Benton Mines.

The Advocates; For the week end
ing Sept. IA, Benton was the largest
producer of lead and zinc in the
Wisconsin district. During that week
377, 900 lbs. of zinc were shipped and
1890 lbs. of lead.
The lead market is down as low as
500 per thousand and some buyers
are refusing to make bids on lead at
all. In spite of this low price most OF
the lead producers are still at work
piling up ore ready to sell at the first
advance In price.
The Grant mill is producing consis-
tently but the company is not selling
any ore owing to the low price. All
the bins have been filled and they are
now piling up concentrates on the
ground.

KNEW HUMAN NATURE.
Logic of the Man Who FiddIed In the
Midst of a Flood,

When Davy Crockett was on his way
from his Tennessee home to Texas to
fight for the new republic he rode over
land with some chance friends from
Little Rock to Fulton. One day they
were startled by hearing the high notes
Of distant violin playing a rollicking
air. Putting spurs to their horses, the
men fastened toward the sound and
soon observed several others running
through the fields In the same direc-
ton. At last they came over the crest
Of a ridge in view of the river and be-
held the fiddler seated In the middle
Of the food in an almost submerged
buggy playing as fast as he could
shake the bow.
Hello, there! Turn backw shouted
the men who came through the. field.
II can't" replied the fiddler.
"But you've missed the ford. You'll
drownv
give known that for half an hour"
What are you going to do"
''Sit here till you chaps come out and
turn my horse the right way"
The horse was with difficulty keeping
his footing and seemed about to be
swept away. One Of the men who had
been attracted by the fddltng waded
out and by precarious way reached
the horses head and led him round to
the ford and back to the bank, the pas
senger fiddling all the way and wind
ing up with merry Jig.
what do you mean by sitting out
there fiddling in the face of death?"
demanded Crockett Of the rescued
stranger.
"WeH, colonel" said the fiddler, 81
am a student of human nature. When
I found l had missed the ford and
needed help, 1 set out to geo it. I
might have shouted myself hoarse and
no one out here would have paid the
slightest attention to me. But there
isn't a man west Of the Mississippi
who wouldn't come running at the
sound of q fiddle in the woods"
"And he was right" said Dayy, "for
there we were, the lot of us, our horses
all Of lather, for running to satisfy
our curiosity about that squeaking fid-
die in this out of the way place.

RHEUMATIC FOLKS!
Are You Sure Your Kidneys are
Well?


Many rheumatic attacks are due to
uric acid in the blood. But the duty
of the kidneys is to remove all uric
acid from the blood. It's presence
there shows the kidneys are inactive.
Don't daily with "uric acid solvents. "
You might go on till doomsday with
them, but until you cure the kidneys
you will never get we'll Doan's Kid
ney Pills not only remove uric acid i.
but cure the kidneys and then all dan
ger from uric acid is ended. Here is
a Mineral Point testimony to prove it..
Patrick Whalen, living in the south
ern part of Mineral Point, Wis, says:
81 have been troubled with rheuma-
tism and kidney trouble for eight or
ten years. The secretion from my
kidneys we're very thick and cloudy in
appearance and showed signs of a
sediment. I had great deal of pain
in the small of my back which afford
ed me misery. Learning of Doan's
Kidney Pills, I procured a box at
Ivey's Pharmacy and since taking
them | am stronger and better in every
way. 1t gives me pleasure to give
Doan's Kidney Pills my endorsement. "

SHUTDOWN DOCTORS.
A Glass That Is Peculiar to the Ma.
tional Capital.

A Class That Is Peculiar to the Ma
tionaI Capital.
Shutdown Doctors are an institution
peculiar to washington city. They are
an amiable company Of medical prac-
titioners who ply their trade only
after nightfall. Not that these gentle
men prefer darkness to light if they
had their d'ruthers, nor are their deeds
Of questionable complexion that looks
best in the shade. Shutdown doctors
have no ways that are dark or tricks
that are vain. They are as open as the
day that they may not utilize. If they
practice their profession by candle
light rather than by the sunshine,
that's Uncle Sans fault, not their
own. Shutdown doctors begin to get
busy only after 4:30 in the afternoon.
From 8 to that hour, poor souls, they
are holding their noses to the grind
stones over the government desks,
for one must live, don't you know,
however soaring ones scientific ambi-
ton, and Uncle Sans wages do come
In mighty regular and handy. So that
in q pigeOnhOle is the story of the
origin Of the struggling fraternity Of
shutdown physicians at the federal
capital.
There are thousands of instances.
Embryonic young physicians, with
their careers yet to carve, secure clerk
ships in some Of the governmental
departments of Washington in order to
keep the pot bubbling while they are
getting their medical education after
office hours. Their diplomas thus Ia
boriously achieved, they hang out their
shingles tentatively, holding fast, how
ever, to their government positions IN
til securely established professionally.
A job in the hand, you know, is worth
a whole city directory full of uncaptur-
ed patients. Never let go a sure thing
till you are sure Of a surer.-Washing-
