The full intensity of living is reached
only by the perfectly healthy. Sickness
discounts the capacity for enjoyment.
If his body is all out of order and run
down he will not be able to enjoy any
thing, no matter how full of enjoyment
it may be for other people. If he is just

sick, but doesn't feel just right" he will
only be able to enjoy things in a half
hearted sort of way. The nearer he is
to being perfectly well the nearer will
his capacity for enjoyment be perfect.

ought to be done. That means nine

constipation and piles, and neglect of
a cold brought on catarrh, followed by
heart difficulty, and liver and kidney

them all, until my suffering drove me to

judgment began taking the medicine, to-
gether with Hoods Pills, and I ended
with them, taking no other medicines,

AMONG THE MINES.

Echoes From the nanv Mines.

Prospects are encouraging at the Crys
tai Mountain Mine. Work started again
Monday morning after three days of
putting the machinery in order. The
change Of the formation is coming in
SLOW, not yet sufficient to show what It
is going to disclose.
The Laura has eight inches of good
pay ore in the vein, and both the leasers
and lessees are elated at the prospects of
soon having dividends to pass around.
Tne Finley also on Meadow Mountain, is
looking well. and its managers have con-
hdence that it will soon show up paving
ore in quantity.
The Black Queen is still being unwa-
tered. Level number 2 is clear Of water.
and all the other workings will soon be
dry, II the pumps continue as faithful
as the past week. The mine is being
exported this week by Me.,srs Mitchell
OF Pueblo, and Allen and Walter Of Den
yer, to determine its value.
There has not been much said Of tbut
the North Pole lode, which will be re-
membered as having shown some rich
copper and lead ore year ago, is to be-
come an active shipper. Between three
and four hundred tons of ore carrying
27 per cent copper, will be shipped to
the Hoffman S. Il r. Co., within the next
thirty days. A. t. Ferris. who controls

nations OF earth. less than four months
ago, from the President OF tho United
States notifying that the ports of Cuba
we're under blockade and the United

we're at war. This country has shown
its power in war, far more impressive to
the world than the noblor ami better
example Of thirtythree years of profound
peace. Again we shall startle the world
by the glad welcome we give to the news
OF peace. We are not people of com
bative temperament. nor is the spirit of
conquest developed trait in American
character. but in the pursuits of peace
We find contentment and happiness. All
that has been gained through the for
tunes of war we shall hold, while not a

Wheat:and's Holocaust.

1t is with deep regret Crystal people
have heard Of the destruction by fire OF
the business section OF Wheatland, Cali
fornia, set by incendiary strikers and
tramps.
DR.. l.. Melton, President Of the Crys-
tai Mountain Mining & Drainage Com
pany, was ono of the heaviest losers. DR..
Melton's losses include hotel building,
store. Office block and residence. A bro
ther of w. B. Roddan engaged in the
lumber business lost his entire stock of
lumber, Office and residence. The -Four
Corners, a valued exchange of the LANCE
suffered total loss of plant and presses.
Several Of the people who lost heavily
are interested in Crystal, and some of
them are well acquainted with all of our
people, and we all join in synpathizing

Good is able to pass around
Fortune cabinet portfolios in a
manner to make polticas-

the present incumbent OF the White
House politically secure in every state in

from his post at London to succeed Day
at the head OF the State Department,
and after the work Of the American COM
mission has completed its labors Judge
Day is to become United States Circuit
Judge. Calling Hay to the eSecretaryship
Of State leaves open the most desirable
diplomatic station Of this government.
It is also stated that two other vacancies
will occur in the cabinet soon after the
close Of the war settlement. Exception
al opportunity to reward friends came in
the appointments for the army, having
at his disposal hundreds of lucrative and
honorable official positions in the Volun-
teer Army. This kind fate is doubtless

Now Is the time for some evangel to
rise up in Spain and to proclaim new
departure, and his voice should be heard
in tones something like this: ave have
been beaten, outclassed and overmatched.
The royal standard of Spain. which has
been a glory to the world for thousand
years is in the dust. Our armies are
crushed, our ships destroyed, and our
power wrested from its hold upon a hemi-
sphere. Why? Because we have not
been true to ourselves. The church has
usurped the powers Of the state, and we
have trnsted to God for things which
God made us responsible for when he
gave our fathers honors and exalted us
among the nations Of the earth. We
have closed the book Of knowledge toour
people, we have taken from them their
free thoughts, we have made their inde-
pendent convictions subssrvient to the
will OF Interested and selfish masters un-
til their manhood has broken down; until
the taint of decay is upon us as race.
We have little left save pride and thai is
ike tne prlde oi tne hon aiter ms tooth

womanhood Of Spain; now for the educa-
ton of Spanish children; now for free

doctrine that all Governments derive

And gray hairs twine about her cars.
Her cheeks are pale, vissge thin,
Long and pointed is her chin;

"Open your mouth-oh," said she,
"rhosc teeth you bought OF DR.. E."

Says she ''tis pretty but far to young:
You should not wear gay trimmed hat
You have outlived tho time for that"
And this rich gown of dainty hue,

And I'm vexed she says forsooth,
That she has only spoke the truth.
Oh, il this stranger face would pass!-
Something's wrong about the glass
Why is it that cannot see
My dear young face look back at meY
Ny gay young self that used to wear
Lilly buds twined in my hair,
And smile to hear the faterers say,
The face beneath was sweet as they.
II am old we'll pass that slur,
l might forget it but for her;
Hopes Springtime still about me seems
gather violets in my dreams.
But when do she oft has said,
Those flowers for you long since ar dead

Are all the blossoms left for you.

Life and accident insurance are two
classes Of investment well worth the con-
sideration OF every man and woman.
Nothing else in modern business has
made such rapid progress during the
past decade. No other class OF invest
ment has experienced such phenomenal
growth, and the reason is readily under
stood: no nation is firmer financially than
the big insurance companies. and no
secure investment pays better rate Of
interest. Modern life insurance provides
a pension or a competence for old age.
