wax from your druggist and apply II at
night like cold cream, washing it off in
the morning The wax will gently absorb
all the Iteless skin and leave n healthy

To keep the skin free from wrinkles

B|SBEE MINERS
BUY MUCH STOCK
Men Who Work in Mines
Financially Interested
in Many Properties.

Bisbee, AriZ, June 6.-While the
copper producers Of the state are con-
fronting and combating more or less
unrest attendant upon the work Of
agitators in their districts and the
outcome is yet uncertain with regards
to maintenance Of the output of the
metal at the high figure which pa
triotism and the needs Of the govern
ment and its allies dictate the neces-
sity Of, there is no abatement Of
new development work in all of the
districts nor IN the attractiveness
which these extend to investors.
It is a notable fact in this connec-
ton that there is at the present time
more money engaged in the develop
ment Of new properties in Arizona
that has come direct from the pockets
of miners than in any previous period
OF the industry It is safe to say that
tWo-thirds Of the men employed in
operating the mines of producing
mines of Arizona are the possessors
of more or less shares in the proper
ties Of developing concerns
Puts $4,000 in One Company.
These investments run from SIS up
to $4,000 and more The $4,000 figure
is mentioned because Il happens TO
be the amount that one Bisbee miner
drew from his savings and put in
single Jerome company which is now
developing its property. In this same
company other Bisbee miners are said
to have upwards of S150,000. In other
Jerome companies ii is known that
there is more than $3.50. 900 distributed
by Bisbee miners. The latter also
have investments in Globe, Miami,
Ray and Superior developing prop
critics, as well as large investments in
the shares OF several Warren district
properties which are under develop
ment.
Have Nearly Million.
On the whole il is a conservative
guess that they have nearer one mil
lion dollars than half million dollars
invested at the immediate time in
mining development work OF the state
all entirely aside from the invest
ments they are carrying in the prop
critics OF producing companies and
from which they are drawing divi-
dends.
