The discovery of oil wells in Texas
that surpass in flow the best produc-
ing wells in the Pennsylvania oil
region calls attention to the fact that
our knowledge of the mineralogy of
the country is based entirely upon a
little desultory scratching of the sur
face of the earth. OF what lies below
the surface, except in few scat
tered localities, we have no idea.
Probably if we did know there
would be no necessity of going as far
as the Klondike to seek gold.

who has land will be among the just
and will have to pay, for real estate
is visible and cannot be hidden.

This new-fangled style of fasten-
ing three or four trumpery little bells
to the shafts of a sleigh in lieu of the
good old-fashioned strings of sleigh
bells on the harness takes most of

traditional sleigh bells, ranging in
size from a hickory nut to an orange.
And there are still plenty of sleigh
bells in the rural districts, even
though cities have abandoned them.
