Returned From Alaskan

DR.. William Ziesel, who reschad
home on August 23rd from u tripA t4
Alaska for his health has an interesting
experienced TO tell his friends. TO the
RECORD he states that he went OFT AS
the guests OF John j. IlageI the mIanag-
er 0ftbe Crude Oil Company, a Company
with a capital of $3.50, 900 organized to
develop a discovery Of sulphur, on the
top of Mt. Mukoshin, which is 1000
miles out from Seattle, Washington.
The party took five tons provision with
them but did not consume half,
They passed through the periious
straight Of Dutch lIar50r, which sep
crates the Pacific Ocean from Boring
Sea. This straight is very narrow and
the steamer drifted through. The
country where he visited seemed to be
OF volcanic origin. Most of their vol
anO were extinct but some were send
ing heat from the earth's interior. The
party cooked their meals over a assure
with volcanic heat.
Large quantities of sulphur were
found which will be mined in playing
quantities. Some of it is pure sulphur.
Nearly all the sulphur used in the Unit.
ell Slater comes from Italy and Sicily.
That is the reason the price doubled
during the Wal last year. There are
small mines in Louisiana. This found
in Alaska will be the most profitable
sulphur mines in the United States and
| the company of which Dir. Ziesel is a
director will undoubtedly reap q good
profit.
The TEN serature there was from SOTO
d degrees. The only unpleasant wealth
er on the trip was a rain and dense fog.
One OF The peculiar characteristics of
the country is that there is Il luXurant
growth of shrubery and beautiful flowers
at The base and side of the mountains
while not a tree grows. 1t was like
walking on velvet carpet which sank SIX
inches at each tread.
The doctor went up a mountain 540O
feet high which took II hours to climb,
and looked down ice assures from so to
100 feet deep.
On journey home several goldhunt-
ers from the Klondike came on the same
boat. About five out of $50 had from
5 5 1000 to SIS, 900. Many had less than
they started with and came back with
injured health. Some of the prices in
the gold region are as follows: milk 81
a quart, condensed milk 81 a can, beer
81 a bottle, whiskey SOC. a drink. silver
filling for a tooth SO, gold filling $50.
Some of their tales of hardship were
terrible.

And we spoke our little prologue, but we
never reached the play.
Oh! Our love was sweet and certain till
gray sorrow dropped the curtain.
Ay, we wakened at the dawning, but we

There were buds within our garden, but
they never came to flower,
There were birds among our bushes but
they only sang an hour.
And we laughed to see the swallow, but
the summer did not follow;
There were buds within our garden, but

To Ease the Feet.

If you are troubled with sore corns
do not fall to try the following treat
ment: Soak the feet well at night in
hot water, in which has been dissolved
few crystals of permanganate of pot
ash. Then dry carefully, especi ally
between the toes, and dust the skin in
these parts freely with mixture OF
fannie acid and boracic acid. Next
morning wash carefully with pure soft
soap and cold water. thoroughly dry,
and powder with boracic acid.
A piece of lemon or a split raisin
bound on a hard corn will very often
cure it. The first application may
produce soreness, but if treatment is
persisted in a reasonable length of
time cure will likely be effected. If
not, try the following preparation:
Thirty grains of salicylic acid and five
grains of Indian hemp; to be dissolved
in half an ounce of collodion.
For tired and tender feet nothing is
better than to battle the feet and legs
from five to eight minutes in hot wat
er in which has been dissolved a hand
full Of good sea salt. Rub briskly
with a coarse towel and apply slices
of lemon to the soles of the feet
A sure cure for broken chilblains is
the following: Take quarter of a pint
of oil of sweet almonds, one ounce of
Venice turpentine, three ounces of Ian
oline and one ounce of beeswax cut in
to shreds; melt all together in white
ware pot, and then put aside to cool.
stirring occasionally to prevent the
preparation from becoming too hard.
Spread this ointment on lint, and keep
the chilblains covered with it at night,
and as much of the day as is practi-
cable.
