CORDOVA COPPER
MINES CAUSE
A FURRY

In a recent issue Of the New York
Market Review is found the following
interesting information as to mines
tributary to Cordova:
Kennecott Copper took the lead this
week among the Curb securities. In
the first two days of the week the
stock advanced 10 points, closing
strong on Tuesday night at SAT share
The cause of the sudden and strong
advance was the opening up of the
most remarkable body of copper ore
known to the mining world. Tele-
graphic advices from the company's
engineers in Alaska state that in cross
cutting in the lower levels 80 feet of
ore, carrying an average of 70 per cent
copper, have been opened up.
Before this discovery the Kenne-
colt Copper mine had been looked
upon as the world wonder of mining
and the directors of the company had
been proceeding with the development
of the property upon purely manu-
featuring basis. While the copper
metal market was at its highest there
was a steady and sustained upswing
in Kennecot Copper. There was no
inclination to push the price of the
security at time when it could have
been done with very little effort. The
preferred to let the market
take care of itself on the showing of
the property. The report of the new
acted like match to sky
rocket.
Without considering the new find of
the company, it is esti-
mated, will produce nearly 100000
pounds of copper in the current quart
er. At treatment cost of cents a
pound and with 18-cent copper, this
would be a production amounting to
100000 annually, equal to nearly
1922 a share on the 100000 share out
standing. With such a showing it is
easy to figure out what the future
holds for the Kennecott Copper COM
pany and its stockholders. Report
has it that the stock will soon be on a
divided basis and will be listed on the
New York Stock Exchange.
1t is our opinion that the present ad-
vance will continue to at least $50
share.
Mother Lode, after nearly a fort
night of inaction, took on a new lease
of life this week and advanced to 80
cents. 1t loks as if this stock were
being handed over the bargain coun.
ter at this price. The mine is most
advantageously located with regard
to Kennecott, but it's location has its
drawbacks with regard to market for
it's output. The mine is the next door
neighbor Of the wonder copper mine Of
the world and has a splendid showing.
The unfortunate part of it's problem
is that the ore can be hauled out only
in the winter months when sleds are
used. 4G
The engineers of Kennecott Copper
who have just reported SO favorably
on the new showings of the Alaskan
wonder mine, were sent north to ex-
anime Mother Lode, the understand
ing being that Kennecott had an op-
ton of purchase on its neighbor at
60 cents share. 1t was on the re-
port of the engineers that Mother Lode
developed new strength, although the
nature of the report has not been made
known. Kennecott Copper can find
expedient and inexpensive means of
getting the product of Mother Lode
and it looks very favorable for their
taking over the property. Mother
Lode affords a grand speculation at
present prices. .b

WANT TO WRITE A NOVEL?
We'll, Here's Your Plot All Ready For
 the Little Details.

Take one ocean liner plying between San Francisco and the Philippines Add a young man going to Hawaii on business and an heiress and her aunt going nowhere in particular. Mix the two young folk gradually among the other passengers, with an occasional half hour alone away from the watch ful eye of the aunt. Turn the ship into the center of one tropical storm. Mix gradually until they come to a froth, the sea and the bowling of the winds. Beat the vessel slowly against jagged rocks until 1t is well pounded up. Throw in looks of despair to suit the taste. Add one binding flash of light ming "that rent the heavens" to a "convulsive heave of the stout old hull that had braved the southern seas for years"
 Pour a wave mountain high on the ship, mixing the passengers briskly together; then turn the entire mass suddenly into the sea. Put the young mans arm providentially against floating spar, chicken coop or door torn off a stateroom. Have another convenient wave sweep the maid in his direction. Put in a ''strong young arm" Add "then all grew black"
 Drop in a sandy beach unexpectedly Put the hero on the beach. Have him "come to" with the sun shining bright or brightly. Close by put the maid' la the daughter of the skipper Of the schooner Hesperus, minus the salt sea being frozen on her breast.
 Inject into the situation at this point one handy cave, with another ditto near by. Add signals daily to passing ships After baking thoroughly Tor six months on the island put in a res cue after hope had been abandoned trip to the good old U. S. A. and one church close to the corner. Mix in sufficient detail to suit, place in an at tractive cover and serve to the public at $1.35 per serve.-Indianapolis News.

 ne barrier that ex1sreu Derween rnern. The parting was very sad. both declar- ing that there was no use trying to forget each other They must simply endure their mutual. misfortune.
 Six months after his departure Jack found himself in Tokyo. It was not his wish to be there. He could not help himself since his ship went there. He did not avail himself of permission to go ashore for some time after his arrival, but finally was ordered ashore on some duty. The first man he met was the broker who had made the match for him with Apple Blossom.
 "Ah, MT. Haversham" exclaimed the man. How you like to marry again? find you fine wife"
 "Marry! You son of Satan, I'm mar ried already. You know that as we'll as l."
 You marry for six months. That marriage has expired" "Whatt'
 You no know our laws in Japan. We have law that man marries woman for some time. He pay, the money to go to the wife's father and mother. That all right in this country. Do you suppose I marry sailor for ever?"
 Great Scott!'
 "I marry Apple Blossom again-twice since I marry her to you" Say 1t again, you heathen" cried Jack, gripping the man on each shoul- der and shaking him till his teeth rat, tied.
 "I say it hundred times. show you the contract -
 "Show it-right offr' An investigation ensued, which con vinced Jack that he had made limit ed marriage recognized by the laws of Japan and considered there perfectly honorable to both parties. He secured papers to show that Ge could be mar ried again in his native country with out committing bigamy.
 "Well, you satisfedf" asked the broker.
 "Yes; I am mighty well satisfied"
 "Then get you another wife"
 No, you won't" "0ur law very fine law for sailor. man." said the broker urgently.
 "I dare say it is. It has proved the best kind for me, but l have no fur ther use for it.
 You like 10 see Apple RloSsom?"
 No. Why would want 10 see herr" Apple Blossom not married now. ] make a new marriage for you with her cheap"
 Jack took the little man by the collar and the seat of the brooches and threw him up into a cherry tree, where he clung to the branches while his client walked away. On his way home Jack took very good care of himself, declining 10 go ashore lest he fall under the spell of some fair damsel, for, though his heart was really true to Maggie, he knew that it was not wise to expose himself to temptation.
 When he and his regular sweetheart met he took her to his arms, she re- sisting till he assured her that he was free to marry her. After more trans ports he explained the Japanese law by which he had been married.
 That's a very good law" she said. flor sailors"
 Nevertheless Maggie would not con- sent to marry Jack Haversham till she had made inquiries and learned that there is in Japan such marriage law as he had been married under without knowing it. Then she consented. but only when Jack had promised to leave seafaring life and remain at home, where she might watch him.

THE GIRL GRADUATE
 AND HEIR CAREER.

It would be interesting to know, when one attends the mmencement ,exerc rcises of a college for women, how many of these fair and gifted A. B. s lead the simple life. In many eases, their future is amply provided for The family feel they need the daugh- ter's presence. Yet most of the girls seem fo think some active and bread winning career is inevitable
 The next thing often seems an anti climax After studying the literature philosophy, and art of the ages, the learned graduate may settle down. to the routine employment of operating a typewriter It\is useful work. It may be quite as remun nerative as the overcrowded brofession of school teaching. But four years Of classic literature scarcely seem necessary in preparation therefor.
 The modern educated girl does not seem happy to settle down at home, particularly if she comes from small town or country village where society is simply organized and 'slys edu- cafed people, not nu11e3 There by the atmosphere Of gP lth and brightness is frequently removed from the home of the old folks But it is a normal enough instinct that women should take their p1a ce | in the working and producing world. IdHng around home, trying to fill up the days with little touches of art and music added to the family seems no life work to a great many ambf- .ttous young women.
 The feeling is Sometimes express ed, when educated girls go to work, that they take. employment away from men, so that nothing is added to the WorId,s work et%no man worth anything loses by competition If he loses his job as salesman or Ibookkeeper, let him qui trying to l earn his living at clean handed jobs, and go out and dig in the fields If he puts his brains as well as his muscle into it. one more efficient producer Is added to- the world, as the result of the woman's entering business life.

so poorly that my folks thought was going into consumption. One day I found piece of paper blowing around the yard and I picked it up and read it. It said Saved from the Crave and told what Lydia E. Pinkham' s Vegeta- ble Compound has done for women. I showed it to my husband and he said, Why don't you try it?' So did, and after I had taken two bottles I felt better and said to my husband, T don't need any more,' and he said You had better take it a little longer anyway So took-it for three months and got well and strong. - Mrs. ALoNzo E.

 Not Well Enough to Work.
 In these words is hidden the tragedy of many woman, housek eeper or wage earner who supports herself and is often helping to support family, on meagre wages. Whether in house, office, fac tory, shop, store or kitchen, woman should remember that there is one tried and true remedy for the ills to owhich all women are prone, and that is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It promotes that vigor which makes work easy. The Lydia B. Pinkham Medicine Co.,, Lynn, Mass.
