When You Purchase
The East Comstock Wonder Mining Company
At 15 Cents a Share
WHEN the merits of this property are considered, 40 cents would be a small price. The company owns the "Big Hit" and "Grace No. 3"
claims, situated in the heart of the Ramsey Mining District, Nevada, and are classed with the choicest properties there. The Walk-over
group, the Ramsey Brothers' property, and Capt. Davis' holdings — on all or which rich strikes have been made — surround the East Com-
stock Wonder Claims. On the "Biff I lit" claim of the East Comstock Wonder Mining Company #600 ore was encountered in doing assessment
work. This ledge is undoubtedly the continuation of that which runs through the Ramsey-Comstock, a property which has proven a greater
mine than the Mohawk at Goldfield.
The East Comstock Wonder Mining Company
Also owns the Dana claim, which is situated four miles south of the Comstock, from which $640,000,000.00 has been extracted. It is already a ship-
per and work is steadily progressing on it. Two ledges, assaying $37.50 and $6F> per ton respectively, have been uncovered, and all the ore from
this claim can be handled at $2.50 per ton, which is a great saving and means a wonderful profit in mining.
Such men as Hon. John Sparks, governor of the state of Nevada; Senator A. Livingston, Assistant State Treasurer Frank Wildes and H. B.
Westover, E. M., are among the directors of the East Comstock Wonder Mining Company. They would not connect themselves with anything
unless it was strictly meritorious. With such valuable properties and with such a management, the East Comstock Wonder Mining Company will
be a success. As a rule all mining investments are more or less of a risk, which of course every investor understands. The East Comstock Wonder
Mining Company, however, cannot be ranked with this class. All elements of chance have been eliminated. The Dana claim is a proven mine. It
is now producing ore that can be mined at a profit, and this fact alone makes the price ot the stock worth many times what is being asked.
The total capitalization of the East Comstock Wonder Mining Company is for 1,000,000 shares, fully paid and non-assessable, 500,000 of which
have been placed in the treasury, the balance being strictly pooled stock.

'i We are giving our clients a last opportunity of obtaining this security at 15 cents a share, but your order will have to be by telegraph, which you can send at our expense, providing your order is for not less than 500 shares.
EAST COMSTOCK WONDER will be listed at 20 cents a share, so that all who buy now will immediately make 33 1-3 per cent on their investment. We expect to make a world-wide reputation from the sale of this se-
curity as we feel sure that big profits will come to all stockholders in EAST COMSTOCK WONDER. Send in your order by telegraph or call at the office without delay. Installments of one-fifth down and the balance in the

THREE DAYS OF CAT SHOW
THIS WEEK
Every Kind of Feline, from Back
Fence Maria to Prize Pussies,
Will Compete for Ribbons
and Cups
"Cats, cats everywhere and not a oat
to can." Such will be the lament of the
small boy who manages to penetrate
the sacred precincts of the Southern
California Cat club's annual show at
Chutes park this week, for pussy will
be the center of attraction there, nnO
woe betide, the luckless youth whom;
heart yearns tor a little excitement via
the tin can on the cat's tail. Jealous
guardians of th-e. woolly, elawy boasts
will guard their pets from sacrilegious
hands, and the pats will shine In nil the
splendor of their white, black, yellow
and Bray fur.
The man who thinks that there li
nothing to the cat family except the
pestiferous brutes who siiiß luiK.-r.il
dirges on the back fence when the world
Is bathed In slumber— or rather i 1i 1 - try
ing to be bathed — has another guess or
two coming.
Long before such ii doubting indi
vidual began to oust a shadow 1 1 1« - eni
had things her own way. Way back 111
the days before "Little Egypt" v.is
made ji feature nf the midways ilp-v
existed a real Egypt where the vil
lagers thought that the cat waa the rfal
thing In the four-fouted line. Indei.-d,
so Imbued with this notion rlld they be
come that they appointed speclul prlems
whose duty it should be to soe thut the
cat, like its devotees, should never be
troubled with bail or tin cans, or un
friendly dogs, 01 anything else thvtt
mars the i - eful tenor of the present
day cat's existence.

"A SPIRITUAL WONDER"
IS TALMAGE'S TOPIC
ILLUSTRATEB WITH MIRACLE OF
THE BLIND
Uses Physical Infirmity as a Symbol
of Sin and Infers That the Power
That Can Cure or Remove U
Superhuman
"A Spiritual Wonder" wag the sub-
Ject of a sermon by Rev. Frank DeWltt
Talmage yesterday morning. In part
In- said:
"When the blind man's eyes were
opened, Christ performed a miracle
which no power on earth had ever been
able to do. lie was not an occullst,
who was cutting away a cataract
which, as a dark curtain, had been
dropped nver the eyeball of an old
man. He was not a charlatan who was
making a salve out of the mud to as
suage the Inflammation of the npthnl
mlc nerves, Hut he was a miracle
worker, who could Rive hearing to a
deaf and dumb man who had been
bom without any ear-drum, without
any sounding-board to catch the waves
of sound as thoy came surging .Into'the
Ivory veitlbulei of the oar. in other
words, Christ was Riving to this young
man of the east his eyesight, when
there was no visual organ there, when
the ocular nerves were gone. The work
Christ was doing for that young man's
eyea wai exactly what hp could do if
he put a new leg upon your body, after
your leg had been crushed in a railroad
accident and amputated by the sur
geon'l knife. Never since the world
was created, ur> to the time of Jesus,
hail any man ever received his sight
after he hud been born blind. This
miracle was a test case. Christ was
practically laying, 'If 1 can give eye
sight to this afflicted one, I can do
everything and anything, oh ye of lit
tle faith. 1
"If we use blindness or any other in
curable physical Infirmity as the sym
bol of sin, we have a right to Infer
that the power which can give or re
move Infirmity is a superhuman power,
and that the same power can eradicate
Mm. An old legend tells ua that Martin
Luther, when he was torn by remorse,
and anguishing over his past sins,
had a strange dream. At that time he
was very sick. While he law in his
bed he saw the evil one enter his room
with a huge acroll upon his back.
"With a demoniac leer, he suddenly
began to unroll it. The scroll seemed
to grow larger and larger, as it un
folded before Luther's eyes. Then, as
the tienii began to unroll nils toroH,
Luther began to read, Ami as he read
on he round out that thin long scyoll
wai the record of his paat evil life.
'There arc thy sins,' the ticiid chuckled.
"Aha, see the record of them Ih all
there. Hut .is Martin Luther read on.
suddenly a passage of scripture Mushed
into his iiiliui He raised himself upon
his »ick bed and said: 'O demon, you
have forgotten to put something In
thai record. The record is all Inn-.
but you have forgotten the one promise
which cancels all that ghastly list.
Write It there. Write It there, now:
"The blod of Jesus . Christ, his son,
cleanseth us from all slri." .'.. ¦¦':. :' '¦'-•
"No sooner did Luther spenk thus,
the old legend says: 'than the flend
gathered up his long, heavy scroll, and
with a wild cry of defeat, fled Into the
darkness of the night.' That may be
only a legend, but It is the consolation
of many a sin-burdened heart. Like
the blind man of the east, we have
been staggering along in the darkness
of our sins. But Jesus has come and
touched our eyes. Jesus has cleansed
us. Jesus has made a test case out of
our Bins. On account of his shed blood,
he has spoken to our repentant souls:
¦Thou art whole. Thou are whole. 1 Oh.
the wonderful miracle of the kindled
eyesight of the blind man of the east!
Oh, the divine grace which can cleanse
us from all sin!"

She Protests
"I think," saiil the women's rights
orator, "that husband and wife should
have an equal volre In the management
of household affairs."
" Nonsense!" exclaimed an auditor.
"Why, that rule would give my hus
tiii ml as much to nay as I have."
