Portable bedrooms. Two Of these
seem to be somewhat cut up owing to
the way the roof is formed; yet, these
extra spaces are by no means disad-
vantages. The small balcony over the
front porch and opening from the
large dormer window is a feature that
is both ornamental and useful.
The cost Of this comfortable dwell
ing is estimated at $4,000. This would
provide for oak floors for the living

What Children leach Us.

Children make us kindly toward all
children. They open up fountains Of
sympathy. Children teach us infinite
ly more than we can teach them
Children are really given to train up a
parent in the way he should go. Chill
dren bring us messages straight from
heaven-messages of innocence, ten
derness, dependence, love. A parents
love and sacrifce-a true father or
mother would die for their child--is a
vision Of the supreme sacrifice in
Christ. A true home with the child
In the midst becomes a very window
Of heaven.

superintendent Chas. L. Jaynes re-
ports the situation at the Almira
group of claims to be in very en-.
couraging condition. He is drifting
east from the East Chicago Belle shaft
and there has been encountered an
eighteen inch streak of quartz from
which samples assaying $40 per ton
were taken. There was a showing Of
about ten per cent in copper, 81
ounce in gold and fourteen ounces in
silver. This showing is only about
fifty feet from the surface and there
is no question but that with sinking
to a reasonable depth a large vein
ct solid ore will be encountered.
This is one of the finest surface show
ings that has been opened up in that
district. The company already has
about seven tons on the plats which
will be shipped as soon as full car
load Is taken out. This Is the same
vein as the Chicago Belle and the

value OF about $3.50 per ton. This
