The Glass Eye Industry.

''The manufacture Of glass eyes
has been reduced to a science" said
a gentleman who is compelled to wear
one of them. mo two natural orbs
are exactly alike, each one differing
In size and color. It takes the mic
est kind of calculation to get an ar
tsfcial eye that is approximately the
same in size and color as the natural
one. If the artificial eye fits the SOC
ket on all sides the muscles which
would move the natural eye grip the
glass one when they are called into
play, and in this way the artificial
orb IS moved slightly, thus lessening
the disagreeable impression which a
glass eye gives. Matching the color
Of the natural eye, however, is the
hardest part of the manufacturing pro-
cess, and requires the most expert
workmanship. When the glass eye is
perfected an exact duplicate is made
and kept on file just as a business
man keeps card index list, so that
duplicate orders may be filed by
mail The life Of glass eye varies
from three to six months. The chem
ical properties Of the tear act upon
the glass, dulling its luster and CIV
ing It a dead appearance. "--Phila'

LYDIA z. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
nOld Lydia e. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
o. the world q remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and efica-
CiOus than any combination ofdrugs.
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. St.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
Complete restoration to health
neans so much to me that for the sake
ct other suffering women am willing
to make my troubles public
For twelve years had been suffer
Ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue

What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-

twill do for other suffering women.

coReETT co. NOT GUILTY

TUCSON. Nov. I0.-The jury in the case of H. D. Corbett Stationery Co.,, F. E. A, Kfmball and J. M. Jacobs & Son, who were tried on the charge of violation of the Sherman antitrust act, returned a verdict of not guilty Saturday night.
 The case which vas known as the School Book Trust" case, was the cause of much interest to the peopIe of Tucson and they believing that the local dealers were charging more than is customary in other cities for the school books. were instrumenrai m having an indictment returned against them last year. This indictment was later found to be faulty and the case was passed over to the next grand jury which met a few days ago and returned a second indictment Tn the case which was opened in the United States district court in this city Tues day and continued until late Satur- day afternoon, when the case was given to the jury for consideration, with the result that after having been out little over-two hours they re- turned a verdict of not guilty.
 A very interesting case this proved to be, as 1t is one of the few cases of the kind ever tried in the courts, be. ing the first heard in the local dls- trict court of the United States cir cult. Attorney Alexander, represent ing the prosecution, made a strong argument for his side of the case while the various attorneys TOT the defendants were equally dramatic in their pleading fer tneir clients.

CLANCY SAYS STA. ROSAL|A
 MINE IS GREAT
Returns From Sonora Very Much Pleased With Condi- tlons At the Old Property Active Work to Begin.

R. K. Clancy, who is promoting rn. Santa Rosalia mine, was yestenday showing several specimens of ore from the mine, some of which. he stated had assayed as high as s2,ee0 to the ton. The 25,000 shares of the stock which were placed on the mar ket, Clancy says, have all been sold and no more is offered In speaking of the property last night, he said:
 We expected to have the pumps go- ing before now, but the repair of the machinery has taken longer than we Anticipated This has about beer. completed, however, and the pu1nps will start the latter part of this or the early part of next week. As has been stated by your paper before, the Santa Rosalia Is an old mfne, which was an active producer up to ten years ago, and besides the four boilers on the ground, there is good hoist engine, and ten stamp mills. Thy latter can be put in good repair for $2,000 ana IL is our intention to later do this.
 The mine is proving even richer than anticipated above the water line, and we are already hostipg high grade stuff. We will be compelled to snip at first, but it is the intention ot the company to treat the ores at the mine, first at the stamp mills, sno then by the cyanide process. There are enough tai1ings left by the ola company to keep us busy for many months.
 While the property Is fifty miles from Cananea, and in district inhabited, we have never been troubled by the Yaquis, and do not expect to be. Game is plentiful, and we have venisen most of the time. Bear are also nxnerous in the vicinity. The Mexicans hunt but ht- tie and are poor shots, so that the game is not wild"
 Clancy will return to Cananea in two or three days, and go from there to the property, to superiDtend rur- ther work. He stated that the com pany owned property for a mile along where the vein of ore could be traced. He is very enthusiastic over the mine, and has no doubt, apparent ly, of it's making one of the greatest producers in the southwest.
