failure, may be due to things one can or

habits. or to ill-health, family sickness
the care of dependent relatives. or the
fury of the elements The result is a
large number OF over worked, SOured

no means all made up from unsuccessful
people. Many OF the most successful as

As a national holiday, July 4th. or In

orally observed by all Of the people than
any day which has been set apart as a
holiday; and AS It dates the period of the
American independence and the estab-
lishlng Of the principles upon which has
been founded the greatest and the grand

known, the patriotism of every loyal

the day by observing it in some way,
