NJ .niercos Who has been
haul'ug ma. etial into Masonic for
seVes . mining companies, as we'll
as hauing ore from the mines to
the reduction works at llazen, re-
ports that the recent strike at
Masonic has caused considerable
eXcitenaen III that section says
the Carson News. The find was
made by Kibble AMI Cook, who
have been operating lease. The
ore carries high values and steady
shipments have been made dur
ing the past several weeks. Ore
has been sacked IN the mine with
out sorting and while no pubic
announcement has been made as
to the richness of the ore, it is re-
ported that it averages better
than $3.50 per ton.
Since kibble and Cook uncov-
cred the new body Of ore, H. c.
Decker, operating property some
distance from the lease cut the
same ore body. After this sec
ond find had been made, Kibble
and Cook traced the ledge for
mile and a half and located sew
eral claims of their own and de-
velopment work is now under
way.
Mr.. Anderson states that it is
the opinion of those who have
been on the ground and examin-
ed the new find, that Masonic
will be the scene of renewed min
ing activity next spring.
When Masonic was discovered
some twelve or more years ago,
the miners were looking for ore
that resembled that found in the
Bodie section. Such ore bodies
were found but carried extreme
ly low values. The Pittsburg-
Liberty has produced many
thousands of dollars but the ma
Jority of properties worked new
er became producers, However,
with the new find, it again
prove that gold is where you
i'm i and not always in rock

'Ao' localities.

Of water from the underlying tissues,
water not passing through creased
layer. If this protection be removed or
absent the atmosphere, especially if
windy, will speedily extract water and
leave the skin harsh and rough,
according tp common ter
minology. Hence it is important not to
remove too much grease, and this is
done by somewhat sparing hot water
and soap before venturing out of DOORS
In the case of abnormally dry skins it
lis necessary to use either cold cream or
cocoa butter to limited extent.
For those able to react, cold bath
or shower is one Of the best skin, and
general, tonics there is. In addition it
keeps the person clean and does not
lead to chapping. However, many per-
sons do not REACT, and in them a cold
bath is distinctly bad, for depression
rather than exhilaration follows. Soft
water is best, that is water free from
magnesium or calcium carbonate. The
objection to hard water is that it com
bincs with soap to form white pre-
.cipitate, calcium soap. The easiest
way to render water soft is by boiling
it, for by this procedure free carbonic
acid gas is driven off. .~s
The addition of salt to baths is of no
value. Borax and baking soda are al
kalies, and will dissolve out some Of
the keratin, hence are not to be recon-
mended. Mud baths are of no value to
the skin.

the different worths of soaps. The best
soap is good soaprmade by g reputa-
BILE manufacturer at fair price. The
cheap soaps are bad because Of an ex-
cess of alkali, and the expensive soaps
are usually made from the same stock
as the medium priced soaps, but
wrapped and scented trifie differently.
CASTLE soap is still much in great vogue,
but it is made in many different places
by many different manufacturers and
differs much in value. Good tar soap is
excellent for washing the hair. The So
called green soap is potash soap and
makes an excellent shampoo. Medical
cd scans are of no value except for the
soap itself. -Es..

The time for converting government
insurance into a permanent form is ap-
preaching, The plans are formulated
and the government is only delaying
The opening of conversion until every
little detail is pee ~ctcd. The govern
ment IS plan is te haye, the system
working so smoothly that a, man may
send-in his premium and his policy will
be sent to him within a week.
This insurance is the result of a
great deal Of labor and effort on the
part of some of the ~biggest insurance
men in the United States. 1t is the
best insurance man can buy and is
recognized and approved of by all
leading old line companies.
The government is Offering six differ
ent policies which embrace substantial
ly all insurance. They are: Ordinary
Life, Twenty and Thirty Payment Life,
Twenty and Thirty Year Endowment,
and Endowment at the age Of sixty-two
The present term insurance may be con
verified into any one of these policies
or may be split up into any number of
them. This conversion may take place
any time within five years after peace
is officially proclaimed.
IF the present term insurance has
been lapsed through lack Of informa-
ton or any other reason it may be re-
instated by paying all back premiums.
No medical examination is required.
