NUT PROPERTY PROVES
RICH WITH DEVELOPMENT

In every detail of development the
Pin Nut is more han meeting the ex-
petcations of it's owners. Development
work is being directed on company ac-
IA to sinking a main working shaft
at a point several hundred feet west of
the Consolidated line. Decidedly salts
factory values are shown. although the
shaft is not exposing the richer sections
of the vein. No attempt will be made
to producing ore until considerable
depth has been reached. From it's con-
tiguity to the great Consolidated there
seems not the slightest question as to
the property developing into a great
mine.-Manhattan Mail.

Mistress and Servant.

A woman should insist upon being
mistress of her own kitchen, but, I'M
less she possesses self-control, patience
and tact. she is really just as unfit to
manage her servants as q child. 1t IS
a very true saying that a man or Won-
an who has not learned to control sell
IS not fit to control others. If a woman
cannot 90 into her kitchen without los
ing her patience or losing her temper,
she would do better to stay out OF It.
Fault must be found, but with ser
wants. as with children, it should be
fin a quiet. dignifcd way, and a proper
time should lie chosen FOR it. 4 woman
who does not know any better than to
take a time when girl is particular
Nv busy, OF has some special piece OF
work she is trying to get through, such
as washing, ironing, or getting dinner,
will never be likely to have good ser
vice. If she scolds or nags she at once
lowers herself to the level of her ser
want. and loses the respect which every
mistress of a house should strive to
deserve from those about her.

WINTER WEAKNESS
DR.. Williams Pink Pills the Tonic
That Most People Need for
Blood and Nerves.

In winter the air of the close rooms in
which we spend so much of the time
does not furnish enough oxygen to the
lungs 70 burn out the foul matter in the
blood. In the cold season we do not exer-
else as much and the skin and kidneys do
not throw of the waste matter as freely
as usual. The system becomes overloaded
with poisonous matter, and too feeble
to throw it off. Relief can be had only
through the use of remedy that will
promptly and thoroughly purify and
strengthen the blood, and the one best
adapted for this purpose is the great
blood tonic known as DR.. Williams Pink
Pills.

full this year.
Easter brides are already planning

White millinery is highly approved
for all dressup occasions.
All manner of quaint old brooches
are used to pin up the veil.
And, by the way, some of the wells
worn would make you gasp.
The little feather toques in pale col
ors are wonderfully becoming.
Lovely tinted Innings are an impor-
tant feature Of most garments.
Silver embroidery is especially love-
ly against lavender or old rose.
Just a strap of velvet ribbon does
for a sleeve in the evening gown.

Vatican plaits have been received
by some famous dressmakers to give
long back line to bodice and skirt
frocks, but while this idea is in its
successful development picturesque and
charming, it needs skillful handling.
A charming model Of this sort was
black velvet, with it's Vatican plat
held down as far as the girdle top by
fiat little bows of black satin, whose
centers were marked by little buckles,
emanated from celebrated Partisan
establishment and was eminently sue
cessful. But only 4 maker of talent
! and Il wearer of graceful figure could
make the most Of its possibilities.
Velvet is more and more a royal ia
vorite, used for everything from negli
gee and street dress to full evening
toilet Plum velvet walking suits with
circular skirts and bolero trimmed in
| handsome applique embroidery, are
plentiful as blackberries in June. And,
! by the way, there need be no hesita
ton about investing in a bolero if the
! long coat, basqued coat or caraco is not
becoming, for the invincible bolero is
asserting itself as confidently as ever,
even though it is not so new as it's
rivals.
The short empire coat, though seen
less often than the long empire coat
is distinctly jaunty if well made, and
is possible with a walking skirt, while
the long empire coat is absurd in such
company. A popular actress, noted for
her smart gowns, was seen recently in
Il Parma violet broadcloth, whose
plated skirt cleared the ground by
three inches. The coat was a short
empire model and the only trimming
of both skirt and coat consisted of vel
vet matching the cloth and set under
cut-out loZenges being framed in very
narrow stitched bands of cloth. A

shades Of violet slightly between the

Around the fireside or about the
well-lighted family reading table dur
ing the winter evenings the children
and grOwn-upS can play with their
wits and see how many words can be
made.
90 people making the greatest mum
Der of words will each receive a little
box containing a $40 gold piece.
10 people will each win one box con-
tanning So gold piece.
300 people will each win box con-
tanning 81 in paper money and one
person who makes the highest number
of words over all contestants will re-
ceive box containing 500 in gold.
1t is really a most fascinating bit of
fun to take up the list evening after
evening and see how many words can
be added.
A few rules are necessary for abso-
lutte fair play.
Any word authorized by Webster's
dictionary will be counted, but no
name of person. Both the singular
and plural can be used. as for instance
grape" and grapes
The letters in "Y-I-O-Grape-Nuts"
may be repeated in the same word.
Geographical names authorized by
Webster will be counted.
Arrange the words in alphabetical
classes, all those beginning with A to-
gether and those beginning with E to
come under E, etc.
When you are writing down the
words leave some spaces, in the A, e,
mr. IN N LOT s
new words come to you, for they will
spring into mind every evening.
1t is almost certain that some con
testants will tie with others In such
cases a prize identical IN value and
character with that offered in that
class shall be awarded to each. Each
one will be requested to send with the
list of words a plainly written letter
describing the advantages of Grape
Nuts, but the contestant is not re-
quired to purchase a pkg. These let
tiers are not TO contain poetry, or fan
cy fourishes, but simple, truthful
statements of fact. For illustration:
A person may have experienced some
incipient or chronic ailS traceable to
unwise selection Of food that failed to
give the body and brain the energy,
health and power desired. Seeking bet
ter conditions a change in food is made
and Grape-Nuts and cream used in
place Of the former. diet. Suppose one
quits the meat, fried potatoes, starchy,
sticky messes of half-cooked oats or
wheat and cuts out the coffee. Try,
say. for breakfast a bit of fruit, dish
of Grape-Nuts and cream, two soft
boiled eggs, a slice Of hard toast and

Husband the Master.

Most married women imagine that
they are mistresses in their own
houses, but that, it appears, unless
they actually hold the deed to the
property, is a delusion. 1T should be
distinctly understood" said Judge
Swartz, of Norristown, Pa, in a re-
cent ease, that the husband is mas
Ger of his own house. The wife has
no right to invite or admit her mother
or any one else to the house against
her husbands will" The judge was
good enough to ada that the wife
might 90 to see her mother whenever
she wished, provided she did not go so
often as to neglect her duty to her
husband ana her home, but he did not
say that a man must see that the
kindling wood was chopped and the
water pals full before he INDUCED in

after you have been 2 or 3 weeks on
the GrapeNuts training you write
statement of how you used to be and
how you are now. The simple facts
will interest others and surprise your

on permission, but we often tell the

Remember 331 persons will win
prizes, which will be awarded in an
exact and just manner as soon as the
list can be counted after April 80,
1906. Every contestant will be sent a

agreed. The company is well known
all over the world for absolute fidelity
to its agreements and every single one
of the 331 winners may depend on re-

Many persons might feel it useless
to contest, but when one remembers
the great number Of prizes the
curiosity of seeing how many words

worth the trial; there is no cost, moth

We make the prediction that some
