HANDSOME As A DREAM.

Something new in the way Of ad-
vice always leaves an impression
with US, therefore we couldn't refrain
from letting our readers share with
US this valued recipe. But to begin
with, the recipe will be called the
st. Wits system of beauty culture.
How's that? Believe muh, Mabelle. It
Is guaranteed to grow a pretty mug
on what has been the homeliest Wis
age. To begin with, you must stand
in front OF a mirror and make faces
at yourself and shrink from the re-
flected image. Then exercise each
separate part of the face as much as
possible by smiling. grinning. frown.
ing. simpering. laughing. pouting
scowling. puckering mp the lips And
anything else that may occur to you
1t is only necessary that you do this
at least six times a day for about
five minutes at a stretch, and in the
course OF a short time you will be
handsome as a dream. OF course
don't let your relatives or friends o.
the marshal. nightwatch, mayor. fire
chief or street sprinkler see you. OIL
he may have you sent to the nul
house. But is that price too high Il
pay for beauty?

BALL TEAM DIssANDs.

was decided to disband for the seas

the early disbandment. The gate re-

Various kinds of base ball were

team had during the season. But sc

THE COW BOY GROUP.

j. c. Krutz and associates, of Elk

This property yielded rich ore when
worked years ago. Work Of cleaning

stead of waiting to cut the vein
through the tunnel. He is loud in his
praise Of the fine surtace showings

to stay.
Having worked In several Of the
Nevada camps, his opinion Is that II
one-tenth OF the money was spena

Miss Rose Adella Dawson, national

largely Of one Of her fine addresses
for the benefit of those who do not

but offerings will be taken for the

q national reputation both ~ q lect-

HOPE FOR THE SMALL
MINE HOLDER

The prospector has much to learn.
1t is hardly possible that he looked
beyond his discovery. His vision was
limited to that which he found. He
hardly saw beyond that. Once passed
his first assessment work, things
loomed large. Unless he sold now he
saw many sleepless nights before
him. How was he, alone, to work
below the second assessment Of twen-
ty feet? He may have been able to
secure patent. having expended in
labor the requisite amount. At this
period his property looks more for
mible than ever. How will he enlist
capital in his cause II he retains the
property up to now? He is really un-
fortunate not to have made some
sort Of deal at this stage. He may
possess very good thing, but he ha
no means Of proving It. There are
a number Of other properties In the
same district, all in about the con-
dition Of the person mentioned.
Things are at a stand-still. Maybe,
in time. some one Of these will get
into the hands of people able to ex-
ploit them thoroughly. II they show
anything at fifty feet, they are pretty
reliable.
There are number of good min
ing districts in the state that are in
the position above stated. Probably
one property producing out Of the
lot This one mine may in time, take
in all the others through purchase.
At last the prospector has realized
on his discovery, but his dream has
been rudely shattered. His find was
something of which he could immc-
diately hope to turn into cash. There
was reason in the thought of realiz-
ing almost Immediately. Mining was
a novelty and held great attractions
to capital. But the left-overs, those
prove how much can yet be done in
the mining way in the state.
An exceptionally large number Of
mines in this district came into the
possession of companies and are still
held by such. Numbers are working
but many ceased operation for one
thing or another. though they are not
worked out by any means. What
these old-tfme companies can be ex.
pecting is not rightly understood.
Their owners would seem ~ have
grown apathetic or the Snocsstors Q,
heirs lack the enthusiasm of theii
predecessors and Micawber-Ake are
waiting for something to turn up. II
may, In time, as great number are
changing hands or are being leased
by enterprising miners who know oi
their value and hope to profit by the
knowledge they possess. The oil
prospector, who still retains his dis
covery is in fair way to realize. for
as said. big companies will come in
to being and they will include hii
property in their purchase.

a FINE DISPLAY.

Through the untiring energy Of the
chairman Of the committee on Ex
hibits, VIM. Bishop, a commendable
display Of chipping ores gathered
from many Of the mines OF the coun-

worth the while Of anyone interested
in minerals. In values the ores run
from $4,000 to $4,000 per ton. The
variety OF ores shown is a revelation
as they cover most everything de-
sirabie in the metallurgical line and
proves that old Gilpin still has the
real stuff. Among the mines repre-
senked are the following: Topeka,
Pswabic, Old Town, Federal, Rails

WHAT. WE NEED.

While cyanidation, zinc separa
tion and improved milling practicei
are absolutely necessary factors fol
our future prosperity, there IL still
one thing more Of equal or even
greater Importance which invites thu
serious and mature consideration d
the. owners Of our mines and that
one thing is, Development.
ACTIVE, progressive and judicioua
development work, kept we'll ahead
Of the slopes is always necessary
for the preservation and life Of every
mine, as well as the evolution Of a
prospect into a mine. Without it, the
industry will surely drag and pro
gress is impossible. On the other
hand wherever It is practiced to any
material degree, even in compare
lively partial way in every great
mineralized section similar to the
San Juan district. prosperity will In
evitably follow in its wake. To ne
glect 1t in any mine, no matter how
great It's possibilities, is to invite
failure.
mo mine can live and prosper
under the ill-advised policy of cutting
its reserves in the slopes and pay
ing little or no attention to the de-
velopment of its virgin territory, and
increasing or at least maintaining its
reserves. The true value OF every
mine is fixed from its reserves and
careful estimates Of its prospective
possibilities, derived from rational
computations based on its geological
conditions and past history. Reserves
can only be established and pros
pective values ultimately determined
by means OF vigorous and judicious
development work.
Hence 1t follows, that in addition
to striving for the introduction of
modern and improve methods Of
ore dressing. we must also encourage
development on vigorous and sys-
tematic lines, as an important and
necessary factor for our future pros
perity."-Silverton Standard.

eonly you don't taste it. The pucker is
caused by little sacs or cells, of tannin.
So when you bite into an uncured fruit
these sacs burst and the mucous MEM

go through a tanning process. That's
why 1t hurts so.
''The fruit in our new process really

keep oxygen away from the persimmon

a change, from a liquid to crystals.
These crystals will not dissolve. Hence
they become like so many minute par
