Judging from the size and value
Of it's latest bullion shipment, the
result of the third cleanup at It's
new mill, which was made last
Thursday. the gross production this
month of the Tonopah Belmont De
velopment company will excel by far
all past records of that corporation.
The third consignment Of bullion that
was despatched last Thursday by
the Wells-Fargo & Co. express, to
Selby e. Co, of San Francisco for
refining and the separation OF the
gold and silver content, consisted OF
AZ bars having combined weight
of sO.466 ounces. which figured at
slightly better than rs cents an
ounce. gives the shipment a vaina'
tion in excess OF $61.155. The bul
lion that resulted from the second
cleanup at the new mill amounted
to llS,5fZ OunCcS VI oh "bS'
yalue of about $4,000. and was ship
ned Thursday of last week. The
first cleanup at the new mill wal
made on August 2S and yielded 2
bars Of bullion. -

there is an eighteen inch streak of

Developments during the last week
on the $50 and 125O.foot levels of
the North Star mine resulted in a
noteworthy improvement in the
physical condition of the property.
On the vein cut recently on the
former level drifting and raising is
being vigorously prosecuted on from
2 to 3 feet of ore averaging better
than s25 a ton. The work in the
two workings yielded 40 tons of ore
the early part of this week. the rock

at Millers. A like shipment will be
made in the next day or two.

FOR EVERY FAMILY
MEDICINE CHEST

To the head of every family the
health of its different members is
most important, and the value of an
agreeable laxative that is certain in
its effect is appreciated. One of the
most popular remedies In the family
medicine chest is a combination Of
simple laxative herbs with pepsin that
is known to druggists and physicians
as DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. This
preparation is mild and gentle in its
action on the bowels, yet positive in
its effect. A dose of Syrup Pepsin at
night means relief next morning
while its tonic properties tone up and
strengthen the muscles of stomach,
liver and bowels so that these organs
are able in a short time to again per-
form their natural functions without
help.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in soc and $1.00
bottles. If you have never tried this
simple, inexpensive, yet effective
remedy, write to DIR. W. B. Caldwell,
2O1 Washington st. Monticello, ILL.,,
and ask for a sample bottle. DR.. Cald-
well will be glad to send it without
any expense to you whatever.
