Need Mere Water-The

Need Mere Water-The railroad compsnys well at Osborne is being sunk from the 200-foot strata. from which it has been pumping to lower strata. The 200-foot strata was found to be inadequate, in supply, to new needs, and the deepening of the well is the result. There is no doubt that with depth all the water that may be needed will be secured.

her. She is translating the rhapsodies
that Gil the souls of both into loves own

melting into a soft. dreamy harmony too
eostatic for joy. too hopeful for sadness
