The Tonopah Bonanza has been au-
thoriatively informed that plans and
specifications are under considerat-
ion for the construction of large re-
duction plant for the Tonopah Mining
Company and that within three months
ground will be broken somewhere in
the vicinity of the Mizpah property
for its reception. The size and cap
acity Of the mill has not been stated
but as the management of the company
does not propose to do things half
way it is safe to assume that the
works will have a capacity of not less
than 500 tons of ore per day.. and
that it will be one of the largest ever
operated in the State.

At that time Mr.. Bamberger stated
that . battle was on between the Am.

troll Of the silver markets Of the world.
For some time the battle has been
waged without great advantage on
either side, but the onicials of the
American trust were confident that
they had victory in sight and were
predicting higher prices for silver.
Since that time the price, which was

A young Birmingham matron in q letter to an out-of-town friend enclosed several samples of the newest shirtwaist ma terials, and received by return mail the following reply:
 You may, you dearest Katie mine, Regard this as your valentine; My hope is that unlike my last, Twill bring from you an answer fast. Pray why did you neglect to write, And by word dispel my fright, Lest rheumatism or ruthless grippe Had stayed your hand or sealed your lips l raised racket and a fuss So tell me why you acted thus. The samples sent quite caught my eye, So now I'm asking you to try To let me know the cost of these, And then return to me-and please Put in the address of the store So l can order. One thing more How must l have them made, and where !? I'll promise this is aii-so there! l would l could your dear face view My dearest one, so good and true. And now I'll close this rhyme so fine With so much love from me and mine

 Where" said a woman on board ship bound for the place. where is Bermu- da?"
 "It is FOO miles from New York, in the longitude of Halifax and the latitude of Charleston" replied the man who had written guide book on the subject
 "Oh," she said, sileneed but uncon- vinced Then after a pause she gather ed courage and added:
 Are the islands East or West Indies?
 There was slight but perceptible bending forward of every woman in the party for not a dame of them knew. But many man present was surprised when the historian answered:
 They are neither East nor West In dies. They have no connection whatever with any other chain or system of islands and are more remote from neighbors than any other islands on the globe"

I mean normally. for whatever act is per- formed normally is always correct, says a wrl5er in the Courier-Journal. What is normal poise? Normal boise is natural poise, pose of strength and confidence; an erect, natural carriage of the body over a strong base of center. In standing, this strong base of center should always be on the balls of the feet, of one or both feet, as the case may be.
 Look at a child, a young child. before it has been coddled, pampered and squeezed out of it's normal state. It does not have a sunken chest. protrudng ab- domen and bent knee.
 Look at the average woman If com pelled to stand for five minutes, the knee bends and sine shifts uncomfortably from one foot to the other; if compelled to stand for half an hour. her face takes on a look almost of haggardness, caused by the weariness she is enduring The legs become trembly and she wants to sink. The law of gravity is such that 1t is nat ural for the heavier part to seek the earth, but the laws of nature are also such that it is natural for the vital part or center to furnish the limbs of our body with suf- ficient strength to do our bidding without excessive fatigue. A weak person, there fore, cannot be well poised. Whence comes our strength? From the air we breathe, from the food and drink taken into the stomach. and from the exercise we take to distribute that nourishment As strength is possible only through the medium of the vital organs, it is impera- tive that these organs should be kept all ways in a condition of normal activity. It is obvious that they must not be squeezed out of place. neither must they be allowed to sag and press one upon an other.

Of Interest TO Women.

The average woman knows as much about geology as a kitten knows about the solar system. It is all land or sea. darkness or light That is enough to know so long as there are always strong men creatures to find paths and plan ways and discover reasons. comments a recent writer.
 There have been women warriors to lead even forlorn hopes to victory; feminine diplomats who have matched wits, and made winning, with the wisest ad- visors of every Emperor. But there have been no petticoated discoverers no wom- en who have hazarded storms and dan gers to find new worlds in the uncon- quered waters.
 That there must be a reason for this limitation is plain to every one; and a clever man has suggested that the cause really lies in the feminine disbelief in charts and eompasses.
 No woman is going to admit that a fussy little needle, vibrating in a round brass box, knows more about direction than she does. It has not been lack of courage that has kept the fair ad- venturer from stranger seas. It has been because, in her soul, she loathes the marked channels and the north point ing steel, and will sail no course but that of her own sweet will.
