Treasure Land
DCSB LIBRARV TREASURE LAND A STOPY VOL I PUBLISHED BY THE ARIZONA ADVANCEMENT COMPANY TUCSON, ARIZONA 1897 COPYRIGHTED BY J. GEO. HILZINGER, TUCSON, ARIZONA, 1897. TREASURES or AND.... TREASURES OE WEALTH. ^f-\^f -^f ^^ ^^ -^^ TO THE READER: It is said of an old writer of romance, that he set the church bells ringing merely because he had found a name for one of his heroes, and we felt equally joyous when we found a title fof our book. It is one that suits it admirably, for it is full of gems of fact and fancy, and points the way to bounteous stores of treasures of health and wealth that are to be had for the seeking. As the ignorant Turk is said to preserve every scrap of writing that comes in his way, because the name of God may be written upon it, so do thou, O Reader, with this book, for there may be hope of life or a life of hope in it for some one who shall see it. We make no apology for our book : it is the best we can give under the circumstances, and is really worth twice as much to the reader as the latest novel. We claim no more originality than does the artist who transfers his perceptions of natural beauty to his canvas, and while we court no criticism, we do not fear it. We only ask of those, who are always ready to decry home talent, that, THEY BUY A COPY TO CRITICISE. We thank the many friends who have kindly given us their advice and assistance in launching this venture, and in their generous approval we shall find our greatest satisfaction. -
