NECESSITY OF MENTAL CULTURE.
We can not discipline the mind too
much. However careful we may be
Of the body-to adorn it and guard il
from disease-wc should always he
sure to keep the mental ahead os the
physical training. A weak mind in u
noble body, is pitiabie sight. liz is
not possible to over estimate the
beneficial effec. OF mental education.
The moral aud mental powers are so
intimately connected that the one
cannot be influenced, or cultivated,
without the equal influence being in
serted upon 10th Of them, and as we
cannot bind thought, or drive 1t, we
are required only 10 lead the mind Of
the pupil, and direct the outgoing of
thoughts already there. 1t is almost
Impossible TO dam up the living, run
ming stream, but its course may lie
changed, it may be widensd and en-
larged, and be made of great value
to the country through which it flows.
Thoughts are the moral and mental
galvanism OF the universe. the soul
OF history, and the genius OF pronhe-
cy, and as il passes through the mind,
creates an Influence that continues
on, for good or evil, in accordance
with the line of training.
We are astounded some times. at
the wonders it reveals TO us. concern
ing its capacity and powers Of i'm
provement, and as it. grows older it
has more wants, and these must be
supplied by inventive genius, result
ing from mental culture. II the
mind is emitted to go on, year after
year, with little or 20 cultivaiionn, IL
will soon become sterile waste, or
produce the rank weeds and poison
Gus fruit of rebellion and vaSabond
ism.
We have in our country enough Of
this already, and the ease is press
ing one, calling for immediate action,
thought, and anxiety on the part OF
educated people. A mind uatrained
will produce discord at any time, and
the necessity for high state OF
mental culture was never greater
than now.

AIea GRADE MINES.

Orc from the Leads ofthe Southern Hills
which Are Full OF Richness.
Rapid City Journal.
The high-erade mines of this and Custel
county continue to "hold out" and ever
grow richer the deeper the shafts are sunk
The richness Of the ores in some of thes,
veins ia almost incredible, specimens beini
frequently found that are literally covered
and interblended throughout with the pre-
cious metal. The main chat of the R6ya

be obtained in the slate-all of which would
be considered good fair ore in the Lawrence
county camps. And the Bengal Tiger is by
no means an exceptionally ricn mine of i'll
class. There is a belt Of just such deposits
extending, in q southeasterly direction, Z
long distance. At the crossing Of Spring

confined to these quartz seams. The pros.
pect now is. and 1t is our honest opinion,
that the mex six months will develop here
a distinctive kind of quartz mining, and II
will be carried on by operating mills of
small capacitv-the cost of which will
bring them within the reach of men of mod.

the reduction Of these h~ieh.srade ore seams.
In the meantime the great low.grade mines,
with their vast bodies Of ores carrying q
uniform quantity Of gold throughout, such
as the Standby, DeSmet and Homestake,
will most likely continue to produce the
great bulk of the gold turned out by our
mines. The mammoth assures of the latter
class will have to be handled by strong
corporations; poor men, only able to set Z
little arastra in motion, will be able to
handle the rich little seams. such q have
been disclosed in the St. Louis and Bengal
Tiger mines. The mines worked BY for.
eign corporations will enrich outside stock.
holders ; the little high.grade mines, owned
and operated BY u own citizens. will dir

perity. The finding of these high.grade
mines is the most encouraging sign Of the
times.
