Although there sre dark sides which will in all cases appear, no one but the unwise would overlook that matter, But ldo not think there is another country to be found that will afford the opportunities for a man of limited means to get a start in life financially, equaled to the gulf coast country in geueral. The proof is plentiful, all necesary is ambition enough to push the work along, and not Jet little things worry you too much. And one of the imports ant thiogs Is to depend on yoursell as much as possible, But pever over look good advice which is of much importance to the settier.
