That which is, is best and noble.
Minds accept it as such.
Honesty of purpose does not al

If you do not prosper, it is be
cause your methods are wrong.
Good breeding points 10 truth.
You cannot have one without the
other.
The individual who claims much
sanity is always bufdened with
folly.
We carry the hod of custom to
such an extent that the heather
laugh at us.
Fortune is two sided. No esti-
mate of misfortune may be made,
it is the work of man.
When Cupid is I'm earnest and is
taken seriously, the bread and but

Much credit is given to the "earls
bird" but the worm is looked upon by
lost on account of early rising.
You will always find the knowing
man giving advice. 1t invariably
turns out the worst vice of all.
The duties devolvlng upon the re.

or female weakness. and this suffering
is so common and so universal that
many women accept it as condition
natural and necessary TO their sex.
But it is a condition as unnatural as
it is unnecessary. The use Of DR..

TO LIFE AGAIN.

The commercial club, after its
long sleep, suddenly aroused itself,
last Tuesday night and got action
on itself. The matter if greater
Chanute was taken up and discussed
from various stand points by differ
ent speakers.
All seemed to agree that the time
is fully ripe for little concerted
( action on the part of the business
! men and citizens. Truly no local
ity in Kansas or any other state for
Il that matter, is move abundantly
y blessed with the natural resources
that are calculated to build up a
town. But as was remarked by
one of the speakers of the club,
"Oil will net make a town nor
neither will gas if allowed to 60 to
waste or slumber in the ground.
1t is the get up and:yet of active, in
telligent, aggressive, liberal minded
and public spirited men that builds
town.
Nature has abundantly provided
the resources here for town of 80
or 40 thousand people or even
more if we will but use them IN
proper manner. 1t will take little
time and may take little money
but if we are alive to our interests
and the possibilities of the future
and we will see almost mira culons
growth, of this town double dis
counted.
The man who hangs back now
will not put his money into pro-
perty or improvements in the vain
expectation that he will buy cheaper
in the spriug, or at some later date,
is destined to be left in the soup,
IS he deserves no town around us,
in the gas belt or out, made such a
growth the last year as did we.
Many towns have brought costly
factories and blowed of the vast
army of labores to which they give
employment, but when noses are
couuted, Chanute, it is found gained
more than any of them and the
factories are still to come.
Chanute has been advertlzed
more as an oil field than gas field.
The oil developments through but in
their infancy, are being pushed and
are giving employment to several
hundred men. Many hundred wells
have been drilled and much terri
tory prospected but little fully de-
veloped. There are is much good
oil territory in this locality yet to
be discovered. Scarcely a week
passes but the drill of some nervy
wildcatter penetrates the elusive
sand and he is richly rewarded for
his risk.
Our immense gas resources are
almost unused. With many thou
sand acres of proven gas land In
ever direction from the city and
dozens of good wells closed down
only waiting the consumer, we can
truly say Chanute is only in Its
infancy and the rapid development
I of the current year is but the be-
ginning.
What we need now is publicity of
the fact, at points where it will do
good, that we have the greatest gas
field on earth. That the territory
is proven and only awaits the de-
mands of factories. A little adver-
tizing and harmonious action on the
part Of our people will bring the
factories and thegrowth of last year
