Much of the success of life depends
on proper preparations for the days

gulp down n hasty breakfast is no
preparation for good days work. yet

women begin the day in this way. II
is just as easy to rise in plentyoftime'
if one will only do it. The tendency
on waking is to stretch and yawn. A

there win likely be an arrest in a day

and Hull is taking care of them. The

the Lewis county officers to put her in
Jail and make her tell where she got
the license, and next he will go to Buck
harmon and see whether or not the
license wa. issued there. He swears
vengeance againt both the woman and
Gibson and proposes to see that they
