da Becoming
Big Copper Country
„ Ottawa, Canada—Canada Is becom
ing one of the great copper produc
ing countries of the world and ex
perts believe the present mines rep
resent only a small per cent of the
i potential copper resources of the na
tion. There is reason to think that
one of the richest copper fields in
Canada, so far only slightly exploit
ed, awaits development in the lake
region of northern Manitoba.
Copper production in Canada in
1918 amounted to 117,415,829 pounds
■which at the average price in New
York of 24.628 cents per pound was
worth $29,163,450 as compared with
109,227,332 pounds valued at $29,687,-
989 at the average price of 27.17 cents
per pound in 1917, an Increase of 1.8
per cent in value. This is aocording
to a recent report on mineral produc
tion by John McLetsh, B. A., chief
<of the Division of Resources and Sta
tistics of the Canadian government.
The 1918 production is shown to have
been greater than the record produc
tion of 1916 which was 117,150,028
pounds.
The production of pyritic ores in
Quebec was 5,869,649 pounds valued
at $1,445,577; in Ontario 47,047,801
pounds valued at $11,586,932; British
Columbia 62,858,628 pounds valued at
$15,480,823; Yukon Territory 300,000
pounds valued at $73,884. The Pas
mining district produced over 2,000,-
000 pounds. The falling oft in the
Yukon was due chiefly to the closing
down of the Pueblo mine and the high
cost of labor and supplies.

Columbus' New Organ
One of World's Largest
Ohio—Working night
and day, shifts of workmen are
rushing the installation of the Meth
odist centenary celebration's $50,000
pipe organ, one of the largest in the
world, in time for its dedication,
June 13, it was announced by Wil
liam J. Kraft, director of the cen
tenary music. A concert of instru
mental and vocal selections on that
date has been prepared for the in
augural recital of the organ in the
coliseum and the premiere of the
trombone choir.
Transformation of the interior of
the coliseum has gone on apace with
the building of the organ setting
and wind chambers, and Columbus
residents are due for a surprise at
the changed appearance of the big
auditorium. A mighty proscenium
flanked by pipes now fills the west
end of the coliseum, while a big
echo organ has been built in the east
gallery. The concert, a week before
the opening date of the centenary
celebration, should prepare Colum
bus residents for the big exposition.
"The celebration organ is one of
the largest in existence," said Dr.
Kraft, while supervising the instal
lation. "It has ninety-eight stops,
many of them on high pressure.
There are three pressures, twelve,
fifteen and twenty inch pressures.
Some idea of the need of high pres
sure is conveyed by saying that some
of the wood pipes are two feet in
diameter, the wood being two inches
thick. There are about 4,000 pipes
in this organ, which also has chimes
and harp attachments.
"The builder of this organ, M. P.
Moeller, of Hagerstown, Md., has in
formed me that he knows of no
bigger organ built especially for a
religious organization. There are
three separate blowing plans, one
either side of the west end of the
building, each of seven and one-half
horsepower. The pipes range from
a midget of three-quarters of an
inch in length and one-quarter of
an inch in diameter to the largest,
which is thirty-two feet long.
"The control and operation of the
instrument is wholly electric, and
the matter of wiring is not one of
the least items—more than twenty
one miles of wire has been installed."
The organ solos selected by Dr.
Kraft with which to dedicate the
new centenary celebration organ are
as follows:
Rhapsody, R. G. Cole; intermezzo,
J. Callaerts; Le Cygne, Camille St.

PRAISE
The late Sir Herbert Tree was per
suaded in New York to attend a mat
inee given by a tragedian of the old
superdemonstrative school.
The tragedian distinguished himself
under Tree's .observant eye. He
roared he gnashed his teeth, he tore
about the stage like a wild Prussian
when the bread ration is reduced.
Between the acts Sir Herbert visited
him. He lay back in an armchair in
a profuse perspiration. He looked up
anxiously from the towel with which
he .was drying himself—he looked up
hoping for a word of praise; but Tree
only said, in his most flippant and
airy tones:
"How well your skin acts!" —Reho-
both Sunday Herald.
NO NEED TO BE THIN,
SCRAWNY OR SALLOW
If you are thin and want to be
plump; if you have wrinkles in your
face that you are not proud of; if
the skin is sallow or subject to
pimples or blackheads, take Mi-o-na
stomach tablets for two weeks and
notice the change.
The majority of the thin people
are thin because the stomach does
not perform its duties properly. It
is not secreting sufficient of the
natural digestive juices and in con
sequence does not extract from the
food enough nutritive matter to
nourish every part of the body.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets^are in
tended to build up thq stomach so
that it will act properly and extract
trom the food, the elements necessary
to form flesh.
If you are thin try two weeks treat
ment of Mi-o-na stomach tablets
they are small, easily swallowed and
are sold on the guarantee of money
back if they do not overcome chronic
indigestion, acute or chronic, stop
stomach disturbance, belching, heart
burn, sour stomach, and any after
dinner distress.

"SPRING OPENINGS" IN
PARIS NOT CONFINED TO
GOWNS AND MILLINERY
Sewer System Has Joined Ranks of "Sights" Y. M. C. A. Has-
Made Possible For Americans in France
Paris, May 30. —The "spring
opening" of a sewer system might
not be looked on everywhere us a
social event, invitations to which
would eagerly be sought by distin
guished guests, but tne formal open
ing of the Paris sewers has been
such an affair. Admission wa3 by
card only and important American
Army officers were eager applicants
for the cards.
The sewers of Paris, which are fa
mous in both history and lierature,
haxe been closed since the beginning
of the world war. In the meantime,
thousands of Americans have applied
in vain for permission to inspect the
sewers—some of them civil engi
neers interested in the structural
problems worked out in the system,
some of them students of literature
who wished to inspect the places in
which "Jean Valjean" hid from in
justice.
Since the war ended, sightseeing
has been one of the biggest jobs of
the welfare societies in Paris. The
Y. M. C. A. alone entertains 40,000
members of the A. E. F. every week
with sightseeing trips in and near
the city, and has succeeded in hav
ing many places, closed to the gen
eral public, opened for the benefit
of the A. E. F. The "Y" now has
succeeded in getting permission to
guidq limited parties through the
sewers. None but engineers are ad
mitted now.

PERSHING'S FOREFATHERS
The Pershing family history shows
that one or more of the Pershing
namea are Inscribed in every war in
which this country fought from the
Forbes campaign for the relief of
Fort Pitt in 1776, to the time that
General John J. Pershing led the
Americans in France, and helped to
carry out the wish of one of his
ancestors to "redeem Alsace Lor
raine," The Rev. Dr. Justus N. Per
shing, of Greenburg, Pa., cousin of
the general, has a letter written by
one of his ancestors relating the
story.
The Pershing family fought in a
war in 1744, but that was when the
family was located in Kehe, Alsace-
Lorraine, when Emperor Charles call
ed out his men against the Magyars.
All able-bodied men between the ages
of sixteen and fifty years were called
on to defend their lands against the
Austrians. The? head of the Pershing
family had no love for the emperor,
and saved enough money to send his
son to America. He scattered gold
coins under his hearthstone, and in
a letter directing his son to them
said he hoped the money would en
able him to reach America hnd that
one of his forefathers would be able
to return and redeem Alsace Lor
raine. The boy reached America, and
later, on his urgings, the family mi
grated.—Detroit News.

RHEUMATISM
Physician Believes a Genuine Rem
edy For the Disease Has
Been Found
Rheuma. the wonderful rheumatism
remedy, now sold by all good drug
gists, gives quicker and more lasting
relief than other remedies costing
many times as much.
Rheuma acts with speed; it brings
in a few days the relief you have
prayed for. It antagonizes the pois
ons that cause agony and pain in the
j'ints and muscles and quickly the
torturing soreness completely disap
pears.
Read what a reputable physician
says about Rheuma: "I have made
a most careful investigation of the
formula employed in the manufacture
of Rheuma, and I heartily recommend
it as a remedy for all forms of rheu
matism. I find Rheuma far in ad
vance of the methods generally em
ployed in the treatment of rheuma
tism. and altogether different in com
position from the remedies usually
prescribed."—Dr. M. C. Lyons. This
certainly should give any rheumatic
sufferer confidence to try this harm
less and Inexpensive remedy.
If you have rheumatism In any
form don't delay—try Rheuma today.
