Not very many days after. when |
was just getting my chicken soup nicely
digested, Mr.. Stork sent his invitation
to Uncle Fox, and I offered my services
as butler. Mr. Stork likes style, and |
got the job. 1 need not tell you that
was able to repeat my little ruse. Mr..
Stork served frog bisque in tall vase,
which was just as easy for me, being
built in this convenient way, you see
MIR. Stork got what was left, while Uncle
Fox leaned up against the vase and
looked hungry. l did my buttling as
quickly as possible and slipped away be

After all" said the Mud Turtle,

to be cunning like the Fox is better; to
be harmless as the turtle (dove) is all
right enough, but the wisdom of the
serpent is best of all.

WHY WE SELL STOCK

We have a great property, but we need
money to develop It If farmer owned
to cultivate it with it would take years OF
toll for him to get money enough to buy
proper machinery to work 1t 20 advantage So
it is with mine. IF we went to a capitalist
he would demand the lions share; but we
believe that the American people will be glad
to come in with and help to make
this property the greatest Copper mine on
the continent. So we go to YOU, relying on
your judgment and sound common sense, and
ask YOU to join with US, man to man, share
and share alike, in this great enterprise.
With YOUR aid, we should make a second
United Verde of this property. With unity
there Is nardly any limit Ut; TO wnat can De &C
will be proud TO be a stockholder in the Con
soiidated Copper Greek Mining Company.

A young man had been calling now
and then on a young lady, when one
night, as he sat in the parlor waiting
for her to come down, her mother en-
tered the room instead. and asked him
in a very grave, stern way what his
intentions were.
He turned very red, and was about to
stammer some incoherent reply, when
suddenly the young lady called down
from the head of the stairs:

OUR BIG ADVANTAGES OVER
OTHER GREAT COPPER MINES
All the large Copper mines that we have .
| quoted had to expend from one to four /
million dollars in smelling plants. There
are THREE large independent smelters i
within hauling distance of our property,
| obviating all necessity on our part of this /
tremendous outlay of money. Therefore, /
| all we need to do is to concentrate our
ore, an inexpensive process, haul the con-
centrates to the smelter, and there re-
ceive money. This puts practically. /
| in the same position that these other large /
Copper mines attained only after the i
penditure of millions.
Remember this company all of its
property, free and clear; it does not owe a

CHEER MAN WHO
CUT THEIR PAY
Insurance Agents Hear Some
Plain Statements from
Charles Il. Hughes.

New York. May 23.-Charles E.
Hughes. for the first time since he was
appointed counsel Of the Armstrong
legislative committee, publicly discussed
the work Of reforming the life-insur-
ance business last night. It was at a
banquet at the hotel Savoy, given by
the life underwriters Of New York to
the executive committee Of the Nina
tional. ~ @-a
The members Of this body are the
leading hfe-insuran S agents 1nas of the
sums thru the reductions in commits
sions enforced by the Armstrong legis-
lation. During the investigation Mr..
Hughes was exonerated by these men.
who regarded him as the destroyer of
their livelihood.
When he arose to speak he was
cheered again and again, the agents
standing up to wave napkins and shout
the louder: All thru his speech he was
applause, and when he finished tumult
of cheers shook the banquet hall. :
In his speech Mr.. Hughes declared
it would be idle and fatuous on the
part Of the agents to strive for larger
commissions, as the public was deter
mined to have economy Of management
in the companies. He predicted that
other states would regard the new in
surance laws Of New York as model
legislation. which in the end would give
uniformity thruout' greater part of
the country.
"Mr. Hughes started by saying he.
was glad to be in the company of in:
domitable optimists. - Then he showed
he was something Of humorist by.
saying: ... =, z..-..

greater Importance than that everyone
connected with the administration of

and always his responsibility to the

OF his work. It has been forgetfulness
Of that responsibility and sense of
autocracy and Of despotic power which
has created the evils which it has been
the endeavor of the legislature to end. -

ROGERS BACKS NEW ROAD
STANDARD OIL MAN PROMOTES
LINE DESTINED TO BECOME
GREAT COAL CARRIER.

Journal Special Service. -. >"
New York, May 2s.-It has become
known in financial circles that II, III.
Rogers of the Standard Oil company IS
the promoter Of the new railroad which
practically parallels the Baltimore &
Ohio, and Pennsylvania, thru the Appa-
lachian range to Norfolk, Va, dis
tance Of over 400 miles. The road is
known as the Deepwater and Tidewater
railroad and Is to connect the new
river and Pocahontas coal fields with
Norfolk. It is said 81 100000 is being
expended every month on construction.
This is the first. new trunk line con
struction in the United States for many
years, and it is the only trunk line that
has ever. been projecte ed to run from
starting point to destination without
the slightest preference in towns and
cities in the interior. Thru it's entire
length there will be no grades more
than ~ feet to the mile, except eight
miles across the Alleghenies where
there is a maximum grade of Is feet.
The road is probably destined to be
the greatest coal carrier in existence.
