Many men have created and invented useful
and scientific articles with only an OASIS OF
BELIEF to push them forward. The list OF
men who have been ridiculed for attempting
to find a solution to some problem is too long
to write. People gathered on the banks of the
Hudson River for the one purpose of laughing
when Fulton piloted the first steamboat on its
trial trip But they stayed to cheer and exalt
him when the contraption ran. AND 1T RAN
BECAUSE FULTON HAD THE FAITH THAT
IT WOULD.
Many people console themselves with the
oasis of old age-planning and waiting for the
time when they may rest in comfort on deeds
well done and the knowledge that they have
lived a full and useful life. BUT WILL THEY
FIND CONFINEMENT IF THEY HAVE NOT
CONSERVED BEAUTIFUL THINGS which
they have encountered in earlier years?
If the brain has been actively used, then
there will be a fund of memories to cherish in
later life. But if the brain has only been used
for nominal purposes and not as a storehouse
for the necessary fundamentals of pleasant

BY CLEAN WHOLESOME LIVING.
Mans intellect is the oasis of his brain Mans

OF music met our ears. The wake was in full
swing. The house was aglow with the light of
many candles, which threw their rays through
the clinks Of the wattled walls into the damp
darkness without while from the nearby
kitchen came savory odors that sharpened the
appettes we had built up on the long ride. The
cheerful sounds from within the house and the
seductive odors made it hard to realize that we
