 Mine Near Hyder

There are some potential million airs in Ketchikan right now as the result of the fine mineral showing of the Mountain View Co.,, near Hyder under the able management of superintendent Moa," said Ed c. Austin to the Ketchikan Chronicle.
 Mr. Austin while in Hyder recently to get some assays for new mining district which he and companions dis covered, made a trip thru the Moun- tain View property from top to bof- tom. He said the assays were sat isfactory.
 'It is no secret that the owners, Ketchikan people who have financed the mine, have already been offered a big price for the property and could cash in right now on their stock for handsome profits. But if they COZ tinue to finance the mine and put it on a production basis it means the difference between a few thousands and a few million dollars"

Nose Examinations.

1t Is far from the proper province OF
a health teacher, think, to describe
diseases or tell newspaper readers what
the symptoms of this or that disease
are. But I don't think It can do any
one harm to recognize the signals that
should prompt one to visit the doctor
for an examination of the nasal cavity.
No doubt in the great majority of cases
the doctor viii find that there Is a
simple chronic rhinitis. state--it can
hardly be called disease--but an abb
normal state which few of us in civil
lied life do not have in some degree
at one time or another. AS rule a
few office treatments applied by the
doctor, and perhaps some correction of
general hygiene. will remedy this trou-
bic. In minority of cases where these
signals prompt the patient 10 seek
medical examination, other conditions
will be found. and sometimes more
radical treatment will be required. II
the patient wants relief.
Here are the signals:
j. ANY nasal discharge, watery run
ming at the nose, excessive fiow of
mucus. which demands frequent Blow
ing OF the nose or induces hawking by
draining into the back Of the throat.
2. Any obstruction OF either side OF
the nose. either OF permanent sort or
alternating now this side. now that.
Stuffiness.
3. So-cailed nasal voice"
4. Frequent sneezing from no evident

WORLD FAMOUS STORIES
BY BERNARDO mLIcIsI
A TALE OF OLD SIENA

Angelica at first wept at the thought
Of going TO offer herself TO man whom
she did not love, and had never thought
Of loving. but she recognized the wis
dom Of her brothers words, and anx-
iOus as weil as he to uphold the honor
OF their name. she consented to his de-
mands. Together they went to Ansel-
mos house then and Carlo left his sis
ter alone there, after explaining briefly
to Anselmo his reasons Tor 50 doing.
But Anselmo. seeing how sad An
gelica was, sent some of his female rel
atives TO console her Then he sum-
moned his best friends and they all
made a party to take Angelica back to
her brothers house. Once there. An
selnnO spoke before the assembled COM
pany as follows:
Dear friends and relations, wish TO
remind you OF the surprising grace and
courtesy of manners shown by Carlo
and his sister Angeiica-and also their
generosity and gratitude. Such merit
deserves to have foolish feud abolish
ed, and I say. for my part, that such
feud ceases from this moment TO exist.
For, believing me 10 be his bene-
| factor. Carlo has offered me his sister
Angelica, having no other way to repay
me. his fortunes In the world having
declined. And ], before you all. restore
Angelica to her brother. ! recognize
then noble generosity, but /, too, know
honor and cannot take what Angelica
herself will not give-her love.
Please remember that none Dut
themselves know that ! might be their
benefactOr. IT was not the world they
feared. but only their own minds. They
could not live with a sense OF ingfati-
tude or thinking that ] might think
| tIle.l unglateful. So they decided to
make this sacrifice OF his sister,
| Angelica Of herself.
Il can think, therefore, Of no one
| more noble than Carlo. Ind OF no lady
more worthy OF love and honor than
| Angelica. I shall therefore, as soon
as she shall be persuaded TO accept me,
gladly take her for my wife"
Recognizing the worth Of such man
and being prevailed upon by many SYM
pathetic women, Angelica willingly ac-
| cepted Anselmo for husband. and the
marriage ceremony was performed
then and there, Anseimo spoke again:
cit would not be fitting for Angelica
| to come 10 the house OF Saiimbeni with
out a dowTy; therefore, confer upon
her fourth OF my property for dowry,
and like share upon Carlo, her
brother, for his own private Use and
enjoyment"
4 Loud murmurs OF applause greeted
| these words, and the assembly voiced
| heartfelt approval of all that Anseinu
| had said and done. So there was q
great celebration. the feud was ended
and Ansein1o and Angelica each had
found loving mate.

Care of the Hair.

One of the most annoying prob
lens with which milady has to con-
tend In Summertime Is moist, per-
spring scalp. Often this condition is
mistaken for excessive oilineSs, but 1t
Is really not the same thing.
It Is, OF course, natural to perspire
more on hot days than in cool weather
and the sweat glands in the scalp par
ticipate In the general increase in ac-
tivity. Although the one or two pints
Of liquid secreted by the sweat glands
during a day contain uric acid and
other waste products. the main func-
tion of perspiration is to regulate body
temperature. People who do not per-
spire freely suffer from the heat more
than does the average person, because
the evaporation Of this secretion cools
the surface of the body.
Just as it is necessary to bathe more
frequently in hot weather, than in cold,
1t Is also desirable to wash the hair
oftener. The moisture secreted by the
scalp catches the dust from the at
mosphere and the hair soon begins to
smell musty and look dull. Once a
week Is not too often to shampoo the
hair in Summertime, provided that a
pure, mild soap is used. Rinse well In
warm water and then in cold.
After the shampoo an astringeni
tonic may be applied to the scalp with
medicine dropper before the hair i:
entirely dry. A simple tonic Of thi:
kind has the following ingredients:
ounces witch hazel, ounce alcohol
20 grains resocin, IS grains sulphate
of quinine. When the scalp has beer
moistened all over with the tonic. mas
sage 1t for 10 minutes. Place one hant
on top Of your head and with the
other massage upward from the hail

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

June 20, 1S0l---A contract was con-
cluded by the City Commissioners today
for the erection of brick structure, 10
feet by "a feet, and elliptical In shape,
as temporary addition to the Capitol.
1t will be built In accordance with plans
prepared by James Hoban at the re-
quest of the Commissioners for esti-
mates for "a temporary building on the
elliptic foundations in the south wing
of the Capitol for the accommodation of
the Representatives of the United
States"
1t is expected that the addition will
be completed by next November In time
for occupation by the members of the
House of Representatives at the second
session of Congress to be held In the
Federal City. 1t will be built of brick
and will be connected with the Senate
chamber by a covered passage. The
contract price for the new structure Is
$4789.
The north wing of the Capitol is the
only portion of the proposed structure
that has been erected thus far. Only
the foundations for the dome or central
portion have been built and the walls of
the south wing are but few feet above
the ground. The exterior walls of the
north wing are built of sandstone, ex-
cept on the south side, where temporary
walls of brick serve as q protection
against the weather.
The floor of the Senate chamber Is on
level with the basement floor OF the
building and the ceiling extends through
two stories A colonnade of wooden pill
lars covered with lath and plaster rests
upon arches caSed In wood. The gal
lery Is behind the colonnade.
The entrance to the chamber of the
House is on the next floor. This room
occupies the space on the west front of
the building with the ceiling extending
through two stories. This room has
been found to be very inadequate for the
House.
The discomforts of living in ''new
settlement" especially one scattered
over such wide area as the Federal
City. are unpleasantly in evidence at
present, but it is believed they will rap
idly disappear.as new residences, hotels,
boarding houses and shops spring up.
Already several boarding houses are
available in the vicinity of the Capitol
and others are to be found on street
ridge and In the vicinity of the White
House, not TO mention Georgetown,
which. however, is so far away that
members of the House and Senate find
1t very inconvenient to reside there.

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT

Time hangs heavy on his hands. He
doesn't find things interesting, because
ne mas so few interests, and these do
not run deep. Much Of this craving

And then there IS the other extreme
tne man who Is bored because ne is
Jaded. All OF his interests have been

making words for such mental states
and call him ''blase," just as they have
better word for boredom than We

Nature seems to have provided q
special bore gesture In the yawn. This
should serve as q convenient social
signal OF boredom. And how we strur-

1t is inevitable that all of us. inter

at all in others, should be constantly
open to the Inconvenience Of boring
and being bored. It's q great art-the
art or being fnterestiEg-and it's conn
pliment to anybody to find others inter-
ested. and not bored by what he has
to say. We should all be willing to
have some acquaintance with boredom
to appreciate by contrast the charm Of
interest and the right cultivation Of
many interests In the cult Of mental

Boredom.

What and why is a bore? 1t is
said to be both virtue and a trial to
bear fools gladly. Our first concern
and sympathy Is with the person VINO
is bored-the "boree"-rather than with
the one who does the boring-the
"borer."
Assuming that neither B nor v is
boresome. by constitution or all the
way through. B bores v because he
insists on talking to v about matters
in which v has no interest. Some one
has said that typical bore is a per-
son who tells you all about his family
or experiences or ideas. or feelings, or
maladies or remedies. or household ar
rangements, or travels. or dreams. or
what have you? While you want to
be telling him about yoursl
That's partly true. but more than
partly false. For B--the bore-and W
the victim-are. as rule, not only Of
tereStS, but of different minds in terms
of their makeup.
The bore is narrow-minded; perhaps
that's why he is called so. He makes
long -winded. narrow aperture Of talk.
He lacks the breadth to realize that
other minds may have other interests.
But it's more than matter of breadth
or of any other dimension. It is mat
ter Of perspective. which implies several
dimensions. It IS matter Of the gen.
eral plan and layout Of your mind. Fit
minds are well proportioned.
The key to that proportion is i'm

your plans and purposes and inter-
ests. some are (or should bel of major

scale. The one is design: the other
patchwork OF odds and endS-with
more odds than ends.
The bore Is monotonous, all Of one
color, all In one tone OF voice, OF one
scale OF importance. He chokeS every
thing with irrelevant detail. He can't
omit. He packs trunk for picnic.
He has q boresome mind. Perhaps he
can't help 1t: he may be q poor fish
with no great resources: and We let
him down easily, as We pay the organ
grinder to move on. But should the
organgrinder have the delusion that he
is an entertaining orchestra. he be-

In avoiding bores. ] have seen a

Care Of Silver During the Summer.
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER,

not need to take this step. It Is stiu
advisable to see that the silver is pyt
away and in the right manner. first on
account OF the lessened amount of care.
and, second, because In the Summer
season heavy silverware like the tea
service, for instance. is generally re-
placed by glass and chinaware more
suited to the serving of Summer drinks.
The chief consideration is. of course,
TO see that the silver Is In the best DOS
sible condition when being laid away.
Even when silver Is well rubbed and
looks very bright and shining when it
is put away, unless the right precau-
tionary methods are taken it may look
black and tarnished when it is taken
out at the end of two or three months.
There are certain measures which help
a great deal to prevent this, and the
best of 1t is that they are all quite
simple and easy to take. For one thing,
Il Is of the utmost Importance to see
that the silver is perfectly dry before
putting 1t away. The tiniest moist
particle will serve as nucleus of a
ring of tarnish that will prove very
difficult to remove
If the silver has been in recent use,
and, therefore. has to be washed, do not
be satisfied with drying such as would
ordinarily be sufficient but give 1t a
second going over with an absolutely
dry cloth or piece of tissue paper. The
added moments that Ii takes to do this
may mean the saving of several hours
and much elbow grease in the Fall.
Care should be exercised to see that
no grains of salt are left upon salt
spoons or cellars that are to be put in
the drawer with the rest of the silver,
Not only does salt serve to collect
moisture. thus promoting tarniSh, but it
also has a corroding effect If it comes
in direct contact with the metal This
may do permanent harm. One of the
best safeguards against tarnish is a
piece Of camphor placed in the drawer
where the fumes viii permeate the
wrappings about the silver.
AS to the wrappings themselves, felt
or canton flannel bags are excellent to
hold any large pieces that are to be put
away. These are quickly made, as they
require but two seams and a draw
string at the top.
Also, they last from year to year, and
so make matters easy on more than one
occasion. But, If the housewife pre-
fers. she may use old pieces of soft
cloth in the place of the bags, taking
care in folding them about the silver
to see that no parts are exposed. An
old bedSpreac torn into pieces is Just
the thing fer this purpose. II sterling
silver knives, forks and spoons are to be
put away in favor of plated Ones they
should be wrapped in tissue paper with
one thickness between each piece or
else put into flannel container with
separate compartments made especially
for this use.
