The woman who is businesslike
about her shopping carries in her purse
or wrist bag a small envelope contain
ing a number Of gummed white slips

black ink, or, better STILL typewritten.

OF white paper is covered with the ad-
dresses. The other side of the paper is
then spread with mucilage, and when
this is dry the sheet is cut into little
slips, each one containing the name
and address OF the shopper. These
small slips save ones time and spare
one the annoyance Of being obliged TO
spell out for the clerk one or more
names in the address and then leaving
the counter with the uncomfortable
feeling that perhaps. after all, the clerk
has made a mistake and there viii be
some delay in delivering the goods. or
that they may be left at some neigh

nInnIsets In the neu.

One Of our English friends says she
always washes her blankets in dew.
This sounds like rather difficult op-
Grafton. but is really an easy one The
blankets are put over the clothesline
and thoroughly but gently beaten with
a rattan furniture beater until all loose
dust is removed. Then, early in the
morning, they are spread out fiat on
the wet grass and left there, like Gid
cons fleece, until the grass is dried.
then turned and summed a bit longer
before being folded and brought I'm.
The process Is repeated three or four
mornings, as may be deemed necessary.
The great advantage of this is that the
blankets never lose their new woolly
look. OF course it would not be salts
factory if the blankets were stained
and spotted. but from a sGuftary point
Of view the prolonged sun bath is ad-
mirable, and our friends blankets al

they had passed through several wash

MINING NEWS.

mine on Tuesday last in Ell Pas,

city. The price was $4,000 il
cash and the money was paid
The purchasers are H. NJ. Patter
son, ]. Pearhart and a man named
Kronkard. Mr.. Pearhart is nov
in Douglas and will go at once t,
the mine and begin work on i
with a good sized force. The
ESmeralda has the reputation o
being an excellent property and its
operation will add to the trade OF
Douglas.
Bisbee Miner: A carload of ore
was shipped, says the Tombstone
Prospector, from the York Roberts
mine and another carload will be
shipped later. A carload was also
shipped from the Consolidated
shaft today and two cars were
placed to be loaded from the Comet.
The shipments of ore from this
district are increasing, and from
two to three carloads per day are
being taken out. P. B. Warnekros
expects to ship carload in the
course of the next few DAYS, and
several others contemplate doing
the same thing. Douglas Gray is
still here engaged in sampling
dumps and is finding a number
that will pay to ship. 1t is ex-
pected that carload will be ship

longs to Colonel Herring.

of the we'll known citizens of the
Turkey creek mining district, is
making preparations to begin work
on his Ramona mining property

property that promises to open
up a wonderful mine. He has sew

strous iron dixie that stands out of
the mountain side like a great
black wall, the ledge being nearly
200 feet wide and showing some
gold values on the surface. There
has been very little work done on
this ledge yet, but if the owners
expectations are realized it will be
very rich proposition when depth
is reached. The ledge is visible for
thousands of feet and if it should
prove to carry good values, there
will be a lot of work done in that
neighborhood in the near future, as
the ledge is located by other parties
on both north and south extern
