WINNIPEG, Aug. 24.-Weather
has turned very cold here today and
last night Jack Frost stepped in and
nipped the garden truck. But for the
cloudy weather, there would have
been a very hard frost. Wheat is so
far advanced 1t is not believed frost
can do much Damage except to lower
the grades. Thrashing is in full
swing in most of the west and the
yield Is satisfactory.

More white things are worn in the sum
merlawns, Aannels, muslins and 50 forth.
That means more washing. Likewise more
hard work-unless Fels-Naptha soap is used.
Fels-Naptha simplihes summer washing
and does it more satisfactorily. No hot
fire is needed. That means a good deal
when the thermometer is 80 in the shade
Fels-Naptha does the washing thor
oughly in cold or lukewarm water. Cold
or lukewarm water saves the clothes. Boil
ing and hot water weaken clothes so they
tear easily.
Fels-Naptha will not harm the most
delicate fabric. Neither will it injure light
colored things which could not be washed
safely with other soaps or in hot water.
The advantage Of using Fels-Naptha
soap is the Fels- Naptha way Of washing.
Don't cook your clothes. Use
Fels-N aptha. It does the work better in
cold or lukewarm water.

Company Now Loading Cars
With Ore in Expectation
of Rail Facilities.

Extremely good news reached Sal;
Lake yesterday for the stockholders OF
the Mendha Nevada Mining company,
The property is choked with ore, and
permission had been asked OF the Salt
Lake Route TO utilize several cars on the
siding at Phoebe for ore pending the re-
sumption OF railroad operations. This
permission has been granted. and sew
cral cars soon viii be filled with ore in
readiness for open railroad service again
which is expected 10 date from May 10.
The force OF men rebuilding the line has
been greatly increased lately, and sooc
progress is being made in bringing the
line back TO normal
The Mendha- Nevada VIII without
doubt have the distinction of being the
first dividend paying proposition OF the
Piocho resurrection period. for by Au-
gust the officials expect TO be distributing
profits among the stockholders. Latest
developments promise 10 make the Mend
ha-Nevada one OF the great mines of the
Sagebrush state. The management on
the 700 foot level has followed the ore
for 500 feet towards the gigantic porphyry
dixie. which is now known to be the
source OF the naturalization, and the
drift Is about half way to the dixie. Ore
IL is logical to expect that on the con-
tact with the dixie will be found the
largest deposit Of ore so far encountered
in the mine.
In raising from the 700 level the COM
pany finds that the thickness OF the ore
is Increasing steadily from the to S

TWO or three minor breaks at the known
faults this orc should be continuous en-

fore never was In better shape, and with
its most logical era OF big results not
far distant The company is planning
the purchase OF new 100 horse power
compressor in order To carry forward bet
ter work on the 500 level and along the
poTphyry dixie when the latter Is encoun-
tered.
Heretofore the ha-Nevada has
been noted for it's lead poisoning OF
miners. and the work OF raising In the

bile from this source. therefore, Is 10 be
expected hereafter. T. J. Osborne of Salt
