I would impress this upon your mind, and add anotlierjmaxim which I pray you heed and be wise. It is this: "Land constitutes the real basis of all values." Corporations may fail, houses may burn, bonds may prove worthless, and "the fool and his money soon part," but if you own as much as 200 acres of land in Texas your wife can hold that for a HOME against the world. The BATTLE for a home is growing fiercer every day. Don't spend two much time listening buy now and laugh later ' when prices have advanced. I have the bargain you are look ing for. M. W.

The Mining Prospects of Pot ter County. The numerous and varied lines of inquiry by mail and in person make it necessary to ask the needed pace in your columns for reply. Having spent several years in prospecting the northern and .west ern portions of Potter and adjoin ing counties in an effort to deter mine where the many evidences of copper, gold and silver were com ing from, I was at last (some two years ago) rewarded in finding perfect walls of quart.ite and por phyry situated near the V. W. & I). C. Railway northwest of Ama rillo about twentv-three miles. These walls are in two sets and are from one hundred and fifty to two hundred feet between walls, one set being on the south side of the railway and the other about three miles on the north side. Between the foot and hanging wall are numerous ore shoots which resemble stumps of large trees and are composed of lime, sand and iron carbonates and quartzite heav ily impregnated with gold, copper and some lead and silver. The Tripple Metal Mining Com pany secured leases on such of these lands as were regarded by mining men of much experience as mineral bearing, and where the formation is in place. 1 his in cludes many sections of land and takes in the walls where exposed in dykes, etc. A charter was taken out under the laws of Texas and a shaft five by seven feet was sunk on the property south of railway and between walls on "ore shoot." At about 47 feet deep we. cut a body of quartzite under a body of blue-black talc which was about two feet thick and assayed $25 90 per ton, gold. This body is sil vanite croppings and dips slightly northward. Beneath this lay a body of sand and decomposed quartz which pan ned free gold estimated to run more than a thousand dollars per ton in places and we here exposed a thickness of seven feet and a width of alxnit forty feet, bv driving a tunnel at bottom of shaft. At this stage of development our shaft caved in and could not be worked further.

This is a very dangerous dis ease unless properly treated. Sta tistics show that there are more deaths from it than from scarlet fever. All danger may be avoided, however, by giving Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It liquifies the tough mucus, making it easier to expectorate, keeps tho cough loose, and makes the paroxysms of coughing less frequent and less severe.
