evening. so many fail to realize the in
jury done to the eyes by twilight read
ing" SO to speak. Often there is a great
temptation to finish a sewing. or, perhaps,
a book. and the fact, say, that dinner
has not been served leads many to think
that the day is not spent. The truth of
the matter is. that the between lights,
as we might call the hour after the sun
sets, is the one that plays more havoc
with the eyesight, for there is an increas-
ing strain to see. II people would make
it rule to give the eyes a complete rest
when twilight comes on, they would find
that they would have fewer headaches for
one thing. and save the eyes many an un-
comfortable moment 1t seems a small
matter, but it is well worth considering.

Atlanta, October 20,-(Special)-A
from the fact that it was good roads
day at the state fair today the occasion
had an added interest in the appearance
on the same platform for the first time
of Gov. Hoke Smith and Gov. -elect Joseph
NJ. Brown. They were almost as widely
separated on the programme as they ara
in politics. but that did not interfere with
their expressing very similar thoughts
along the line of the subject in hand.
The recent action of the legislature in
arranging to put the convicts on the pub
lie roads gave special interest to the pro-
gramme of good roads day and the dem
onstration work that accompanied it. Be
sides a liberal representation of the
membership of the Good Roads club of

Hay Fever

Why is it that there is an irresistible de-

sounds rather unsympathetic, but it is
nevertheless true. Hay fever is one of
the ludicrous maladles which excite the
risibles, for nothing is so funny as to
see and hear another sneezing ones head
off over nothing. It is terrible suffering,
so those who are victims declare, but to
the unoffending party it is very ridicu-
lous. An old sufferer tells of trying all
sorts and kinds of cures for hay fever,
and finally being cured by smelling the
fumes of paregoric. Tt is said to be an al
most infallible cure

An administration with apprecfa-
ton of the extent and Importance OF
the mining industry, such as Presi-
dent-elect Taft gave demonstration
of yesterday, can be of great aid to
the more than a million workers it
is employing in this country and the
still larger number of investors who
have interest in it. Mr. Taft leaves
small room for doubt but that his
hand will be extended in aid and
that calls made upon him will not be
made in vain. With all of which he
is big and broad enough TO look out
for everybody else The election of
Taft looks steadily more and more
like an exceedingly fortunate piece
of business for the people of the
country.

The next year will see the Ely dis
triot furnish some new sensations for
the copper mining world. We will
not only get our costs of production
down to a point that will startle
some of the high cost producers but
we will also open up some splendid
new ground. The Coppermines Co.
is coming to the center of the stage
and promises to prove an eye opener
for those who keep track of big new
properties and take advantage of the
opportunities they offer for adyan-
tageous investment. And there are
others in the district that will also
have a hand in attracting increased
attention this way before the end of
1919.
