ALASKA. Southern Alaska has
been attracting considerable atten-
ton of late, by reason of the dis
covery that its lands are rich IN
productiveness. When our Govern
ment first purchased Alaska, con>
siderable unfavorablc comment, by
both press and statesmen, was
hear d, but today it is thought to
be a valuable acquisition. The
rents Of its seal fisheries paid to the
United States have already amount
ed to about one.quarter its original
cost, and the number of seals do not
appear to be diminished. Recently
We heard of an extraordinary yield
Of potatoes from that place. Alaska
is the home of the cranberry, and
that fruit is considered the very
finest in the market. We should
Judge the soil would be- suitable for
oats, rye, fax, and possibly barley.
1t should be able to produce about
the same as does the State OF Maine.
Who can say but this Alaska coun-
try may yet be thickly settled ore
In short space of timer 1t cer>
tainly has the appearance Of 1t.
Congress ought In justice to its res
idents provide Territorial form OF
government for Alaska, so, instead OF
might being the ruling principle,
law and order could be enforced,
which would then invite immigra-
ton within its borders, and aid IN
developing it's resources. No coun-
try, State or Territory can expect
to draw immigrants without being
able to assure them safe protection
in the enjoyment Of life, liberty
and property. For this purpose
Alaska needs q Territorial form oil
government.-West ShOre.

A Little Romance from Maine.

Auburn had sensation Saturday.
It was month ago when the school
boy and school girl acquaintance be
tween two of Auburn's children ripen-
ed into such degree of affection that
an elopement was planned with a
marriage in prospect. The boy is 16
years OF age and the girl but Is. They
left home IN secret, arrived at the sta
ton, unknown to their friends, and
were stopped from completing their
plans for departure only by the same
old reason that stops so many from
long journeys-lack of sufficient
funds for the TIP. The couple were
overtaken at the station and brought
back to their respective homes. The
young lady was sent from Auburn to
the care of friends IN Massachusetts,.
and the entire affair was supposed to

have been at an end. 1t was some
what of a shock to the parents of the
boy, Saturday morning, to find him
gone. He had taken his money and
some that was in the house, beside,
and started long before daybreak to
walk to the station. His parents dis
covered his absence at o'clock. Pur-
suit was made, and the boy was dis
covered at Danville junction, waiting
for the train that should take him
away. He acknowledged his inten-
ton of finding the girl, and going
where there was a possibility of their
marriage. Boston Journal.

THE TRUE INWARDNESS OF THE
THING.

Pure and rich blood is an acknowI-
edged necessity of both human and ami
NAL life. This is admitted by all medi-
dial men to be self-evident fact. Many
of the ailments to which the human
family are subject are well known to be
owing to an unhealthy condition of the
blood, and how to remedy this state of
affairs has for a long time occupied the
minds of the leading lights of the medi-
cal profession.
Iron is a natural constituent of the
blood, and is to be considered as a ne
cessity in enlivening this, the stream of
life.
The effects of iron are best seen in
conditions of the system in which there
is a relative want of activity in the
nerves and muscles. Under its use the
blood becomes richer, the digestive or
fuller and stronger, the skin assumes a
healthy tint, the lips and cheeks grow
more fiOrid. the temperature of the body
is increased, and the muscular strength
greatly invigOrated.
The diseases in which iron is especial
ly serviceable are those which come
from want of richness in the blood
strength in the muscles and tone in the
nerves, such as weakness, inactivity,
depression, loss of appetite, dyspepsia,
indigestion, neuralgia, hysteria, etc.
The use Of iron cannot be too strong
ly urged. Physicians for long time
have conceded that iron was absolutely
necessary, but the trouble has been that
it seemed impossible to prepare it so that
it would have no injurious effects. Each
new discovery was hailed with delight
by the profession, only to be thrown
aside in a short time as failure, and it
was not until the discovery of Browns
Iron Bitters that iron was SO prepared
that it would readily and thoroughly
assimilate with the blood and would not
blacken the teeth, cause headache, con-
stipation or other evil effects caused by
every other iron preparation. Browns
Iron Bitters is made only by the Brown
Chemical Company. of Baltimore, and
contains no whiskey or other injurious
ingredients.

More recently the pains had become more severe, so
much so that it was with difficulty that was able to

Remedy about three weeks ago. and its instantaneous
benefits are wonderful, for have had pains in my
