MAP OF BoDEE.-Mr John G. Fox has re-
ceived, and offers for sale, some of Frank
Tagliabues maps of Bodie and vicinity We
believe he left one in this Office. We are
afraid some bold prospector or geographical
kleptomariac has confscated it. 1t is a hand
some map it is an encouraging map: it Is
rich IN dips and groupings, spurs and angles,
indications and argentiferoUs possibilities.
Moreover it is the production of the skilifui
and truthful hand Of Frank Tagliabue. And
there are many men and more women who
know what a sweet good man Frank is and
ho" he spreads his genius all over map. Go
and buy a Bodie map, hang it up against your
bed-head, look at it just as you go to sleep,
and thank God, On your knees, in tho morn
ing that the map is the nearest to Bodie you
have sot-or are going, before spring. Go
and buy one for your wife for a Christmas
present.
