Eric Flynn, who is employed with
the Foster Construction Co. at Mont
real, arrived here Tuesday from Apple
ton accompanied by his bride.

There is JOY in the hearts of those
who have been anxiously waiting
for an improvement in sleighiug
conditions, for all day yesterday
the snow was falling and the pros
poets are bright for good sleighing.
A good fall of snow will mean that
loggers can commence the work Of
hauling and all other forms OF
woods activities will take on new
life, necessitating the employment
of more men. The unprecedented
mild weather with the lack Of SNOW
has played havoc with the winter
activities usually in full swing at
this time of the year and has caus-
ed no little inconvenience. The ice
men have had their troubles, too.
1t was necessary to haul snow and
make ice roads before the hauling
of the ice could be commenced and
this week few mild days melted
the ice roads and flooded the ice at
Lake I.qvina. Conditions are some
what better now and unless we
have another spell Of mild weather
the work will be continued.

Copper at t-iinkGe

1t is possible that copper mine
may be established within a short
distance of Hurley. J. c. Flanagan
and Thos. Jackson, of Hurley, are
conducting explorations on section
II, township 46, range east, and
enough evidence is said to have al
ready been revealed to substantiate
the continuance of the work. A
shaft of fairly good dimensions is
being sunk and is already down
about 20 feet. Assays made of the
product from this shaft has shown
a good proportion of copper with a
sprinkling OF other valuable metals.
These operators are working under
a lease from the owners OF the
mineral rights, a Michigan con-
cern, and they are confident that a
mine of paying ore will result. 1t
is to be hoped that this is true and
friends of Messers. Flanagan and
Jackson viii watch their efforts
with interest.

Doubtful District Congressman Glad

members Of congress in doubtful dis

ironclad agreement had been reached
among the leaders Of both "wets"
and "drys" that the quetion Of giving
the right Of way to the HObsOn resO-
luton for national prohibition should
not be broached ut tOnight's caucus.
This agreement was the real secret Of
the failure of the matter to come up
In the caucus. A similar understand
ing was reached as to the wOman's
suffrage resolution. which had already
been turned down at a previous Dem
ocratic caucuE this session. The off,
cial call for the caucus was issued by
Acting Caucus Chairman COvington
was 30 framed as to exclude both
propositions.

Their Suffering Ended.

Hundreds Of your neighbors are
ready to tell you just what has made
life new for them and relieved them
Of the tortures Of ill health, if you
will let them. They have used Mrs.
Joe Persons Remedy to purify their
blood and enrich the life-giving fluid
so that all the bodily functions could
work properly. When that was done.
and the organs got a chance to do
their work, Nature cleared up their
troubles. so that they are now we'll.
trouble is laid on the digestion, the
nerves or the skin. Back Of it all Is
the fact that the blood is either not
good enough or is positively poison
ed. OF course you cannot get we'll, di-
gest what you eat or rest in sleep, as
long as what ought to give your
nerves tone and your digestion ener-
gy and strength is poisoned every min
ute Of the day. Get the blood right.
Moses said ut Is the life." When the
blood is right you live.
Here is what one Of your neigh
bors declares: "A few years ago

poison. If the skin would be broken
from any cause the flesh would be-
come inflamed, would itch and burn
