Diamonds in Alaska.

While many p%rospectors have been
combining their search chiefly for gold
and copper deposits in Alaska, others
have been searching for diamonds, and
according to recent reports they have
been successful in finding a few val
liable specimens. There are many
others persons who have been search
ing for years for something far more
precious than gold or diamonds and
that is-health. They have tried this
medicine and that one in vain hope Of
finding it, without success. They
