were received in this city which will
be SEN to Goldfeld today as a part
of the Comstock display. They are
maps of the Comstock workings. he
first reads: This map represents
600 miles of underground work on

"These works a distance
of four miles along the course OF the
lode"
The second reads, output OF

II Glimpse Into the Big C~0ncenrut0r at McGM

Saturday, pay days and the following
day, which nights they will remain
open until 10 p m.
Copper Ore is interested in this
movement only from the standpoint
Of progressiveness and the benefit of
our workers. Other towns and cities
, adopted these hours years ago and
it has never in a single locality
caused any loss to the merchants or
inconvenience to the public. We need
not go further than Ely to observe
how satisfactory this system is work
ing. Copper Ore has sounded a large
number of the workmen employed in
all departments of the S. V. S. & M.
Co. and has not heard one dissenting
voice against this movement. There
are only a small percentage of en-
ployes whose shift works until $50
and even these, under the proposed
plan will have an hour to make their
purchases, which ccurs to us is
ample time. Besides we will venture
to say the large part of their pur-
chases are made Saturday and pay
day nights. Copper Ore trusts this
movement will meet with the ap-
proval of every business house in
McGill.

Uhich Is Adding Steadily to Its 4Aeady Splendid Record

A view of the third section of the
Wiley floor of the concentration is
shown here. Operating in the mill
are eight of these sections, two Sec
tions to the unit. They are all going
steadily and with attendance of every
success, both in efficiency and guam
tity of work. The Wiley tables
shown here are on the top floor Of
the mill building proper, which rests
on concrete piers and the floor of the
different terraces are made of con-
crete. Recesses are left in the con-
crete for the launders from the table
and these are covered with plank.
There are four terraces, each held by
a concrete retaining wall, and two
gallery floors. On the first gallery
floor are the different trommels. On
the second gallery are the gallery
wilfleys. On the first terrace are the
rolls, and the first floor wil1eys. On
the inside of the second terrace are
the re-grinding mills and the No. 2
elevators, while on the outside slop
are Wiley tables. On the third ter
race are the tanks for catching the
concentrates. Each floor as has been
said, is recessed for all launders, SO
that they are out of the way and each
terrace slope has a 6-inch trough in
the concrete at it's bottom running
lengthways to the terrace into which
the spillings from the different ma
chimes are washed from time to time.
The mill consists of four units each
divided into two sections that are in
dependent of each other. All con-
centrates are conveyed in launders to
the concentrates tanks, and there are
only two belts one of which runs wet.
Centrifugal pumps are used for re-
turning water.

1t costs on an average about $3.50
to cure an incipient consumptive or
to care for an advanced case of tuber-
culosis until death. IL he is left in des-
titute circumstances without proper
attention he will surely infect with
his disease at least two other persons,
and possibly more. Considering that
the average life is worth to society
in dollars and cents about 81 800, the
net loss which would accrue to COM

sumptives in proper institutions would
be, for each case, including those who
are unnecessarily infected, at the very
lowest figure, $4,250 On this basis, If

ers.
And the Lord sent great white
angel unto the remainder and forbade
them, through the angel, to hearken
unto Death until they could serve Life
no longer.
For the Lord knew that the stern
dominion of Life must be, for the sake
of the men he hoped to complete.
But only few, a very few. Of the
children of men obeyed the angel. Let
Death but pass the toilers, and her
beauty was so great they continued to
desert their posts and follow after
her.
Then Life cried unto the Lord with
great voice;
Death seduces my servants!"
And the Lord said:
Deal with Death as thou wilt"
Therefore Life seized on Death and
cut away her perfumed locks, and put
on her painted mask, most hideous
to behold And he sealed the lips OF
Death, saying, BE thou dumb, and be
thou no longer known as woman"
With this he cast over Deaths won
derful form black mantle, like a pail,
and on it Life painted:
This is the King of Terrors."
Then he sent Death forth. and there
after whenever she came near the
workers they fed from her and cried
aloud unto Life:
Matters not how hard thy tasks. oh
dear Life, If thou wilt but save us
from this frightful Death!"
And Life said unto the Lord:
"Have | not done well?"
And he answered in exceeding sor.
row:
Needs must thy work on Death
stand. And this because of the weak
ness of men who were seduced by her
beauty and who needed not my an
gels voice. Yet very differently had
| planned for my people. For in the
beginning / set the loneliness of Death
plainly before them, that they might
endure their tasks happily, knowing
how sweet the end would be. But
they have defeated my wisdom. Or
their own heads be it,"
And Life went his way, satisfied
Thereafter when child or man be
came useless to him he cast 1t into
the arms of Death, because its tasl
| was finished.
And the soul of Death sang to thu
soul of the mortal given her, though
her lips were dumb, and she blessed 1
with an infinite blessing and bore l
away.
But the toilers incurred greatly tina
Death should have dominion over on
of their number, and they turned tn
more desperately to Life, who smile
sternly and was content.

GOOD WORK is LOVED WORK
And Therein One Should Find the
Contentment That Is Chief
Part OF Life.

If man doesn't love his work, he
had better get something else to do.
But the trouble is that such people
will hardly love any kind of work
The trouble is in them. They lack
intelligence. If they knew enough
to know good work, they would soon
learn to love it, The manual-train-
ing scheme has this in view--to sur
round the job man is doing with
such intelligence and taste as will
make 1t attractive to him,
'The man who is In love with his
job gets more contentment out of life
than any other" says Brander Mat
thews; and he gets a great part of his
contentment in doing his work right
No man can love his work who shirks
No man can be contented who is dis
honest about his work. This is shirk
ing or doing it negligently. SO these
things always go together-honest
work, contentment and love of the job

gree of heroism TO break the chains Of

II Eision at Chritfma,

TIN THE early days of men the Lord
sent two powers on earth to have
dominion over them. One of these
was Death-the other Life
The stern front of Life showed
what he really was: unmerciful,
exacting, swift to demand obedience
to a thousand laws, swift to punish
with the keen sword of pain when
those laws were broken.
His eyes were the eyes of war
lord; his hand as cold as iron-and as
strong.
The tasks he set were many. Few
of these were to the liking of the chill
dren of men, though some thinkers
perceived that out OF these heavy
tasks came strength, also that If one
wrestled with them stout'y one might
even master Life himself and compel
him to graciousness.
Now the other Observation-Disclosures
q woman.
Tall she was, but so perfectly
formed that her height was no blem-
ish. Sleepy-eyed she was, but her
slow, sweet smile was so infinitely
tender and lovely that In the midst of
their tasks men stopped to gaze on
her as she passed.
At last one of the young men fol-
lowed her. She spoke to him-her
voice being that unspeakable music
which not even a violin can outsing-
and the young man returned into the
fields of Life no more.
Then little child, weary of flower
gathering, pulled at her garments
hem, and all the workers held their
breath, waiting to see what Death
would do; for Life had painted her in
very evil colors.
But Death lifted the child and laid
her on her own deep bosom and sang
to her.
AS she sang the child slept, and an
exquisite smile fingered on its lips, as
though it's visions were very fair
Then Death held out the child that
the workers might see, and cried:
"Oh, we who labor, beset with un
ending toll, see we how | have blessed
the child? Never more shall the heat
of summer vex her, nor the cold Of
winter | have made her deaf to sor
row and unmoved by the vibrations yt
call Joy. Forever shall her brow &c
unwrinkled, and because she haiti
chosen me l will give her the key tt
Heavens immortal gates"
And a worker cried:
"Ye have blessed the child because
she was your chosen one?"
The cry was question.
Said Death dreamily:
"As gave the child peace. SO woult
/ give 1t to all who come to me
trusting me wholly" -.-s..e.
Looking out across the blazing
fields she stretched her rounded arm
and cried: "Ye are all nina! Love
of souls am ""
And with one accord they threy
down their tools and followed her int
q far land, beyond the domain of Life
Now Life was vexed exceedingly b
the unfinished task. He went straight
