No Free Assays Made by GeoIog-
 icai Survey.

Attention is again called by the United States Geological Survey at Washington to the fact that it does not make analyses OF assays of ores, minerals. OF metals for private parties. Many specimens and samples are received by the Survey, accompanied by requests for such treatment, with which it is impossible to comply. The force of chemists employed in the Survey is small. and their time is fully occupied by their regular of ficial duties. .sThe Geological Sur vey has no facilities for making gold and silver assays. The most that can be done is for the Sur vey geolOgists to give an otf-hand opinion based on simple. eXam- ination of the specimen. If an assay is desired, the proper course is to employ a private as saver or to send the specimen to one of the government assay of fees, where regular charge is made for such work. When spec linens are sent to the Survey for examination, applicants should be particular to state whether they wish them returned. as otherwise they will be destroyed. Govern ment assay offices are located at Carson, Nev.: Seattle. Wash.: Boise, Idaho: Helena. Mont.: Salt Lake City, Utah, and Charlotte, N. C.

LAWS. (By George Fitch ]


 Laws are rules made by gov rrnments and sometimes obeyed by citizens.
 A law consists of several thou sand expensive and complicated words embroidered around loop- holes. When an ignorant citizen attempts to road law, he chokes To nthe first sentence, but wise man can dive right through a loophole without so much as at tracing the attention of the stat ute surrounding it.
 Laws are the most fragile things in the world. They are more fragile than glass. A mere touch will break a glass, but a man can break some laws with out doing anything at all. Many a man has sat perfectly still while his store has burned up and has |gone to jail for it.
 When a man breaks a law he is not allowed to pu, it together again. He must pay fine or go to jail or hire lawyer. Most pe"- pie prefer the latter course. If a man is careful 60 hire an expert lawyer, he can wade through trH acres of chinaWarn and escape ali punishment except getting his picture in the papers.
 There are several thousand laws in each state, sc that no one who desires to fracture a statute need suffer because of a shortage in the supply. The average man breaks a dozen laws a day and smashes enough in a year to use up all his salary and all of his time in fines and imprisonments But he doesn't know it. Many laws are entirely unsupported by i the public. This is because of poor advertising. Some laws which were passed fifty years ago, 'haven't done enough business in that time to pay expenses.
 In some states man breaks the law when he kisses his wife on Sunday. This is because there is no Osler limit on law. It lives forever unless killed with an axe
 Everyone breaks little laws but if a man gives his careful atten- ttion to the art, he can break big ger and bigger laws until he may eventually be fined S29,000,Q0( with perfect safety to himself.
 A law is supposed to be great iprotection to society, but it is SC much harder to work than a re- volver that many people choose the latter. To start a law work ing, one must use a states at torney, an honest jury, judge with brains, and a supreme court which isn't suffering from techni- calities. Many men who can start an automobile in the dead of win ter and run it with one hand, have tried to crank up the law which makes it expensive for railroad tu cut ulf legs and arms. and has fooled with the thing until he died Of old age without. getting a sin gle explosion.
