Be wise and bank a part of the earnings
each day.
Every dollar you earn represents a certain
number of hours of your labor. It is labor in
condensed form, convenient to exchange for the
products of the labor of others, or to hold in
storage for use in later years when your

The pioneer company, the Texas

Union. It is thought that it will not
be a great while now before the con-
struction of the sulphur plant and
actual production fo sulphur is under
