AGAIN MISTAKEN

Bond ng of the Cantu and Frances groups by the Premier company should be a squelch- ing blow to the knockers who have contended that the long continued failure of that com pany to become interested in o.her properties in the district was violence that there was nothiu 2 worth while outside or the Premier holdings. All too often has this cry been raiseu against the Hyder district out side and there is little doubt that it has been a most potent factor in breeding distrust of the camp and it's possibilities in many quarters. Time has conclus vely disproved that one-time favorite designation of lone mine camp" as we'll as a variety of other equally i'll founded knocks, and now the Premier has completed the job by displaying decided ly active interest in other properties. Not only has the company investigated and sampled a large number of the better known properties during the past year or so but has ended up by bonding two of what may be considered as among the lesser known and least developed mineral To- cations in the Salmon River area.
 After this disconcerting proof that they are again all wrong, we wonder what else the knockers can find to yawp about.

ODE TO A WOMAN

She's an angel in truth, a de- mon in fiction,
 A woman's the greatest in all contradiction,
 She's afraid of cockroacn, she'll scream at a mouse, But she'll tackle a husband as big as a house,
 She'll take him for better, she'll take him for worse, She'll split his head open and then be his nurse,
 And when he is we'll and can get out of bed
 She'll pick up a teapot and throw at his head.
 She's faithful, deceitful keen sighted and blind.
 She's crafty, she's simple, she's cruel, she's kind;
 She'll lift a man up, she'll cast a man down,
 She'll take him apart and make him a clown.
 You fancy she's this but you'll find that she's that,
 For she'll play like a kitten and bite like a cat.
 In the morning she will, at evening she won't,
 You're always expecting she does, but she don't Exchange

IN NAME OF ADVERTISING

Many business firms charge sundry items to advertising, either because they don't know what else to do with them or they can get them by the in- come tax inspectors under that heading, whereas these items ought to be charged to donations or money thrown away. False bookkeeping ana records won't help anybody. intelligent analysis of adver- Using is as necessary as is in telligent analysis of any other part of business. Find out by study, tests, etc., what is legiti- mate advertising, and do that kind of advertising on a busi- ness basis.
 Don't load the advertising at count with money paid out as donations. Advertising can be made the biggest asset in any business, but it requires more intelligence and application than any other department. That is naturally true. It is usual to find the greatest re- 2ults where there are expeno- ed the greatest efforts. Of course, there must be potenti- alities. But wise advertising has these.

PROMOTE CITIZENSHIP

ITO be good citizens" ad- vises a wise and patriotic judge, in welcoming new citi- zens to civic fellowship, 'you should read newspapers, and bring your children up to read newspapers, so you will know what is going on in your com munity, in your country and in your world"

election and inauguration is logically ridiculous.
 Having inauguration day in January, we can begin at once on any changes in policy that the will of the people shown in the elections has declared for.
 The Norris resolution may not pass. The power of inertia is very great. But sooner or later the indicated change will be made, for the power of com mon sense is in the long run greater.

TO LIVE LONG!

Work steadily when you work, play hard when you play, rest a little and sleep enough. Keep your head cool, your feet warm. Wash outside and inside, have a sense of hu- nor and eat what your body and brain should have. Worry a little to save worrying a lot. Wisely invest your experience and part of your income. Be dependable in word, kindly in deed, and always give gooo service.
 If these rules fail to make you live a long and happy life, something is wrong some where-and you know where it is.
