Wyoming and one that will mean
more to the Encampment district,
and incidentally to the state of
Wyoming, has just been complet-
ed. 1t is the purchase of the
properties of the Penn Wyoming
Copper company, a $1O,OOO,OOO
corporation, which has been oper-
ating in Carbon county, by the
United Shelters, Railway and
Copper company, a Wyoming cor

S12,500,000. The purchase in
cludes the railroad, smelter, water

the copper mines owned by the
Penn Wyoming company, inelud-
ing the famous Ferris Haggarty
and Doane- Rambler copper mines.
The amount paid by the United

The United SHELTERS, Railway
and Copper company will immed-
lately start il to spend at least
$25O,00O in extending its mine op-
erations and opening up the ore
bodies so that a much larger force

on the extraction of ores, thus
producing a much larger tonnage.

WHAT is PANTY

The paint on a house is the extreme
outside of the house. The wood is
simply a structural under layer. That
Is as it should be. Unprotected wood
will not well withstand weather. But
paint made of pure white lead and
linseed oil is an ~invulnerable armor
against sun and rain, heat and cold.
Such paint protects and preserves,
fortifying the perishable wood with a
complete metallic casing.
And the outside of the house is the
looks of the house. A well-construct-
ed building may be greatly depre-
ciated by lack of painting or by poor
painting.
National Lead Company have made
it possible for every building owner
to be absolutely sure of pure white
lead paint before applying. They do
this by putting upon every package

Women in Postal Service.

The distinction of first appointing a
woman postmaster does not belong to
America, nor is the employment OF
women in the postal service a new
idea. AS early as 1913 a woman post
master was appointed to look after
the mails of Braine lie Comte, an i'm
portant town of France. In the try
ing times of the Thirty Years war,
the principal Office in the postal serv-
ice of Europe was held by a woman,
Alexandrine de Rue. From 1928 to
1916 she was in charge of the mails
of the German empire, the Neither
lands, Burgundy and Lorraine. She
was known as a master general of the
mails. In America, Elizabeth Harvey
was the first to hold a place in the
postal department. She had charge
of the letters in Portsmouth, N. H., in
the beginning of the seventeenth CEN
fury. A half century afterward Lydia
Hill was placed in charge of the post
office in Salem, Mass.

Why We Are Stronger.

The old Greeks and Romans were
great admirers of health and strength;
their pictures and statuary made the
muscles of the men stand out like
cords.
AS a matter of fact we have ath-
letes and strong men-men fed on
fine strength making food such as
Quaker Scotch Oats-that would win
in any contest with the old Roman or
Greek champions.
It's a matter of food. The finest food
for making strength of bone, muscle
and nerve is fine oatmeal. Quaker
Scotch Oats is the best because it is
pure, no husks or stems or black
specks. Farmers wives are finding
that by feeding the farm hands plenti-
fully on Quaker Scotch Oats they get
the best results in work and economy.
If you live in a hot climate buy Quaker
Scotch Oats in Theoretically sealed
tins. 1t keeps sweet and fresh. 2

THE STORY.

nRATTATHIAS and his son had not
ll been many months in the noun
tain Businesses after his flight fol-
lowing the killing of the apostate Jew
upon the heather altar and the COM
missioner from the king, before it was
noised all through the land what he
had done and how for the sake of his
religion he had rejected the offer of
riches and honors and intimate fell
lowship with the king. Now this
caused those in whose hearts there
burned the true light and who de-
sired to serve the true God to rejoice
and day after day there went out
from Jerusalem and the surrounding
country those who preferred a resi-
dence in the wilderness near the
champion of their God and the true
religion than a place amidst the sim
ful indulgences of the apostate Jews.
In this way it came to pass in time
hat a large number of people found
dwelling places in the wilderness, and
they were content, for they were able
to worship God after the command
ments of Moses and no longer suf-
fered the prosecutions and trials
which had been their, portion when
dwelling in the cities.
Now when tidings Of this thing
reached the ears Of the king he was
wroth. and ordered that his armies
should pursue after those in the viii
and either bring them back
and compel their worship and serv-
ice of the heather gods, or utterly
destroy them. And when these SOL
diers came upon the people, they were
for giving battle at once, but M OF
their number, who was a Jew. spoke
up and said:
