Ore Shipments
Show Increase

Mining in Gilpin county is improv-
ing and, this the most skeptical must
admit. This is indicated by the large
increase in shipments to the valley
smelters during the past two months.
The records at the Black Hawk de-
pot show. that during the month of
March 178 C. & s cars were sent
out. During the month of April 181
cars were shipped, The shipments
last month we're the highest they
have been since August, 1908.
During the months of March and
April Of last year 131 and 134 cars
respectively were sent from Black
Hawk. So it will be seen that the
ore sent out during a corresponding
period this year is considerably in ex
cess of that during 1910.
During the month of March the
tonnage and revenue Of the Gilpin
tram were in excess of any month
since October, 1906. April shows an
increase over March and from the in
dications so far this month, the rec
ords will have to be scanned for
decade back to find figures that will
equal the May 1911 business.
The values in the ore now being
shipped are much better than ever
before. The bulk of the shipments
are made up of the concentrating
product, all the waste, of course ,hav-
The smelling ore is also OF a good
grade.

Gently aquired the Concrete mine,

The new company will carry on ex.

They also control the Freedom.

Fads in Footwear.

Truly wonderful in their daintiness are
some of the new pumps and shoes to be
worn this summer. Manufacturers arc
waiting for the first warm days to
launch white footgear in manner cal
culated to work havoc to the nerves OF
the women who remember what care
must be taken to keep such slippers in
good condition.
White velvet is to have a tremendous
| vogue. if one judges from the models.
/ To wear with afternoon frocks there are
pumps of this exquisite material, and
that they shall appear more delicate
! than ever, tiny pearl-not rhinestone
| buckles will be used at the top OF the
! vamps. a woman who prefers rhine
stones may have them, but pearls are
smarter
/ posed of tiny white beads, reproducing
the beadwork which is popular now
on waists.
There are low shoes of white velvet,
dancing slippers. the latter differing only
from pumps in that they are not cut SO
high over the foot, and the heels are
even a little higher.
| Silk slippers are fad for girls of large
| incomes They will have pumps TO
match their best frocks. not only in col
or, but in material. The. price will pro-
hibit the fad from having great pop
ular1ty.
Shoes or mules of brocades may not
| sound attractive, but when the figures
are in self colors they are beautiful.
Mules are for boudoir or chamber wear,
! and have heels. but no backs.
| There is a distinct tendency to differ
| ence of shape in shoes for dress and
morning wear. For the latter time. wide
cut vamps with low heels are the smart
est Pretty no one can call them. but
| for walking, tennis, golf. OF indeed any
| exercising, they are the most comfortable
and will not injure the feet. The toes
are round. not square. and the shape
preferred verges perilously near to those
| known as 'orthopedic." The fact that
! fashionable girls are wearing them rec
| onci}es others to their ugliness-
| For afternoon and evening pointed toes
! and long vamps continue to be liked.
| Ruckskin will be worn by women this
| summer more than will canvas. The lat
| ter material has not the dressiness of
skin, nor does it hold shape as well.
Canvas merit lies in It's GOODNESS.

Care of the Face.

Disregard of the condition of the face
wells habitually worn has more than once
been the cause of poor complexion. Tn
less the veil is of good quality, and,
above all. unless it is clean there is no
end to the harm that it can do to the
skin. This is obvious once a person re-
members that the meshes worn over the
face press closely against the complexion,
and that with every turn of the head
there is slight friction If there is the
least dust in the material or dye so
cheap as to be injurious has been used
in its manufacture, eruption of the skin
is almost inevitable. Continued use of q
dusty veil will cause blackheads which
will appear until the veil is given up.
No veil should be worn more than twice
without cleansing, for il the street it
catches all the dust and retains it, more
than does the complexion. Fortunately
an alcohol bath takes only moment to
give, and if a veil IS wrapped immediate
ly smoothly about a large stick such as
piece of broom handle, it will later
look like new.
To give the bath. a small quantity of
grain. not wood, alcohol is poured into
china basin and the veil immersed. 1t is
not squeezed nor rubbed during the
process. Drying takes only moment. If
the alcohol appears to be very dirty
only when veil has been used a long
time without cleansing
The alcohol may be bottled and used
over again until it is soled.
The same structures used against soil
ed veil apply equally to face cloths. 4
woman s complexion cannot be clear and
smooth if she employs soiled agents for
cleansing it, and a face cloth that has
been used more than week is SOiled, no
matter though it may not have that APP
pearance.
The fact that it has removed dust from
the face, and has not later been carefully
washed. causes it to contain at least the
possibility of germs. if the latter have
not actually developed. A face cloth must
be not only washed once week but must
be boiled then to make 1t antisepticaly
clean.
Most scrupulous attention should be
given by each person to use only his or
her own towel in the family bathroom.
a skin apparently healthy may contain
elements injurious to another and frc-
ton is a direct means of contagion,
should there be any.
