Minnear & Co.'s Gossip

The American visible supply on
July 31st last combined with the
European supply reported for August
Is makes a total Of stocks internal
tionany held Of 3s7.405,47s pounds
compared with SO3.7OO.GO7 pounds on
the same dates in 1903, an increase
OF S3.704.s71 pounds.
The statement of the Producers as
ISOLATION for July showed that there
had been an increase in the American
surplus during that month Of but p
100000 pounds. The basis exists,
therefore, for the belief that the po-
sition of copper for the next few
months, at least, will be in the direc-
tion OF a d minsh ng surplus, which
tendency should give some upl IT to
the price OF the metal.

Paine, Weber & Co.'S Gossip

Officials of the Western Electric
company report the July gross fully
so per cent larger that IL was in the
corresponding month hast year. The
gross for seven months suggests a
total fog the full ~ months of more
than 61 100000 dollars which COM
pares with 52,0O0,OOO in the last fiscal
year. The company's largest busin-
ess was in 1907 when it reached gross
sales of nearly s72OO0,0OO.
The Atlantic Mining company is
planning extra work i'm the horizon

tons and 3. where a drill is expect
ed To be i'm commission shortly. The
territory TO be exploited presumably
carries the southerly extension of the
quincy lode
Arcadian trenchlng operations in
the horizon east OF Arcadian lode on
Section II have resulted in the dis
closure of an unidentified amygdaloid
lode richly charged with copper. The
showing was made at a depth Of be-
tween 25 and 30 feet I'm the trench.
The lode was previously disclosed by
drilling. the drin core showing a
width of Is feet. of which about s
feet carried copper in commercial
quantity.
In the disclosure of native copper
mixed with copper ore i'm the bottom
of Algomah shaft the change has not
been radical and the ore still FREEDOM
mates, the amount of native copper
being only limited. This change has
been constantly expected. because ~
is assumed as natural. in view of the
prevalent conditions i'm the Lake SUI
perior district that the Algomah ore
will be replaced entirely by native
copper at depth. Therefore the first
tendency I'm that direction as mani
Tested Wednesday. is destined 10 at
tract much attention. The showing is
very promising for large and rich

Algomah is operating on the souther-
" extension Of the Lake bed has not
been determined but apparently both
formations are Identical. a diamond
drill was delivered at the Algomah
property and will begin work in a
few days.
London cables indicate a heavy
buying movement OF copper in that
city. While much of this is undoubt-
eddy for speculation, a considerable
tonnage will find its way into con-
sumers hands in various European
countries. Electrolytic copper in this
country is selling through October on
a I2% cent basis. the highest price
OBTAINED for months. American con-
sumers have bought large tonnages
but they have by no means filled their
requirements The American Brass
company, for instance. has bought
sufficient copper only for its immed-
fate requirements. This holds true
also with other large consumers. A
strong belief prevails among some OF
the largest producers and sellers Of
copper that the August statement Of
the Copper Producers association will
show a large decrease in stocks and
hand. II is interesting TO note that
refineries during June were unable to
operate their casting department AT
full blast owing TO extremely high
temperatures.

ATTRACTIVE CALENDAR.
The Pabst Extract Calendar Girl I'm
usually Attractive.

Everyone knows the Pabst Extract
Calendar Girl. Each year she appears in
a new guse-perennially young-always
more and more beautiful. One year she
is the Jewel Girl. The next year she
blossoms forth as the Rose Girl
But, for 1910, she has chosen a role that
will appeal most forcibly to all-The
Typical American Girl.
The winsome sweetness of her grace
embodies at once unsullied beauty. soft
est and sweetest innocence, strength of
character and tender force. She is THE
American Girl.
The artists criterion in producing this
conception was that of true beauty-in
that its charms increase on examination.
Seventeen printings Were required to
produce this picture-indeed the Pabst
Extract people have refused. on request
to state the amount paid for it-saying
I'VE are afraid we would not be believed
if we told the sum we expended for 1910.
The public has come to look for our
calendar every year-we are forced to
make it better and better"
The American Girl calendar is free
from all advertising and is worthy of a
place in any room in any house.
All that is necessary is to send 10c in
stamps or silver to cover the cost of mail

PRESERVING the Birds.

In the great cry for the conservation
serves have been little considered by
the people, but those who are at the
head of a movement for conservation,
have given some attention to the mat
ter. AS a result 81 bird preserves have
been created by proclamation of the
President The Audubon societies have
taken the lead in this part of the con-
servation movement and have increas-
ed their activities lately because of the
recent demand for plumage with which
to decorate hats. This demand has
caused the unprecedented slaughter of
birds and there is grave danger that
many valuable species will be greatly
depleted, if indeed they do not become
extinct
Birds are friends of man for they
will kill more harmful worms and in
sects be- fore the farmer is out of bed in
the morning than he can kill with his
hands in year. The movement to
protect such birds is particularly
commendable one. 1t is true that some
birds eat certain farm crops, but the
value of the crops they eat is more
than offset by the good they do in
fighting the far more destructive insect
pests

Metric System for China.


The Chinese have shown a DISPOSE
ton to adopt Western ways, customs
and institutions which promises great
things for the yellow race. Within a
few years they have taken steps which
will provide the nation with a written
constitution, inaugurated a campaign
against the use of opium, made rapid
to frown upon Western doctrines in
their schools and have adopted a
friendly attitude toward improved
transportation facilities. Two years
ago it became known that the Chinese
government intended to unity the
weights and measures of the empire,
which were in a deplorable state. Ell
forts were made by advocates of the
metric and English systems to induce
China to adopt their respective units
of measurement. In 1908 the Chinese
techi. unit of length was defined as
equal to 80 centimeters. II is evident
that the metric system appealed to our
yellow neighbors on account of the
ease with which it is computed, for the
new Chinese system is decimal with
the eventual adoption of that system.

The new king of Belgium has taken
steps to bring about the reforms,
promised long ago by his predecessor,
but never inaugurated. 1t is index
stood that the governor general of the
Belgium Congo will give way to man
who it is believed will be more mer-
ciful to the natives. King Albert has
promised a just and humane rule
there and has taken the only course
open to him to procure it, that is, the
removal of the man responsible for
past abuses The conditions in the
Congo have been a disgrace for years
and while Leopold lived there was no
chance that the reform would be more

Land Spectators.

Sir Horace Plunket of Dublin, in an

increase. the growth in food crops. II
see a rapidly growing cost of living"
said the speaker. 1T may be dcvel-
oped that it is because there has been
a great advanced cost in distribution,
but it may appear also that produc-
ton is much more costly. There may,
however, be other reasons. | think
that the system of agriculture of the
Central West or that part of it settled
thirty years ago or such matter, was
the most extravagant | ever saw. The
so-called farmer was not a farmer.
He was. | should say, a land spccu-
lator. He went into the country
knowing that the land was sure to rise
and that eventually from it's sale he
would make profits. So he bought all
the land he could get hold of, and then
robbed the land to meet his obliga-
tons. There has got to be a change"
1t is this farmer" that the speaker
described who is now moving to the
Canadian Northwest to repeat his per-
Torrance. His place will be taken
eventually by real farmers and 1t may
he that a solution of the problem to
which Sir Horace and Mr.. Hill have
called our attention will be found in
this shifting of the farm ownership
from land spectators to farmers. In
anv event the matter is worthy of
more than passing attention for it
affects the pocket books of all of us.

That sort of religion ought TO appeal
to the men and women who have been
staying away from church because
they did not want to be scared to
death once a week. Getting ready to
die is wise precaution, for no one can
stay here forever, bat getting ready to
live is better for the individual and the
community in which he lives.
1t isn't always those who can pray
the loudest 10 be spared from the
wrath to come, who live such lives that
they can rightly expect any special dis
pensation of mercy. Less preaching to
the multitude through public prayer
and more practice of the LordS teach
ings is better insurance against He'll
fire
Any religion which enables man to
live temporarily, joyfully, honestly,
and in communion with Him who gives
the very spark of life itself, is good.
The sort of religion which keeps man
busy all his life getting ready to die,
doesn't conform to the teachings of the
Son. The man who lives right need
not fear for the hereafter.
The keynote sounded by the Rev. Mr..
Gray appeals to the better, brighter
side of US. 1t is an excellent spirit to
imbibe. In this age of skepticism and
indifference we need just that slogan
if it may be called such. Get ready to
live"
