PLATINUM FOUND
Recently in assaying a copper
ore from Karla Bay, I detected
the presence of platinum—fur
ther invesitgation showed it to 1
be present in quantities varying]
from a trace to .132 oz., per ton '
(present quotation If44.00 per j
ounce). My attention was call
ed to platinu mferou's copper
ore from the Clarance straits j
side of Kasaan peninsula an
assay showed $1-80 per ton
platinum. This was confirmed
by Hawkins. Karla Bay platin
um confined by Prof. Hall at
Columbia University. These
points are several miles from
one another. Both arc in alter
ed peridote. That platinum is
wide-spread is apparently evi
dent. The Bureau of Mines
has asked to be kept informed
and if further results warrant
they will make a special inves
tigation.

Drug Store Mo-dies:
“A TRAGEDY OF ERRORS”
When a druggist makes a mistake in putting up
medicine it is not a laughing matter. Error has
no place in the pharmacist's vocabulary. We
crossed it out of ours at the start. No danger of
carrying home the wrong package.
