A WORD OF ADVICE
10 Those Coming to Alaal<a or a,
kl0ndike Gold Fields.

10 Those Coming to Alaalka or ths
nondike Gold Fields.
One thing should be impressed upon
y'ery miner. prospector or trader com.
Eng to Alaska, to the Klondike, or the
Yukon country, and that Ia the neces.
sity for providing an adequate and
proper food supply. Whether procured
In the States. In the Dominion, or at
the supply stores here or further on,
this must be his primary concern.
Upon the manner in which the miner
has observed or neglected this precau-
ton more than upon any other one
thing will his success or failure depend.
These supplies must be healthful and
should be concentrated, but the most
careful attention In the selection OF
foods that will keep unimpaired in
definitely under all the conditions
which they will have to encounter Ia
imperative. For instance, as bread
raised with baking powder must be re-
lied upon for the chief part Of every
meal, imagine the helplessness of q
miner with q can Of spoiled baking
powder. Buy only the very best flour;
1t Is the cheapest in the end. Expert
encc has shown the Royal Baking Pow
der to be the most reliable and the
trading companies now uniformly sup
ply this brand, as others will not keep
In this climate. BE sure that the bacon
is sweet, sound and thoroughly cured.
These are the absolute necessities upon
which oil must place chief reliance.
and can under no circumstances be
neglected. They may, of course, be
supplemented by rs many comforts or
delicacies as the prospector may be able
to pack or desire to pay for.-Alaska

one excellent result thus far, the In

the national sentiment as 1t has never
before been aroused. From Maine to
Texas, from ocean to ocean, there is
but one sentiment, and that is the
maintenance OF the national honor
and dignity. This sentiment is as
unanimous and intense in the south as
