The Nome daily nugget. (Nome, Alaska) 1906-1918, 1916-04-13

According to the idea of the
gullible public, you break down
your ore in the mine and mix II
with oil and acid and the trick
is done. But that is not SO. 1t is
a complicated art. The mill man
wants data about this art, not a
collection of flowery phrases,
merely explaining that fotation
means that minerals are floated.
The mill man wants to know fully
and in detail how f1otation is ap-
piled to individual ores.
Fortunately, some mill men
who have had experience in the
practice of flotation and have no
property interests that might be
endangered by law suits are now
BEGINNING to take up their pens,
and the literature of the subject
is at last growing in a useful and
authoritative way. There is no
doubt that henceforth it will in
crease rapidly.
After all ,hotation 81 not such a
mysterious subject as many pre-
tend. 1t is simply a species of
mechanical concentration. AS
compared with ordinary processes
it is what was characterized in the
Journal of 1907, in describing flo-

The sensation of the day in
mining and netallurgy Isl the
phenomenal success of the hota-
ton process. Introduced as an
adjunct to the older methods of
milling, the percentage of extrac-
ton of valuable minerals from ore
has been raised in a remarkable
way and many ores that previous
ly could not be exploited at all
have now been rendered CONNER
cial.
Owing to the bane of a deadly
litigation over the f1otation pro-
cess, the mouths Of the mill men
practicing the new art have in the
main been closed. One result OF
this has been that the press has
been full of sensational and mis-
leading statements about f1otation
statements which could not be
authoritatively corrected. The
woods are full of so-called mill
experts whose sole equipment is
can of oil and a stirring device.
Not long ago mine in the Rocky
mountains, which previously had
failed to command any attention,
was sold on the strength of flota
ton experiments that required
one hour to make.

Even a single detail in ones clothing
may have far-reaching developmental
consequences, either by affecting the mind
directly, or by affecting it through affect
ing the bodily condition. In New York
City there used to be-perhaps there still
is-a refuge maintained by philanthro-
pists for the redemption Of tramps, drunk
ards, and other human derelicts. Re-
ligious influences were brought to bear on
these; but also the attempt was made to
give them moral stamina by exceedingly
practical measures. Among these meas
ures was the hiring of cobbler to put
good heels on the shoes of the unfortunates
who came to the institution.
The theory was that if their heels were
mended they would stand straighter
physically than they had done before,
and that with the improvement in posture
brought about by this simple device there
would be gain in moral strength. The
actual results indicated this theory. The

Borrows Sunday Suit

TT took the over-confdent young man
nearly month to get back his too hastily
resigned place in the restaurant. Mean
time, if hungry and homeless, he used his
eyes and ears and his mind to good ad-
vantage. Accordingly, when the cab
driver little later informed him again
that man was wanted at the hotel where
he had already applied vainly, he did not
rashly resign the place he held. Instead,
he asked for night off, and hunted up
IN acquaintance, man of about his own
build, but more prosperous.
Jack" he said, Il want you to lend
me your Sunday clothes, walking-stick
and ALL
Next morning, after good nights
sleep, well shaved, and dressed better than
he had ever been before, he called once
more on the hotel manager. The latter,
needless to say, did not recognize him.

Clothes Affect the Man

HERE are two instances of the truth
that a mans career is influenced for
good or for evil by the kind of clothes he
wears and the way he wears them. Nor
is it only because others are prone to
judge us from external appearances that
the question of clothes is Of great impor-
lance. OF even greater significance is the
fact that clothes directly and indirectly
affect the character of their wearer; so
that man can actually increase or de-
crease his mental and moral powers by
the way he dresses.
Some day-may it be in the not distant
future-a new profession will be estab-
lished, the profession of scientific re-
pairer of damaged characters. This sci
entific character-builder will be sure to
have good deal to say on the subject of
clothes to those who apply to him for ad-
vice. Suppose the unsuccessful salesman
of our second instance, realizing that
something was wrong with him, sought
the character-builders aid, this is about
what he would be told:
at will, of course, take time to find out
exactly what you lack. We shall have to
inquire into your heredity, early history,
personal habits, general outlook on life,
and the state of your physical health
But there is one thing can tell you Off
hand. If you wish to make more of your
self, it will be wise for you to dress better
than you now do.
@You quite evidently, like good many
other men, are not over-particular as to
the fit and general appearance of your
clothes. Baggy trousers, and loose, ill
fitting, somewhat dusty coat suggest un-
mistakably that your habits of thought
as well as your habits of dress are a trife
disorderly and slovenly. 1t is safe wager
that inaccuracy and inattention to detail
are characteristic of you. This Is fatal
to business success. Make it a practice
to give some thought to the details Of your

@Be careful not to go to the opposite ex-
treme Of wearing clothes that fit too well.

TIGHT coats and waistcoats interfere
with breathing; tight trousers actunfa-

muscular and nervous strain, make one dis

He had not long to wait. At his en-
trance the dry-goods merchant had looked
up with cordial smile Of greeting and the
remark:
aGlad to see you, Mr.. Woods. I'll be
ready for you in moment
He was as good as his word, despite the
almost pathetic efforts of the first sales
man to hold his attention.
NO." the merchant told him; Il don't
care to order anything this morning. I'm
sorry; but I'm pretty well stocked up. .
AS the disappointed salesman left the
store, the merchant gazed after his re-
treating form, and, as he gazed, frowned
slightly. Then he turned to the man from
Maine.
"Do you know that fellow" he in
quired.
II can't exactly say that l know him.
I've run across him on the road a few
times"
"Well," the merchant frown deepened,
@he's not bad sort. If only he'd wear
decent clothes, keep them brushed, and
change his linen oftener, think he'd do
some real business"

Neat But Not Gaudy"

INTO the office of banker there walked
one morning a man who had an impor-
tant business proposal to make. twas
project of such Importance that he wished
to discuss it in detail. And it was prof.
ect in which he could reasonably expect
the banker to be interested. But after he
had talked few minutes, the banker
began drumming nervously on his desk.
He was no longer listening to his callers
story. His attention was held by the
callers conspicuously patterned suit, and
flaming red necktie with obtrusive stick
pin.
Presently the telephone rang. 1t was
to announce another caller.
4I'm sorry, Mr.. Roe" said the banker,
looking up at the first caller, 4but a gen.
tleman is here whose business requires
my immediate attention. l must ask you
to excuse me"
The two callers. passed each other at
the door Of the Office Said the banker to
the newcomer:
Il never was so glad to see you, John.
/ was wondering how in the world to get
rid of him. Couldn't you feel his clothes?"

This. say, happened in Boston good
many years ago. AS time passed, the
young man prospered until, long before
his death, he was the owner of several big
hotels. One Of these was the very hotel
where he had begun work as glass
washer. You may be sure he never forgot
that he owed his start in the hotel bust
ness to the wearing Of good-if borrowed
suit of clothes.
And, as an episode from real life of
directly contrasting sort, glance ct this:

to it that they are. For of surety it
will pay you to be well dressed.

mans success. He must
have had some striking
personal qualities before
he went to the accom-
modating tailor. But the
point is that the clothes
he wore, besides pre-
possessing other people
in his favor, did play a
decisive part in bring
ing out these qualities.
As q shabbily dressed
man he would not only
have been less success
full: he would have been

readiness to respond to
good advice. They found
it easier to assert their

more like real men than
they had been when they

Germs young man from a Western
State who came to Harvard University
as a postgraduate student.
1t was necessary for him to do outside
work, and to be as economical as possible.
As one means to this end he hit on the in
genious scheme of persuading tailor to
make him clothes at a nominal price, in
consideration Of his promising to recon-
mend the tailor to fellow students
As may be imagined, the tailor saw to
it that this clever young man was well
dressed. The result was that, as far as
externals went, the tailor worked verita-

from an uncouth, acknowledging youth

His Costumes Change His Customs
THIS young man had been rather abrupt
and self-centered in his manner. Now
he became noticeably courteous and con-
siderate of others. He made it his custom
to use the choicest of language, whereas
before he had been careless in this impor-
tant respect. In other ways his PERSONAL
ity expanded and grew more attractive.
Students who before had not given him
moments thought, began to cultivate his
acquaintance. He was spoken Of fatter-
ingly by members of the faculty. And,
before his first year at Harvard ended, he
had been appointed to secretaryship in
one of the college departments.
