Those Who Save a Portion of Their
Earnings, Are Sure to Prosper.
Charles Dickens, who was a
great student of human nature,
in his "David Copperfield"
makes MIR. Micauber observe;
eff a man had 20 pounds a
year for his income. and spent
19 pounds, 19 shillings and 6
pence, he would be happy; but
if he spent 20 pounds and one
farthing, he would be misera-
ble." The truth of this quaint
ly expressed warning is every
day shown by the happy re-
suits which come to those, who
from their earnings however
small-are able and willing to
lay by a portion for a future
day. This habit has laid the
foundation for many a fortune,
and proved of inestimable val
ue in time of need, aud those
who have practiced buying
their wall decorations, window
curtains, paints. oils. varnishes
and brushes of Saur 4 Balls
ley, are willing to testify that
they have been able to deco
rate and repaint their homes as
well as their neighbors and still
have enough to eventually
place them in easy circumstan-
ces. If you are not now a
customer, better become one
at once and you will soon see
how easy it is to solve the

1t is simply remarkable
what fine wall paper can be
bought for very little money.
1t is now possible to paper an
entire house with elegant and
artistic paper and yet not ex-
pend an unnecessary, and ex-
horbitant sum. The display Of
unique and novel patterns in
wall paper made by Saur & Balls
lev, is the admiration Of all who
have looked at it. 1t is astock
to please everybody.
No intending buyer Of wall
paper can afford to overlook
this. large stock, which con-
tains three patterns to every
one shown by all others COM
bined in this locality. This is
a fact that can readily be es-
tablished by a visit to their
store.
Saur & Balsley's paints and
oils have an established repu-
tation. They are known as
the best the market affords and
sold as cheap, if not cheaper,
than inferior goods, Brighten
up your houses by applying
some of these paints and you
not only make your homes at
tractive, but a thing of beauty
and comfort.
Then again, examine their
line Of drugs and patent medi-
cines, and see if it does not
compare favorably with any of
a similar nature in the North

one, and years Of buying have
brought to hand all drugs and
patent medicines of any note.
Their drugs are pure, and are
open for analysis.
The Book and Stationery
department is within itself a
sight worth travelling to see

school supplies, while there are
very few Of the classics that
cannot be found on their
shelves.

Especial Correspondence of The INDEPENDENT.
This is the day when every fashionable
woman in New York attends church, ar
rayed more gorgeously than Solomon in all
his glory; but the contribution box cannot
afford a new coat of paint. Therefore the
fashionable woman regards it with a cold,
unfriendiy stare. and thereby she is for
once in accord with her husband who &C
companies her to the house CT worship. His
own attire excited little or no attention,
but he can breathe without being afraid of
bursting his surcingle. which is more than
his wife can do. He sees hundreds stare at
her and he reflects with pain that if every
one of them had to pass him $1.50 for an
orchestra chair to view that dress, he would
be NO more than even on it.

gentle reader who has not the advantage OF
living in this center of fashion desires to
know whether her hair is the proper shade

over a slow fire, whiten it with a little soda,
and then wait till it begins to stick to the
kettle and smell badly and get streaked.

But form is only a small part of dress
nowadays. Color is becoming more and
more bewildering all the time. There are
any quantity of new shades and no end of
new names for old shades. Harmony in
color has become a matter of prayerful
consideration. A woman's hat and gloves
and hair pins n handkerchief must of ex-
actly the same shade as her dress. So must
her stockings ann her stationery and her
cough medicine. and. in fact, this harmony
in color is carried much farther than a
modest man can follow it, even in print.
The idea lends itself c%heerfully to the pur-
poses of robbery. A milliner can now in

La Plata Notes.

About ten tons Of ore has been dug out Of
the Shutdown mine.
The Opal Mining company will begin to
sink shaft on its claims in few days.
Thirty different prospects are being
worked in the immediate vicinity of La
Plata.
Mr. Pease, clerk in Funge's hardware
store has returned to La Plata after lew
days sojourn in Ogden.
James p. Sprunt is experimenting the
operations of the Blue Jay mine. A shaft
is being sunk to a depth of one hundred
feet.
A report came in yesterday Gnat the men
working in the La Plata mine had struck
ledge of free milling ore which will assay
about $50.
The shaft in the La Plata is still going
down. Two shifts are working and the
ground has been punctured for depth OF
over forty feet.
The report that the Shutdown was sold
seems to be untrue. However, il is likely
TO change hands at any moment. The latest
price quoted is Sl4, 900.
Reports coming from the La Plata min
ing regions are still very encouraging for
the future of the camp. People are still
coming and going as usual. However, 1t is
said not so MAN. people are clustered at La
Plata city as there were ten days ago.
Some have left the regions entirely; others
have gone to surrounding camps, while
many are camped at their respective pros
poets.
a shaft is being sunk on the La Belle
claim near the Wardleigh. A force of six
men, day and night shifts, is at work. 1t
is the intention of j. j. McKenna, the
manager, to put the shaft down to depth
of at least one hundred feet. The La Belle
promises to be one of the best mines in the
camp. An assay was made few weeks
ago and 1t was found that the ore runs 126
ounces silver to the ton and $50 in gold.
