: A SHREWD QUINTET.
Good Fortune Follows Their Saga
ciouS investments.

Some people are astute enough TO know
a good thing when they see it, and to take
action in the line of their appreciation. A
happy quintet OF San Francisco residents
have been holding jubilatiOn over their
foresight in securing tickets iu the Origi-
nal Little Benefcencia Publca Company
before The last drawing on the 10th nlt.
One of these is c. H. Mead OF 1913 Sac
Tamento street. That gentleman never
fails to take advantage of golden oppor-
tpnltles when they are presented to him.
He would no more think of missing
drawing than of foregoing a meal. Every
drawing finds him with a little investment
IN the form of lottery ticket and last
mouth his investment paid N dividend
SO large that it almost took his breath
: a way. When he purchased ticket No.
9S3 he tucked ii safely away, mentally
noting what he considered lucky combi-
nation of figures. And so it proved for
on the eventful day of the drawing he
found that his little slip Of paper was
worth exactly $3.50.
. Among the employees of the California
Wool Depot are S. Meyers, G. Green and J.
Lycette. They are great friends and fre-
Quenify take counsel together regarding
tie nost practical way of increasing their
modest savings by judicious investments.
II these young men continue to show
through life the same shrewdness they
displayed about month ago, il Will not
be long before each is the pOssessor of an
independent fortune. They laid the
basis for such p contamination by con-
tributing eaehd trif1e to a common fund

aee ptner lucky citizen is L. Wood of

mine that Will pay operating expenses. and that
higher grade

level ana that is the point where work will begin.
The Sutro tunnel connects with the Alta workings
at a depth OF 1000 feet below the surface, but the

"The Alta mill is in good repair rs well as
the moist plant. and all that is necessary to re-
