From a Mnrhl Ciittr
To the Editor:
A friend handed In the Isime of
Mnroh 14. IMS, regarding the Wash-
lnston monument. My father, J. H.
Ruaaell, art out the flrat stone there
for the B. F. Dowell house In the
east part of Jacksonville In crystal
white marble. While we lived on
Coleman Creek back of Oass Burg In
1860. Thla la about three mllea from
Herb Coleman's at Blue Rock. He had
a marble saw mill between two tress
for the sides of the rain to run
against, but the wind would not let
the saw run smooth, so he cut the
tops off and put a plate there. It
waa while there that mother com
menced carving. Her first piece was
wild rose buds and leaves, patterned
from a bush close to the shed. While
papa was working for Dowell, he
moved us to Grandpa Hills (now
Junction l, and went to John Dny'a
River Gold Rush. He was gone about
18 months, then returned and raised
tobacco on some land Just west or
the Junction. Later we moved ta Ash
land, on Poverty Hill, where our old
homeslte Is.
One of the first large slabs of the
crystal white marble Is Orandpa
Isaac Hill s stone In the Hill ceme
tery near Junction, later known as
King's Burial Place. This is now
owned. I think, by Barron.
His motherst marker Is made of
one of the first pieces sawed In the
Ashland shop. Mother carved and
lettered the stone almost 70 years
ago. I commenced tending saws at
8 years of age, 70 years ago.
The first crystal white must have
come off the top of marble halls, as
they hauled It down on a "Llzzard
A" forked oak with plases across It.
Later, working down near whero I
wotild Judge Is Jones. Bros, now and
the lime kilns.
The only name i can remember is
John Johns, as I rode my white pinto
pony without rope or bridle, guiding
her with a switch. Maybe some of
the boys may remember me that way.
Lots of marble Is In Jacksonville.
Ashland. Phoenix (then Gass Burg
cemetery). Father sold In Douglas
county and Josephine county. At one
time he hsd over 100 orders, mostly
slabs 1 ft. by 1 In. thick, and 3 ft.
high for S25. Here In Yreka are slabs
over 60 yeara old from tse same quar
ry, free from moss, and the polish la
as smooth as ever. There was no
gloss finish then; Just fine grit and
home work. I have a cross here,
mother said I cut when I was 12, I
can give the history of the transpor
tation from the quarry to the home
' mill In Ashland, if you wish.

Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn
If you are troubled with coma or
callouses, do not run the risk of
blood poison by paring them. Statis
tics show that many infectlona have
occurred from this seemingly Inno
cent practice of paring corns.
Simply go to your druggist and get
a few cents worth of Ice-Mint, rub
a little on any painful corn or cal
lous. Immediately the pain will dis
appear and In a short time the corn
or callous will loosen and lift off eas
ily with the fiaera root and all
leaving the surrounding akin In a
healthy normal condition.
This, together with the fact that
toe-Mint overcomes auch affections,
as sore, tired, aching, puffed or burn
ing feet and makes them cool, easy
and comfortable, Is probably respon
sible for the hearty endorsement giv
en it by druggists.
To rid onea feet of every hard
corn, soft corn, oorn between the toes
or painful callouses In such a pleas
ant and safe way, makes It seem the
height of folly for anyone to pare a
corn and people are warned to stop
it.
