tell-so that the loss OF $4,000 will
not bring him to want or psaury. He
owns large blocks of stock In several

GOOD ONE ON MARK TWAIN.

DR.. Samuel l.. Clemens, otherwise
Mark Twain, has gone snipe huntin z
again. In the manner of snipe hunt
ers. he is now engaged in holding the
bag. Thirty-two thousand dollars is
the modest sum 1t has cost the hu.
morist for his lateset incursion into
the underbrush of business and II.
nance.
Mr.. Twain's unfortunate experience,
as has been told before. resulted from
his Connection with the Plasmon com.
pany Of America. It appears that Mark
had once been afflicted with dyspepsia,
an ailment that seriously threatened
his reputation as Americas principal
funny man. He tried the remedy man.

and, 1t is to be presumed, 1t made
new man of him. In any event, Mr.:
Twain was induced to invest s32. 900
In the stock Of the concern. Now ne

BABY'S BEAUTY,

Prominent ears can he made to lie
close to the head If the child wears
an ear cap regularly at night
A nose that is broad and sbapelcss
may be improved in a few months If
gently massaged every day with the
thumb and iorefinger. working always
downward toward the point.
If baby's eyebrows are skinny and
thin. rub In very gently. twice a week,
little vaseliDe. This encourages the
growth, and as good eyebrows are an
important improvement to even an
otherwise goodloolting face, they are
quite worth taking a little trouble
over.
Never neglect the weekly shampoo,
and see that the hair is cut and singed
at least once in six months. And,
perhaps most important of all, II the
hair is in the least weakly, do not on
any account allow it to be crimped or
curled, as this is bound to injure II.
Don't forget the hands and nails
need attention, too. Many people who
now have pudgy. thick hands might
have had cause to be proud of their
appearance if only they had received
attention during infancy.
Fingers that are thick at the joints
and do not taper nicely at the points
should be very gently massaged every
day from the klckles to the points
nails should also be carefully attend

PRO PATRIA MILL
MAKING FINE RUN.

Rico News.
The Pro Patria mill IS making an
unprecedented run Oh ores from the
United Rico Mines company's Pro
Patria group of mines. In fact the
capacity OF the mill is proving much
greater than was anticipated.
In the matter of saving values It ia
also making an excellent record. the
lead concentrates running as high az
73 per cent. while gold, silver, zinc
and copper are saved at the same
proportion of values.
The mill was started at noon on the
18th and after the adjusting of some
Of the machinery was put in motion at
its full capacity and is now running
night and day at a very satisfactory
speed.
There is an ample water supply both
for power and concentration, and with
the mill working continuously with
eight-hour shifts there will be no fear
of close-downs as a result of frozen
pipes and ice-covered tables. which
caused much expense and delay in
the past.
