any rate the settlers are
determined not to give the thing up
until it has been thoroughly tested.
