Machinery is all contracted for and
large payments made on same. All

soon. The work will be pushed to
completion as rapidly as possible,
and I wish to state that when COM
pleted Grand Junction will have one
of the best smelling plants in every
respect in the United States and it
is the intention of the company to
do first class work and endeavor to
promote the mining interests on the
Western slope to the best of their
ability
No one who has ever promoted a
scheme of the magnitude of the one
which is being pushed to fruition by
Mr.. Howard can imagine for one mo-
ment the great amount of work necess-
ary to accomplish. before the end can
be seen. 1t is comparatively an easy
matter to finance small grocery or a
small dry goods store. but when you
are out to present a proposition tc
capital which means an Investment of
several hundred thousand dollars, it
requires the keenest kind of diplom
acy to make people believe and be-
come as enthusiastic over the propo,
sition as you yourself are.
The building of the smelter in thi-
city will open an era of prosperity
greater than Grand Junction has eve1
enjoyed 1t will be one Of the open,

Tragedy of scmi-perccption,

A bachelor member of congress,
who is not as handsome as Apollo,
.ropped into Clerk McDowell's office
he other day to seek sympathy be-
cause the lady on whom he had looked
with favor was about to be married
to another man.
"'rhat reminds me-" said Mcdowell,
''of the incident which happened when
Gov. Dick Oglesby went down to Joliet
to inspect the state prison. In one of
the cells was a very ugly man.
"'How did you get in here| asked
Oglesby.
Abduction" was the reply. 4
tried to run off with girl and they
caught me- ...
"T shall pardon you as soon as
get back to Springfield said the gov.
ernor. I don't see how you could
expect to get q wife any other
way"
The homely bachelor congressman
laughed loudly. Then, as the applica-
ton of the story dawned upon him,
the smile faded from his face and
he walked out of McDowell's office
without saying word.-Washington

WHEN IDA PUTS HER ARMoR ON

When Ida puts her armor on
And draws her trusty blade
The turnips in the bin turn pale,
The apples are afraid,
The quiet kitchen city wakes
And CONSERVATION feels,
And quick the tocsin pealeth forth
In long potato peels.
When Ida puts her armor on
The pots and pans succumb,
wooden spoon her drumstick Is,
A mixing pan her drum;
She charges on the kitchen folk
With silver, tin and steel;
She beats the eggs, she whips the cream,
The victory is meal.
When Ida puts her apron on
Her breastplate is of blue
Checked bingham, rutiied top and sides),
Her gauntlets bingham, too;
And thus protected from assault
OF batter, stain and flour,
She wars with vegetable foes
And conquers in an hour.
When Ida puts her armor on
She is so fair to see
Her battle with the kitchen folk
Is reproduced in me;
So sweet she is. armed capable,
So good her kitchen art,
hardly know which loves her best.
My palate or my heart.

Some birds and animals put on ex-
ira foot coverings for winter use in
walking on snow and ice and boring

the ruffed grouse, the ptarmigan and
western rabbit. The latter is some
times known as the "snowshoe rab-

hair which appears on it's feet in cold
weather. The ptarmigan has broad,
stiff feathers on it's feet, and the ruff
fed grouse sharp-pointed fringe.
These drop off in the spring of the
