showing abundant evidence of great
volcanic and chemical activity in
days gone by.
The greatest silver mining dis

should make such a heavy invest
ment for a supply far in excess of
the requirements of Tonopah at
that tine. but he realized that
Tonopah was destined to become
one of the biggest mining camps
of our country and provided I'm
advance for it's demands.
In the present reorganization he
is again showing his confidence in
the still further growth of our
industries and has strengthened
his company by interesting some of
the best known New York business
men and finaneiers in this enter
prise.
Having these heavy financial in
terests associated with him the COM
pany will be prepared to meet the
increased demand for water that
the erection of additional mills by
the Halifax, Mlzpah Extension, To-
nopah Merger and possibly other
companies, will surely create.
F. A. Burnham, who has had
the management of the water com
pany for the last few years, will
continue as manager for three years
to come, as he is under contract to
the concern.

NEW TONOPAH DIVIDE COMPANY
IS ORGANIZED TO WORK CLAIMS
SIX MILES SOUTH OF TONOPAH

Six miles south of Tonopah, in
the Tonopah and Gold Mountain
district, mining operations. outlined
last week in this paper, are assum-
ing proportions of the first import
ance and the property upon which
the Macdonald lease is working,
owned by George Wingfield and
Cal Brougher, is making a show
ing of shipping ore that has at
tracted the attention of mining
men throughout southern Nevada.
The property has been idle for
some time past and the directors
have sent out a statement in a
circular letter to stockholders in
the old company owning the ground,
apprising them of the fact that
their ground had been acquired by
the Tonopah Banking corporation,
for Indebtedness to the bank. and
that, upon the sale of the property
Messrs. Wingfield and Brougher
had bought it in and now own H.
says the Goldfield Tribune.
The purchasers of this property
have incorporated a company known
as the Tonopah Divide Mining com
pany, with the stock assessable. It's
capitalization is 100000 in shares
Of the par value of s. and owners
of the stock of the old Tonopah
Gold Mountain company may ex-
change their shares, share for
share, for those of the new com
pany, upon the payment of an orig
inal assessment of three cents per
share. The purchasers of the prop
erty have assumed the Indebtedness
that stands against the property and
upon the banks receipt for this in
debtedness the property will be
decided to the new company and de-
velopment win be started on the
property. The first outlay for the
property was $10,344 and subse-
quently an expense of $397.f5 has
been incurred, leaving the property
in condition less involved than
many that are being worked or
that have become productive mines.
The notices sent to stockholders
Of the old company merely are to
notify them that this opportunity
is afforded them to participate In
the new developments on the prop
erty, which, according to the ex-
aiming engineers. are little short
Of sensational In this line the
statement of the new company
says:
with a view to affording a rea-
sonable time within which to close
the transaction and establish the
fiscal status Of the new company
and at the same time to ascertain
as speedily as possible the disposi.

IF YOU WOULD HAVE A
COMFORTABLE CORSET
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

EVERYBODY knows that the uncor-
seted figure Is the most fashion
able figure Of the day. The woman
who dares has already appeared at
public functions without the restraint
Of steel and bone. The woman who
can thus mock at the coDtrivance OF
science is indeed fortunate Long may
she glory In her possession!
Comparatively few mondaines are so
blessed. and the great majority must
therefore turn to that blessed substi-
tute, the corset, which will most nearly
reproduce the human figure and lend
the effect OF the uncorseted figure. The
material that has proved itself most
available for this purpose is tricot
sort OF knitted cotton. When this ma
terinl was first used for corsets the
stays were very expensive. Today they
are within the reach OF most purses.

This tricot is a remarkably firm fab
rio. yet possessing sufficient elasticity
TO give with every bend OF the body.
That II is comfortable goes without
further explanation.
There are various styles of these
corsets-some have the low busts 9TH

uncorseted effect II Is best TO adopt
the low bust corset and TO wear with

waist the flesh Is firmly restrained as
far as the knees. IL so desired. One OF
the newest models this year has the
extension OF the tricot to the knees.
No danger with this corset of showing
any break In the line OF the corset at
the bottom. which often ruins the eff
feet of a snug fitting dress. As this
material clings snugly to the figure
there Is none OF the tightly corseted
feeling often so uncomfortable in the
long stays which have been the joke of
the papers.
The comfort OF these tricot corsets is
further accumulated by the fact that
they have practically no bones. One OF
the most popular models has only

Inadequate to the needs of the stout

successfully worn In all sizes.
For those who cannot rely upon ma
ture TO carry out the Partisan verdict
OF no corsets the tricot AFFAIR can be

WHAT YOU CAN Do WITH
SOUR CREAM
Yellow Cake With Sour Cream.

Yellow Cake With Sour Cream.
FOR a cake with sour cream sift a
teaspoonful OF soda several times
with three cupfuls or one pint and a
half of pastry -four Cream half cup
full of butter and sugar and yolks OF
four eggs and after mixing them to a
smooth paste stir in one cupful and a
quarter of sour cream. loppered. but
not stale. Gradually stir this mixture
into the sifted -four and soda, then fold
in the whites OF the eggs beaten till
stiff. Bake in a round tube pan
Philadelphia Cream Cheese.
Where one has a large quantity OF
sour cream on hand the best and most
economical use OF IL is In the making
of Philadelphia cream cheese. Have
ready a perfectly clean and strongly
sewed cheesecloth bag and the freshest
of loppered cream. not very rich in
butter. Do not heat 1t over the fire or
add hot water to It, as when making
ordinary cottage cheese. This would
melt all the butter in It After put
ting the cream in abe cheesecloth bag
rub the outside of the bag with salt
Let 1t hang in cool, dry cellar for two
or three days or until every drop of
the whey has been drained on and the
contents of the bag feel firm to the
touch. Remove the cheese and serve
it as 1t is or beat 1t until light with a
fork. Add a little more salt II neces-
sary and some sweet cream II desired
This cheese is superior to the average
commercial variety and just as good
as the very best
Salad Dressing With Sour Cream.
Not all salad makers like sour cream
in their salad dressing. but those who
do will wish to put the following recipe
in their culinary scrap books: Have
ready half a cupful of thick sour
cream, rich and newly loppered. three
tablespoonfuls of vinegar. big pinch
OF salt, sugar and pepper. Beat the
cream until II is as light az possible
with a wire egg whip or a fork. The
motion of the rotary beaten Il not so
good for this purpose Gradually add
the vinegar, sugar and seasoning.
Serve very cold. Be sure to use plenty
of salt and pepper.
Ginger Cookies With Sour Cream.
This is the well tested recipe OF a fne
cook: Have ready one egg. one cupfui
OF sugar (either brown OF white), one
cupfuI OF shortening. one cupful of
molasses. one cupful OF thick sour
cream. two heaping teaspoonfuls Of
soda, one level teaspoonful OF salt and
one heaping teaspoonful each of ginger

loin and short cut porterhouse steaks
are best. although the pin steak is
preferred by many. Round steak Is
almost invariably tough. Little veins
of fat should run through the meat and
beef intended for steak or roast. When
possible the meat should be kept for a
week or ten days well protected from
the air.
A smooth. thin rind, firm to the touch
and light in color, marks good pork.
Bacon should be light and firm and
not too fat. and a pink or rosy streak
