Review ef the Copper Handbook.


 been issued by the author, Horace J. Stevens, of Houghton, Michigan. The book has 1928 pages, octave, brevier type, being materially arger than before. The author apologies for his inability to revise the book throughout, explaining that fire, sickness and loss of five months time prevented, but the new volume contains about 1S0. 900 words of new matter, equal in length to three ordinary works of fiction, in addition to the matter remaining unchanged from the preceding issue.
 The new edition of the Copper Handbook contains p chapters, an increase of nine, treating of copper under the headings of History, Geology, Chemistry, Mineralogy, Mining, Milling, Concentrating, Hydrometallurgy, Pyrometallurgy, Electrometallurgy, Alloys, Brands, Grades, Uses, Substitutes, Termin- ology, Geography, Copper Deposits, Copper Mines and Statistics. The treatment given the subject in 1928 pages is encyclopedia in scope but the logical and orderly arrange ment of the great mass of facts presented, coupled with table of contents, full index and alphabet ical arrangement of districts, conn tries, mines, minerals and glossary, render 1t possible to ascertain any given fact with almost as much ease as a word Is found in a dictlon- ary. This is a point of much value to readers that has been overlooked in many otherwise excellent works of reference.
 The Copper Handbook Is not in- tended to replace other works for the use of technical meA, but it does supplement all other books on copper. while for the average reader it's hundreds of pages de- voted to the scientific and technical features of the subject will be found to cover every point of interest. The language Is plain throughout, and the layman, whether miner or investor, will find the clear and easily understandable exposition of scientific facts great aid, as the highly technical language used in many of the best scientific works is a serious stumbling, block in the path of the man not technically trained, who Is forced to read such books with dictionary at his elbow.
 In whatever light the Copper Handbook is viewed whether in describing the thousands of differ ent copper mines, in all parts of the world, in the plain descriptions of intricate processes of mining, milling. smelling and refining, or ir the forty pages of statistics GOV ering the copper industry of the globe in it's various commercial and Financial aspects, the book must stand as monument of patience and labor, it being the unaided work of a single man.
 The book will be found of deep interest and practical value to every man interested in the subject of copper, from whatever stand point, whether he be engaged in the production or use of the metal or Is an investor in copper shares. The descriptions of the mines are written without fear or favor, and covaral bupd ra,l pni nj no oo m no n iao

in which scores ef companies gre termed swindles and fraud it seems rather surprising that in the seven years of its publication not one libel suit has been brought into court though many have been threatened In fact the author of the Copper Handbook has turned the tables on some of his critics by placing a few of them in prison, for their frauds upon the investing public.
 The price of the Copper Hand- book is five dollars, and the sell ing plan used is absolutely unique in the book trade. For five years past Mir. Stevens has sent his book, all carriage charges prepaid, with out penny payment in advance, to any person in any part of the world, on one weeks approval, sub- ject to return if unsatisfactory. It speaks we'll for the book that only about one copy in thirty has been returned, and we'll for the honesty of average human nature that only about one man in thirty keeping the book has failed to pay for it. On these unusual terms anyone interested in copper can we'll afford to send to NIT. Stevens for a copy of the new edition of the Copper Handbook.

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-06-08
MORE FOR PENDLEToN.

The new law permitting state instl-
tutions to be located away from the
state capital will give Pendleton a
branch of the state insane asylum in
time.
This climate is especially adapted
to the needs of the insane, especially
those suffering with certain classes of
ailments and 1t would be not only
economical for the state to locate a
branch here to accommodate the vast
territory east of the Cascades, but it
would be an act of mercy and good
horse sense to place a branch here in
a climate which would cure, instead Of
aggravate mental weaknesses of spe-
cific classes.
This city being the logical location
for the eastern Oregon asylum should
not be required to put up a strong
fight for such an institution. The leg
islature should see the need for such
and should also recognize the scientific
reasons for locating a branch in
mild and invigorating climate which
in curing many of the unfortunates.
Pendleton should begin early to
present her claims for this state in
stitution. The present asylum is
crowded to the limit Of its capacity,
the climate at Salem is death to many
who would perhaps recover in a diff
ferent climatic condition, and there
are dozens of reasons why a big
branch of the state insane asylum
should be located here within the
next two years.
1t would save thousands of dollars
per year in travelling expenses and
would keep eastern Oregon insane in
this part of the state thus making it
more convenient and less expensive
for relatives to visit them and would
be helpful from a scientific stand
point.
Physicians of the asylum could then
assign inmates to the climatic condi-
tion suited to them and thus aid in
curing many who would otherwise
pass a few miserable years in the
asylum and die after all for want of
simplest remedy-climate.
