/ YOUNG man has written me a
L letter in which he Saws.

a YOUNG man has written me a
" letter in which he says:
n THE only thing that man
knows about women is, that
he doesn't know a single, solitary,
blooming thing about her. Now, I
wish to get married, and I will be
eternally grateful to you if you can
put me wise to any method by which
altar, even approximately what sort
of a wife a girl is likely to make"
Surely son, surely. The one really
clever thing that women have ever
done is to establish in the minds of
man the tradition that they are
fathoming. That has enabled the
fair sex to camoeflage it's arts and
it's wiles, and to run in all sorts
of hocus-pocus stuff on poor unsus-
pecting men.
For, you, see, man has been so
thoroughly convinced that woman is
a conundrum whose answer he can
never guess. anyway. that he never
tried to guess the riddle at all,
but goes it blindly and trusts to
luck, where she is concerned. Which
is all nonsense, for woman, in real
who runs may read, if he will.
To begin with, if the man who
is thinking of getting married would
pay more attention to what is in
the Skull Immediately under q girl s
hair thar! he does to the color of
tice of the size and shape Of her
jaw bone than he does of her COM
plexion, and if he would give more
time to observing whether her nos
trils are thin and quivering than he
does to whether her profile is class
ic or piquant, he would start off
with very good tip as to the kind
of a wife he is likely to get If he
marrieS her.
For matrimony works no miracles.
1t will not change fool into a
wise woman, nor will it convert the
maiden with a square, bulldog chin
into soft and yielding, clinging
vine who asks her husband what
he thinks she thinks, and whose
only desire in life is to flop on
some manly arm. Neither Is the
maiden who is nervous and emo
tional by temperament apt to be

Old Man Had Reason to Be Thankful
That His Pig Developed Quality
Of Enterprise.

One OF the most important appllca-
tons of geological science is the point
ing out OF places likely to yield stores
of mineral wealth. And yet, where
copper is concerned, the really great
discoveries in this country have been
made by pure luck.
1t was Old Man Roynle's pig that
located, according to the story the
richest copper mine in the world-the
famous Calumet lode.
Old Man Royale was not interested
in mining; he kept a boarding house.
But his pig was gifted with the valu-
able quality Of enterprise. Grabbing

prehistoric Indian cache.
The cache contained a large guam

"Native" copper was used to con
siderable extent by the Indians in pre-
Columbian days, for ornamental pur-
| poses chiefly. Ancient aboriginal skel-
etons have been dug up wearing cop
per masks. In Michigan they got cop
per out of rocks by building fires
against them; and huge nuggets of
mass" copper weighing hundreds of
pounds have been found in the Lake
Superior region which showed signs
of unsuccessful attack. The Indians
had no tools with which to cut up
such great Jumps, and they could not
carry them away bodily.
Copper is the American metal par
excellence, and of all the metals Is
the most useful to mankind, iron alone
