GA POUNDS OF GOLD

Active SeasOns's Work on Number

of Claims.
Good placer propositions are in
great demand all over the country,
and there is keen rivalry among in
vestors to secure paying claims,
and at no time in its history since
the golden days of '6l, and '62, has
there been more work contemplated
in this line. 1t has been the opin-
ion that the immense gold out
put of those early days would
never be equalled again and as a
matter of fact it. Is only once in a
while that we do hear of some
thing real good. Longing eyes
have been for many years directed
towards the great gold fields of
Salmon river, Warrens, Elk,
Dixie, Florence, Newsome creek
and the headwaters of the Middle
Fork of the Clearwater, in Idaho
county. A number Of active min
ing men have been quietly secur-
ing properties and the present sea-
son will witness great activity in
the different camps. The initiat-
i've move in this work has been
started by Rod d. Leggat, IA we'll
known operator Of Butte, Montana.

years ago when they were owned

as a thorough placer miner and a
man of sterling integrity. At the
time of the suit referred to they
had been leased by Mr. Witt to a
gang Of Cinnamon and other par
ties attempted to jump them from
the Cinnamon aud big law suit
was the result. These claims are
worthy Of nute for several reasons;
they were located long prior to the
enactment of any mining law in
the United States, and contained
one hundred feet up and down the
creek and the side lines extending
back to the apex of the adjacent
mountain, however distant. This
kind of claim was known as a
bench claim. Bar claims run one
hundred and fifty feet up and down
the creek and two hundred and
fifty feet back. This of course
being according to the mining laws
of the district. The present COM
pany have owned the property

thousand dollars net profit each

TO PREVENT La GRIPPE.
Timely Advice from the New York
"Magazine Of Sanitation and
Hygiene"

The New York Magazine of Santa
tion and Hygiene says that a more
meritorious medicine than Krause's
Cold Cure for the prevention and cure
Of la grippe has never come under tho
examination Of the chemical and medi-
cal experts of that magazine. As
soon as you begin to take cold or feel
the frsl symptoms Of the grip take .
Krause's Cold Cure capsule every
three hours during the day and TIVE
before retiring at night. This will
insure . good nights rest and . free
movement of the bowels next morn
ing. Continue the treatment next
day and you need have no fear of the
grip.
Krause's Cold Cure is guaranteed
to break up Ia grippe in day. and to
cure an ordinary cold over night. 1t
is new principle in medicine prepared
in soft, soluble gelatine capsules,
which are easily dissolved by the
warmth and fluids Of the stomach.
They are far superior to hard. sugar
coated pills or tablets. They do not
affect the head as does quinine nor
upset the stomach. They contain no
calomel, and can be taken with safely
by the most delicate woman or child.
Krause's Cold Cure is for sale by
druggists at 25 cents a box. Sold

BUSINESS HINTS.

BUSINESS HINTS.
Experience helps to make perfect
advertising.
Advertising is valuable only when
properly handled.
The question is not whether to ad-
vertise, but how to advertise.
+ i. 4.
If an article is worth carrying in
stock it is worth advertising to the
community.
Every business man should carry
goods that he can advertise with a
clear conscience.
1t is better to do little advertis-
ing and do it well than to do great
deal and do it all badly.
+ i. 4.
The good treatment of customers
is one of the things which has great
influence on the building of trade.
Business is an uphill proposition.
II you don't keep pushing; it is likely
to settle back and give you the worst
Of the tussle.
Business is easily obtained where a
man goes after it in a manner that
shows him worthy and willing that
business should come to him.
+ 4. +
No advertising effort is lost if it
serves to increase the hold of the firm
on the community or assists in re-
tanning the bold already established.
+ + +
A good bit of business is made by
advertising and considerable is lost
by not advertising, but all advertis-
ing wont make business, because it is
not the sort Of advertising to compel
buying.
One good advertisement. telling of
real values and great opportunities,
will do more to make business sue
cess than abundance OF bombast and
ridiculous assertions, no matter how
lar ge the display.
The man who thinks he can do bust
ness without advertising might as
well try to sell goods by the nickle-
in-the-slot process, depending on
customers to come along and shove
in their money and accept what they
get.
The man who has that for which
the people are looking and invites
their attention to il when they are
interested and excites their interest
when he feels he can create that in
terest will not be one Of the kind who
complains about the condition OF
business or who is uncertain about
the results from advertising.-Adv.
