MEAT OR CEREALS.
A Question Of Interest to All Care
ful Persons.

Arguments on food are interesting.
Many persons adopt vegetarian diet
on the ground that they do not like to
feel that life has been taken to feed
them, nor do they fancy the thought
Of eating dead meat.
On the other hand, too great con-
sumption OF partly cooked. starchy
oats and wheat or white bread, pastry,
etc, produces serious bowel troubles,
because the bowel digestive organs
| (where starch is digested). are over
taxed and the food ferments, produc-
ing sas. and microbes generate in the
peritonitis and appendicitis.
Starchy food is absolutely essential
to the human body. Its best form is
shown in the food "Grape-Nuts," where
the starch is changed into a form Of
sugar during the process of its manu-
facture. In this way, the required
food IS presented to the system in .
pre-digested form and is Immediately
made into blood and tissue, without
taxing the digestive organs.
| A remarkable result in nourishment
IL obtained; the person using Grape
Nuts gains quickly in physical and
mental strength. Why in mental?
Because the food contains delicate
particles Of Phosphate Of Potash OBJ
tanned from the grains, and this unites
with the albumen OF all food and the
combination is what nature uses to re-
build worn out cells in the brain.
This Is a scientifi, fact that can be
easily proven by ten days use Of
Grape Nuts. There's a Reason" "

Copper in the HartvilIe Upiift.

North and east of North Platte
river in eastcentral Wyoming is
broad, low. domal mountain mass with
maximum height above sea level
which is known as the Hartville up
lift. and which is similar in many re-
spects to the Black Hills of South
Dakota. Throughout this entire area
copper is SO widely distributed that,
although no large deposit has yet
oeen discovered, valuable beds OF ore
may at any time be found
During the field season of 1906, sgd
ney H. Ball, Of the United States Geo
illogical Survey, while investigating
he iron ores of this region. visited the
copper mines and prospects. An ac-
count Of this work is published by the
Survey in its annual volume on eco
nomic geology bulletin No. 315) cop.
les of which may be obtained on an
plication. Mr.. Ball gives an account
of the history and production of the
region and describes the ore deposits,
which occur in the form of fissure
veins, lenticular or globular masses OF
ore that outcrop at the surface and
pinch out at slight depths, and blanket
or bedded deposits. The fissure veins
have not yet been sufficiently devel.
oped to establish their character be
yond doubt.

Supervisor NJ. w. Coffey testified
that he accepted bribe OF $1,000
from Halsey under the conditions
stated, but he denied that the vote was
thereby Influenced. Supervisor F. F.
Nichols testified to accepting a bribe
from Halsey. Former Supervisor An

Courtesy at Home.

We are all creatures Of habit,
men and women alike. and the habits
and surroundings OF daily life have a
powerful influence on the character OF
both. The root OF all bad manner Is
selfishness when self ever Is first, fore
most consideration for others always
lags much in the rear. and drops so
.ar behind in time that II disappears
altogether. "One cannot keep up the
ceremony and etiquette of society
when at home" True. for between
friends these can be laid aside. They
merely are the rivets that keep So
slety together. but not courtesy and
consideration. The latter ought to
be SO much the habit with each OF IS
that II Will become our second nature.
and therefore can be no moro laid
lside than can an arm or leg.

Eikton 10 4 Winner.

A hne example Of conservative mine
management is presented by the Elk
ton Consolidated Mining and Milling
Company in the Cripple Creek district.
The annual report Of the company de-
scribes the fiscal year ending May IL,
1907, as "one OF the most prosperous
in the history OF the COMPANY"
This is at,ested by the fact that Elk
ton shares sold yesterday at SOS cents.
In 1902, when the market for such
shares was more active than at pres
ent, they sold for SO cents to IS cents.
The Elkton company is now awaiting
the completion Of the deep drainage
tunnel at present under way and mill
for dump material and wgrade ores
in the levels Of the property.
To the drainage company the Elkton
management has subscribed 100000.
and will add more If necessary. II is
calculated that the completion Of the
tunnel to the Beacon Hill mines will
add 740 feet to the available ore terri
tory in Elkton ground. This practically
doubles the present value of the group
as based upon the ore in sight.
With regard to the proposed mill the
Elkton management IS noting the prog
ress made at the indicator, Mary Nc
Kinney. Stratton's independence and
other large mines. The experiments
made by Manager II. b. Lien at the
lronclad mill are also useful. In the
latter case 100 tons OF wgrade ma
trial, averaging $2.S5 a ton, is being
handled daily by the cyanide process.
The extraction Of gold runs eighty per
cent. Of the assay value, making the
cash returns from the mill $4,000 a
month.
When the Elkton management is
ready to act it will have the results OF
a half dozen different notifications OF
the cyanide process to choose from.

carnotte in Rio BIanco County, Colo.

The name of carnotite was applied
in 1899 by Cumenge and Fr1edel to
oanary-yellow ocherous pigment that
was found impregnating siliceous
sandstone in Montana county, Colo
ado This mineral is source of the
rare elements uranium and vanadiun,,
and tests have also shown that il con.
lains the still rarer element radiun.
Uranium and vanadium have attractei
much attention in recent years, ura.
riuH being used as pigment in paint
ing on porcelain. in photography, AMI
as a color in glass manufacture, AMI
Nanadium being added to steel to in
crease its tensile strength, elasticity
end uuctility. Uranium also has the
property of increasing the hardness
and elasticity of steel and Of aluminium
but has not yet been much used for
this purpose.
Carnotite has been discovered at q
number of places in Colorado and ads
Jacont parts Of Utah. Particularly In.
teresting deposits are found near the
valley Of Coal creek, about fourteen
miles northeast of Meeker, in Ria
blancc county, in the northwestern
rart of Colorado. This locality was
visited in the fall of 1906 by Hoyt s.
Gale, of the United States Geological
Survey, who has written brief ac
count of the deposits for the surveys

NEWS FROM the MINES AND MILLS
Newton Mill in Operation.

Idaho Springs, Colo.-Barney ].
O'Connell OF GEORGETOWN has treated
100 tons OF zinc ore at the Newton mill
here successfully. Only recently Man
ager Renshaw began experiments with
the zinc ores from the upper end OF
the county and the results OF his sys-
tenn of separation OF lead from zinc
have been SO marked that the section
OF the mill given over to these ores
has been congested with the offerings
of the refractory mineral.
O'Connell has made settlement for
his ore and says that the plan OF sep
arating the zinc from the lead makes
his product worth hundreds OF dollars
more than when it was shipped to the
smelters direct and followed by the
zinc penalty.
The Newton mill is a modern one
and built for handling iron ores by con-
centration. The ores are fed to crush
ers. then sized with the coarse. going
to four, six. eight and ten-mesh jigs.
the overflow being returned to stamps
for recrushing to thirty-mesh, the
product then going to hydraulic sizers
and tables ranging in size from thirty
to sixty-mesh. Wiley tables are used
exclusively. The lead and iron being
heavier, they work farther up the ia
BILE and are caught by a special bucket
originated by Renshaw. while the zinc
product is carried to the storage bipa
| as concentrates.
Most Of the lead and iron are caugEt
on the first jigs, its precipitation being
quicker than with the zinc, leaving
the tables only the zinc and overflow
to handle. Until these were made and
proved successful it was not believed
possible to cut out the lead. The ship
| ments made show the zinc product to
run forty nine per cent. zinc and five
per cent. lead. while the lead, saved
| mostly from the first jigs and the ia
BILE buckets" shows seventy-three per
cent. lead and three per cent zinc AS
the zinc penalty at the smelters COM
mences with five and eight per cent.
zinc. O'Connell has made a profitable
product. the zinc being sold to the zinc
smelters and the lead going to the lead

LIFE INSURANCE ACTIVITY,
The New York Lifs's 0usiness Nearly
Up to the Legal Limit.

The New York Life Insurance Com.
pany announces that its new paid
business during the half year Just end
ed was over seventy million dollars.
As the new law allows no life com
pany to write over one hundred and
Fifty millions per year, 1t would ap-
pear that this company is working
nearly up to the limit. The New
York Life gained such headway be
lore the law was passed and suffered
70 little. comparatively. from the Arm
strong investigation, that the question
with its management has been how TO
keep business down to the limit, rath-
er than how to reach 1t. No other
company is writing nearly as much
As the law allows. The New York
Life has evidently become . pre-
serred company.
The company's payments 10 policy
holders during the six months end
ing June 80 were $2l,66O7S1. 1t is
Interesting TO note that this amount
was almost equally divided between
payments under policies maturing by
death and payments made to living
policy holders. Thus, while death
claims were $11.lsO.626. the amount
paid for matured endowments, annu-
ties, trust fund installments, for pur-
chased policies and for dividends was
30. 0.4S0.135. Modern life insurance. as
practiced by the best companies, en-
braces a wide field, and covers many
contingencies. 1t Is money saved for
the aged, as well as money provided
tor the families OF those who die pre-.
naturely.
