German Teeth.

Germany tells the world that good
teeth are of great value-a clean
tooth does not decay. Good care is
worth while. Professor Potter of Har-
ward university says:
The teeth of the English soldiers
in the trenches are in poorer condi-
ton than the men of any other pow
er. The French rank much higher as
regards mouth hygiene efficiency,
with the German heading the list, al
NEST 100 per cent perfect.
The German soldier Is faring the
best of any as regards his teeth For
more than fifteen years Germany
has been caring for the teeth of its
subjects, establishing clinics in the
public schools dental infirmaries in
the smaller towns and villages as we'll
as in the cities, and on the whole
making sure that no child, especially
boy, is allowed to let his teeth get
into that state of decay which would
necessarily cause his rejection at the
time of call to his colors."

TELLS HOW TO LIVE CENTURY
Just Don't Think You're Going 10
Grow Old" Says j. o. Acker-
man, of ACkley.

Ackley, Ia, Feb. 21.-"Don't
ever think you are going TO grow
old" is the recipe j. o. Alderman,
Butler county pioneer, gives to those
who wish to live to be 100. Mr.. Ac-
herman celebrated his Tooth birth
day anniversary al his home near
Parkersburg last Thursday.
Mr.. Alderman has smoked to-
bacco for eighty years, he confesses
he has drunk a wee drop occasionally
and he says he has always eaten
what he wanted and whenever he
wanted it. He doesn't think any Of
these habits hurt him.
He is still healthy and strong and
walks without the aid Of cane. His
sight and hearing are nearly as good
as ever and he retains a keen inter
est in the worlds affairs.
The centenarian was never sick
day in his life but he suffered an
accident once that physicians said
would prove fatal. A horse stumbled
upon him, crushing three of his ribs
into his lungs.
"He can't live" said the doctors.
But he fooled them and in short
time was as spry as ever. And the
accident occurred il what are usually
considered the later years of mans
life.
Mr.. Alderman was born in Ger
many in 1916. He came to America
in 1851 coming to Butler county in
1869.
Forty-fye of his relatives, friends
and neighbors celebrated his ami
versary at the home of his daughter
Mrs. j. ID. Oelman. His daughter
now a grandmother, prepared q
birthday cake for the occasion.
He has four children, seventeen
grandchildren and fourteen great
grandchildren.

Banks Using Newspaper Space.

Any person who scans the columns
of the newspapers will notice partic-
ularly t.. liberal space the banks are
using to attract savings depositors
and to encourage the virtue of thrift
in general. Never before has so much
of this been done in the United
States. Indeed banks seemed to avoid
advertising formerly, as not compos-
ing with the dignity of their business
years, this has been entirely
changed, and the change is for
the better, both of the banks
and of the people. Especially is pub
lc attention now invited to the advan,
tages of and the facilities for saving
This is so manifestly important that
the American Bankers association
has inaugurated countrywide cam
paign this year for the promotion o.
savings, and is inviting the co-opera
ton of all bankers, business men
school authorities and the public gen
orally in making the campaign as in
fiuential and far-reaching as posi-

AUCTION SALE ADS
REASONS WHY PUBLIC OPIN
IONS PLAN OF HANDLING AUC-
TION SALES OUGHT TO BE
FAVORED BY ALL WHO
CONTEMPLATE HAVING
A SALE IN THIS
SECTION.
Will Give Your Sale the Widest Pub
Iicity and All at Small Cost.

First-Because it is demonstrat-
ed success. In the past few years
hundreds of auction sales have been
advertised in the Public Opinion to
the mutual satisfaction of the seller
and buyer Many of those who ad-
vertised their sales in this paper
have said that on few articles they
have realized enough more than they
expected, to pay all the expenses of
the sale. In practically all cases
when results have been compared
with expectations the sales advertiS-
ed III the Public Opinion have ex-
ceeded expecta ions, in some cases
by several hundred dollars.
Second-Becaus people have come
to look to this paper for announce
ments of sales. The success of our
plan of advertising sales has natur-
ally led people to expect that an auc-
ton sale in this section will be ad-
vertised in the Public Opinion, just
as they expect that the rural carrier
will deliver their mail.
Third-Because of it's small ex-
pense. We make a uniform charge
for our service in reaching practically
all the people of this section, that is
but a little above what used to be
charged for sale bills that were read
by only few of the people.
Fourth it puts the seller
lin touch with his best available Gus
toner. The Public Opinion goes into
practically every home in DEBORAH
and the surrounding territory. The
people naturally look to this paper
to learn about auction sales. If a
man in this section of the country
wants for his own purposes any tool
or live stock advertised in any sale,
he knows just where to go to ind II.
He will be prepared to bid what he
believes the article or animal Is
worth, because he has use Tor IL.
There will be no element OF specula-
ton in his bid. With the old plan, the
people in the immediate neighbor-
hood were the only ones who knew OF
the sale, and they would generally
bid because they hoped to buy some
thing cheap.
Fifth-Because the Public oplh-
ion plan reaches all the people Oh
this section while the auction Dill
reaches only few in the Immediate
locality of this sale
Sixth-Because the Public opinion
containing the auction advertising Is
laid away and preserved in the home
while the bill is subject to the winas
as it is tackled on the fences ano
trees.
The Public Opinion method OF ad'
yertising auctions is Endorsed by tht
leading auctioneers.

and engineers believe that the drill is now close to the main ore body. Dis covery of sulphides in Hole No. 1 will be looked upon as practically proving the mine.
 Conditions in Hole No. are likewise most encouraging The hole is being driven through oXydiZed ore that gives the richest promise and it is antici- pated that the sulphides will be en- countered here also at depth
 When MT Rice drilled the Miami Southwestern it was for the Payne Weber people of Boston. His drilling developed an ore body of approximate ly 12000000 tons of ore. The Miami Southwestern and the Inspiration Con solidated Copper companies both ad- join the Inspiration Needles and geo. logical conditions indicate that the ore bodies of both these properties con- tinue into Needles ground.
 George Stoneman. attorney at Phoe- nix and director in the Inspiration Needles. was sent word today that Mr. Rice had been engaged and replied with an expression of satisfaction over the selection of so able a man for the po- sition. Mir. Stoneman, like every other man connected with the corporation has the highest hopes for the future and believes that another great DOT | phvry producer is about to come into | being.

 AFTER DRILLING.

GLOBE. Oct 2-E. R. Rice, for four years efficiency engineer for the Cop per Queen Copper Co. and the man who drilled the Miami Southwestern for Payne Weber interests has been en- gagged to superintend drilling opera tions at the Inspiration Needles Cop per companys property. This was the announcement made by John s. Cook, secretary of the company. yesterday when he completed negotiations that have been going on for the last two weeks. The company had several men in view for the position but were de- termined to secure a superintendent, without regard to price, who is best equipped for the work in hand. Mir. Rice is considered the man. as his knowledge of the Miami Copper Belt, on which both the Inspiration Needles and Miami Southwestern are situated has been gained at first hand
 MT. Rice is a graduate of the Michi- gan School of Mines and is a member of the American Institute of Mining Engineers. His record shows him to be thoroughly familiar with drilling operations on such a property as the Inspiration Needles and it is antici- pated that under his direction progress on the property will go ahead at a rapid pace.
 When the new superintendent comes here this week to take charge of the property he will bring with him an expert assayer whose knowledge of ores of the character found on the In- spiration Needles has been gained through extensive experience. The assay office at the property has been completed and there is nothing to cause sl luI. .f ment work.
 That sulphides in a large body will be encountered in Hole No. 1 on the | Needles within a very short time is the 1 opinion of mining men who have beer
 watching developments there. Patches of sulphides have already been encoun-
 tered in several places and the drillers

 Hal Prince, of the firm of Herbert s. Prince & Company, will be the local representative for the Miami Consolidated, but Mir Lefkovits and Leo Bigley will remain here for the next few days to assist Mir. Prince. MT. Coak was expected in Phoenix yesterday, but his banking interests in Globe detained him. Instead of visiting Phoenix. he will go direct to New York City. where he will assist Mir.

BUMBLEBEE, Ariz., Oct. With three shifts working in a new chalco- pyrite formation and with several buildings going up, the Jasper N. Nellis property, three miles west of here is beginning to look like the real thing. Large shipments of sup plies have been ordered from Phoe- nix, through Canon station, and with eastern capitalists backing the en- terprise, another producing copper property will be added to the dis trict shortly. Manager Nellis stated today that he exects to cut the main ore body in forty days.
 The property now comprises 25 claims, closely grouped about the central claims, on which work has been and is now being done. Two buildings are being erected in the wide flat on Castle Creek, half a mile from the mouth of the exploratory tunnel, where the workmen are driv- ing for the main ore body, along a | lead that looks better every day. The tunnel has been in chalcopyrite ever since the middle of August, and now copper glance is being uncov- cred
