toms are misunderstood by patients and
physician. In the pitiless struggle for exist
ence the sick are at an awful disadvantage.
They are trampled under foot like lame
wolves in the rush of their strong and
hungry fellows. Small wonder is it that the
invalid, gloomily rejecting on what he be-
lieves to be his hopeless state, resorts to
pistol or poison; to the rope or the river.
A few dry words from his doctor have
fallen on his ear like a death-sentence. In
some medical book the sufferer has read Of
deadly diseases with symptoms such as he
noted in himself. He concludes he has some
disease he has read about, an Inference as
natural asst is unwarranted. Pride, duty and
love are powerless to hold thesuicide's hand.
Among the readers of this article may be
some who have pondered long on the ques-
ton whether a sick life is worth living, yet
nave not reached that pitch of despair when
they would push themselves across the line
between time and eternity. To G a few
words of simple, temperate common sense.

we'll and strong as any OF your ~neighborsf

HARDIN INNING COMPANY.
1t has been authoritatively stated by
officers of the Hardin Mining and Man
%ufacturlng company that work at their
shaft in Two Bit will, in the near future,
be suspended pending the erection OF
the proposed smelter at Redwater. The
reason for this is to be found in the fact
that the owners of the Hardin mine are
promoters Of and stockholders in the
Hardin proposition. 1t is consequently
their purpose to reserve the ore coming
from the mines in which they are in.
terested, for treatment at their own
plant. They feel confident that the
supply Of ore which the Hardin mine
will furnish will be sufficient to tax to
the limit the present mode Of transpor
tation to the Redwater district. When
the railroad people see fit to push their
tracks into the Two Bit country there
will be no trouble in getting the ore tc
the smelter as fast as it is mined. Until
that time and as long as teams are re-
CURED in the hauling, it has been
thought advisable to suspend opera
ions.-Pioneer-Times.
