The Public Should Have Them Trans lated by the Druygists. The 1'tah Consolidated Gypsum company at Leran, Juab cojnty, Utah has recently erected a gypsum mill on their property. The Marysvale or eas' section of th Gold Mountain country, in Utah, Is looking more encourag.ng aul hopeful right now than it has for twelve o fifteen years. A twelve-inc- h vein of lch galena ore was uncovered fifty feet below the sur face in the Basin property at Wallace, Idaho, last week. Senator Heyburn is one of the owners of thib mine. A strike of gold in the grass roots in the Ieft Plank claim on Michigan hill, near Centennial, Wyo., has made At thirty feet a three excitement foot ledge showing $10 to the ton was uncovered. The largest and richest natural sluice box in the world, and perhaps the greatest deposit of gold ou earth, is to be found In the combined gold of the black sand concentrates of the Snake liver, Ida!:o. The Washington Mining & Milling company, operating rich gold prope: ties on Bear creek in the Marshal! lake district, is running a night and lay shift, the stamp mil! being kept in Iteration sixteen hours out of 24. There is a great ilea! of metal mill ing going on in the region radiating from Pocatello, and the opening of good coal measures in that section will do more to build up southeastern than anything that has ever happened. The North Star mine, on the east fork of Wood river, wil! soon join tho ranks of producing mines. Two years and a half ago the Ha'.iey mining bureau secured a lease u'jon It, with an option to purchase at r.uy time within five years for $500,000. A man named La Point has been at work on the Snake rive, below Parma, Idaho, installing a smaU plant for saving the values from the river sands. This plant has been worked for som time and the results are so satisfar? tory that a large one is to be installed Work at the Petit mine at Atlanta Idaho, is being rushed. The power plant is being put In, and it will b one of the fine ones of this part ot the state. The plant will be supplied through a flume 1,800 feet in length from which a fall of 58 feet is secured. The manager of the Rainbow company's properties in Little Cottonwood district reports having tapped silver-leaores in that properly, and he is now certain that he Is going to make a mine of It. The ore shows 189 ounces of silver, 25 per cent lead and 40c in gold, with some copper. A Spokane dispatch pays that Thos. r. r.reenontrh. millionaire mining m;frr and former partner of Peter Larson, has announced the purchase of 22,000 acres of placer ground in Fremont county, 22 miles from Lander, the nearest railway point, and will spend on the $1,000,000 in improvements property. Oil locations are being made nine miles south of Lovan, in Juab county, Utah, and the locators believe they will develop some phenomenally rich Oil was shipped from oil properties. in small quantities, sevei-a- l years ago, but lack of capital and proper facilities resulted in a cessation of development. The Mink Creek coal mines, near Pocatello, Idaho, have been opened to a depth of 300 feet on the dip of the vein, which is twelve leet thick be tween walls and which has a pitch ol between !!0 and :'.5 per cent from the horizontal. The quality of the coal la improving with depth, and the mine will undoubtedly make fortunes for its owners. The antimony district of Utah is in the northeast corner of Garfield county, about 200 miles from Salt Lake City. A rancher discovered the antiyean mony properties some twenty-siago. and but little work has beet done. But now Montana capital has taken hold of the proposition and i n concentrating mill to handle the lower grades of ore is Bearing com -- Id-h- What virtue is there in the secrecy with which the doctor hedges about his profession? "Professional etiquette" occupies a prominent place in the curriculum of every medical school, and when strictly analyzed "professional etiquette" seems to mean "doing what Is best for the doctor, individually and collectively." Among the things that "is best for the doctor" is the writing of his prescriptions In Latin, and thus keeping the public in ignorance not only of what it is taking for its ills, but forcing a call upon the doctor each time a prescription Is needed. In plain and unmistakable English the writing of prescriptions in Latin makes business for the doctors. Let us say that you have the ague. You had it last year and the year before. Each time you have visited the doctor and he has prescribed for you in Latin. You have never known what he has given you for the disease, and so each time you are forced to go to him again and give him an opportunity to repeat his prescription in Latin, and his fee In dollars. If you ask the doctor why he uses Latin in writing his prescriptions, why he writes "aqua" when he means water, he will give you a technical dissertation on the purity of the Latin language, and the fact that all words ate derived from It, etc. It will be a dissertation that you may not be able to answer, but it will hardly convince you. It would be a good thing for the public to devise a little code of ethics of Its own; ethics that will be "a good thing for the public individually and collectively." Let us apply one of t lie rules of this code of ethics to you, the individual. You call in the physician when you have the ague, the grippe, or any of the other ills to which human. flesh is heir, and which you may have again some day. The doctor prescribes in Latin, and you take this, to you, meaningless scribble to the druggist to have it compounded. Right here is where you come in, if you are wise. Say to the druggist that you want a translation of that prescription. It Is your privilege to know what you are taking. While the doctor's code of ethics may not recognize this right it Is yours just the same. With the translated prescription In your possession you have two distinct advantages. You know what you are taking, and should you wish to call Borne other doctor at some time you will be nble to tell him what drugs you have been putting into your system, and nlso If you should have the same plot ion. disease ngnln you can save yourself Sheridan county.

Profit by the Experience of One Who Has Found Relief. Grapes Beyond His Purie, Boy Took Humble Substitute. Youthful Philosopher Had Carefully Thought Out Situation. James R. Keeler, retired farmer, of Kenner St., Cazenovia, N. Y., says: .Tames Wilson, the secretary of agriculture, was discussing in Washington the aid which his department gives the American farmer. He pointed out the benefit that had been derived from the Introduction of darum wheat, of the wheat-testinmachine, and of the method of extracting potash from granite. "In fact," said Mr. Wilson, smiling.

"A look of anguish passed over the boy's face, and he said, hastily: " 'Then give us a cent's worth o' carrots. I'm dead nuts on fruit.' " It was Jamie's bath night. He had several each week and he hated them all. On this particular night, once started, he soaked and splashed in the tub for a full half hour, then his mother haled him forth. He came out of the room in his pajamas with his face all streaked and dirty as it was when he went in. "I "Mercy!" cried his mother. thought you took a bath." "So I did!" answered Jamie scornfully. "A bully one!" "But your face is black!" said his mother. "Oh!" Jamie smiled understand-ingly- . "My face Is all right. I have to wash that in the morning, bath or no bath.

FoBter-Milbur- APPEAL THAT WAS HEEDED. Judge Must Also Have Been Follower of the Gentle Art. John Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts, third of that name, who died about ten years ago, was very fond of fishing, and not especially fond of his legal profession. One day, the story runs, a case In which he was counsel was down for trial in a Massachusetts court. Mr. Adams did not make his appearance, but sent a letter to the judge. That worthy gentleman read it, and then postponed the case with the announcement: imon "Mr. Adams is detained portant business." it was afterward learned by a colleague of Adams that the letter read Evil of Tipping System. Although there is a great effort made to keep secret the thefts in hotels and restaurants in New York, it is quite evident they are on a rapid increase. The manager of a large restaurant says the system of having servants depend almost entirely upon patrons for their pay lowers their moral standard and causes them to look on those they are supposed to serve as their legitimate prey.

When a person has to keep the feet out from tinder cover during the coldest nights in winter because of tho heat and prickly sensation, it is time that coffee, which causes the trouble, be left off. There is no end to the nervous conditions that coffee will produce. It shows in one way in one person and in another way in another. In this case the lady lived in S. Dak. She says: "I have had to lie awake half the night with my feet and limbs out of the bod on the coldest nights, and felt afraid to sleep for fear of catching cold. I had been troubled for years with twitching and jerking of the lower limbs, and for most of the time I have been unable to go to church or to lectures because of that awful feeling that I must keep on the move. "When It was brought to my attention that cofTee caused so many nervous diseases, I concluded to drop coffee anil take Post urn Pood Coffee to see If my trouble was caused by coffee drinking.
