The most significant feature OF

DISSOLVE BONE N THROAT
Use Of Lemon Juice at Critical Time
10 Thing Worth Keeping
In Mind.

Sitting at a planked shad dinner In
Yonkers, laughing guest drew a bone
into his throat and he began to
strangle. Some onessuggested that the
sufferer swallow fragment of dry
bread.
ooh, no." exclaimed an Ossinng
man. Don't give him bread. 1t might
catch the bone and 1t might not. Give
him something that is sure to give re-
lief" Reckoning to a waiter, he said:
Bring me lemon, cut In two" And
II was brought without delay. Taking
one section, he offered 1t to the chok-
ing guest and told him to suck the
juice and to swallow 1t slowly. Direc-
tions were faithfully followed, and In
about a quarter of minute the af-
fiicted one placed the half lemon on
his plate, looked into the anxious faces
around the table and smiled.
We'll, Joe," said one, how about
it?'
IT'S gone" was the reply. "the bone
has slipped down.
mot exactly that" said the Ossin-
ing man. The bone slipped down, all
right, but 1t was melted first by the
citric acid. never knew 1t to fail
TO dissolve a fishbone. You can test
the power of lemon juice by dropping
some on the flshbopes you may have
lying on your plate
Several diners tried the experiment.
In each case the acid reduced the bone
to liquid gelatine.

dicates that this company has now
taken rs place as one of the country
substantial producers. The July ship
ments averaged about the minimum
tonnage OF the contract with the Ne
vada Consolidated people which calls
for from 900 To 200 tons per day Al
though the final figures on the profits
are not available for June, they were
IN the neighborhood OF $4,000.
Giroux has now Increased its ship
ments and at the present time 1000
tons per day for July and August
should be Increased to around 100000
pounds month. and Il is estimated
that The earnings for these months
win run between $4,000 and $4,000
Based on average grade of GirouN
ore and the treatment the maximum
Of / 200 tons per day. the property
will show production OF approx
