IN WISCONSIN,.

In the school house in Belleville.
Wis, few evenings ago, upon motion
OF the Catholic priest, the Methodist
minister was elected president OF the
community's social center for the COM
ing winter.
Then three basket ball teams were
formed, including the priest, the
minister, the blacksmith, the editor.
farmer, the keeper Of the village restau-
rant, dentist, a clothier, teamster, q
druggist, garage owner, the banker.
the saloonkeeper, hardware merchant
and house painter.
They differed in religion, in politics
in income, in social status about as
widely as men en- differ. But in the
common school building, in the free
democracy Of the center, they agreed to
lay aside their differences for the novel
purpose OF discovering how much good
fellowship there was in meeting to-
gether, now and then, as EQUALS. AZ
brothers.
In the democracy of play, in the
democracy of frank, fair discussion of
public questions, they are finding ont.
these differing men of Belleviie, that.
as human beings, they're amazingly
alike, once you get below the surface.
And out of this agreeable discovery
will come, for Belleville, more tolerance
more kindliness of feeling, more give
and take than it had ever known before.
Even when they shall differ agaiu-as.
OF course, they often wilt won't be-
with as much bitterness, as much
bigotry. as much mean hate as of yore
It's wonderful solvent, is brother
hood.

Jackson, Miss, December II.

Jackson, Mss, December II.
Mayor S. j. Taylor's plan to rid
Jackson of the winter visitors who
have come as unlimited guests, name
ly, hobos, tramps and buns, has
created a good deal of interest.
Briefly, the mayor is going to put
every Weary Willie" who comes this
way to work. He will see that all
of them are fed and given shelter, but
they must pay for their keep" by
getting out on the streets.
There is job down at the police
headquarters for somebody. 1t is that
of corporal of the hobo squad, a
newly created position. The mayor
says he is going to employ a man to
oversee the work of the buns, as they
are sent out each morning to the
streets to repair broken surfaces, cut
grass or clean alleys.
Every policeman now has orders to
take up" every tramp and escort
him to headquarters. The tramp will
be given the option of working for
the city for bread and shelter or leave
town. But the ten-day rule will pre-
vail, and every bum must work at
least that length of time. After the
first day day if he wants to leave he
will not be allowed to do so.

LISTEN, DAUGHTER.

Dad knows that Christmas is COM
ing and so does your mother and your
brothers and sisters. And we all know
just what will please you most. So,
from present appearances, you are not
to be disappointed. But you seem to
have the wrong point of view about
Christmas, honey, and | want to set
you right. Christmas is tho season for
giving. Get that? The real happiness
lies in planning what you are going to
do for others and then doing it. The real
Christmas spirit fills only those whose
thoughts are upon the happiness they
hope to bestow upon their friends and
upon the unfortunates who think they
have 10 friends. It's not so much what
you give as to whom you give. There's
a poor woman living around the corner.
No one is thinking of what she would
like for Christmas. She'd be the
second happiest woman in town if you
4were TO walk in on her early Christmas
morning with a gift o. something warm
for her to wear. The happiest woman
would be my little girl who brings it.
There is old Black jim, who sweeps
and carries out the ashes. Never
thought of him? Well think of him to
the extent of pair of warm mittens.
Knit them yourself. Don't know how?
Your mother will start you. 1t will be
twice as much fun for you and old Jim's
look of gratitude wnen you give them
to him will repay you more than all
the fine phrases of ali the young squirts
to whom you send neckties they won't
wear and pincusions they won't use.
Try Dads prescription, Daughter, and
you'll be the happiest girl in town
Christmas day. You will find that it
isn't getting what you want for Christ
mas that makes for real Joy. You'll
discover something. That's right.
Start now.

HOW WE GET THE
NEWS.

Day before yesterday a perfectly nice
lady called US up and with tears in her
voice reproved US for not mentioning
the fact that she had a friend visiting
her last week. We told her that she
had not let US know anything about it
and that therefore, We did not know
that she had a visitor. Then she said,
aWell you should have known. I
thought you were running news
paper" Wouldn't that rattle your
Stats? Some people think that an editor
ought to be cross between Argus and
Anna Eva Fay. They seem to think
that our i've senses are augmented by a
sixth that lets US know everything that
happens, even II we see. hear feel,
taste or smell it not. Dear lady, editors
are only human or at least, almost hu-
man. If you have q friend visiting you, if
you are going away, or aave returned
from visit out Of town. If Johnnie falls
and breaks his arm, If your husband
chops bis toe instead Of stick of wood,
ii anything happens that makes you
glad, or sad, happy, OF mad. call US up.
Tell u.s. about u. That's the way to get
|it In the paper.

IMPOSSIBLE.

1t is said that the Kaiser has cut off
the ends of his well-known and justly
famous moustache. " don't believe
it. 1t is an invention of the enemy.
Without that mustache with soaring
ends he wouldn't be the same old
Kaiser. One can imagine Buffalo Bill
with close shave, or Ebert Hubbard
with a hair cut, or Jham Lewis with
Galway sluggers, or that Baltimore
clothing chap without his lambrequins
or Joe Cannon without his joecaunons,
but as for the Kaiser dehorning his
moustache-well, there amt no such
animal.

"The farmer today is entirely differ
ent from the farmer Of yesterday, J"
said Secretary C. N. McIlvaine, of the
South Dakota State Fair, sand really
believe that the country newspaper have
the greatest aid to the farmers and
made them what they are today. There
is no better or quicker way to get an
education thar to read the papers. II
man is away from his home town his
home paper comes to him like long
lost friend. 1t just seems to me, when
read my home paper, as though | was
shaking hands with chum. / think
the articles written by Peter BRADFORD
have done more for the farmer than
any series of articles l have ever read
Have you read his article on political
Preach ers?'-It is one Of ihe best he
ever wrote. Every farmer and every
farmers wife should read it. It's

dents of the kind are teld by those who
were close to them.

At that time, The FIRST rumors of 4
strike in southeastern Missouri be-
came current, and in anticipation OF
this threatened event sellers became
reluctant and the market developed a
ed to 4iac, new York basis, and
when the strike was actually declared
on August 10. the market was further
advanced to 1915.
A curious situation developed. inso-
far as tho curtailed deliveries Of
southeastern Missouri established
prices in ST. Louis at the New York
level. and in some Instances even
somewhat higher The strike was set
tied at the beginning of September.
with the result that outside sellers
again became aggressive and readily
took business at below the established
quotations of the American Smelling
and Refining company. The latter re-
duced its price in rapid succession on
october to 460c, on October to 450c
and on October Is to 435c.
These continual reductions necessar~
lily made consumers cautious in COW
ering their requirements. Buying was
done on hand to- mouth scale and
lead was obtainable at considerable
concessions from the quoted prices of
the largest seller A reduction was
made by it on November &c to 4,25c.
which was quickly followed by further
reductions on December to 41oc, and
on December 8 to 4c.
Considering the present state Of the
European market, the level thus
reached must be considered low one.
the more so as 1t Is approaching dan
gerously close to the point when it
becomes improbable for some Of the
largest mines in this country to pro-
duce As is usual at this season of the
year, consumption was not very brisk.
but speculation took hold and consid-
erable purchases for this account were
made.
The producers outside of the largest
interest withdrew entirely from tho
market, In consequence Of which all
most the entire business was turned
over to the American Smelling anil
Refining company. The quantities
which were ordered from it became so
! large that 1t was forced to advance It's
price, which was established at 4.10c
on December "a, and at Also on De-
cember 20, The year closed with the
market firm at the latter figure for
New York delivery, and about 405 to

The Lead Market in 1913
NEnsIncerIng ana Mining JournaD


With the passing ot the new tariff
law, the intrenchment which made the
American lead market practically in
dependent of that Of the rest of the
world, was partially broken down and
the reduction in the duty Of approXi-
mately 20 per cent to % per cent ad
yalorem will mean that the American
lead market win be sensitive and in
fluenccd by the occurrences in the lead
markets of the rest of the world. By
reason of the continuous political dis
turbances in Mexico, considerable
percentage of its lead production has
been withheld from the European
market, thereby creating scarcity Of
lead abroad and forcing prices to a
level considerably above the average
for the last 10 years. This affected
the American market. insofar as 1t
pean refined lead into this country
even at the reduced rate of the new
tariff.
The year 1919 opened with lead
selling at around $4.15 at st, Louis
and about $3.50 at New York. Busi-
ness at these prices, which We're con-
sidered low In comparison with those
ruling during the summer of 1912, was
active and buying by consumers on a
good scale. The market remained at
around this level until the latter part
of April, when buying became SO in
sistent that the largest interest was
forced to advance its price to $3.50
New York.
Advantage was taken of the higher
prices by. outside sellers to dispose of
their anticipated production at some
what below the fixed schedule Of the
American Smelling and Refining com
pany, with the result that the latter
again reduced Its price about the be-
ginning of May to s4.35, New York
