WE DON'T ASK YOU TO O ANY
GUESSING as to what the Ethel is.
We will pay all your expenses to our
mines to make a personal examina-
Some reasons why the Ethel is a paying
investment:
1. THE ETHEL lias proved up two mines, is now Mocking out the ore for the
mill, and is proving up its third mine.
2. THE ETHEL owns (with one, exception) the only graphite mine in the west
for which ore bids have been received from wholesale dealers in various cities.
3. THE ETHEL will start the erection of a mill in January to treat this ore
and put it on the general market in towns and cities throughout the United States.
The cost of mining and milling this product does not exceed $ 5 per ton, while the
standard wholesale- ((notations are $25 to $160 per ton after milling, winch show
an ENORMOUS PROFIT. Vein is li feet thick and -1.000 feet long.
4. THE ETHEL owns 400 acres of rich mineral land in the three largest and
best mining districts in Colorado, and therefore does not have to depend on one kind
of ore nor on one mine.

7. THE ETHEL has a low capitafeatidn of 300,000 shares, which makes
each share many times as valuahle asimares in high capitalized companies.
8. THE ETHEL treasury sioeK'is the only stock that can he sold, as all director's
stock is hold iii escrow until the company is on a dividend paying basis, with not
less than $100,000, or surplus in the treasury. This impels the directors to con-
tinuous effort and careful management, and affords security for the legitimate
each shareholder's investment.
To ohtain funds for tire erection of two mill one to treat the lead, silver and zinc
.ores- also one to treat the graphite ore and provide additional equipment for our gold
and copper mines, we offer 20,000 shares of Treasury Stock at $5 PER SHARE,
after which the price will he advanced to $10 per share for the second allotment.
