OHIO RIVER NEARLY DRY;
e0YS WADiNG IT DAILY
| Situation at Cincinnati So Serious
That Municipal Water Supply
is imperiled.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 1S.-Cincin-
natl is facing water famine. The
Ohio river, because of the long
drought, is lower than it has been in
years, and on all sides apprehension
lis being expressed that possibly with
the waterworks drawing about 10000
GEO gallons daily from the river, the
supply may be exhausted Practically
no rain has fallen here for two months
and the stage is so low that small boys
are daily wading across it. But for
the fact that there is a basin holding
several millions of gallons of water
near the intake of the Cincinnati wa
terworks, the river could conveniently
be sucked into the mains.

The BigOx Mines

There is fine display of ore in the
sheriff office at Rock Island that was
secured by General Kittilsen and Wal
ter D. Olney recently while at the
mines of the Big Ok Mining company,
near Helena, Mont. An assay recently
made by Butte parties gives values
that will warrant any one who de-
sires to secure good investment to
investigate These gentlemen spent
over two weeks in looking over these
properties and are well fortified to
show up the Big Ok mines and their
worth.
You always take chances buying
One little fellow, few months ago,
invested $50 in mining stock that
proved later to be one of the richest
in the state, and recently cleared over
$4,000. While some people have in,
vested in a prospect or a streak on
a mountain and lost. others have in
vestetigated mines and made millions

of s75,000.O00 a year ARE taken out
| One-fourth of the copper supply of the

The Big Ok mines are developed to
| a degree that the ore in sight in sc
many tunnels and at different levels
justifies any one who has visited

To Clean Kitchen Utensils.

Cleaning pots and kettles is usually
considered the most disagreeable piece of
drudgery in the household, but like
everything else there is an easier way to
do it, if one knows how. AS soon as the
food is removed from such utensils, pour
in some water and small quantity of
solution made by dissolving a tablespoon
full of Gold Dust washing powder in a
gallon of water. Leave to soak while
washing the dishes, then pour off the
water and fill with clean suds made in
the same way. If particles of food still
adhere to the inside of the utensils, use
pot rings for removing them.
