To Cure Catarrh

Do not depend upon snuffs, lnhalants
or other local applications. Catarrh is
a constitutional disease, and can be
successfully treated only by means of
a constitutional remedy like Hood
Sarsaparila, which throughly purifies
the blood and removes the scrofuous
taints which cause catarrh. The great
number of testimonials from those
who have been cured of catarrh by
Hoods Sarsaparilla prove unequaled
power of this medicine to conquer this
disease. If troubled with Catarrh give
Hoods Sarsaparilla fair trial at once

TACOMA, october ~, 1897.
Fifty business men and a numbe Of
newspaper correspondents sat down to
genuine "Klondike" dinner Saturday
evening The meal was served at q
leading hotel, and the host was the
famous condensed food manufacturer
A. F. Spawn. All the meats, vege.
tables and fruits used at the dinner
had been treated by Mr., Spawn's pro.
. cess. The menu was as follows:
Vegetable soup.
Irish stew.
Saratoga chips. Fried parsnips
Sweet potato patties. Potato pan cakes.
Cold OK tongue.
Stewed onions. Stewed squash
Apple pie pumpkin pie.
Stewed peaches, prunes and apples.
Cocoanut cake.
The soup was delicious, and Daw.
son City man, who was one of the
guests, said it would bring So plate
at the gold diggings. The Irish stew,
Saratoga chips, fried parsnips, onions
and squash were quite as pleasant to
the palate as the same dishes when
served without being treated by the
evaporated process. The pumpkin and
apple pie were wonders and the prunes
were declared the very best ever tasted
by several experts in the evaporated
and condensed fruit lines, who were
present for thepurpose of passing judg.
ment upon the excellence of the "Klon.
dixie dinner.
About half hour before the dinner
was served Mr.. Spawn carried few
little sacks of evaporated goods to the
chief cook, and the dinner that was
quickly served "astonished the natives"
In the speech making which followed
it was facetiously remarked that, here
after, in going to the Klondike all a
man would have to do would be to
cram his pockets with condemned food
and drink little water after eating a
few evaporated crumbs. The treat.
ment of meats, fruits and vegetables
by the evaporating process reduces the
weight ten fold, thus enabling a man
to carry quarter of ton Of 'spuds'
as part OF his Klondike outfit.
Throughout this section Of the country
farmers and fruit raisers are evapo'
rating their products for the kiondike
trade, and the latest and most i'm
proved machinery is being put in to
meet the demands for goods in this
line. Condensers and evaporators have
been put in throughout the Pacific
Northwest with headquarters for
handling the prepared goods at Tacoma.
The ships which leave with grain and
lumber on long voyages also use large
quantities of condensed and evaporated
goods. But the greatest benefit to be
derived Immediately from the extensive
manufacture of condensed foods at Ia.
coma is the supplying of the Kiondike
trade. Klondikers should be careful
about the quality of their condensed
foods. My advise is: Investigate
thoroughly and take only the best. y
A wise selection of food supplies, will,
in pinch, save the life of many a
gold seeker.
