Do You Want TO Live
One Hundred Years?

A long or short life depends
upon the use or abuse of the body
There is not much doubt that a
hundred years is the normal length
of life if there is normal care taken
of it from childhood. The Crea-
tor did a good job; the trouble is
the people commit slow suicide.
The stomach is the storm center of
the body, All other organs SYM
pathize with it in its every -day
misery. The command to work
six days and rest the seventh day
man does not apply to his stomach.
The poor thing has to be loaded
up three times day and on Sun
days it has an extra task. Eat and
sleep is the order on Sunday just
like the hogs.
1t is said that it is better to
wear out than to rust out. His
tory does not record single case
where the human stomach rusted
out: it works days and nights I'M
til the lining gets full of holes, and
then the sexton is called to dig a
hole in the ground.
Indigestion is another name for
too much digestion. As long as
eatables and turntables taste good
when they are sliding down the
gullet the stomach has to be a
chattel slave, and when disease
comes then every other part of the
body suffers.
When a drunkard fills up on
booze" the brain wants to sleep
to give the stomach time to wres-
tie with its load.
When the gluten gives his
stomach Belshazzar load, then
the heart forgets to pump and the
handwriting appears on the wall.
Methuseleh. we are are told,
lived 969 years. The truth is he
lived 969 months which made him
Sc years and 9 months old when
he died. Away back in the ages
some smart Jake, to make sensa-
ton changed months into years,
SO 1t has come down through ira
dltion, which is always more or
less untruthful. A human heart
never pumped blood nearly 1000
years. Human lungs never have
pumped air nearly that length of
time. People become deaf, dumb,
blind and imbecile before they get
much beyond 125 years old. The
much-wanted pie 4sures of old age
are mythical. An extravaganza
idea will travel half way around
the earth while plain truth is get
ting its boots on.

nugget which proves that the sands OF
the Rita Blanca canyon, which runs
through Dallam county near Daihart
contains the precious metal.
A short time ago r. NJ. Cody had
some gravel hauled from the canyon
for his chickens. and recently, after
killing a chicken. he discovered mug
get OF gold in the giZzard about the
size Of a pea. II was examined by J..
G. Stedman. a jeweler. and pronounced
"floater" and pure gold. lie also
identified the gravel as gold bearing.
Gold was washed from the sands OF
the canyon about a year ago. a few
miles further up. but was not found
in paying quantities at that place
Mr.. Cody is an authority on mining,
having served forty years at the gold
mining business. and he is the most
enthusiastic over the find For eleven

Phoenfx. Ariz. April 5.-Suielter
charges and penalties have taken

the former figures. As the smelters

Risk Too Great.
tt is given out at the smelters mat
too great a risk Is involved in paving
the previous high prices FOR copper
ore as the price of copper is alb
time. It is also claimed that the
capital Of the smelters has been tied
un too extensively. On the other
hand il is pointed out by mining men
that the smelters have contracted. or
can contract. for the sale Of their cop
per at high prices months ahead.
Heretofore il is claimed. the smell
ters have paid the market quotation
for copper less Il cents. They make
the same deduction under the new
schedule and also deduct one-quarter
OF a cent for each cent over Il cents.
When copper is selling at 26 cents
pound, the shipper received 20 Il
cents under this arrangement
In addition there is a minimum de-
duction Of % pounds OF copper TO the
ton Of ore carrying 10 per cent or less
OF the red metal This reduction was
formerly 10 per cent Of the copper con-
tent with a -pounds-a ton minimum.
The minimum for treating a ton of ore
has been jumped from $3.50 TO s.. The
deduction for moisture is raised, but
the penalties for refractory contents
remain the same.

CLAIMS "HIGH GRADERS"
TOOK $4,000 In TUNGSTEN

Tucson. Ariz.. April Five tons Of
tungsten ore. worth $4,000, was at
tached by sheriff A. W Forbes when
il was identified by Harold Whitcomb
as having come from the property Of
the International Tungsten company,
al Las Guijas. Whitcomb Identified the
ore by means of a long. dark vol
frantic crystal. which he says is found
only at Las Guijas As manager of
the company he claimed that the VOL
frantic had been removed from the
property by Mexican high graders"
among his miners.
County attorney George o. Hilzinger
and three deputy sheriffs went to Las
Guijas but were unable to obtain
proof that any particular persons had
stolen the ore under attachment
When the ore was seized it was at
the testing plant of Boykin & Co..
who claim that they bought part Of
it from responsible persons and that
the remainder was being reduced on
shares. A legal battle for its pos
session is expected
