TEMPER BEAUTY'S ENEMY.
& Calm and Placid Manner and Way
of Looking at Life Conducive to
Growth of Physical Charm.

Temper has much TO do with the de-
%strUcticn o. a fine ana delicately tint
ed skin. You are familiar with the
woman who becomes pale with anger
or purple with rage. yellow with dis
appointment or green with envy.
The pallOr. the purple patches. and
the jaundice are apt to become fixed
and a woman whose complexion con-
sists of a scheme of color in which
these tints predominant, distinctly
bears the color imprint of the sere,
the yellow leaf.
A bad complexion is sometimes the
outward and visible sign of a lad tenn
per. hence serenity is It be cultivated
as an aid to natural beauty. says a
writer in the American Queen. Wor.
rying about household matters and
servants is to be avoided at all cost
as tending to accelerate the fading
of June's roses from the cheeks If the
not too youthful and the temptation
of the active minded, always to be
doing something, mUst be S renuously
resisted.
Unless you have p'enty of rest and
relaxation, botn of mind and muscle,
your mirror will soon b.g'n to cast
reflections on your face and tiny little
wrinkles will appear n by one. as
the stars come out on a SINNERS
night. But when soft slumber al.ures
thee" be careful not to sleep with he
hand under the cheek. as this certainly
tends to numb and wrinkle the skin.
Another point to attend to is not to
allow the jaw to drop when you fall
asleep; this is apt to foster the appear
ance of lines on either side of the
mouth.
Undoubtedly bad temper is not the
only enemy Of beauty. but also the
first cause of many nervous disorders,
and many of the ills that follow a pad
digestion.
Who has ever seen a really happy
woman with an unwholesome looking
skin? Worry. continuous lrettlhs'
envy and righteousness not only wear
the face with ugly lines. but destroy
the foundations of the entire constltu-
ton.
Therefore beware, and use the only
solvent remedy. Cultivate cai'1ness'
courage. cheerfulness. amiability ana
affection. and as the sun drives the
fogs of night before it, so the ugliness
will give place. if not to beauty. then
to charm.

Goldfield, Nevada.

The last issue of the Rifle Tele-

regarding the Nevada gold fields,
which we publish, rs 1t will interest
many HERALD readers:
GOLDFIELD, Nevada, Jan. q, 1905.
Mr.. c. W. Taughenbaugh, Rifle, Colo:
FRIEND CHARLEs-Your favor of
January 2lst Mt hand and contents
noted. Will pen you a few lines in
reply, giving you my views regarding
this camp or rather conditions as they
exist. The country in general is a
vast desert with little vegetation and
less water. The formation on the
surface is mostly porphyry with
quartz or quartzite dykes running
through. These dykes or blowouts
are the mineral bearing viens and is
where the ore has been disclosed.
The few producing mines that are
here carry very rich ore, the second
best mine producing about $8OO,OO0
during the past year, but there are
only few mines that are producing
and few Thousand prospects that
are not.
Every plot Of ground within miles
of Goldfield is located unless it is on
something that no one considers any
good. i did not get here In time to
secure any claims, or thought l was
too late, although there have been
claims located since came, but some
of them were fractions, or where the
work had been neglected, and some
Of them IwOuld not pay the recording
fees for deed to them. People are
tramping the hills prospecting in all
directions, but on located ground if
they find indications Of ore try to Sc
cure ground.
There are numerous small camps
throughout the state that are attract
ing attention and about once month
a stampede occurs for some new ex-
citement.
Goldfield has about 5000 inhabi-
tants. When came here it was
city mostly Of tents, but has since
been built Of frame and adobe, but
there are still hundreds living in
tents. The weather thus far has been
mild with some snow, but not cold.
Everything is high priced, day
board $35 per month and rooms at
most any price from 50 per week in Il
tent to 20 or more for an unfurnished
room in an adobe house per month.
Wood sells at $ls per cord and lum-
ber at $40 per Thousand, other things
in proportion. The health Of the
town is hard to determine as 1t is not
reported, but from what ] can learn
there is considerable sickness here.
