The Yapa- pal club house was placed at their dis posal for the meetings. and an evening reception held there at which three hundred of the prominent citizens O.; the northern part of the territory were present. This year it is the privilege of Douglas to have these ladies here for period of three or four days. Douglas has never been found wanting where hospitality was in order. and it is to be hoped that this event will prove no exception to the rule It is to be regretted that the new hotel will not be completed that the guests might carry away with then the best i'm pressions possible. but since this is the case the citizens will have to make up in cordiality what the town lacks ir finish"

town, and six weeks later came back as
superintendent of the mine, which was
soon turning out bullion to the amount
OF nearly $l,000,O00 year"
Up to this time, DAILY had worked
continually for others. Now, with spare
money in his hands, he bought the Ana
conda silver mine for $4,000 He
worked it for silver to the depth of one
hundred and twenty feet, and then to
his great surprise, struck what speedily
turned out to be the greatest copper de-
post uncovered up to that time and for
years after Not until the United Verde
mine was worked for copper was there
richer mine of its kind.
Romance clings thick about the cop
per mines of the Michigan peninsula
Perhaps the most romantic chapter cen
terS around the name of Alexander
Agassis son of the famous scientist and
himself a scientist almost as well known
as was his father
When Alexander Agassiz was thirty
-he is now 71-the Hecla mine was
owned by some Boston capitalists who
had so lost faith in the property that
they had decided to abandon it after
once more wasting few thousand dol
lars in having it gone over by an ex.
pert, for mere FORMS sake. They knew
young Agassiz favorably, and invited
him to inspect the property for them.
incidentally, and with some merrimeht,
they told him to develop it, if he found
it worth while.
To make a long story short, Agassiz
and his brother-in-law, who accompan-
led him on the trip of exploration, were
not long in perceiving the possibilities
OF the property, quietly bought up all the
stock they could at the then prevailing
ridiculouslyN low figure, and thus, to-
gether with their development work, laid
the foundation of their fortunes. Later
on, Agassiz developed the Calumet mine,
at the request of its owners; and the
two properties were consolidated, be-
coming world famous as the Calumet
and Hecla mines.
The Mesaba, the most wonderful of
all the iron ore ranges, owes its dis
covery to the fools gold" excitement
that swept over northern Minnesota in
the days following the Civil War
One of the men taking part in the
chimerical hunt was Lewis H. Merritt,
who had emigratcd from western New
York before the war When the excite
nent began he struck off into the will
derness by himself, into part neglected
by the other victims of the craze When
he returned home, all h brought with
him was a small packare of red iron
ore His sons. four in number, were in
their teens. He showed them the pre-,
told them of its value, and described 10
them the range which he had discovered
and was sure was a great rnineral store

Unusual Offer of a World Famous
Manufacturer
How Mother Earth is Made To Do
Your Weekly Wash.

You can now have your washing done
by Gravity power, for a washing ma
chine has been invented which actually
makes the rotation of the earth on its
axis do all the hard work of the weekly
wash
The machine is very simple in con-
struction, very easy in operation and
very wonderful in results.
After the dirty clothes are put in the
tub of the machine and covered with hot
suds, all that is needed to start the
work of washing is slight push of the
hand. The strength of a small child
would be far more than enough to set
the machinery in motion. And, once
started, the washer is easily kept going
by slight pushes and pulls with your
hand The machine oscillates slightly
because the earth power-Gravity-does
all the hard work. You can sit down
TO do your part, if you prefer
This wonderful machine is rightly
called "a Gravity Washer" because Gra-
witty does practically all your washing.
This Gravity Washer is made only by
the world famous 1900 Washer Co, of
Binghamptoh, N. Y, who have patented
the machine. And to show you the
wonderful work this machine will do,
the makers offer to send a Gravity
Washer to any responsible party, for a

once, all freight prepaid $50 you are
put to no expense for the trial) and

Home Economies
DreSSmaking and Home Se9Uing.
By MINNA S. CRAWFORD.

In this lesson we shall deal mainly
with the fitted Innings for. draped bodices
and shirtwaists, as these are usually
draped directly on the lining, and the
seams of the outer fabric, with the ex-
ceptlon of the dart seams, are usually
included in the lining seams
The first step is choosing a pattern.
If you want the waist to be of your own
designing and different from those for
which patterns are procurable: your
best plan is to buy plain lining pattern
and utilize it as the foundation upon
whcih to build your ideas.
1t sometimes happens that a woman's
figure vanes somewhat from the fixed
measurements upon which paper pat
terms are cut She may be shorter or
longer in the waist, or shorter from the
armhole to shoulder in the back. She
can ascertain this by comparing the
length of the underarm seam and the
back seam of waist that fits her, with
the underarm and the centre hack seam
of the pattern.
Where such discrepancy of length
exists, much trouble may be saved by
making the needed alteration in the
pattern before cutting the lining. To
do this Tor figure that is shorter from
armhole to waist line fold a narrow
tuck straight across the side body, back
and underarm piece of pattern at about
three inches above the waist line.
Measure carefully to see that you have
not taken up too large tuck.
If the figure is longer wasted than the
pattern, cut straight through the pat
tern at three inches above the waist line
and separate evenly to the required
length.
Many women who have flat, or So
called hollow backs, need to have their
waists shortened both above and below
the arms eye. To shorten above the
arms eye take very small tuck, say
an eighth of an inch deep. right across
the back below the shoulder line and
directly at the center of the armhole
curve This should save making changes
in the shoulder seams as such changes
frequently mar the contour of the
neck line
CUTTING THE LINING
In cutting the material for the lin
ing, care must be taken, first of all, to

have the material doubled and spread
smoothly upon table or cutting board,
ready to place the pattern upon it. The
pattern should be pinned firmly to the
material and the whole fastened to the
table by them tacks or with the glass
headed push pins; to prevent slipping
or other mishap. Then go over the
outlines of both edges and seams with
the tracing wheel, not forgetting to
make all the notches with accuracy and
care.
The purpose of having the material
double under the pattern is that both
sides of the waist lining be cut at once
and all the notches and other necessary
markings be put into the material be-
fore removing the paper pattern from it..
