of appearances is only too frequent
both among men and women It's most
common symptoms are constant feel

depression and crossness, failure Of
appetite, with all sorts of vague, I'M

MACHINERY INSTALLED
FOR DEEP MINING
United Mining Go. Going to Lower Levels
for the Red Metal

ter the red metal in the right man
ner. 1t is the first heavy hoist to be
installed and the deepest shaft tnat
has so far been sunk on any OF the
big outcrops that are held under To-
cation. The corporation has made
little noise about its affairs and all of
the stockholders are non-residents
There has been no publicity given
the affair but the results nave been
most satisfactory to those personally
interested. With the new equipment
it is expected to crosscut the sec
ton and continue the shaft to depth
that will prove the entire section.
With the work that is planned and
the ore that is in sight it can be
stated tnat the United Mines Co. has
done more in a real mining way than
any of the other corporations in that
section.
Mr. Cowden is expected TO arrive
in this city at any time when the ru-
ture of the property can be made
public. Mr.. Cowden has certainly
proved himself hustler and stick
er, as he has kept the property run
ming in spite of hard times and
slump all along the line. A few more
mining men such as he and MIR. Fos-
ter would bring this section to the
front as bullion producer.
