quite young, for the word used
TO tell OF Mordeeai's kindness
carries the thought Of "nour.

and father strength and protee-
ton. II would have seemed that
her life was blighted and all
hope Of the future gone. But
the breaking up OF the home and

Gin afforded her Just the oppor-
tunity she needed Of prepare.
ton for the exalted place which
she came to MI. He was con-
neeted with the royal establish
ment and could thus bring his
young charge into the atmos-
phere and life for which she was

Think Of the anguish Of that
mother as she looked upon her
little girl and realized she must
leave her. Think OF the father
whose heart was torn within
him az he lay dying because No
longer would his arm be strong
10 protect the tender little life
which was unfolding so beauti-
fully. But the tragedy Of that
home gave birth not to a blasted

the belief that the parents OF
Esther when called upon 10

that II brought comfort to their

his hands she was safe.
How marvelously the provi.
denees Of God stand out in this
beautiful story. Every step is
marked by the everything hand
OF God. and yet the name Of God
10 nowhere mentioned In the

True piety Is expressed in the
life rather than by the lips.

be in condition for operation before
the heavy SHOWS of the winter covers

A shaft Of 30 feet has been sunk
and lead Of 1000 feet has been
opened up. A carload of ore has been
already taken from the mine and is
ready for shipment. a late assay of
the ore shows as.5 per cent copper
with a good showing Of silver and
gold. Some very much higher assays
than this have been secured but the
above figures are the average assay
of the ore.
The company has placed John II.
Miles of Butte. in charge of the prop

of 10 men will be kept at work on the
mine during the entire winter.
