~VoTE FOR IT.

Mining as an industry is the safest
and m~ost:pro6table business on earth.
Failures in legitimate mining are less
than in any commercial business.
Many mines are paying from 25 to
40 per cent per annum on their cap
ital stock. Most of these stocks
were purchased at from Is to so
cents on the dollar, making an in
vestment of from so to 100 per
annum. Stock deals in mining are
thing of the past, and mines are
now workedl for the money they
produce and they must be we'll de-
veloped before they a be sold and
then they must be offered on a bust
nes basis. Many mine owners de-
velop their mines and refuse to sell
them at any price, saying that thei'
mines are their banks and that theil
money is safer in them in thu
shape of ore than in banks
When mines are developed and thu
ore bodies opened it is an easy mat
ter to determine the value of tina
ore. The man who buys a develop
ed mine makes a business investment
as he can tell to reasonable certain
ty the value of the ore blocked out
There can be no safer investmen
than this, and the profits are muc
larger than in any other business
Mining products have a permanen
value, and there are no perishabl
goods and no competition, as Their
is always a market for the product

WHERE RICHES ARE A BLESSING

We are TOO prone 10 measure a
woman'S worth by her condition IN life.
Only last week | saw the wife of a
well known New York millionaire enter
one OF the great hospitals OF the town.
After a bit, curiosity tempted me to
follow, and for two hours | watched
that woman gClng through the wards OF
the sick, dispensing here some dainty
from maids basket, there a smile,
and again CHEEKY word. All the pa
tients knew her, and in dozen in
stances did | see the stricken sufferer
kiss her ungloved hand in gratitude,
and close their eyes as silent little
prayer went up for this woman who, so
bountifully blessed herself, did not
forget that there were others less for
tunate. And this is not an exceptional
case, but one which you can see in the
hospitals and institutions of the great
cities of our land almost every day.
Many millionaire's wife is to day sus-
tanning the hands of the noble band OF
women who are striving TO bring sunny
spots in the lives OF our working girls.
OF course there are women of vast

SHE WAS A WISE WOMAN.

She was woman of mild and in
offensive appearance. 1t did not seem
possible that she could hurt fly. For
wears she and her husband had labored
to earn a home. Now it was half paid
for. The faithful wife had risen early
in the morning to get her "man's'
breakfast religious!y washed, dressed
and spanked the children. she had
kept the house neat and tidy, and had
sat up until late at night to repair many
an unfortunate rent, and "piece out"
many an unpieceable garment. Her
life had seemed hard, tolsome one
but the hope OF home free from debt
Spurred her on. At last the blow came
Her lord and master came home and
announced that he had joined strike,
and would work no longer for a shop
that did not employ "union" labor.
Then it was that the little woman arose
in her might. "John Henry" said she,
''for seven years have worked sixteen
hours a day for board aud lodging,
with a new dress once a year. You
have worked eight hours a day, and
partly paid for our home, and had
plenty of cigars and beer. You strike ;
l strike too. Either you go to work
in the morning or I'll go home to my
mother" John Henry was thunder
struck. A woman strike! Why, it's
preposterous But here was the cold
fact; John Henry faced it, succumbed
to fate, and went to work. BIT, my
gentle reader, suppose the women were
all to strike, what would become of us

canine in his kennel and sick enough
to remain there. | lay down within
ten feet of him, hidden behind a
bush, and it was an hour and a halt
before anything happened. Every
body in the neishborhood was in

was not greatly surprised when a
female figure, which | knew to be
that of Mrs. Gray, suddenly appeared
and passed me five feet away, gong
toward the bank. She stopped at
the kennel to speak to the dog, and
then opened the rear door and
entered. | did not move from my

The view OF the correspondent is
common enough to be mlschlevous. 1t
has two sides to 1t, and both are wrong.
1t assumes that the possession OF wealth,
or even OF large income, brings hap
plness, which IS not true; 1t assumes
that the lack Of wealth entails unhap-
plness, which Is equally untrue.
Happiness is largely matter of
personal prcGisposlllon. The Mark
Tapleys of this world are always hap
py; It's Scrooges never are. Inc part
that money plays IN the matter is so
small as to be scarcely worth reckoning.
Money is an instrument. A certain
small measure of it is necessary, of
course, to put food IN the mouth and
clothes upon the Lack, but beyond that
it does next to nothing.
Money gives a certain power, but
whether power makes its possessor
happy or the reverse depends upon the
use he makes OF it. Money does not
bring exemption from care and worry.
1t more frequently increases both.
To certain types of mind there is
kind of ioy in the accumulation of
money because its accumulation Is a
kind of achievement, a conquest of
difficulties. But its mere possession
lnsures nothing except dinner, and
every man able to eaIn wage is sure
of that at any rate.
But the W0fldS little compliment
to the world that we live IN had refer
ence to other and better things than
money. 1t meant that there is a deal
OF human kindness, gentlsness, help'
fuiness among men; that man KIND IS
