Fnsh for Elk Meat tu the Ktondike
Region by Miners.
Elk meat brings 81 per pound in the
Elondtke mining camps, and there are
three OF fou, deerslayeFs in that ter
ritory who are cleaning UP the tidy
sum OF $1,000 q month above their
living expenses. NJ. l. a. Kicker OF
Denver told me good story of one
Of these hunters, who ran across
couple of bear, promptly added them
to his game bag and got them into the
nearest settlement, where, greatly to
his disgust, he found that Bruin meat,
which he esteemed a dainty In the
East, could not be given away. He
returned to his camp wiser indi-
vidual. and thereafter never wasted
ammunition on any more Of that spe-
cies. This deer hunting seems a pref
ty good proposition for some Of our
young men who would like to combine
a chance at big game and an oppor-
tunty to make a small fortune, and 1t
would be apt to prove a more certain
bonanza that stalking out claim that
might, on working, turn out anything
bat profitable. The hunter would be
sure OF a market that would pay top
prices and not hRggle over reason
able degree of toughness in the goods
supplied For the benefit OF any ener-
gettc young man who desires to try
his chances as an elk proyider in or
binary to Dawson and other budding
towns Of the newest gold regions,
would say that the 1890 is the most
popular rifle in use up there at the
present time, on account Of Its long
range and the compactness Of its am
munition.-New York Times.

The attempt to keep your children in
Ignorance of stories about ghosts,
fairies, giants and gypsies would cor
tainly prove futile. If they are Of q
rcrvous and imaginative temperament
they will invent new terrors for them
selves instead of the old traditional
ones. A little girl OF six, who had
been jealousy guarded against any
acquaintance with nursery bogies and
,uperstitions, suffered from night ter
-ors of a severe kind, in which she
always screamed out that she was be-
,ng chased by robbers. But while it
nay be impracticable to protect chill
iren from knowledge of the super
natural and mysterious. 1t is inexcus-
able to brighten them with hideous
stories or to leave them prey to the
errors OF the solitude and darkness.

The trip OF the United States gun

promises to be looked upon as one of
the achievements Of the closing CEN

Wilming ton's cruise was to see how
rubber was found in the natural state,
and what manner Of man 1t was who
dvelt in the remote Businesses OF the
great forests whence it came During
the gunboat's stay the officers visited
many Indian villages. The Indians
were found to be apparently docile, but
there was no installing their uncivil-
ICED state. Clothing, save a strip or
two, worn by the women, are unknown.
The men are strong and muscular. and
show great chest development. They
are coppey-colored. of middle height,
with we'll shaped limbs and small hands
and feet Their hair is black, straight
and rather coarse. the features broad,
cheekbones not generally prominent,
eyes black, and. strange to say. some
times eblique like those Of the Tartar
races Of Eastern Asia The sole wea-
pons in their possession are the spear
and bow and arrow. The bows are OF
great length, and in the hands of a
skilled native can be made formidable.
i In some of the native huts the Ameri-
can visitors found curious objects
which. on closer Investigation. proved

was significant, inasmuch as it proved
that the tribe belonged to the class
known as head hunters" a term de-
rived from their habit of preserving
| the heads Of their enemies killed in
battle. The process consists in remov-
ing the skull and treating it with GER
tain herbs until the head has been re-
! duced to about one-sixth of It's original
size. The hair and features are pre-
/ served intact, thus giving the head a
very life-like appearance. The lips

Syncope, or fainting, results from an
inadequate supply of blood to the
brain. The patients head should,
therefore, be lowered. and all tight
bands Ioosened in order to promote
free circulation. Let there be a gen.
erous supply OF fresh air, being care
full at the same time to avoid draughts.
Friction may be applied to the ex-
tremities, always remembering to rub
towards, not from. the heart. Cold
water dashed over the face will often
assist in reviving the patient, and
smelling salts are often used as re-
storative. In the case of strong smell
Zig salts. one should never hold the
bottle for any length of time close to
;he nostrils of an unconscious person,
but pass it to and fro at some little
distance from the face. Perhaps the
H7fest way is to hold the cork or stop
per of the bottle near the patient S
nostrils, as that will answer all pur-
poses and prevent injurious effects.

AGAINST PoLYGAMY.

One New York Church Decides to Work
for n CONGREGATIONAL Amendment.
New York, Dec. 23.-At a recent
meeting of the members of the West
End Presbyterian church 1t was decid-
ed to indorse and work for the pro-
posed amendment to the constitution
so that polygamy may be made impos-
sible in the United States.
Rev. N. E. Clemenson, Of Lyon,
Utah, was the principal speaker. He
told Of polygamy as he had seen it on
his own street. and how the Mormons
were still living with many wives, con-
trary to Their pledges when Utah was
admitted into statehood. He thought
the dangers In Idaho greater than in
Utah, as less attention is paid to Nor
mons there, and they live openly with
their wives under the system they call
celestial marriage" and which they
deny to be polygamy.
Mrs. w. P. White, who for some
years has been doing missionary and
editorial work among the Mormons
| told how her school house had been at
tackled and wrecked by a mob. She
declared that the Mormon church had
political control of seven western
states.
Mrs. White also said that under theiI
marriage system Of colontzing doubt.
! full states the Mormons before Ions
would control IS states and it would
then be impossible to kill polygamJ
without civil war.

Imirators do not advertise their formula

Iron acts as tonic while the Ouinine drives
the malaria out of the system. Any reliable
druggist will tell you that Groves is the
original and that all other so-called ssTaste-
