SUPREME COUR I
SUSTAINS THE
OIL FLOTATION
PATENTS

The Supreme Court of the United
States this week affirmed the judge
ment Of the circuit court of appeals
IN the litigation involving the atent
to the Minerals Separation Company
to the use of pine oil in the flotation
process. This suit was primarily
against the Butte and Superior COM
pany, but number of other corpora
tions were involved in the litigation.
The decision of the Supreme Court af-
firms the right of the Minerals Sepa-
ration company to collect royalty on
it's patent, the lower court having as
sessed this royalty at $10,000,000
against the Butte and Superior, and
about $60,000,000 against all the op-
Grating companies at Butte. While
the payment of this bagetelle would
not put much of a crimp in news
paper man, it will be found rather dif-
ficult to dig up the money among the
bevy of mining companies and some
of them will probably go out of busi-
ness. Some of the COMPANIES had
taken time by the forelock and laid
away the necessary amount for roy
alties, but the larger operators pre-
ferred to fight the flotation company.
AS the use of oil and other sub
stances has been in existence many
years before the Minerals Separation
company fellows ever heard about the
subject of saving meals in oil froth
it does not look right to give these
fellows strangle holt on the mineral
industry. A woman at first perfect
ed, or at least found the way, to use
oil in the floating of minerals, but
the other fellow not only gets the
credit but the dough for successfully
applying the treatment. 1t 10 much

similar to the much discussed and
litigated McArthur-Forrest cyani1e
treatment of ores. Cyanide was used
in the labratory many years before
either of these patents were born, yet
they applied the process to the COM
mercial treatment Of ores and really
got away with the royalty part of it
until someone tried conclusions with
them. Some one will find simpler
way than the use of pine oil and the
Minerals Separation will be thing of
the past, although they will have TAX
en- the cream from the mining COM
pany's milk.

PLAIN QUESTIONS TO VIROQUA
PEOPLE
Every Viroqua Reader Will Admit the
SOundness of the Logic


Would Viroqua people recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills as they do if the
medicine We're not reliable? Would
they confirm their statements after
years have elapsed if their experiences
did not show the remedy to be de-
serving of it? Statements like the
following must carry conviction to the
mind of every reader.
Mrs. Martha Mason, N. Main ST.,
Viroqua, says: 81 suffered from dull.
nagging backaches and sharp pains
across my loins. l had a constant
headache and a tired, languid feeling
in the morning. was annoyed by
dizzy spells and could hardly attend
to my homework My kidneys We're
weak and the kidney secretions were
in bad shape. Doan's Kidney Pills
regulated the action of my kidneys
and relieved the aches ind pains in
my back. l was rid &c the headaches
and dizzy spells, too, and that tired
feeling left me-"
STEADFAST CONFIDENCE
Over six years later Mrs. Mason
said: "All / have ever said in praise
of Doan's Kidney Pills still holds
good. l still have good opinion of
Them"
Price zoe, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Mason had. Foster Milburn Co,

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the car. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an IN
famed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
fntamed you have a rumbling sound or inn
perfect hearing, and when IT is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
viii be destroyed forever. Many cases OF
eeafness are caused by catarrh. which is
an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hairs Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces Of the
aystem.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine Cir-

SOME BOOT AND SHOE LORE
How to Polish Footqear When Damp;
Trees Should Be Used TO Relieve
the Pinch.

Il sometimes happens that one wish
es 10 polish ones shoes when they are
damp. II Is impossible then to get
good polish and yet you have not the
time to wait until they are thoroughly
dry. If a few drops Of parafiin are
placed on cloth and this is then rub
bed over the leather there will be no
trouble. Apply the polish In the usual
way thereafter. and the result will be
most satisfactory.
II new shoes do not naturally take
to polish simply take half lemon,
rub the leather with II. and then stand
aside TO dry. After this treatment a
nice polish may be secured with little
effort.
On the first few occasions Of polish
ing new brown shoes apply the polish
very literally. This will secure 4
handsomely deep tone that will make
the shoes very attractive throughout
the rest Of their "young lives"
II goes without saying that shoe
trees should always be used. II pays
these days to use a bit OF care In pre-
serving the good looks and good shape
OF ones shoes. A shoe really never is
well taken care Of IL shoe trees are not
used. Tissue paper may be used for
the same purpose IL stuffed tightly In

II boot or shoe plnches, try this !:
While the shoe is on the foot or on a
tree, take a small piece Of cloth wrung
out OF very hot water and put this over
the part that is giving trouble. The
pinching will disappear entirely after
this treatment.
