Built by the US. Government at a cost of nearly a half million dollars, with the express object of opening this new and remarkably mineralized portion of the Hyder, Alaska section of the Portland Canal Mining District to development and exploitation.
 Cold,Slver, Copper and Lead Ores abound in this wonderful mineral region and offer excellent opportunities for profitable mining investment under the economical transportation conditions provided by the splendid, new l2 mile hig ghway traversing the Texas creek valley from end to end.
 In addition to opening this rich mineral region to mining endeavor, the Texas Creek Highway offers scenic excursion of matchless mountain, scenery, and the most remarkable glacier vistas in the world.

Savings deposits have enjoyed . notable increase during recent months, and year-end statements of the finance companisS show that in- stallment credit has weathered the storm in excellent fashion.
 There is another side to the pic- ture, comprising a fairly extensive list of items that reflect past con- ditions or special situations that have not yet been corrected. In- dustrial earnings statements reveal Q, sharp decrease from 1929, aver aging 35 to 70 per cent, and if the results for the third and fourth quarters be studied alone they show . much worse condition than do figures for the year as q whole. This has had a striking effect on the so- called "equity" or common shares, which participate in the profits af- ter preferred dividend charges, and the "prfce earnings ratios" based on the last half of 1880 and prob able earnings in the first half of 1881 do not appear promising.

UnfairPain

It Is not fair that some women should suffer so each month. It isn't necessary! The periodic process is natural, but the painful part is not. Midol will prove this to every woman who will try 1t. These wonderful tab- lets are non-narcotic, but they ban ish every bit of pain They act di- rectly on the organs affected and they take effect in five to seven min utes. Better yet, the woman who an- ticipates her time and takes 8 tiny tablet of Midol beforehand will ex- perience no pain at all.
 Realize what Midol means. It is the product of specialists for this special purpose and it really does end all suffering and even the dis comfort women once had to endure at such times. Always obtainable at any drugstore in the convenient metal pocket case for only fifty cents. Many have found Midol the quickest relief for headaches, neu- ralgia, neuEitis, and other pain.

FISHING BOAT WILL
 HAVE CHAPEL

A 126-foot fishing schooner which is under construction at the Lake Union Dry Dock and Machine Works, Seattle, for Portuguese fishermen will have a chapel in which the men may pray when storms threaten.
 The Portuguese will not brave the dangers of roaring storms Cn the fishing banks without a definite place in which they may raise their applications for divine protection. The chapel will contain an altar and is to be constructed on the upper deck back of the pilot house. The ves- sel will operate on the tuna banks off Lower California and will represent an investment of $100,000.
