SHARE THE PROFITS.
A smeiter Company Gives Its EN-
psoyes Part Of the Earnings.

One OF the most successful plans for
sharing profits with employees is being
conducted by the American Smelling l.
Refining Company. which is managed
By the Guggenheims. This company
has a large number of employees in
Colorado. and to each OF them is given
each year a pro rata division Of such
net profits of the company as remain
after dividends are paid on its pre-
ferred and common stock This year
the amount distributed was 100000 at
all its plants.
This profit sharing plan originated
with the executive committee of the
company. for the purpose of attach
ing its employees more closely to their
work. In some large companies a sys-
TEN Of pensions are resorted to. but
the plan Of sharing profits appears to
make each employe feel additional re-
sponsibility, and regard the interests
OF the company as his own. The an
nual cost of this plan to the company
means nearly one-half million dollars,
and is much more expensive than pen
si0ns, but at the same time Is much
more satisfactory.
On the pay roll OF the Guggenheim
interests in Colorado are some of the
most contented and loyal working men
that can be found anywhere in the
country. The result Of the plan OF
profit sharing is at once the delight
and establishment of students of indus
trial conditions, who have pondered
deeply on the problem of dividing
earnings with labor. This is one OF
the numerous instances where bust
ness men took up and settled an in
dustrial. problem to the satisfaction O.
labor. while mere theorists were
baffed by the perplexing situation.
The Guggenheims, while up to date
business men in every respect, still
adhered to the good old-fashioned idea
that an employer Is in a measure re-
sponsible for those who work for him.
To this plan of dealing with laboring
men they attribute no small part OF
their success.

Iron and steel Exports.

manufacturers show an increase of
about twenty-five per cent. in the nine
months ended with September and Inn

nm Increase Of practically twenty-eight
per cent. in the same period as COM
pared with the same months Of the

Higher Education.

In his Chancellor's Address at the
fourth centenary of Aberdeen Univer-
sity. Lord strathcona compared higher
education In Great Britain with that
in Germany and the United States.
While praising Aberdeen. he held that
the Old World has much to learn from
the New. He was convinced that ON
this side Of the Atlantic our institu-
lions Of learning adapt themselves
moro easily and readily to the needs
~ their constituencies. They found
ont long ago that law and medicine and
theology are not the only legitimate
points Of academic study: and in their
fAculties Of applied science they are
training their young men to do work
that II most loudly called for. They
have never accepted the view that
universities must necessarily be insti-
tztions cloistered and apart from the
main current OF public life and serv-
Ice" In this country there u, indeed.
little danger that the college-bred man
may sacrifice practical utility to re-
mcte ideals. But. as Mr.. A. G. Benson
lately remarked In his paper on THE
Useleisness Of knowledge" the pur-
suit OF knowledge as an end is not
Inconsistent with practical activity.
This Il easily to be seen in Germany.

Indians Moving Back.

Rock Springs, Wyo.-The large band
of Ute Indians, rounded up by the gov
eminent officials east of Douglas two
weeks ago, started on the return trip
to the White Rock agency in Utah, and
snowbound here, will start out again
in few days for the reservation. The
Indians preferred to make the jour-
ney overland from Rock Springs In
stead of going by train. They have
been cared for while here by public
spirited citizens and the government.
They do not like the idea Of returning
to the reservation. fearing the govern
ment will let them starve. Should I'm.
Gle Sam provide food and clothing for
them. however, they will be content
at White Rock.

THEY CURE RHEUMATISM
\ PsrtieusarIy Painful Form of This

OF the many forms which Rheumatism
takes. that which is popularity known a.
sciatic rheumatism probably tortures its
victim more than any other. That DIR.
Williams Pink Pills have cured this
stubborn as well as painful trouble is q
fact proven by the following statement,
and no sufferer who reads this can af-
ford to let prejudice stand in the way Of
trying these blood-innking pills.
Rheumatism is now generally re-
cognized as n disease of the blood. DR..

make-pure blood. When the blood is
pure there can be no rheumatism. Mrs.
Thomas Bresnehan, of s. Mill street,
Watertown. N. Y. says:
my trouble began with a severe cold
which took about u week before
Christmas in 1904. I began to have
rheumatic pains in my back and limbs
and after a time I couldn't straighten
up. suffered the most awful pain for
months and much Of the time was un-
able to leave the house and had to take
hold Of a chair in order to walk and
sometimes 1 could not stand up at all.
"The disease was pronounced sciatic
rheumatism and, although had a good
physician and took his medicine faith
fully, ! did not get any better. After
some six weeks Of this terrible pain and
suffering I tried DIR. Williams Pink
Pills and that is the medicine that cured
me. After few boxes the pain was
less intense and could see decided i'm.
prove:nent. / continued to take the pills
until l was entirely cured and l have
never had any return of the trouble"

SILVER STILL CLIMBING.
Mr.. Simon Gugsenheim Says White
Metal 10 Again to Reach
kioh Price


What seems like prophecy founded
on knowledge Of the facts is the
statement made by Simon Guggenheim
Of Denver, several months ago, with
regard to the price Of silver. The
white metal is still climbing upward,
and is now above 70 cents an ounce
Mr.. Guggenheim, who is intensely
loyal to Colorado and all her interests.
made the announcement some time
ago that silver would soon advance
and the mining of that metal be once
more profitable in the once great sill
yer camps.
said Mr.. Guggenheim, who has been
active In her development for eighteen
years. And there is every indication
that silver mining is again to be profit
able In the famous camps we were SO
proud of in the old days. In very
few months silver will reach 10 cents,
with every prospect Of going higher"
This prediction has come true to the
delight OF every loyal Coloradan. Mr..
Guggenheim's companies have been
active since silver was demonetized to
restore the metal to at least something
near Its former value. It begins to
look as II what was attempted for
Colorado by political platforms when
silver was an Issue" will be done by
persistent work along business lines
by men who are able to exert powerful
influence in behalf of whatever plans
for helping Colorado they have in
hand.

The Velocity Of L,oht.

Light moves with the amazing vel
ocity Of $4,000 miles a second, q
speed q million times as great as that
Of rifle bullet. It would make the
circuit of the earth's circumference, at
the equator, seven times in one beat
OF the pendulum. For long time the
light was thought to be instantaneous,
but It il now known to have a meas
urable velocity. The discovery was
first made by means OF the eclipses of
Jnpiter's satellites. Jupiter, like the
earth. casts shadow. and when his
moons pass through 1t, they are
eclipsed. Just as our moon is eclipsed
when passing through the earth's
shadow. Jupiter's shadow far sur
passes in magnitude that of the earth.
His moon revolves around him more
rapidly than our moon revolves around
the earth. and their orbits are nearly
in the plane of the planets orb. Con-
sequent1y. says the Hesperian. they
all. with the exception OF the fourth
and most distant satellite, pass
through the planets shadow and are
eclipsed at every revolution.
