A Chicago ma has observed that,
"Good deeds are bette. than real es-
tate deeds-some of the latter are
worthless. Act kindly and gently,
show sympathy and lend a helping
hand. You cannot possibly lose by it,"
Most men appreciate a kind word and
encouragement more than substantial
help. There are persons in this conf
munity who might truthfully say
"My good friend, cheer up. A few
doses of Chamberlain's cough Remedy

WILL REvOLUTIoNIzE SMELLING.
A New Invention That Will Prove q
Boom TO This Section.


The Salt Lake Herald of December 4,
says that Henry r. Ellis, the well-known
assayer and metallurgist of this city, is
the inventor of a process which promises
to revolutionize present smelling meth
DDS and place within the reach of even
the small mine owner and the owner Of
low grade tailings and ore dumps,
the OF earning substantial profits
and at the same time free him from the
chains which bind him to the operators
of custom smelling works. For two
years Mr.. Ellis has been working out his
method and he now announces that its
practicability has been demonstrated to
a certainty and within a very short time
a company which has been formed for
the purpose will have a testing plant
operating on a large scale in this city.
The cost of a plant to handle from ten
to twenty tons per day, Mr.. Ellis says,
would be about $500. the cost of larger
works being correspondingly low.
Straight gold, gold and silver, or gold,
silver and lead ores. all respond perfect
ly to the treatment, and for $3.50 to So
per ton the values a Ee concentrated
to such form that, where there is a CON-
binatIon Of the metals, the product will
only need melting into bullion.
Yesterday afternoon, before a large
number of interested men, Mr.. Ellis con
Quoted a demonstration on several sacks
Of tailings from the old Dry Valley prop
erty, some ten miles from Phoebe, Ne
vada. The assay value OF these tailings
was 6.3 per cent lead, 1917 ouLces silver,
and SO in gold per too.
When the cleanup was made on the
test run of tailings from the old Dry
Valley property below Phoebe, by the
Ellis fume arresting process, it was
found that the assay value of the product
was ninety-three ounces silver, S24 gold
and 81 per cent lead per ton. Consider
ing that the material was the hardest to
treat yet submitted to Mr.. Ellis, and the
fume fiue rather leaky, the result is a
most phenomenal one.
As was stated, the value Of the tailings
before treatment was SO per cent lead,
1917 ounces silver and So in gold per ton.
The recovery amounted to 81 per cent Of
the glod, 1855 per cen OF the silver and
all Of the lead. The charge as it went
to the furnace was mixed with 8 per
cent Of salt to affect the chlorination Of
the ore.
The invention is a very simple con-
trivance, 10 which water is pumped
through a pipe, thereby creating a
vacuum, which draws the fumes from
the furnace and mingles them thorough
ly with the water under hydraulic press
ure.
The result OF Mr.. Ellis invention was
the talk of the mining and smelling fra
ternity, aud on all sides the opinion was
expressed that he had hit the nail o N the
head and that his method would prove a
boom to the ore producer

The NEvADAN this issue r%eproduces in
another column an article on a new pro-
cess for saving values in smelling ores,
which will be of special interest to mine
owners and tributers. If inventor Ellis
really has a process that will do all, or
part, of what he claims for it, why it
means much for this section. We hope
that Ellis invention will prove to be
