GRI LY STOCK Affords sin opportunity for profitable investment that cannot be equaled in the Sumpter District. The mine is now beintf actively operated and has 1 cached a degree of development practically assuring the stability of the mine. The'lodge, carrying high values in gold, copper and silver, is over 40 feet in width. Work is being rapidly pushed, tunneillng and sinking on the ledge, blocking out ore and adding to the pay dumps, and it may be expected that the mine will be a producer and the company a dividend payer at an early date. Every dollar realized by the company fiom the sale of treasury stock is being used for improving the property. The sale of stock will be con tinued until the mine is a pioduccr,. As development progresses the price of stock will be advanced. Seciue this stock now at 10 cents. That it will be woith its par value withjn 12 months is a conservate es timate.
