 and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless prepara tions and treatments which continually bein z advertised for the purpose of making thin people feshy. developing arms neck and bust. and replacing ugly holows and angles by the soft curved lines Of health and beauty. there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive Ihinness
 Thinness and weakness often due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more pnos- phate than is contained in modern. foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency well the organic phosphate known among druggists bitro- phosphate. which is inexpensive and is sold by Clark & Brainerd and almost all drug Sists under a guarantee of satis action money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements. bitro- phosphate should produce welcome trans formation in the appearances: the increase in weight frequently being astonishing
 Increase in weight also carries with it a general improV Vement in the health. Nerv- ousness. sleeplessness and lack of energy. which nearly always accompany excessive thinness, should disappear. dull eyes brighten and pale checks glow with the bloom of perfect health.

Note books from all classes are
to be up-to-date before the vaca-

COeur d. Alene Mine Placed
in Shape For Operation

Last Thursday, T. H. jerks, the
chief consulting engineer and
manager of the National Finance
and Holding Co., of Toledo, Ohio.
made visit to the Coeur d. Alene
mine, principally for the purpose
of arranging to have the machin-
cry overhauled and some repairs
made on the shafthouse, shaft,
ETC., and stated that as soon as
mining conditions become more
favorable, the company intends to
resume operations.
The Coeur d. Alene is one of the
early day high-class producers,
having a record of upwards of
$4,000, which was taken out in
less than 400 feet in depth, and it
is expected that with a limited
amount of additional develop
ment work, the mother deposits of
the rich ore will be encountered
that will yield no small amount.
G. E. Bolander of Black Hawk,
has been placed in charge of the
present work.
This company also owns large
mines in New Mexico, which have
been developed sufficiently to war
rant the erection Of 500-ton mill
there.

There are 100000 hunters in
the United States, according to
the chief of the United States
game warden in the Biological
Survey, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. This esti-
mate was made from reports on
the number of game licenses is
sued by the various states.
In 1919, 100000 state licen-
ses were issued, and in addition
it is estimated that 100000 hunt
ers are exempted under various
state provisions. The returns to
the states from licenses was ap-
proximately $4,5OO,OOO, all of
which was expended by the states
in administration of state laws
for the protection of game. This
sum permits the employment of
approximately 1000 salaried state
game wardens and 600 fee war;
dens. The congressional appro-
priation for the Federal game
warden service for protection of
migratory birds is $142,5OO, which
permits the employment of only
90 salaried wardens.

The Tri-Tunnel Amendment

The very substantial majority
in favor of the Tri-Tunnel amend.
ment amounting to something
over 10000 votes in the city of
Denver, is most gratifying to tie
committee that had charge Of the
campaign. The general feeling of
leading business and professional
men who devoted much of their
time to the project is that the re-
turns from Denver will serve to
crystalline sentiment in favor of
the construction of the Moffat
tunnel and that some feasible
plans will be presented for con-
sideration in the near future. The
fact that the majority of voters
in the state could not appreciate
the great necessity confronting
Colorado is not in the least dis
couraging to these men. We feel
confident in stating that the re-
suits have served to stimulate
their efforts in bringing about the
construction of the Moffat tunnel.
Another result Of the splendid
showing made by the Denver vot-
ers will be to indicate to the rest
of the state that Denver's position
is not selfish, but that she has the
interest of the entire state at
heart and that she appreciates the
ploblems of the citizens on the
Western slope of southwestern

THE MINING OUTLOOK

1ucIc iS Always tWO SlucS W
every question: dark side and
bright side. The pessimist is too
apt to look only upon the dark
side while the optimist sees only
the bright. Those who expect to
continue in the mining business
should see and understand both
sides. They should realize and
understand the difficulties. which
confront the industry and prepare
to overcome them. 1t is not with
in the scope of this article to en-
ter into details of those difficult
ties. Something is needed in the
way of legislation and other prob
lens connected with mining must
be solved and many of the best
minds of the country are today
graphing with those problems.
These problems are not new but
have existed since mining first be-
,gan and many of them have been
partly solved. Many improve
ments have been made in treating
and mining our ores since that
far off day when the first pros
pector with his crude appliance
separated the gold from the sand.
But great as this improvement
has been, it is not too much to ex-
pect in this age of invention that
far greater advancement in min
ing methods will be made in the
next few years.
Gilpin county was prosperous
and her mines were successfully
operated under far greater diff
culties than those which confront
us now. 1t is probably true that
we are being gouged by the smelt-
er, but that is not the main rea-
son why our mines do not pay bet
ter. They paid when it cost $1OO
per ton to smelt ore. They paid
when it cost $75 and $50 dollars
per cord to get it milled. The
principal reason why our mines
do not pay better now than they
did in our earlier history is be-
cause we are doing very little leg
itimite mining.
Every company that invests in
mining insists upon a mine with
good record. A mine with
good record has usually taken out
the richest part of its ore as far
as it is developed. If it had not
done this it would not have a rec
ord. For the past few years in
Gilpin county, many of the COM
panies have spent their money
mining for what the other fellow
left, because at the time it cost
him too much to have the ore
treated to work it profitably. In
order for these old mines with
good records to pay as they did in
boom days, we must sink them
deeper and open up again the ore
bodies which gave them records.
But we are told that it will be a
greater expense to mine at an in
creased depth. This may be true
but the cost of smelling is so
much less now than then that it
will far more than Offset the ex-
ira expense. We must either open
up new mines without a record or
sink our mines deeper if we ex-
pect to prosper. We have the
mines if they are properly worked.
