Mr. Walsh had the following TO say, in
substance In common with a great
MANY o,hers n oar section. | believe that
we have the making Of great producing
district. The veins are large aud assay
in MANY instances very nicely at grass
roots. The q1atiz appears 20 be of a
milling nature. ard thus will not have to
be OF very high values. The main thing
that keeps the district from being opened
up is the fact that the land has been pat.
ented for agricultural purposes, in the
main. and by people who do not turn
their attention to mining. 1t is easy to
be seen tina; i i a difficult matter for any
one now to 90 in there aud find any va

the patented land is concerned the OWL

that the south slope OF Squaw mountain

done in recent years lie has uncovered

Last weeks Courier in speaking of the
Centennial mine at Georgetown, states:
A good tonnage oil ore is being taken GU,
of the Centennial. and on "Wednesday a
carload OF smelling material was sent to
Denver. During the week shot brought
down a solid piece Of mineral which
weighed over seven tons. AT that time
it was not known the full extent Of the
ore bodies, and it was a most agreeable
surprise to Manager Kennedy when he
discovered the vein was rapidly gaining
IN width. Mill runs show the ore to be
worth from SIoo to $3.50 in gold to the
ton, besides carrying good values in sill
yer and copper. The Centennial is rapid
ly being developed, and it is safe pre-
diction to say that it gives promise of
becoming one of the heaviest producers
in Clear Creek county in comparatively
short time Extensive development work
is in progress. and large ore bodies are
held in reserve.

I have originated a treatment for the cure of nervous debility drains and losses, threatened or actual impotency, and all other conditions commonly termed sexual weakness that I am anxious to present to the notice of all men who suffer in this way. There is much that cannot tell in the limited space of a newspaper article, and I, therefore, invite all to visit me at my commodous offices where l will be glad to meet them and go into the de- tails. Such men as find 1t impossible to call are requested to write me, and they need only state how they suffer. and I will tell them what to do to be quickly cured and @ncIdse' booklet that takes up all phases of the subject and explains my original method fully. all free.
 I have always maintained that sexual weakness was a disorganization of the entire system, not merely of the sexual organs themselves, and that to cure the condition merely local means were en- tirely useless but that, on the contrary, the entire constitution would have to be favorably acted upon before a perma- nent cure could be brought about.
 Are You Only Half a ManP
 Anyone who has ever felt the embar- rassment knows the frghtfulness of It. knows that it made him feel that he was after all only half a man. Anyone who has risen in the morning half tired with the knowledge that there had been losses during the night. has felt the discomfort and shame of his weakness. Anyone who has watched himself getting weaker and weaker day by day, with less of the virile man in him, has hung his head and won dered what the end would be.
 How Dr. Hathaway Cures.
