BILE. For great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly falling to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
ticna1 disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Che

constitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of

dollars for any case it fails to cure.

DAWSON CITY, Nov. %, via Seattle,
Jan. Especial to New York He.R,ld.-
The Yukon is closed, but everything
here is wide open Perhaps there isn't
as much food as there might be, but
there is plenty of whisky to keep every
body in good humor. Rum is the staff
of life, and why should anybody fret
himself about such paltry things as
timed beef and bread? There is one
good thing about most Of the whisky
which comes to this land Of snow, and
that Is that it does not freeze in tran
sit. Of course, you cannot get a sher-
ry flip without digging the eggs out Of
the can, for all eggs come here broken
into tins, Theoretically sealed, and duly
frozen.
There is something exhilarating in the
air of Dawson City these days. There
is gold in plenty, whisky in abundance,
and life is full of incidents. The can
non stoves in the saloons send forth
a cheerful glow. and the dance halls
ring with merriment all night long.
There is not much demand for alb
sinthe frappe and champagne on ice
The average Dawson City saloon needs
no ice box. The refrigerating plant is
all around you, in the sky above and
the waters beneath. A man who evil

which the interest will gather around

written gracefully and we'll a story

nevertheless does justice to the real

The heroine of Mr.. McLennan's ro-

NO maiden complexities the plot by her

the boy hero, whose male relatives are
as the sands Of the sea. A sister is
three times casually mentioned but
she is always at a safe distance from

unique omission of the feminine ele-
ment of romance is not as noticeable
as one would suppose.
