Record: Since the price of quicksilver
mounted up from about $45 a flask of
75 pounds to $50 a flask, as a result
of the war across the seas. +. H. Perry
of Chicago, has been obtaining a rev.
enue of nearlys $4,000 a month from
his mine here. which he took over sew
eral years ago to satisfy debt of 5000.
In fact, when Mr.. Perry came into
possession of this mineral wealth he
had no idea that a fortune was in
store for him. He regarded the 1880
acres of land upon which the present
quicksilver mine is situated as being
practically worthless. He did not even
take the trouble to go and see it.,
knowing the general character of the
region to be barren and Almost unin-
habited.
1t is far down in what is known as
the Big Bend country, 80 miles from a
railroad, and in the heart Of the region
that was formerly the rendezvous Of
bandits. Fate decreed, however, that
fortune should smile upon Mr.. Perry.
The property that he was forced to
take over and which he regarded Of no
value, has already produced more
than 100000 worth of quicksilver.
What the mine is worth no one ven
lures to say. but figuring on its rev.
enue producing basis, it ought to have
value. it is claimed, of not less than

She secured one Of the best street

EQUAL SUFFRAGE

There is national council TO pro.
mote manhood and womanhood sui
frage in Great Britain, and its argu-
mcnts in favor of the movement are
on a high plane.
The argument made is as applicable
in Amcrica--in Michigan even-as in
England. In making its appeal for
manhood suffrage. which the ruling
British aristocracy have never been
willing to grant, the council states

tn, women of the country, or even a
proportion of them, were left with a
burning sense of grievance and indig-
nation at being excluded from the con-
stitutional rights of citizenship in a
country to which they belong by birth,
ard for which they have toiled and
suffered.

yourself, men Of Michigan, who know
that there are no worthier women for
