5ous and walks out into a cold world
with heavy heart and light purse,
he forgets that the sun is still shining
and with his lips corroded with discon-

worth living. Here is the way to look
at that; if life is not worth living, what
is? As our old friend, Bill Shakespeare

The copper era., 1904-03-24

Few people realize that copper min- ing far sUrpasses that of either gold or silver. The output of the copper mines exceeds that of gold in value by nearly sl5, 900, 900. As dividend payers 1t has long been recognized that some Of the big copper properties are with out equals. It takes more capital and time to put a big copper producer in the dividend list, but in most Of the gigantic undertakings. with the aim Of developing great copper mines, the returns were marvellous. As to the future Of copper the leading author ities declare that there is little ground for anything but good expectations if the metal can be produced at a reason able cost. Demand keeps pace with tbe supply and new discoveries not more than outweigh the use of the red metal. The. growth in the use of cop per in the last few years has scarcely found parallel in any industry. which fact is due largely on account of this being an age of electricity.
