The mining stock market opened up
strong and active yesterday. ana
there was a feverish demand for the
leading and popular stocks, and es-
pecially was this the case on the floor
of the stock exchange, where the
transfers were heavy considering that
it was the beginning of the week, and
in most of the sales the quotations
were higher than when an adjourn
ment was taken last Thursday until
yesterday morning.
There was more than usual activity
in the listed stocks and they were firm
at the figures given below. Anchor
was in good demand at $1.O5, with no
sellers in the pit while Ajax attracted
a great deal of attention and displayed
considerable activity at 81 and SO
cents. Bullion-Bec was also q favor
lite and chrOnicled sales at $3.50. -Four
Aces suffered slight decline but made
a good showing at 1874 cents, on which
basis 4 made ready transfers. Mer-
eur was very strong at $7.05, but hold
ers would not let go under $7.25. Nam
moth developed decided upward
tendency and recorded sales at S2.5I12-
Considerable inquiry for Ontario was
noticeable and at advancing quota
tons.
The unlisted stocks cut an important
figure in the dealings and these made
an excellent showing. Swansea failed
TO make any transfers, but at the close
il was firmly held at $2.9I12 bid and
$3.O5 asked. South Swansea was also
in good demand at $2.0752, but the low
est offering was at S2.25, and it is be-
lieVed that the stock will touch this
figure in the bidding before the last
of the week. Northern Light held its
own in good shape and recorded sales
at 6SIs cents which is the highest
quotation made by this stock on the
board, although it has changed hands
readily on the streets at 20 cents.
Buckeye was strong at 9l2 cents bid
offered at TO- Sunbeam had quite
following and a good block. of the
stock was transferred at 10 cents, and
at the close it was held at 121a cents.
Little Pittsburg was also among the
active stocks and sales were made at
IL cents.
Immediately after the call the annual
election of the exchange was held, the
result being that the old officers and
the board of directors were unani-
mously reelected, as follows:
President. Z. H Airs; vice prcsi-
dent. NJ. s. Pendergast; second vice
president, z. z. Crooks; treasurer,
Frank Knox; secretary, Lindsay Hud-
son.
Board of directors, h. H. Airs, {. b
Hudson, George F. Downey, R. L.

Bullion-Beck Tunnel company, and it
is stated that if he can, that it is his
intention to buy up this property and
consolidate it with his already valu-
able holdings on Godiva mountain,
which. in itself, fully demonstrates his
faith in the future of this locality. In

The help" were sitting in the barn
one drizzly afternoon, engaged in their
favorite occupation of swapping lies,
when little Joe, who had not taken an
active part in the conversation, con-
Guided it was his turn to speak, and
this is what he said Say, / don't
believe more'n half the stories we hear
about this Klondike business. The
idee of pickin' up goldinuggets justlike
we pick up hickory nuts, humph," and
he expressed his disapproval with a
grunt. That's nothing, said the
Travelled Man, l have been where they
could take up gold by the sho7elful,
the genuine article, too" At this,
little Joe got excited, If you'd tell
that story to blind..ssmule he'd kick
your head off" hesdeclared.
It's fact though, went on the
Travelled Man, serenely, the place I
have reference to isLin the treasury
building in Washington. But speaking
of Alaska he continued, you must con-
slider it is vast territory, equal in size
to several of our largest states COM
bined, and the greater portion of it is
practically unexplored 81 What has
been found there anc what may yet be
discovered, we don'tNknow." "One
thing we do know, persisted Joe, is
they don't raise any crops up there, SO
what are they going to eat, that's the
question" Oh, any.~old thing, as to
that" said the Travelled Man. " The
fact is, after man has been there a
short time what he eats goes princi-
pally to Appetite and just so he gets
filed up be lis satisfied. One day he
will dine off an old%moccasin and the
next day he may feast on bear steak,
for [ supposesyou know that is a bear
country"
q Yes, exclaimed Joe, with an exult-
ant smile, entirely too bare to suit me. "
g Well, here, said the Travelled Man,
scornfully, if am to be punished for
this information, had better stop, if
you want proof of what [ say Fll-"
but just then the suppersbell rang and

SCHOOL NOTES.

Examinations we're held on Wednes-
day and Thursday. The results are
very satisfactory.
Much has been written concerning
the uses and abuses of school examina-
tions. Like other good things they
may be overdone. The following are
points in their favor: (D They serve
as a stimulus or incentive to study.
~ They afford valuable exercises in
composition. (3) They reveal to the
teacher the results Of his work and the
failure or success of his methods. az
On the part of the pupil they call for
concentration of mind, continuous
thinking and ready use of mental
effort. ~ They show to the pupil
his ability and attachments, as well as
his weakness and defects.
Miss Toner'S school, assisted by a
number of the High school pnpils, gave
an exhibition at the Woodlands Hall.
The exercises were instructive and
pleasing.
Mr.. Maloney visited us on Friday.
His call is highly appreciated by Doth
pupils and teacher. Mr.. Maloney is
an ideal uperintendent and his leaving
the office is a matter of regret to the
teachers of Kenosha county. He has
made progressive, aup-to date and
conscientious county superintendent.
All wish him. success in his new work.

How much property man viii leave
when he dies depends largely upon his
health The man who suffers from ill
health stands little show of being a sue
cessfu1 business man. The man who CONES
to his desk in the morning with head
ache, who suffers all day from dullness and
dTowsiness, who goes to his meals without
an appetite and losses reStless1y through
the night without sleep, is not likely to
leave a competence for his widow and or
phans. Success is even more dependent
upon health than upon ability.
Few men realize these truths. They
think that everything can be accomplished
by work, and that health is a secondary
consideration. Work is useless unless it is
good work, and good work is never done
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
best of all health restorers and health pre-
servers. 1t makes the stomach strong and
active. 1t sends man to his meals thor
oughly hungry every time. Tt facilitates
the flow of digestive juices and makes as
sirnilation perfect. It invigorates the liver.
1t purifes the blood and fills it with the
1ife-giving elements of the food 1t is the
great b1ood-naker and flesh-builder 1t
tears down inert half dead tissues and
builds new, firm, muscular flesh. 1t does
not build habby fat like cod liver oil and
does not make people more corpulent.
Mr.. John Brooks, of Boy1ston Mass, writes: &c I
write to tell YOU of the great benefit 1 have re-
ceived from DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
ery I was taken with bad cold which settled
on my lungs. The doctors said was in con-
sumption and could not get well. I took Cod
Liver Oil and it did me no good. After taking
it four months I heard of your Golden Medical
Discovery and it saved my life. "
