FUTURE SEEMS BRIGHT
FOR SILVER MINING

Conditions seem to be Just about
right for a boom In the silver min-
ing In all camps. Uncle Sam has
standing c-der with tie miner OF
this metal in the United States for
al az II he can produce during the
next four CT five years, or until the
20.,vuO.cO0 ounces sold to England
dueiEg the war are replaced in the
United States treasury. The mines
of this country will produce about
11O,OO0,OOO ounces of silver during
the next four years and Uncle Sans
untitled order at the present time IL
about 100000 ounces.
Under these conditions why not
boom for the white metal districts
in this country within the next few
years? The miner is guaranteed
a fixed price Of 81 an ounce for his
production and with every drop in
the ccs. Of supplies and in wages,
his profits will increase proportion
atoly. There isn't a chance that
the Pittman re-purchase Act will be
repealed, because Uncle Sam gave
his word to the west that he would
re-purchase the silver sold to Eng
land, and he always keeps his word.
And then again, 1t isn't costing IN
Gle Sam anythiny'to rc?lac this sill
yer. He received 81 an ounce for
the silve- taken from the treasury
and sold 10 England and is simply
replacing it at the same price.
Old time Nevada camps are talk
Ing on renewed activity ana by the
time that summer comes again the
mountains will be alive with min
era and prospectors. A revival in
silver mining will mean greater ac-
tivity in all classes of metal produc-
ton There are signs that the
world wide demand Of the next sew
eral years for gold and silver as well
as copper, lead, zinc, tungsten, moly-
bdenum and other metals, will cause
the mines Of the west to boom as
never before.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"cooTlE."

DROfABI,Y more new words
L entered the English Ian
guage since August /, 1914,
than in any similar time in his
tory. "Boche". and ''camou-
ilage," big BERTHA" "Archie"
and "blighty" are only u few
of the terms which, though ex-
listing prior to the outbreak Of
hostilities, We're comparatively
unknown on this side Of the At
lantic. But few of the war
words caught the popular fancy
and at the same time aroused
public interest like "cootie."
Some of the English troops,
when asked as to the origin of
the name, declared that the
parasites were so called because
the soldiers, in derision, referred
to them as "cuties." To arrive
at the real genesis of the term.
however, one must go back a
good deal further than the men,
DRY of any living man. In at
least three places in the British
isles the word has been used for
many years with varying mean
ings. When. for example,
Scotchman spoke OF a "cootie"
he referred either to porridge-
bowl or to a fowl with feathers
on its legs. In Shropshire the
word means SNUG" or comfort
able" while the natives of
Worcestershire used II to refer to
something that wriggled or
squirmed. II was very evidently
the latter definition, coupled
with The fact that large COO
tie might be said to resemble
weird kind of bird, that gave
rise ~ the nicsname-though II
is an Interesting fact that kuti
is the Sanskrit word for body"
and khuti, in .Urudu, means
"scab."
