IN LUCKY ABILENE.
W. A. White Calls It tho Fountain
Head Of Success.

Emporia Gazette: Colonel Edward
Campbell Little, Of Abilene, is enter.
ing the literary field by writing most
interesting sketches Of the wild and
woolly days Of the west. There is
everything in Colonel Little's favor
in becoming literary man. In the
first place be can write, which is more
or less important; in the next place
be can see things at an interesting
angle, which is more important than
the writing faculty. In the third
place he loves the truth and doesn't
have to depend on telling it for his
daily bread, which removes the temp.
tation to lie, and fourthly and lastly
and more important than all other
considerations he lives in Abilene, the
home of letters in Kansas, and the
fountain head OF the river Of success.
Nothing succeeds like Abilene, should
be the revised motto. The sand in
the waters OF the Smoky Hill, when it
once gets into mans crop, is more
potent than lucky stones or magic
rings, or amulets made by all the
wizards in the world. II Colonel Ed
Little can't write the Great American
Novel in Abilene, it will never be
written.

from the water that is flowing from
the artesian salt well.
Out Of one and one.half gallons CT
