nntnnt Of the KIondike

No one will evef know exuctly
how much gold was taken from the
Klondike fields the past season.
Since the English government i'm
posed royalty, the miners have
adopted all sorts of ruses to
eyade the law. 1t is rather difficult
to dodge taxes, but it is more diff
cult to dodge bad cold and the
grip at this time of year. When
the system is weakened by such at
tacks, and the blood becomes thin
and impoverished, the best medicine
to take is Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, This remedy builds up the
system. Besides regulating diges-
ton, it overcomes constipation, 1t
is good for the kidneys and liver,
too, stimulating these organs into
the proper performance of their
functions. Nothing is so good for
malaria,

When things don't 60 to suit the
aldermen in Shreveport they bolt
the meeting and leave the mayor
without a quorum There should
be some law made to make man
stick to his post Of duty and fight
bad legislation the best he knows
how. He should never run out of
a fight under any conditions, when
he represents a constituency. II
he votes against bad city ordin'
ances it is all that is expected of
him. We say to all fleeing alder
men, think twice before you leave
the city council, in order to block
vicious legislation.

by the audience that the length of the
programme did not permit also Ellen's
song, Soldier Rest, Thy Warfare's

and Malcolm Graeme strove in their
fierce rivalry over Ellens hand was
well portrayed, as were the strong
sketches Of Allan Bane and Douglas.
The rather monotonous rhythm of the
poem is not one that readily lends itself
to recitation, because Of the danger Of
degenerating into sing-song by the
voice. This was avoided by the speaker,
who displayed a prodigious memory in
reciting without perceptible hesitation
long selections from almost every
Canto.

himself and the "Snowdoun's Knight Is
