That the report published in the
SIGNAL last Saturday that the Ladd
Metals Co. contemp plated building a
smelter at Landore and had been
given ground for "a site, was true,
there isno longer any doubt
From C. W. Jones, who was on

Thomas G. Jones, who is owner OF

ground, on which to locate the smell

town of Landore, and right at the

of which decided to the Ladd Metals
company, 25 feet of ground, which
they needed to place their works

The One Who Suffers.

The papers say Mrs. Tyner, the
wife of the postoffice official who is
being tried for completely with fraud
in the postoffice department, is
"standing by him" Mrs Burton
stood by her husband. Mrs. Machen
stood by her husband. All the wives
of these men who are getting into
trouble, are standing by them, even
as mother Eve stood by Adam.
But when woman gets into trouble
it is always question whether or not
her husband will stand by her. He
may suddenly get good aud forget
the for better-or-w r-worse clause in the
oath he took. But women are faith
full. They are the truest things in
this part of Gods universe. Far off
in the heavens, in the milkey way or
in the great black patches of unknown
space beyond, there may be creatures
more faithful and true to man than
woman; but not here. Their faith is
one of the beautiful things Of this
earth. 1t grows IN muck; it t'thrives
in dark places; it blossoms most lux
uriantly in evil ways and crooked
paths. But it is one Of Gods fairest
flowers for all that. 1t is as fair as
the morning this faith OF women in
faithless men, and it is as much of a
miracle as the unfolding of the lily.
For it passeth all understanding. -
