WHERE MEN ARE CARELESS.
Should Provide for the Future of
Those Dependent Upon Them.

Edward w. Box writes upon "When
Men are Thcughtless' in May Ladies'
| Home Journal, directing attention to
.sthe singular fact that the American
man, who is the best and most thought
full husband in the world, should yet be
peculiarly thoughtless as to the future
of bis wife or children in the event of
his DEATH"
MIR. Box forcibly contends that the
husband should have his affairs in such
condition that in the event of death
coming to him, his wife and children.
or those dependent upon him, would
not suffer. Ia this connection he says:
81 firmly believe that it Is the duty of
every man to be insured. With insur-
ance policies to be had at such low rates
IS is at present the case, there is scarce
ly a man who cannot afford some sort
Of a policy, no matter how small the
amount it may call for. What seems
to the man himself in good health as a
small amount for an insurance
policy, often turns out TO be
q modest fortune to the oma

sometimes, that the taking out of an
insurance policy, on the part of the
husband, for an amount according to
his means, might be made an obli-
gatory part of every marriage cere-
mony. know whereof l speak when
I say that there are hundreds Of women
in the homes Of this land who are
daily carrying with them the fear that
their husbands or fathers are neglect
ing or forgetting to make suitable pro-
vision for them as widows or orphans
They shrink from speaking to the men
of their homes about the matter. No
man can afford to neglect a simple
duty, which may mean all the differ
ence between happiness and misery to
his family. Suitable provision for
them he cannot allow himself to put
off, for surely it is true that sin the
midst of life we are in DEATH"

A Review of Work Being Done, and
the Prospects of the Best
Camp In New Mexico.
To fhe Editor OF the Optic.

To the Editor Of The optic.
HEMATIrE, New Mexico, April 26.-
I have been here for the last five days
looking over this camp, getting all The
Information l could as TO developments,
etc. The place Is growing slowly new
houses being built every day, AID tents
line the can IN Tor two miles down.
Some build logs up three feet and then
spread the tent above, making a good,
comfortable house. A good many
come, put up their tents, look over the
country for q few days, locate some
claims, then move near their work.
The mountains are full Of prospectors,
and more coming in every day.
One half mile from here, down the
stream. Is located the Athens Milling
and Mining company. They have some
six locations, have cleared up their
millsiie, and have a boarding house
built, and will move into 1t this week.
The boarding house was opened up In
due form with a dance, The Red River
string band furnished the music, and
all enjoyed it. There were eight ladies
in attendance, all belonging to this
place. There was a surplus Of gentle
men, and ladies were in demand, aud
l assure you that all enjoyed the dance.
The company have eight men at
work developing their property. The
"Yellow Jacket" ID the most do.
veloped. They have q tunnel run
about sixty feet and say the ore runs
$l4, mill Test, and have a large guam
tity of ore, The "Golden Gate" is
their next best property, which the
company claim is as good as the "Yel-
low Jacket" The 40. X" mine is
being pushed and their stock is in
creasing in value every day.
There has been but few "Dustys,"
(term used for tramps), struck the
camp up to date, but the woods are
full of Weary Wigglers,' (local term
used for prospectors.)
find that all old or new corners are
more or less affected by the altitude.
The surface OF the country no. being
level, but on an end, it makes all puff
in getting around. The snow is dis

gone. The fish begin to bite and to-
day being Sunday, no work being
done, the boys are fishing and l ex-
pect fish for dinner.
The week l have been here l have not
heard a word about free silver. The
trouble in Africa or the rebellion in
Cuba does not seem to have any effect
on the people here. I have moi even
heard who would be the next presi-
dent. What a place for politicians to
do penance! No conventions, no agi-
~tation, DO excitement. How he could
think Of the mistakes made and sleep

l will be in Elizabethtown this week,
located in new quarters, and will look
over the mining districts and give you
some information from that quarter
later. Enough for this time. B Els.

How to Treat a wife.

From Pacific Health Journal.
First, get a wife; second, be pa
tient. You may have great trials
and perplexities in your bus
mess, but do not, there
fore, carry to your home a cloudy or
contracted brow. Your wife may have
trials, which, though less in magnitude,
may be hard for her to bear. A kind
word, a tender look, will do wonders
in chasing from her brow all clouds OF
gloom.-To this we would add always
keep q bottle Of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in the house. 1t is the best
and is sure to be needed, DON or
luter. Your wife will then know that
you really care for her and wish to
protect her health. For sale by X. d..

None But Ayers at the Worlds Fair.

Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex
traordipary distinction of having been
the only blood purifier allowed an ex-
hiblt at the Worlds fair, Chicago.
Manufacturers of other Sarsaparillas
sought by every means to obtain a
showing of their goods, but they were
all turned away under the application
of the rule f%orbidding the entry OF
patent medicines and nostrums. The
decision of the Worlds fair authorities
in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in
effect as follows: "Ayer's Saisaparilla
is not a patent medicine. 1t does no:
belong to the list of nostrums. 1t is
here on its merits.

THERE seems to be a unanimity on
the part of the professors in Illinois
and Missouri, as we'll as on the part Of
Prof. Rontgen himself, that the X ray
is a sure specific against diphtheria.
If that proves to be the case, the
mothers in this land will raise a mon
ument to Prof. Rontgen. When a
physician comes into o house and says
10 a mother that her child has real
diphtheria, it is like holding the poor
up and reading to her her own
death sentence. Indeed, it often hurts
worse than such o sentence would. If
it can only prove to be true, that
all that has been needed in the
past to do away with the scourge
was a little more light, 1t will
pertain to the age Of miracles very
closely. No more prescriptions; no
more three or four days of alternate
hope and fear, only at last to have the
last hope 60 out; but the scientist
simply sets his little machine beside the
child and turns its rays upon the suf-
ferer. As it begins to do its work and
the anguish passes away, the patient
tails asleep. In two hours the instru.
ment is removed and the child is well.
With what new impressiyeness comes
that message now ''l4et thefs be light,
