 "A Tale Of Two Worlds"
 The action begins in Pekin at the time of the Boxer uprising but soon shifts to San Francisco's underworld, where the young white girl rescued from the Boxers by faithful Chinese servant, has been reared as his daugh- ter and is coveted by the evil Ling Jo. How she escapes from his baneful in fiuence through the love of a native born Chinese. who sacrifices his own love that she may be happy with one of her own race, forms the backbone of the thrilling story.

The great war caused it to rise like a skyrocket, and It went up and up until in January or last year it reached. the peak sl.3S1a cents. Naturally, there was a tremendous boom in silver mining in this country.
 England after the war had an urgent and even alarming need for silver, for circulation in India. where the natives had acquired q notion that perhaps Great Britain was going broke" and were bringing their paper money to the banks, demanding it's redemption in coin.
 In this emergency Uncle Sam came to the rescue. Congress ordered the Mint Bureau to melt 900, 900. 900 ounces of silver cartwheel dollars. or as much thereof as might be required, and sold the metal as bullion to the British Government at a dollar an ounce.
 Electric furnaces were installed for the purpose, and POS, 100000 ounces were thus melted and sold.

MAKE STRIDES IN
RADIUM CANCER CURE
(By Associated Pres0

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-Stimullat-
ed by the recent visit to the United
States of Nine. Curie, its djscoverer,
scientists in this country are making
new progress in treating cancer with
radium, according to r. B. Moore,
chief chemist of the U. S. Bureau of
Mints.
The highly scientific treatment of
disease by the ,use of radiunm, how
ever, Mr.. Moore says, is successful
only when applied with the greatest
skill. .....-
"All cancer cannot be so cured, and
it requires a skilled surgeon who
thoroughly understands the proper
dosage inorder to get favorable re-
SUITS" NJ. Moore states.
"At the present time the United
States produces more radium than all
tht rest of the world put together.
"Frpm the beginning of the indus
try in 1913 to January, 1921, approx
imately lis grams of radium ele-
ments have been produced in this
country. Probably not more than 40
grams have been recovered from for
eign ores since the discovery of ra-
dunn by Nine. Curie."
Mr.. Moore said that most of the
domestic production of radim is from
mines inColorado.
