HOW TO AVOID COAL SMOKE.

In a lecture recently DR.. David T. Day,
chief of the division of mineral resources,
of the geological survey, gave some valua-
BILE advice regarding the use of bituminous
coal, telling how to get rid of SCOT. He
said: If at the time the soft caal fire is
started another fire of paper be started
above the coal, the SCOT. which always
rises with the building of these fires, will
be destroyed, doing away with the most
annoying feature of ~bituminous smoke"

= HOW TO PREVENT SNORING.

To prevent snoring a small cap is fitted
over the chin and held in place by a band
around the head fastened to the chin cap
with elastic rubber bands. This allows
perfect freedom of the lower jaw, while
at the same time it prevents its dropping
down after the subject is asleep and thus
prevents snoring.

him to push the project through to COM

Central City Register Call: Idaho Springs
is evidently getting jealous of Central City
and proposes to have connections with the
proposed Denver, Yankee Hill & North
western railway, branch line to be run
from Peck Flats to the Springs, which will,
if plans carry, give them an outlet with the
Moffat road as the branch will presumably
be built to join the Moffat road at Mann
moth gulch, at the head of Boulder park.
The newroad would thus help Idaho Springs
and adjoining territory as well as all the
western sections of Gilpin county. Idaho
Springs turned down the proposition for
the Yankee road when it was first broached,
but now sees the advantages which would
accrue from the connections to be made, and
SO they changed their minds, and quite
wisely too, we think.

there is another reason why the burro should
be held sacred and be better treated. The
burro has made the west. The iron horse
