'•Going into a decline." How often do we hear this expression. What does it mean? It mems thac people are losing flesh, growing thin, wasting.

The way to remove this condition is to improve the digest iou. The condition arises from an inability to eat and digest food. In fact food does more harm than good because it ferments and putrefies in the stomach, developing poisonous substances which when absorbed causes various disorders.

What is required is that the stomach be made to perform its duties. The Shaker Digestive Cordial is a food already digested and a digester of foods as well. It will make the stomach healthy. Get a book from the druggist aud read aboutit.

GOLD EATING WATER

SPARKLING LIQUID CHARGED WITH CYANIDE OF POTASSIUM.

Millions In the Yellow Metal Recovered by Percolation—A Simple but Interesting Process, With Results Which Are

Nothing: Leas Than Marvelous,

It is not generally known, even in California, that millions of dollars in glittering gold are annually taken from rude heaps of base looking quartz by the gentle flowing of crystal water over huge piles of broken rocks that contain the precious metal, but such is the fact. "The process of robbing the earth of its gold has now been reduced to such a fine point," said Professor Price, "that the gentle flowing of water over the ore gleans it of its golden treasures, and this works well in cases where the old chloride and other methods are not so useful."

But the water of which Professor Price spoke is not so pure as it looks, though the eye could never distinguish it from that which is dipped by the old oaken bucket from a well in the deep tangled wild wood. The water used by miners in bringing gold from piles of mineral bearing quartz is charged with a simple chemical which has the potency to dissolve gold and hold it in solution. In truth, the sparkling liquid which flows over hundreds of tons of quartz, trickles through the mines and seeks its levol, laden with gold, is charged with a deadly poison, cyanide of potassium, a drug which ferrets out the minutest particles of the yellow metal, dissolves them and brings the precious burden to the vats for conversion into refined gold again.

The cyanide process is as noiseless and unerring as the laws of gravitation, doing its work as quietly as "the majestic dance of the hours," unhindered by darkness or weather, by disasters of field or flood.

The state mining bureau of California was one of the first in the United States to investigate the merits of the cyanide process, and since the earliest investigations the method has found extensive application. It is so interesting that its results are nothing less than marvelous. This method of extracting both gold and silver from ores is based on the fact that even a very weak solution of cyanide of potassium dissolves gold and silver, forming respectively "auro potassic cyanide" and "argento-potassic cyanide," in the language of the chemists.

This interesting process consists of treating the ores with a weak solution of potassium cyanide, usually by allowing the solution to percolate through the ore, or by agitating a mixture of the ore and solutiou. When this part of the operation is completed, the solution is separated from the solid material, and the gold and silver are precipitated in a metallic fonn. The process is modern in its application, though it has long been known that cyanide of potassium would "eat gold. During the last five years, however, the process has been introduced into almost every goldfield in Calfornia and elsewhere, and more than $20,000,000 have been recovered by the genllo flowing of waters charged with the magical chemical over heaps of ore. Aside from the tin Toughness of the permeating.water method, its economy is a marked feature in mining. It is in great favor with the gold mining companies of New Zealand and at Johannesburg, Africa, as well as in California.

One of the most advantageous features of the cyanide method is that it can be applied to many gold aud silver ores generally called "rebellious" or "refractory. The rebellious ore is placed in a vat for percolation, and the solution is run preferably from the bottom by a pipe, rising slowly through the ore. The solution containing gold is carried through precipitating appliances into the final reservoir, where, robbed of its wealth of metal, it may be repumped into ore vats and again used for searching out the coveted metal.

One of the curious things about the solution is that a total percentage not stronger than an eighth of 1 per cent will carry away the gold almost as well as fluid of greater strength.

Precipitation is effected by the use of fine pieces of zinc, so arranged that when the rich waters flow over them the fine gold clusters in rich deposits over the zinc, for which it has an affinity. The gold which thus deserts the waters of cyanide deposits itself in the form of fine dust on the plates of zinc. The percentage of gold extracted by this process ii- very largo. A large parcel of fine sulphnrets from the Utica mines yielded an average of 93.18 per cent of the gold vahv.1 under the cyanide treatment, and similar results have been experienced elsewhere in the state. The cyanide plants at being extended, and the noiseless process is everywhere becoming popular. :i Francisco Chronicle.

Tho Nut Diet.

It is evident hv many straws noticed in a general reading of periodica] and newspaper literature that the next fad of the dietists is to be nuts. All the scientific cooking and health food authorities are urging with increasing persistence the value of this natural food and giving receipts for various nut flours, from which different varieties of bread cake may be made that are nutritious and of medicinal value in certain ailments. And now we learn that "Miss Ellen S. Atkins, a talented London woman who lost a spendid contralto voice four years ago from an attack of grip, has completely recovered her vocal piowers through persisting in a fruit and nut diet for a year and a half."—New York Times.
