"HE rich man in the new
limousine and the slender
little uniformed nurse with
the big brown eyes and very pink
cheeks passed each other two
squares from the Kensington
flower house, but neither saw the
other then. He was going to the
club for breakfast and she was
on her way to take constitu-
tional before her days work.
But each was singing the same
song in his and her heart, though
neither of them knew it. an the
Spring a young mans fancy"
they sang and then smiled at
their foolishness.
An hour later the little uni
formed nurse rounded the corner
at the flower house. She stopped
minute to drop dime into the
crippled beggar's cup. At the
little restaurant she had eaten a
smaller breakfast than usual to
afford this gift.
She was thinking then. The
children needed new stockings.
She. didn't blame the charity
worker for saying they couldn't
have any until next month. That
seemed the only way to make her
learn to mend them, but
A stifled cry, falling thud and
the little uniformed nurse lay
perfectly still in the center of
the street, her face as white as
the collar and cuffs on her blue
gray dress.
With a rush they were all
around her: The policeman,
whose hand she had dressed for
several weeks, after an accident:
the young clerk whose little
brothers and sisters she had
nursed through the flu, the work.
er whose wife she had brought
back from the stupor following
childbirth, and all the others.
They wanted to touch the little
uniformed visiting nurse, just to
see II she were alive. But the
policeman pushed them all back.
People can be killed with
kindness as we'll as by a motor"
he said with gruffness, which he
was sure would hide the tears
in his eyes.
Then he flourIshed his billy
toward the chauffeur of the big
limousine. But he didn't muir

tocratic man who had been rid
ing inside raised the uniformed
nurse in his arms and carried
her to the car. Take the num-

Then he noticed her nurses cos

life had been a hospital operation.

Custer is one of the large central
counties of Idaho, embracing one Of
the most highly elevated and rugged
mountain sections of the state, its mini
mum and maximum elevations ranging
between 5000 and 1850 feet above
sea level.
In spite of its rugged topography, this
region is blessed with excellent auto
mobile roads and highways to its re-
hottest mining districts. It's chief points
of access are by way of the Wood River
branch railway terminal at Ketchum
by way of a government constructed
boulevard over the Galena Summit,
1000 feet high, on maximum grade Of
per cent TO the head of Salmon river;
and by way of the Mackay branch
terminal at Maekay through the upper
Lost River country and over very
low divide to the Salmon river at Chsl-
lis so miles distant, which road is daily
covered for ten months OF the year
with an auto stage truck on three and
a half hour schedule.
Geologically Inviting
Geologically, it possesses all the es
sential elements of a successful and
lasting metal mining region. It's prin-
eipal commercial minerals are lead, sill
yer, copper and gold-bearing ores bu
deposits of the rare- minerals, inclul
ing nickel cobalt tin, tungsten. molyb-
denum, and small stov incs of higher
grade uranium ID airing minerals are
available. Its mining districts have
been extensively prospected, to very
shallow degree, however, and without
much regard to important economic
factors that its ore deposits present.
A type of shallow deposits of bonan-
"a values in siliceous gold and silver
milling ores, whose notable production
of upwards of slO0,0OO,OO0 was large
" made well within thousand feet Of
the surface apex of the veins, occurred
in recent volcanic formations, such as
Silver City, De Lamar, Atlanta, and the
Yankee Fork mining districts of Custer
county.
