Of earth, but here and there, a huge shoulder of
rock thrusts itself above the surface; here and
there great ledge plows Its way through the

these mountain roots were not permitted to re-

years. The incident had its inspiration in poll

the ministry looked around to see what could be

that 1t would be good politics to give 1t to them
So 1t was decided to build a railroad from North
bay, on the shores OF Lake Nipissing, to connect

the moss from it anywhere and there Is gold.
Nothing in the history Of gold mining better
illustrates the eccentricties Of gold miners than
the discovery of the Dome" The discovering
party consisted Of three men, headed by JACK
Wilson. The expedition was financed by Chi
cago man named Edwards, who was engaged In
the manufacture of lighting fixtures. Edwards
was to put up all the money in return for
half interest in anything that might be discov-
cred. Wilson was to have quarter interest and
each of the other two eighth.
For several weeks they prospected first to the
east of Porcupine lake, in Whitney township, then
to the west in Tisdale township. They found
gold and staked some claims. But the great
Dome" although they camped, some Of the time.

eyes. When the moss was on he could not help
seeing the gold. The great ridge that was hence
forth to be known the Wilson Dome" had
been found. Stakes were driven and claim laid
to the huge boulder.
Perhaps the most remarkable story however,
prospector named 'Bill" Woodney.
mining man whom believe to be reliable told
me that Bill came to him one day and showed him
a remarkably rich piece Of gold quartz, at the
same time asking him where he supposed 1t came
from.
Not from anywhere in Canada" was the reply.
Il thought you would say that" was the COM
ment, but you are wrong.
Then Bill" told his story.
He said the quartz given to him by a widow.
Her husband had been accidentally killed a short
time before she gave 1t to him. The widow told
him that the quartz came from a vein near Lake
Abitib frigid sheet of water up toward Hudsons
bay 300 miles north Of Cobalt Her husband and
two other men whom she named had found the
vein. They had not staked their claims and regis
tered them with the government at Toronto be-
cause such registration would have been notifca-
ton to the world that they had found gold in the
region Winter was near when the discovery was
made and they wanted to return in the spring.

WOULD LIE AWAKE ALL NIGHT
WITH ITCHING ECZEMA

Ever since / can remember I was
a terrible sufferer of eczema and
other irritating skin diseases. would
lie awake all night, and my suffering
was intolerable. A scaly humor set
tied on my back, and being but q
child, naturally scratched it. 1t
was a burning. itching sensation, and
utterly intolerable. in fact. it was so
that l could not possibly forget about
it. 1t did not take long before it
spread to my shoulders and arms, and
was almost covered with a mass of
raw flesh on account Of my scratching
1t. / was in such a condition that my
hands were tied
"A number of physicians were call
ed, but it seemed beyond their med
ical power and knowledge to cure
me- Having tried numerous treat
ments without deriving any benefit
from them, had given myself up to
the mercy of my dreadful malady, but
I thought / would take the Cuticura
treatment as a last resort. Words
cannot express my gratitude to the
one who created The Cuticura Mira
cles,' as / have named them, for now
I feel as II never suffered from even
a pimple. My disease was routed by
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and 1
shall never cease praising the wonder
full merits they contain. will never
be without them, in fact, can almost
dare any skin diseases to attack me
SO long as have Cuticura Remedies
in the house. hope that this letter
will give other sufferers an idea Of
how suffered. and also hope that
they will not pass the 'Cuticura Life
