MINES AND MINING.

For at least 80 days the American
Smelling & Refining company will re-
fuse to receive ores from all shippers
who do not have contracts. This is
because the company is already over
stocked with ores at its East Helena
plant from contract shippers, and has
40 room in which to store additional.
It is understood another reason for
this order is to be found in the unset
tied condition of the metal markets
in the east. The company has thou
sands upon thousands of dollars tied
up in ores bought, and further drops
in prices would mean that much more
loss. The order will not affect the
lumber of men employed.
The Black Jack mine at Corbin is
he scene of a reported copper, gold
Ind silver strike. The property is
owned by Helena and Great Falls
men. The strike was made on the

Home MADE MIXTURE
SAID TO BE INEXPENSIVE AND
EASILY PREPARED BY ANYONE.
Is Said to Promptly Relieve Backache
and Overcome Kidney Trouble and
Bladder Weakness, Though
Harmless, and Pleasant
to Take.

What will appear very interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from a New York daily paper, giving a
simple prescription, as formulated by a
noted authority, who claims that he
has found a positive remedy to cure
almost any case of backaehe or kidney
or bladder arrangement, in the follow
ing simple prescription, if taken before
the stage of Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well in a bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known authority, when asked
regarding this prescription, stated that
the ingredients are all harmless, and
can be obtained at a small cost from
any good prescription pharmacy, or the
mixture would be put up if asked to do
SO. He further stated that while this
prescription is often prescribed in
rheumatism Affections with splendid
results, he could see no reason why it
would not be a splendid remedy for
kidney and urinary troubles, and back
ache, as it has a peculiar action upon
the kidney structure, cleansing these
most important organs and helping
them to sift and filter from the blood
foul acids and waste matter which
causes sickness and suffering. Those
who suffer can make no mistake in
giving it a trial.

Il several worlds records, which is given

Bv a series Of photographs made on dry
land he has simpliied the method Of learn

amp stool and goes through the motions

Another phase Of swimming treated by
Daniels is the newest style of swimming
~ the back. OF late il has become a
rrcoznized event in all the big meets both
here and in England, so it's most important
POINTS should he mastered by all who in
lulge in the sport. Says Daniels:
The crawl stroke, which experts have
