Too little consideration is given the
details Of every day life. Even the
most Insignificant deserve careful

lluence of the least important of life s
duties should not be forgotten.

He earns all he makes; besides indi-
rectly doing great deal for the coun-
try.

ern home seeker to this county. T. |

same issue. The entire paper is filed |
with spicy Kansas reading.
