TRUTH TRIUMPHs.
Johnson City Citizens Testify for the
Public BENEFIT.

A truthful statement of Johnson
City citizen, given in his own words
should convince the most skeptical
about the merits of Doan's Kidney
Pills. If you suffer from backache
nervousness, sleeplessness, urinary
disorders or any form of kidney ills,
use tested kidney medicine.
A Johnson City citizen tells of
Doan's Kidney Pills.
Could you demand more convincing
proof of merit?
Henry Rogerson, .1O4 w. Maple St,
Johnson City. Tenn, says: my back
ached me and there were times when
/ could hardly straighten after stoop-

by weak kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills,

UNITED STATES LACKS
TIN DEPOSITS.

Tin DEPOSIIS'
Tin is one of the few metals that are
abundant in some other parts of the
world but not abundant in the United
States, according to the United States
Geological survey An equivalent of
only "a short tons of tin ore, carrying
so per cent metallic tin, valued at
$36, $40, was produced in the United
States during 1913. The largest guam
tity of tin was taken out on Buck
Creek, Alaska.
The Federated Malay States (refer-
red to as the Straits, or Straits Settle
ments) produce by far the greatest
quantity of tin, and nearly all of it
comes from alluvial deposits, only a
little being obtained from veins. Dur
ing 1913 the shipments amounted to
56,142 short tons, against 54,231 tons
in 1912. The Federated Malay States
produce much more tin than any other
country, and the output is practically
all from placers. Dredging is now an
important and growing mode of tin
mining.
The English output from Cornwall
is estimated by the Mining Journal,
London, at 5000 long tons $500 short
tons). The Chinese shipments from
Hongkong were reported as 4,3S5
short tons (116.075 slabs of 112 pounds
each). The Mining Journal. London.
credits Nigera with production of
3.577 tons, and South Africa with an
equivalent of 2,070 tons of metallic tin.
The Bolivian ore. which it is now
proposed to smelt in the United
States to supply the war shortage, is
all derived from veins, and that coun-
try is by far the largest producer Of
lode tin.
The value of tin imports for 1913
amounted to SAT 1896. $50. The imports
of tin for consumption were the third
largest on record and amounted to
about 40.S per cent of the worlds pro-
duction.

The second bedrock is about 150 feet from the surface, and the dirt is of formation quite different in appearance from that of the first bedrock, indicating that the bed of the creek had been much lower at one time and that great slide from the hill caused the change. The operators expect to open up both claims this winter as much as possi

DeIlberating less than one minute, the Jury in the case of the United States vs Thomas H. White, on trial before Judge Fuller at Fairbanks on a charge of incest brought in verdict of not guilty, and thereby exonerated the defendant. The closing hours of the trial were the most dramatic ever witnessed in a court in this division, and when the verdict was rendered expressions of approval could be heard in all parts of the court room. Although sen sational in its nature, the charge against the defendant and the trial of the case were made doubIy so on account of the com planant and principal witness for the prose cutlon being the sen of the accused.
