when there has been such a feeling of
confidence in the Occur d'Alene coun-
try in general and in Wardner in par
ticular as now.
With the increase in the price Of lead
there comes a corresponding Increase
in confidence in one of the best, if not
the best, mining countries in the whole
northwest. There may be other sections
more talked of, but the Occur d'Alenes

from which millions will be taken in
the future.
section of the United States where SO
many opportunities are presented to
the poor man, be he a laborer or bust
ness man.
To be sure the country has been par
TALLY asleep during the last three
years. The low prices of metals coupled
with certain misunderstanding be-
tween capital and labor have acted as
an Opiate on the business of the coun-
try. But if the country has been asleep,
cry indication is that it will experience
period of substantial prosperity such
as it has never seen before.

tensive interests in the Occur d'Alenes

At Wardner there is the most per-
ceptible change. There are now in the
employ of the Bunker Hill company
over 800 men and more are coming in
daily. Yesterday Is experienced miners
came IN, most of them coming from Cal
ifornia. The company thus far has not
shipped great deal of ore, as a large
force of men has been constantly on

ordered a large amount Of machinery

Mentally he is as bright as any child of

except the face and hands, is covered with
the scales and markings of a snake. These
exceptions are kept so by the constant use
of CASTLE soap, but on the balance of his
body the scales grow abundantly.
The child sheds this skin every year. IL
causes him no pain or illness From the
limbs it can be pulled in perfect shape, but
of the body il comes in pieces. Always
his feet and hands are cold and clanmy.
He is an inorGinate eater, sometimes spend
ing an hour at meal, eating voraciously
all the time if permitted 10 do so. After
these gorgings he sometimes sleeps two
davs.
There Is a strange suggestion OF snake
