3. B. sleem Appears in Person to Prove
He Is Not Dead.

The friends of Mr.. r. B. Sleem. who for
five or six years have mourned him as
dead, were agreeably surprised few days
ego to meet. their long lost friend very
much alive. healthy and prosperous. the
owner of paying mining properties in
Alaska. Mr.. Sleem was up to seven years
ago employed in this city in responsible
position with a large furniture concern.
He left the city in 1897. A year or so later
word was received that he was among
those who persisted from the cold in Alas
ka, while on the hunt for gold. ana his
friends expressed their sorrow and regret
at his death.
Mr.. Sleem, however, did not die IN Alaska
as reported, and was never i'll day. He
went all over the territory with increasing
success at every step. He endured all the
harGshps of the severe climate and the
perilous undertaking of a prospector fer
gold and minerals, but his sufferings. he
says, were amply repaid by the results CT
his work. He returned to Washington a
few days ago, after making a trip trough
the western part of the country lasting
Ave months.
Mr.. Sleem expects to spend few days in
Washington and will then go to New loil,
for short stay on business connected with
his Alaskan properties. On his return
from the metropolis he will probably Toxic
up his residence in Washington for year
at least. He does not contemplate return
ing to Alaska until next summer.

In 1901 Mr.. Wallace's title was changed
to assistant general manager and he was
placed at the head of the operating depart
ment, having in charge the engineering,
roadway, transportation, machinery and
other departments classed under the head
OF operation. In September, 1902, he was
appointed general manager.

President Fish's Praise.
Speaking of Mr.. Wallace. Mr. Stuyvesant
Fish. president of the Illinois Central said !:
There Is no professional engineer In my
acquaintance who 1 think has in a higher
degree than Mr.. Wallace the especial COM
mercial and diplomatic tact which L con-
Ceive will be required. He not only has
commercial sense. knows the value of
money, but also has very rare capacity
In dealing with men, whether they be above
him. his peers or under him. 1t goes with
out saying that he is upright and DOWN
right"
1t is estimated that about two years will
be required to complete the surveys. make
the estimates Of cost and decide on the
final plans. In round figures, the canal
will cost $200,OO0.00O and will require ten
years to complete. Aside from the engi-
neers. machinists and other skilled labor,
the constructive work will give employment
to $1,000 men.

NEW THOUGHTS.
Are You Growing More Attractive
as You Advance in Life?
BY VALENTINE.

II the mind keeps itself occupied
with right thinking it is impossible
to be plain, ugly or uninteresting in
late life, says Ella Wheeler Wilcox,
in New Thoughts Magazine. "The
withered and drawn faces of many
indicate withered emotions and
drawn and perverted ambitions. The
dried and sallow face tells the story
of dried-up synpathies and hopes.
The furrowed face tells of acid cares
eating into the heart" He who un-
derstands his own divine nature will
grow more beautiful with the pass
ing OF time. Are you growing more
attractive as you advance in life ?
Study yourself and answer these
questions to your own soul, for in
the answer depends the decision
whether you will really love and
trust
Given healthy body" says DR..
r. Y. Pierce, the specialist in

Riches do not make happiness, nor
does it do to worry about tomorrow.
Do what you can now. Do the best
you know how, then boldly face the
after-a-while. In nine cases out OF
ten the person who worries, who
can't sleep O nights, and feels blue

We must eat to live. We must eat

OF food does not agree with you try
another. But don't try cosmetics
until you have corrected every fault
OF digestion. Pretty women often
sacrifice their beauty to digestion. 1t
Is fact that any form of dyspepsia
may in few days transform a clear,
white skin into a mass of pimples and
black spots. A beautiful woman has
the beauty of her stomach. The Oft
quoted phrase, The way to mans
heart lies through his stomach" is
true in medical sense, for distend-

man undertakes to direct the construction
of the Panama canal project 1t Is necessary
for him to burn his ships behind him, and
that $4,000 is not too high for man COM

undertakes that task gives up his business

Rod said the admiral.
Mr.. Wa1lace's Career.
Mr.. Wallace was born at Fall River,
Mass. and educated as civil engineer at
Monmouth University, Monmouth. Ill.
In 1859 he entered the service of the Car
thage and Quincy railroad as rodman. In
1870 he was assistant engineer on surveys
for the Quincy, Alton and St Louis rail-
road. From 1871 to 1876 he was assistant
engineer OF the United States engineering
corps at Rock Island, Ill. During this time
ne excayated channel through the st.
Louis chain of rocks by machinery of his
own design.
In 1879 Mr.. Wallace was appointed chief
engineer of the Peoria and Pennington
railway.
In January, 1891, he was employed by the
Illinois Central to asShf in handling the
WORLDS fair transportation problem, and
submit plans for taktnG=care of this bnsi-
terminal property of the Illinois Central
These plans were finally adopted by the

and assimilate the proper nutritious
food. 1t overcomes the gastric irri-
liability and symptoms of indigestion,
and thus the person is saved from
those symptoms of fever, night
sweats, headache, etc. which are so
common. A tonic made up largely
of alcohol will shrink the corpuscles
of the blood and make them weaker
for resistance. Cod liver Oil makes
the stomach groan because it is irri-
tating. What is needed is an altera-
tive extract like DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, made of roots
and herbs, without the use Of alco-
hol, that will assist the stomach in
assimiliating or taking up from the
food such elements as are required
for the blood, also an Alternative that
will assist the liver into activity and
cause it to throw off the poisons in
the blood. When we have accom-
plished this we have put the system
into a fortified condition so strong
that it can repel the germs OF disease
which we find .everywhere-iil the
street cars, the shops, the factories,
the bed rooms, wherever many peo-
pie eongregate or where sunlight
and good air do not penetrate.
1T has been seven months since
using DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, and | only used three bot
ties of the medicine when it made me
feel like a new man." writes S. A.
Miller, Esq. (care of Mr.. Amos
Hyre, R. D. Io), Dayton, Ohio. Il

clans for quite a long time without
receiving any benefit, and became
discouraged. | read of the wonder

for others and concluded to try it.
l can testify to the merit of your
medicine, and feel very grateful for
the benefits received. | felt all worn
out, and had an awful misery in my
back for two years, but noticed a
change for the better when l began
using your Golden Medical Dis
covery."
Il feel it duty to write and tell
you how much good your medicines
have done" writes Mrs. Robt. Muir
head of Orchard Lake, Mich. when
| first wrote you was in very poor
health, but your medicines have
helped me wonderfully, and if l had
taken them little longer | would
have been entirely cured. Am going
to get some more of your medicine
right away. l do not think there is

other diseases that people are afflict-
ed with at this time of the year than
