periods in their history as varied as
those in the life of an individual.
why should it be the case that these
good mines remain unoperated?
Let us consider few instances
mentioned by the Mining and Scion.
tific Press, Practically all of them
hinge on mismanagementin in one way
or another. In one instance the
owners devote too little attention to
the metallurgical side Of the ques
ton, and too much to the develop
ment
Another instance, q commoner
one in the Black Hills, is an undo
veloped mine This mine has pro-
duced a great amount of gold, it
possesses a first-class mill, every
thing ready to operate, The cause
of the closing is the pushing of pro-
'duction of rich ore as rapidly as
possible, so as to make good show
ing as possible, without keeping up
an equivalent amount of advance de-
velopment. The ore too has become
less rich and more refractory with
depth, yet this change has not been
provided for. The property now
needs capital for new development
work and new milling fac c'lities.
The pith of the matter is that de-
velopmcnt must be carried forward
contemporaneously with the extrac,
tion of the reserves or the life of q
mine is limited to the removal of all
the ore in sight. This may oe q
matter of several years or only few
months-the principal remains the
same.
In both of these cases the proper
ties can, and doubtless will be agar
operated at a profit. Yet the un
fortunate shut down would never
have occurred had the equality o
development and extraction beer
main tained. Mining Review.

Don't VIKING.

Some one has said: "Whining
is poor business; it Identifies
you at once with the under dog,
and does not get you any sym
pathy at ALL" The man who
whines confesses his weakness,
his inability to match his environ.
ment. He cannot command the
situation. 1t is too much for
him: all he can do is to kick
and complain. The wilmer never
gets anywhere; never accomplish
es anything.
The man or woman who uses
up vitality in complaining, finding
fault with circumstances kicking
against fate; who is always pro.
testing that there is no justice in
the world, that merit is not re-
warded, that the times are out of
Joint, and that everything is
wrong, is put down-and right
ly-as a weakling, with a small,
narrow mind. Large. minded
men and women do not spend
their energies in whining; if they
meet an obstruction they go
through it and pass on about
their business. They know that
all tier time and strength must
be concentrated on the work of
making a life. The wilmer not
only wastes his time and strength,
but he prejudlces people against
him. No one feels inclined to
help a man who is always com
planning of conditions and blam-
ing his "hard luck" Somehow
we get the feeling that he does
not deserve help, so much as a
scolding.
The practical business man has
no sympathy with the man who
complains that he cannot get a
job. " A great many employers
object to having people around
who complain that "luck has al
ways been against Them" they
fear, perhaps, not without reason,
that they will create evil condi-
tions. The complaining person,
the wilmer, by ms own conduct,
places himself at a fearful disad-
vantage with a possible employer
nobody wants the mau who
poses as victim of "hard luck, )"
who says he cannot get job.
Everybody wants the man who
is in great demand.-Success.
