While I'LL Europe is having fever
ish experience specializing in stocks Of
African and Australian mining COM
panies, it is rather interesting to note
that the gold-mining operations of this
country and Canada have been increas-
ing in marked degree.
The Black hills mines will, 1t is esti-
mated, produce $10,O00,0G0 in gold this
year. New finds Of rich ore are re-
ported almost every week, new clor-
ination aid cyanide plants are under
construction, and the district Is sald
to contain mills having the equivalent
Of LOO active stamps. Northern Mon
tana has also been explored for gold
and some good indications have been
found in the Belt mountains and the
Sweet Grass hills. Most of the gold
has been found in placers, and as water
for mining or for any other purpose
was very scarce during the past sum-
mer, the output for the year will be
small in spite of the apparent richness
of some of the deposits.
The gold region of Rainy lake and the
Seine river northwest of Lake Superior,
has recovered from the unhealthy boom
of 1923, and while the mines little
farther to the west, around the Lake
Of the Woods, are forging rapidly ahead
The Canadian Pacific mines gives these
mines easy communication with the
markets, and they have developed quite
fast. The oldest mine, the Sultana,
has some 1900 feet of workings and has
produced $4,000 in bullion up to the
present time. There are mills with
about 90 stamps in this district and a
large reduction plant.

OLD MAGAZINES.
Various Ways OF Turning Them to GOOD
Isp.

what shall we do with the old mag
azincs?" is a question in nearly every
household. In these days Of cheap cur
rent literature they accumulate so rap
idly that bookcases and shelves are full
to OVERLOOKING. Years ago when fam
lily considered itself fortunate to be
able to subscribe to one or two monthly
magazines they were treated more care
fully. Usually they were bound in vol
umes containing five or six numbers
each, and were considered desirable
addition to the library. Now first
class magazine can be bought for ten
cents, and instead of two there are
often six or eight brought into the
house every month, until it is question
of how to dispose of them. OF course,
they can be sent to the hospitals and
asylums, but 1T is often inconvenient,
and one of those things one is always
going to do, but seldom ever does. Be-
sides, there is often story or picture
in a magazine that is worth keeping.
An attractive and unusual book can
he arranged by cutting out all the desir-
able stories and having them bound.
There is sure to be no other like it, and
it would show the taste Of the person
who made the selections, besides pre-
serving good short stories which do not
appear in book form. In order to do
this successfully it is necessary to draw
out the wire at the back of the maya
zine which holds the leaves together.
1t is easy then to remove the pages that
arc wanted, and then there is sufficient
lnargin for the book-binder.
y collection of pictures cut from the
magazines and nicely arranged in a
scrapbook is another means of saving
those of interest. In this case it is u
good plan to classify them and arrange
them according to subject.
1t is hard to find book a child will
enjoy more than one of this kind-with
selection of appropriate pictures. 1t
is something that cannot be bought,
and no other child will have one like it.
The funny pictures sometimes found
among the advertisements would make
n good collection, and one that would
interest and amuse everybody.
With a little time and patience the
old magazines can be disposed Of very
probably, and in their place will be
something worth keeping. -Chicagc

BALLING ON HORSES HOOPS.
SiD,ple Way by Which the Inconvenience
May BE Prevented


There IS a wel-known Detroit physi.
clan who has been looking for years for
some plan to prevent snow "balling'
on the hoofs of his horses. The othcc
day he discovered what he had been
looking for. For years he has lied
every sort of device that he could CON
ceive of, or that had been brought TO
his attention by other people, but the
snow was always balling on the hoofs,
just the same, much to the danger
of the horse and his own discontinue.
He was coming down Woodward ave-
nue. and the same old trouble was wear.
ing on his patience. Getting out of his
buggy, he went into drug store, and
asking for some drug he wanted, he in
cidentally remarked that he would like
something, too, that would prevent
snow 'balling" up on his horse.
WELL" said the druggist, II Shout
think you ought to know how to stop
that Giving the doctor two ounce 5
of glycerine, he told him to divide it
evenly on the four hoofs of his horse.
The physician took the prescription
and applied it as told. He drove on
down town, and, getting out, looked At
the horse, to find that there was no
snow whatever on any hoof. 1t seemed
complete cure. Oil and lard have
often been tried, but opposed by vet
erinarians on the ground that they keep
the moisture away from the hoof,
therey doing it injury. This fails of
application to glycerine, for it will
mix with water 1t will not injure the
hoof, and, it seems, will keep the hoof
free from snow.--Detroit Free Press.

"Of things-like that"-indicatin
with a glance an inotfensive, elderly
young gentleman who was in the habit
of dining out every night of his life, and
was not known to have any other as
certainable object in view-in this
world, at any rate.
Lady Glenlyndon forebore to urge the
fact that woman who has once been
married and has been so brutaliy treated
by her husband that she was obliged to
fly to her father for protection must
have had some experience of real man
of kind. She sympathized deeply
with Lady Clare on this point, for her
own first husband had been very far
from an angel.
"Col. FitzDominicll is real in every
sense of the word. He has had enough
adventures TO fill book. He has made
his own pile out of literally nothing at
all. He actually owns to having begun
life as a strolling actor on the smallest
of salaries, and is not at all ashamed of
it-unlike most of our millionaires, who
want to rake in Norman ancestors. Get
linn to tell you some of his Cambodian
experiences, and you will have enough
realism to give you nightmare. Or, if
you want to really like the man, draw
him out on Russia"
Col. FitzDominick proved to be tall,
sinewy man, with long visage, which,
in some respects, reminded one of the
statue of the great duke of Wellington
and in others of his charger, the re-
semblance to both being greatly in
creased by the fact that his face was
clean shaven and deeply shaded where
the strong, black beard and mustache
had been shorn away. He possessed a
keen, yet laughing eye.
