will Agree"
The Youngster pretended to Submit, but
at a Favorable Opportunity he cantered up
for close Investigation. He got an ear
full in about half Minute, and had not

closed when his Mother drew near and
queried:
"Did not warn you against the Bees?'
"You did,"
''Then why didn't you Heed my Words!

and the I-told-yo u-soes are getting in
their work, bat your correspondent
has to say that times ON the upper
levels have been very much bluer and
the prospects far more discouraging
than they are to-day.
All the leading mines are in opera
ton. The outpuT OF bullion is first
class and there is large extent of
territory both in lonth, breadth and
depth yet to prospect.
Tuscarora has produced many
millions of dollars in gold and silver,
and only requires time, push and
capital to produce many millions
more. All We want to dc, is to put
our shoulders to the Wheel Of the old
cart and keep pushing and if we need
assistance it will come to us "in the
sweet bye-aud-bye," for the Gods
help those VINO help themselves.
