to be expended for the development %

SILVER STILL CLIMBING.
Mr.. Simon Gugeenheim Says White
Metal is Again to Reach
Hidh Price

What seems like prophecy founded
on knowledge of the facts is tho
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.. GuggenheiU, 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.
Colorado is a magnificent state.
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.S
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. 1t begins t6
look as If what was attempted for
Colorado by political platforms when
silver was an Issue" will be done by
persistent work along business ling
by men who are able to exert powerful
influence in behalf of whatever plans
for helping. Colorado they have In
hand.

THEY CURE RHEUMATISM
A Particularly Painful Form OF This
Disease Yields to DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.

OF the many forms which rheumatism
takes, that which is popularity known a.
sciatic rheumatism probably tortures it,
victim more than any other. That DR..
Williams, Pink Pills have cured this
stubborn as well as painful trouble is a
fact proven by the following statement,
ford to let prejudice stand i'll the way Of
trying these blood-making pills.
Rheumatism is now generally re-
cognized as disease of the blood. DR..
Williams Pink Pills Enthusiastically
make-pure blood. When the blood is
pure there can be no rheumatism. Mrs
Thomas Bresnehan, of "a Mill street,
Watertown. N. Y, says:
my trouble began with a severe cold
which 1 took about a week before
Christmas in 1904. 1 began to have
rheumatic pains i'll my back and limbs
and after n time l couldn't straighten
up. l suffered the most awful pain for
months and much of the time was un-
able to leave the house and L had to take
hold of chair i'll order to walk and
sometimes l could not stand up at all.
The disease was pronounced sciatic
rheumatism and, although 1 had good
physician and took his medicine faith
fully, did not get any better. After
some six weeks of this terrible pain aud
suffering 1 tried DIR. Williams Pink
Pills and that is the medicine that cured
me. After few boxes the lain was
less intense and 1 could see decided i'm
provement. L continued to take the pills
until | was entirely cured and have
never had any return of the trouble -

SHARE THE PROFITS.
A smeIter Company Gives Its En-
ployes Part of the Earnings.

One of the most successful plans for
sharing profits with employees is being
conducted by the American Smelling d
Refining Company, which is manage0
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 az
all its plants.
This profit sharing plan originated
with the executive committee OF the
company, for the purpose OF attacni /
ing its employees more closely TO then
work. In some large companies sys.
ten of pensions are resorted to, bue
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
sions, 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 delighls
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 busi-
ness men took up and settled an in
dustrial problem to the satisfaction Of =,
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 laborins
men they attribute no small part of
their success.
