FOR MOTHERS AND FATHERS.

Mothers, fathers, teach your chill

to it, From, their early years instil
int othem how important it is that
they should learn patience and
thoroughness. Teach them to be
thorough at their games, at their
home lessons and above all let them
learn that to succeed in anything
they must first plod patiently through
drugery Those who want to skip
drugery and leap at once into doing
checked in early life. The worker
in real life who has won a good po-
sition has generally done so by first
passing through a lot of irksome
tasks. Teach your children when
they are young, the Importance OF
doing little things we'll, and tell them
that in time this will lead them TO
accomplish big things. Children, as
a rule, are impatient and do not like
drugery. But If they are taught that
Insignificant things we'll done may

s2,40O TUNGSTEN ORE
A TWo-FooT VEIN FOUND IN
ARGENTINE DISTRICT.
Georgetown Practically Deserted Az
Men Hasten to Secti,n Where
Rich Find Was Made.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Georgetown, Colo.--The discovery of
two-foot vein of tungsten in the East
Argentine district has caused a STAN.
pede of prospectors TO that section,
and Georgetown today is practically
deserted of male residents. Every
able-bodied man who follows mining
has gone to the new fields and the
greatest of excitement prevails among
NIL classes of citizens.
The new mineral find was made
by John P. Bowen and Charles Davis,
pioneer prospectors of the Upper Clear
Creek district, and assays made upon
samples taken from clear across the
two-foot vein show values of s2,400 a
ton.
The discovery proved great sur
prise to the owners of the property,
who have been trenching a vein in
an endeavor to locate the source of
rich silver float that can be found
at random
About month ago they uncovered
"hat Ndo DciicNcu W Dt tHt LlUlutT
lode of the mountain, a small streak
of silver glance being encountered that
returned assays varying from 500 to
5000 ounces silver ton.
Alongside of the glance appeared
two feet of fine.grained mineral
which greatly resembled gray copper
as 1t appears in number of mines
directly tributary to Georgetown.
Being unable to determine the
metallic contents, and feeling sure
that high gold and silver contents
were contained, they sent a sample to
Denver to be tested.
The report received proved a rev.
elation and the facts soon gained cir
culation. with the result that an influx
OF prospectors has invaded the East
Argentine.
Every burro and horse in George.
town and Silver Plume that could be
hired has been pressed into service.
Ore haulers from the Imperial and
Santiago mines are reaping a harvest
by taking in supplies on their upgolng
trips.
