THE MANHATTAN COMBINATION MINING COMPANY owns
two claims known IS the Black Mammoth and Black Mammoth No. l.
The ground is mountainous. 1t has the appearance of a big black butte.
For miles around Manhattan it can be seen, so rugged are its groupings
and 81 strongly is it marked by naturalization. A tremendous ledge
u ms through the property. 1t lies in the center of the Manhattan Mining
District and within a few hundred feet of the gulch in which the town
of Manhattan is plated On these two claims, in the opinion of Sol
Camp, the eminent consulting and mining engineer, (who for a long while
has been superintendent of the famous January mine belonging to the
two years., will be found the mother lode of the entire Manhattan Min
ing District. Assays taken from the surface groupings are as good as
any in the district. 1t needs but development work, in the opinion OF
the experts who have examined the property to make it Manhattan
"top notcher'
The property is fully paid for and is owned outright by the com
pany. The company has no liabilities.
OF the entire capitalization of 100000 shares, of the par value of
n dollar each, 100000 shares have been accepted by the original
owners in payment of the property, and 100000 shares have been placed
in the treasury of the company to be sold by the company to provide
funds for development purposes. The capitalization is moderate, but the
treasury capital is large, and sufficient cash will thus be raised TIC develop
the property in a minerlike way; to provide funds for the erection OF
mills, if necessary, and to put the company o n a sound financial basis
The first proceeds from the sale of the treasury stock at 10 cents per
share have already initiated a campaign of development work second to
none. Full shifts OF men have been put to work to open up the lodges
and make a producing mine in the shortest possible order. If, as has
of development work reveals the presence of a rich re body of perma-
nent depth, it behooves all who are interested to Immediately telegraph
their reservations of shares to the fiscal agents, Patrick, Elliott & Camp,
lest the price of the stock be advanced before a letter will reach. The
right is reserved to advance the price of shares without notice.

A Fortune Maker

To those who have watched the progress of events in Tonopah and
Goldfed since the inception of these camps, the opportunity that is

facts and figures ire submitted:

get $4,000 for that block of stock o O. either the San Francisco Stock
and Exchange Board II the Goldfeld Stock Exchange.

That block of stock is now selling at a valuation of $500.

worth 81, $50 according to current quotations.

of stock is now worth $4,000.
$3.50 bought 1000 shares of Montana Tonopah in 1902; it is also
worth about $4,000.

now worth 5000.

Gentlemen: Last summer I suffered with the
worst case Of eczema 1 ever saw. Our doctor
said it was the most aggravating case he ever
had in all his practice. 1t had covered my face
and hands and had almost covered my entire
body. I could not sleep at night and had used
so many different remedies I had about given up
ever being cured, as I continued to get worse
all the time. After spending S25. 90 for medicine
which did me no good I saw your advertisement
of D. D.. D. and as 1 had tried everything else I
decided to give it a trial, and to the surprise of
myself and family I was entirely cured after
using six bottles. I believe one or two bottles
will cure any ordinary case, and 1 am ordering
this for a man living in Morristown. The flesh
producer is for the sam party. I will appreci-
ate anything you may do in the way of price or
express charges. Yours very truly,

Canadian National Literature.

Canada is coming to her own, ma
tionally as well as commercially and
industrially. She claims the twenti-
eth century as pre-eminently her
growing time, her period of expan-
sion.
And along with growth in material
things this hardy land of the north is
developing a national literature. Not
a few of her promising sons and
daughters are contributing, in pro-
ducts of mind and pen, to the loftier
note of civilization; and the high ed
ucational standard of the country is
thus yielding fruit.
There has therefore sprung up Il
company of writer's, mostly native
born, who are doing their share in
voicing the ideals and aspirations OF
their homeland, and in translating in.
to literature the romantic history, the
many-sided racial life, and the virile
characteristics of the Canadian peo-

To Tell Next Years Weather.

To predict weather a year in ad-
vance is the latest fact that scientists
are trying to accomplish, according
to John Elfreth Watkins. The Tech
meal World Magazine for November
contains an article by this writer in
which he tells of the latest advances
in weather forecasting and of the
new United States Astrophysical Lab
oratory in Washington. Variations
of the heat radiation of the sun are
the basis for the new science of long
distance weather predicting; and
special instruments have been devils
ed to meet the requirements of this
special work. One of the most inter-
esting of these instruments is the
bolometer, which will detect varia-
tions in temperature of the millionth
part of a degree. Through the work
of this branch of the weather blu
reau, the government hopes to be
able to tell the farmer whether or not
he will have a wet, dry, warm, or
cold season, so that he may regulate
his crops accordingly. The aims and
methods of this new science are given
a very popular and interesting pre-
sentation and the article is we'll illus
trated.
