A World of Good

One of the most popular medicines
now before the American public, is Hop
Bitters. You see it everywhere. Peo-
pie take it with good effect. 1t builds
them up. It is not as pleasant to the
taste as some other Bitters, as it is not
a whiskey drink. It is more like the
old fashioned bone set tea that has done
a world of good. If you don't feel just
right try Hop Bitters [Nunda News

THOUSAND DOLLARS rE. roS


In silver, and some few dollars in gold. The
best mines discovered SO far are the Orna-
ment, Ohio South, Ohio North and Utah.
These mines are in contact Vein between
porphyry and granite, and are traccable by
cropping, and ore on the surface for over a
mile. The Ornament shipped lot OF sur
face ore to Salt Lake that sold for over $3.50
per ton. The majority OF the mines on Wood
river are held by men Of little or no means.
Had there been reduction works pu: up here
last season ten men would be working on
Wood river this winter to the one man there
at present. Transportation expenses eat up
all the profit on ores sssaying less than $50
per ton; it costs forty dollars per ton, from
where you can load it on = wagon, to ship it
to the railroad from Keltsn to Salt Lake
seventy dollars per car; and five dollars Per
ton for sampling and ass.yins. This, to-
gether with sacks, tools, provisions and other
liking expenses, would leave the poor miner
nothing. Consequently large number COW
cred up their holes last fall, and left to seek
employment elsewhere.
