The Little Eskimo.

The Eskimo child is the idol of the
home. and is allowed to do absolute
ly as he pleases, He is never pun
ished, says a writer in the March Wide
World Magazine, and his whims AMI
wishes are consulted with all the con-
Germ given an adult In spite of this
indulgence the children are remark
ably obedient. Perhaps the patri-
archal manner of living-father and
mother. aunts and uncles, and grand
mother and grandfather in one house
tends to make them so. The word
of the old folks is law, and is never
questioned. They have lived long
time, the Eskimos reason, and there
fore speak with the authority of eA-
perience. All this is very nice in the
ordinary walks of life, but rather en-
barrassing sometimes in school work

Most of the things That are eusto-

for their origin, though we are not apt

that origin WAS. The water in a

mouth, Did you ever stop 10 think
WHY lions head should BE- chosen in
preference to any other design
This is said to be the reason;
Among the ancient Egyptians the eis-
ing of the waters of the River Nile
was the most important event OF the
year, as it meant life and prosperity
to the whole nation.
This rising of the waters always
took place when the sun was in the
constellation of Leo, or the lion. So
they adopted the shape OF lion as
the symbol for the lfe-giving waters
of the Nile and oil their fountains
were carved with lions head. The

CHINO is EARNING
AT GENEROUS RATE

In discussing the splendid copper pro
duction OF the Chino company DURING
August the Boston Financial News say:
In part
Allowing the August figures 10 hold
good for twelve months and a cost
OF I15 cents per pound. as against
the actual cost OF 1853 cents reported
for the 1912 year. earnings OF 81 per
share are shown on the present price
OF copper. Twelve months produc-
ton at the rate OF 100000 pounds
per month is equivalent TO I2,000, 900
pounds per annum. on which produc-
ton, with 73-cent cost and l6i-cent
copper. earnings would run at the
rate of better than $4,000, 000. or about
81 per share on $4,000 shares. allow
ing all bonds converted
1t IS not expected, however. that
Chino will equal the August figures
month in and month out. but these
figures would surely give evidence
that Chino is capable OF maintaining
a $4,000 600 pound production per an
mum. On this basis, and allowing the
1912 cost TO be edualed. the follow
ing earnings on different prices OF
copper metal are indica tied

STOCK OF COPPER
BEING DECREASED
August Statistics Show Local
Supplies Lessened by Fif-
teen Million Pounds.

The report OF the American Copper
Producers association for the month OF
August which was released Monday In
New York was as favorable from the
producers standpoint as had been pre-
dicted generally, the domestic visible
stocks OF the metal having been reduced
by 1880. sos pounds during the month
This brings the domestic stocks on Sep
tember | To the record low point of 3S,-
313,0S7 pounds, and affords about the
most convincing argument for i7-cent or
higher copper within the next few days
Production in August was smaller than
that in July, domestic deliveries were
materially larger, while exports were
smaller. The August production was 1871
632,362 pounds: domestic deliveries 49, :
649.S0l pounds, exports, IS 913, 469
pounds. giving total deliveries OF 49,
al3,270 pounds, an increase OF 9,b29, ,0OI
pounds as compared with July.
On September |. the European visible
copper supplies measured only 1928, 200
pounds. which brings on that date the
worlds visible supply to 114.696, 237
pounds. which is 32.S17,053 pounds less
than the August total deliveries.
The following figures. In pounds. show
the production. domestic delivcrles, and
exports for the first eight months OF 1913,
and for all of 1872:
