Man on an isthmus stands on either side
A lake of wondrous aspect opens wide.
Forms from magic glass he casts on
each,
Lively as thought, and voluble as speech /;
And while the shadows on the right-hand
lake
Drop as from clouds, new tints of light
they take,
To fair enduring pageants smoothly rise.
And sail away to join the Eastern skies.
But DER the left-hand pool the phantom

Spread from the sad Magician's glass in

Like stagnant slime they lie or tos't and

Perish like words by blinded madness

WEALTH FROM MINERALS.
Order of the Producing States Sur
prise to Most Persons.

prise to Most Persons.
Out of the $1,623,S77, ,i27 worth of
minerals produced in the United States
for the latest period, that of 1905, just
compiled by the geological survey, only
$702, ,453, lot represented metals, while
1921 ,O24,019 were non-metallic mineral
products, such as coal, petroleum,
bricks, stone, etc, and besides these
there were a large number of inspect
fled minerals says the New York Tri-
bune. To those who have always asso-
ciated mineral wealth with gold, cop
per or iron, instead of the humber
things, this will explain why the gov
ernment experts class Ohio, Illinois,
New York and Alabama as mineral
wealth producers far above California,
Nevada and Alaska, West Virginia
higher than Montana, and why Penn
sylvania distances all the states and
territories or any three or four of them
combined.
In the annual tables of the survey
the mineral resources listed include
both certain raw materials and also GER
tain derivative materials in their first
marketable condition, which do not APP
pear in the table of mineral products
of the United States as whole, For
instance, both pig iron and iron ores
are included as important products en-
| tering into the commerce of certain
states, and In like manner are included
both pig lead and lead paints; both
clay products and raw clay; both coal
and Its immediate derivatives, coke,
gas coke, Illuminating gas, ammonium
sulphate and coal tar; bauxite and alu-
minum, and also alum and aluminium
sulphate. These derivatives and raw
materials are here given, regardless of
the consequent duplication of values, in
response to constant demand for this
information thus arranged by states.
Study of these tables will afford most
people more than one surprise. For
example, we think of Colorado and Cal.
ifornia as our most representative
mineral states. and yet the actual value
of Illinois mineral products was far
greater than that of either Colorado OF
California last year; more than double
