asking me to be your wife until my
aunt suggested it to your"
NO"
She staggered as if he had struck
her; then her figure became rigid.
"And acting upon her advice, and,
no doubt, thinking that | would make
a good housekeeper, you asked me to
marry you. l hope" Felix Garde had
not known that his wifes soft, blue
eyes could flash like polished steel.
that l have filled the position salts
factorily."
With a quick stride he came toward
her and took hold of her arms firmly.
What you have heard is true" he
said quietly, but it is only part of the
truth. Hester, will you listen While
tell you the rest?"
Her breast was hoaving so that she
could not speak, and Felix Garde went
on.
ut is fact that l never thought of
marrying again until something your
aunt said put it into my head. 1t is
also true that, though your name was
not mentioned between us, my
thoughts flew at once to you with a
sweet thrill which l Gid not at the
time understand During our short
engagement I struggled against the
Joy which you were bringing into my
life, from a morbid feeling that ! was
being untrue to Madeline. If you had
known her, Hester, and knew how
childishly jealous she was of every
look or word of mine that was not
given to her, you would understand
this better. Since you have been my
wife," he stopped and drew q deep
breath, ct has been impossible to
struggle against the divine sweetness
of your companionship. Hester, / must
tell you'll must" he flung himself on
his knees beside her. as if throwing
off some restraint, and. his arms drew
her close, my wife, ! did not think
such happiness could exist outside OF
heaven. did not dream that life could
hold such great content as has been
mine since you married mel"
Her head had dropped forward until
it rested against him, and her tears,
falling softly, wetted the little lace
frills, which seemed to nestle against
her. There was a wonderful light in
her eyes when she raised them, and
her husband, with perfect understand
ing, bent forward and kissed her very
tenderly.
Presently she rose and leaned
against him with little loving move
ment.
after ALL" she said with a low,
happy laugh, I'VE might never have
been married had it not been for the
help of Aunt janet"
I'VE would" he cried radiantly,
though perhaps not quite so soon.
Anyway, | have had several added
months of happiness through the help

Under the operation of the new
Pure Food Laws, baking powders
now generally bear on the labels
a statement of the ingredients.
This is of utmost Importance be-
cause of the harmful ingredients
used in many cases.
Royal Baking Powder is known
to be the only baking powder made
of Royal Grape Cream of Tartar,
and this no doubt explains its
greatly increased sale here.
Careful housekeepers are TAX
ing advantage of the protection
which the laws afford, and are ex-
aiming all the reading matter
on the back of the label before
adopting any brand for use in the
home.
When in place of the words

gradients, they heed the warning
and avoid baking powders con-
tanning these substitutes.

KANSAS LEAD AND ZINC.

peared in IRON Ore" a paper
published at Ishpeming, Mich
igan, the following, which was
sent the paper by Miss J. E. Har-
rison of this city. Miss Harrison
is sending out a great deal of
matter advertising the Baxter
Springs camp. And when the
matter gets into such papers as
Iron Ore" it does great deal of
good:
Baxter Springs, Kas., June p.
The increased activity in the
| mines at Baxter Springs is very
gratifying because it is an evil
dence that the underground de-
velopment is sufficient to keep
men enough in the ground to sup
ply dirt to keep the mills running
continuously. The production for
the last three months is very sat
isfactorv-2,76S,970 pounds OF
zinc and 463, $50 pounds of lead
when it is remembered that of
the twenty-five mills in this
camp to date, with an average
capacity of $50 tons each, only
the Mission and the M. K. & t.,
the latter of which has paid 20
per cent dividend for the last
eighteen months, have under
ground development sufficient to
supply their mills with dirt for
continuous running; while the
Kramer-Morse, BIS, Newlands,
Spring River and McAllister are
able to make one shift a day at
present with very bright pros
pect of making continuous run
before the summer closes. Sew
eral of the old and best producing
mines in this camp are resting
for time for reasons best known
to the management, while sever
al new mills with new managers,
will soon be added to the list to
those now running one shift.
The condition here is not UNI
like that of other camps, which is
due to fact not fully understood
by those not in the mining bust
ness that without exceptions the
top or surface development and
| mill building has been in advance
of the ground development which
has caused many to believe that
our ore body was insufficient to
supply these mills, whereas, the
ore body here is of unusual ex-
tent and thickness and the fault
lies with the operators who have
put money into surface develop
ment instead of underground
work to supply a mill with dirt
when it is ready to run. 1t takes
time to open a mine, no matter
which way the work is done, for
ore must be gotten out before a
mill can concentrate it, so if a
mill is built first, that money
must lie idle until the ground can
be made to produce the required
dirt. The ore is here, and it will
yield all that the most sanguine
can hope for if the miner is as
persistent as a postage stamp,
stick to one thing till he gets
there.
The price of lead still hovers
around $3.50 which makes the
unearthed resources of the new
state of Oklahoma so attractive
all over the United States. The
daily discovery of lead and zinc
in the Quapaw reservation is
demonstrating the vastness of
the ore body that underlies this
section. A new strike of unusual
richness was made on some of
the westernmost holdings of the
Baxter Royalty company's land,
lying four and one half miles
north of Miami, /. T., at a depth
of 90 feet, the ore having been
first shown up by the drill to be
from II to q feet in thickness.
While this particular strike was

ent field of operation, II is of very
great significance as il carries the
field of the Quapaw mining camp
four and one-half miles west of
any present known development;
and the Great Northern Mining
Company in drilling three miles
to the south of any former drill
ing along Spring river last week,
encountered good ore at 90 feet
in its first drill hole, thus fur
nishing further proof of a state
ment often made, that the lead
and zinc in this camp is as a vast
blanket, verying in thickness
from six to forty feet.
The E. F. Sweeney Mining and
Engineering company purchased
for $4,000 the McAllister mine,
which means much to this camp,
as these gentlemen are to the
manor born mine operators. This
property has a 1O6-ton mill which
the new management will over
haul. The ore in this mine is
both rich and in great abundance
and as the Sweeneys have the
lease from the Indian boy who
owns it by allotment, they will
easily make big profit. The ore
in this mine is of the same grade
as that of the Mission, which is
the best yet found in this camp.
Of the properties without mills
that of the Sunburst, which mills
| its ore in the Omaha, has made
one of the richest strikes of the
past week, everything points to
this mine making one of the ex-
ceptionally large properties of
the camp. A lead strike wars
made in the Three Queens, it be-
| ing the only exclusive lead dig
gings here, and it is very rich as
you will understand, when you
know that three men can hoist,
and hand jig one ton per day of
one shift. A fine bed of ore was
uncovered in the Little Four mine
which is on the Baxter Royalty
land.
Some Philadelphia parties have
recently taken an option on a 40
acre tract lying west of and adj
joining the great Mission mine,
| and will at once drill to test and
determine the extent of the ore
body before sinking a shaft. Cap
ital is attracted to this field from
all over the east, south and north
and the enthusiasm over the daily
finds of lead an jack (zinc) gives
the camp the appearance OF a
good sized boom, yet under all
the excitement a wholesome pro-
gress in the mining business is
being made which every one must
admit, who knows that the last
year the Observation-Disclosures
Territory mines produced S16,-
900, 900 worth of lead and zinc
(three-fourths of all the zinc pro-
duced in the world is produced
here), and of this amount S176, :
600 was produced from this three
year-old camp in the new state of
Oklahoma, just south of Baxter
Springs.
There is no mining camp in the
country that is so easily mined
and so sure of profitable returns
as that of this field. With lead
at S82. so and zinc at $4S per ton,
wealth surely awaits the persist
ant miner. ]. E. HARRISON,
