Western art masterpieces by Maynard Dixon
Gleaming city.
City risen before the mind. Sheer thought: Crystallized. Not of heaven, but of earth. White towers glittering in the desert, City of pure mineral. A skull stares across the sand.
City of silence.
No sound, nor shadow. Only the hands Of the tower clock Mark the fixed hour. It is noon now forever. The hands have moved together Pointing straight upward. The sun stands overhead. The circle is perfected.
Inevitable city.
Where, at a point within, Heard ticking At the secret center, The Object, The ice-blue element Glowing in its cage; The mechanism, finely set; Waiting our human footstep.

Samples of the ore have been submitted to government and private assayers. The two men have not returned to Toronto yet, but they are expected this week.
The prospecting trip was made by aeroplane and canoe via the MacKenzie River route. While their Toronto office has been advised of the possibly discovery of radium, no details are available.

Made with hemp oil which is wonderful for any mane to condition and moisturize. This product has a creamy texture which makes application very comfortable.
