1t has been held that consumption is
hereditary, and the fact that one per-
son of family died with consumption
was considered sure sign that others
of that family could not escape it.
This is partly true and partly untrue.
A man with weak lungs is likely to
transmit that weakness to his children.
But there is no reason in the world why
the weakness should be allowed to de-
velop. Keep the lungs full of rich, red
wholesome blood, and the weakness
will disappear. Decaying tissues will
be thrown off, and new material will
be added until the lungs are well and
perfectly strong again. This is the
thing that DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery does. This is what makes
it cure 50 per cent. of all cases of con-
sumption where it is taken according.

germs wherever they may be in the

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 1.-The fol-
lowing was received per steamer Utopia
to the Associated Press:
%Skaguay, Aug. 23.-The jam is
broken on the Skaguay trail. A num-
Der Of outfits have gotten over and there
is a steady volume of moving humanity
mixed up in an almost understandable
mass of horEes of all sizes. ages and con
d~itions; also vehicles Of every kind and
description to be imagined. Three
steamers are now unloading on lighters
which convey the freight as neal the
shore as possible before it is loaded on
wagons or anchored above high tide.
There are not less than 1900 horses at
work on the Skaguay trail, but it is
hard to get any n to contract to de-
liver you over the summit at any price,
but you can get over for about 80 cents
a pound if you are willing to wait and

l. is to be hoped there Is as large crop
OF potatoes in South Dakota this year
us there was last, as tie prospect of a
good price for the tubers is especially
promising. Already dealers are securing
Minnesota and other states for contracts
in potatoes and now comes the lrtelli-
gence from abroad that the potato crop
IS slmost as short as the wheat crop.
1t is estimated that the British Isles will
have to buy several hundred million
bushels of potatoes this year and the
United States Will have to be the supply
ground. Farmers want to bear this in
mind before selling to hurridly.
