The Kansas City, Pit,bnrg X Gulf railroad has been an advantage to Polk county in more ways than one since its completion. One of these ways was demonstrated Thursday at the office of the county tax collector.

You Cdn't l Dodge Them

Did you ever try to dodge the rain-drops ? Did not succeed very we'll, did you? It's just as useless to try to escape from the germs of consumption. You can't do it. They are about as on every hand and we are con- stantIy taking them into our lungs.
 Then why don't we all have this disease ? Simply because these germs cannot gain a foot- hold in a strong throat and lungs. It's when these are weak that the germs master.
 The body must be well supplied with fat. The danger comes when the blood is poor and the body is thin. If your cough does not yield, and your throat and lungs feel raw and sore, you should not delay another day. Take

COLD! SILVER! COPPER! TIM!
KNOWN TO EXIST IN THE MOUNT
 ANS AROUND MENA.
THERE'S MILLIONS IN THEM.
Tests rlade By Responsible Men, Under the Cyanide Process Pro- duce Wonderful Results and Cause Considerable Ex-
 citement.

Experinced miners and those learned m geology, who have visited this section of country have been unani- nous in their opinion that this was an ideal mining country and the oldest in formation of any in the United States. Many prospects have been opened and numerous assays made by parties more or less responsible, and with varying results, the reports usually agreeing to the effect that our ores were so refractory as to be hard to seperate the metals from the rocks. For several months the Texas & Ar kansas Mining Company has been prospecting at Camp Wilder, eight miles south of Mena, and on last Saturday the owners made test on a 100 pound lot of their ore, in this city under the cyanide process, a system of extracting metals guaranteed by the inventors to take 95 per cent of all metals from the rock containing it, no matter how refractory it may have proved under other processes.
 From 100 pounds of crushed rock thus treated, an estimated value of $50 in gold, silver and copper was pro- duced, or 10 ounces of silver with traces of gold and 141s ounces of copper with traces of gold.
 These results were astonishing but responsible men who witnessed the entire process do not question the fact that the metal is genuine and that it was extracted, or came from the rock brought from the mine above named. The officers of this company are J. Ii. Wilder, president and rnos. S. Mahoney, secretary and treasurer, and with others associated with them is Mir. c. Petty, all of Marshall, Texas. These are reputed to be men of re- sponsibility and they announce their intention to at once put in fifty ton plant of the cyanide process and com mence work in earnest In addition to the foregoing 100 pounds of rock from the Helen Gould mine, owned by Daniel Byrnes was treated by the same process and the buttons or cones of metal exhibited to the estimated value of S2i .s5 as taken from this rock.
 DEPOSITS OF TIN.
 Also few days ago gentleman brought 10 this office an assay show ing Sa55 to the ton of tin from rock foand two and one-half miles from Mena. This was deemed too ''rich'' to be reliable and was notreported.
 Yesterday. however ex- Mayor T, M. Carder showed representative of this paper cone or button If tin weighing two ounces that he stated was melted from nine and one-half pounds of ore or rock taken from deposit three miles from Mena This had the ap. pearance of being ginuine and Mir. Carder says it is his intention to take out and crush 5000 pounds of this tin bearing rock and give it thorough test to see what he can get out of it. There may be millions in it.
