Output of the kIondike.

No one will ever know exactly how
much gold was taken from the Klondike
fields the past season. Since the Eng
lish government imposed royalty, the
miners have adopted all sorts of ruses
to evade the law. 1t is rather difficult
to dodge taxes, but it is more difficult
TO dodge a bad cold and the grip at this
time Of the year. When the system is
weakened by such attacks, and the
blood becomes thin and Impoverished,
the best medicine to take is Hostetter'S
Stomach Btters This remedy builds
up the system. Besides regulating di-
geStion, it overcomeS constipation. 1t
is good for the kidneys and liver, too,
stimulating these organs into the proper
performance Of their functions. Moth
ing is so good for malaria.
