O'NeilPs Machine a Success.

The hemp breaking machine invent
ed and patented by Frank O'Neill, Jr.,
of this city, has been perfected and
will be doing service in the hemp
fields of this county during the COM
ing season. The slight obstacles that
were Objectionable in the first model
built by the young inventor have been
running practical tests, making the
hemp merchantable from the machine
without requiring any shaking by
hand. Tests have been made with
hemp ranging in length from twenty
inches to eighteen feet, and it cleans
the short, fine material as well as the
long hemp.

Not Wearing Out, Merely Rusting.

that they are wearing out are Just
rusting out. Right with a feeling OF
weakness comes a spirit Of resigna-

The chances for person in this world
are fighting chances. Most that is
won is achieved by activity and en-
ergy. The only time to be resigned
is when you have to be. You do not
have to be so long as there is fight
ing chance. When you feel like being
resigned it is time to summer resolu-

we'll and keep your spirits from giving
