A resident of this valley, who left for
ths Klondike, was heard in a realty office

every breath he drew. The man has
been to the Klondike before and has
been moderately successful, and simply
because he has been he turns and curses
the country which has made him liv-

country for period Of ten years shows
conclusively that it has some attractions
