A Coal Mine.

Not only gold and silver are found in
abundance i'm this district, but the
" black diamonds" have also been
struck, and OF the best quality of btu
minOus found in the territory. Messrs.
Pott, Hayden & Pott, have found II
large vein, II miles below Anderson
vile, the surface groupings Of which
show that the vein must be first-class
and the hardest known in eastern Mon
tana. Although wood fuel can be had
in abundance, the auxiliary of coal will
be of material advantage for mining
purposes, and should this mine contain
a paying quantity it will prove a
bonanza for its owners and be of great
avail and saving to consumers.

One Of the greatest drawbacks to
the development Of a mining camp is
the lack of cooperation and harmoni-
Gus action. There is too much rivalry
and suspicion Of motives Of individual
Efforts for the welfare Of the camp.
Maiden is not altogether exempt from
this condition of things, and a stran-
ger will hardly be here long enough to
yet a square meal before he is made
WARE of the situation. This is to be
.deplored as it retards the development
Of our mines and the growth of the
town. The ARGUS has no sympathy
and will not lend its aid in propa-
eating discord. In union there is
strength, and if w expect to build up
the diversity Of industries, that are yet
in their infancy in this locality, we must
ON hands and pull altogether.

A WOmau's Doom.

Within dreary, narrow room
That looks upon a noisOme street,
Half fainting with the sitting heat
A starving girl works out her doom.
Yet not the less in Gods sweet air
The little birds sing free of care,
And hawthorns blossom everywhere.
Swift, ceaseless toll scarce winneth bread;
From early dawn till twilight falls,
Shut in between four ugly walls,
And all the while in some still place,
Where INTERVIEWING boughs embrace,
The blackbirds build time flies apace.
With envy of the folks who die,
Who may at last their leisure take,
Whose longed-for sleep none roughly wake,
Tired hands the restless needle ply.
But far and wide in meadows green
The golden butterCups are seen,
And Redeemed sorrel mods between.
Too pure and proud to soil her soul;
Or stoop to basely gotten gain,
By days of changeless want and pain,
The seamstress earns q prisoners dole.
While in the peaceful fields the sheep
Feed quiet, and thro' heavens blue deep
The silent cloud-wings stainless sweep.
And if she be alive or dead
That weary woman scarcely knows,
But back and forth her needle goes
In tune with throbbing heart and head.
Lo, when the leaning alders part,
White -blossomed swallows, blithe of heart,
Above still water skim and dart
o God in heaven! Shall I, who share
That dying wQrHRn's wOmanhoOd,
Taste oil the summers bounteOus good
EnbuFdened by her weight Of care
The white mOOn-daisies star the grass,
The lengthening shadows DER them pass
The meadow pool is smooth as glass.

lowing:

plexion at sixty was fresher than
that of our women at thirty, told me
her secret this summer, and it was
divided into two parts I FTsI--She
never used wash-pag OF towel on her
face, but washed it with her hands,
rinsing it off with a soft sponge She
used clear water in the morning, but
white CASTLE soap or very warm wa
ter at night, and, after drying it on a
soft towel, she would take a flesh
brush and rub her cheeks, chin and
forehead Second, if she was going
to be up late at night, she always slept
as many hours in the day as She ex-
pected to be awake beyond the usual
time, She finished her little sermon
on beauty preservation by saying;
" Soft water and sound sleep keep
off wrinkles and spots, and girls
should give more attention to this
than they do, for
