The Stomach is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the
man, because it cannot transform
the food he eats into nourish-
ment. Health and strength can
not be restored to any sick man
or weak woman without first re-
storing health and strength to the
stomach. A weak stomach cannot
digest enough food to feed the
tissues and revive the tired and
run down limbs and organs of the
body. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure di-
gests what you eat, cleanses and
strengthens the glands and men,
branes of the stomach, and cures
indigestion, dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles. Sold by Opera

lows. ever at war among themselves
and with the whole outside world. De
spite their ferocity they are a clever
race, dress handsomely, have their sui
tans and their slaves and are expert
seamen, while long continued pillagc
on the high seas has surrounded them
with many of the luxugies and conTen-
fences Of western civilization.
The buildings of Agriculture. Forest
~ and Fisheries show all the varied
natural products, also the extremely
primitive processes as yet in vogue,
while in the Women's building we are
introduced to a number of native mar
ufactures, including the beautiful fab
RIGS from the just. banana and pine
apple fibers. This information is collat
ed in the Building of Commerce, where
a UNIQUE and most effective method OF
exhibiting is followed. In one hall are
samples of all the articles produced for
export, among which manila fiber. OF
course, holds the chief place of prom
inence, while in a second hall are all
the manufactures from every country
that are imported and find a ready
market among the pOpulace. Thus the
business man gets a dual lesson. He
sees what he can profitably take from
the islands. and also what he may
profitably send TO them. When it is
added that large number Of represent
alive Filipinos have been brought over
to visit the Exposition and study Amer
can business methods and m&nufac-
lures, it vii be recognized that great
benefit both to the islands and to tie
world al large must result from this
work of mutual enlightenment.

"They who bemoan tire appearance

Burning Garbage.

In burning garbage in the range
it is a mistake to put it directly on
the fire. Put it under the side or
back lids, where the fire does not
come in contact with it, and it will
dry out. 1t is best to put the gar
bage in the stove at night, and by
morning it is dr,ed to finder and
will blaze up and burn when the
fire gets hotter, leaving no odor
whatever. Never allow any scraps
of food to be put in the scuttle.

A Novel Bell Tower.

Church authorities, like private
individuals, have to make the Jest
of circumstances, and the most pic
tureSQuc feature of a little mission
church in German South Africa is
its bell tower, says the New York
Times. The chapel is of the sim
plest style of architecture and no.
where in it was there a place to hang
a bell. A bell has conscience awak-
ening qualities in places not so
thickly settled or so given to late
hours that its effects are not alto
gether as moral as might be desired,
and a nearby tree SOLVED the bell
tower problem. The bell was hung
to one of its lower branches, where
it swings free when rung, and the
rope is tied to the trunk to keep it
quiet when not in use. The mission
is in Windhut, the chief city of this
part of Africa and the seat of the
governor.

A Human Wise.

The Natatorium has been the scene of much tugging and grunting this week. The large new boiler that is being installed weighs four or five tons, dead weight. If it weighed anything less than that, Prof. Ayers would jug gle it into place with a complacent smile. MT. Murray, who occupies the position of a kind of father to the Natatorium, was experimenting the installation of the new boiler and he found it necessary to take apart two pieces of 24-pipe. He looked in vain for a wise, and, at last in spirit of desperation he told Ayers, the strong, who was standing near, to take hold of it. MT. Murray had pipe wrench, and the pipe was old and badly rusted but Ayers calmly closed his hands on the other end of it and Murray screwed it apart.

One of the greatest evils that exists in this community is the sale of intox- icants to natives. Time and again the Indians of all ages are seen on the streets drunk. The police departments both in Juneau and Douglas should take especial pains to run down the class of criminals who are guilty of this crime. Both towns should work together in this matter, for the Indian who wants whiskey will not hesitate to cross the channel.
 On Tuesday afternoon of this week, Mrs. Dallas Marks entertained a num- Der of her lady friends, the occasion being the birthday anniversary of that lady. A splendid lunch was served A birthday cake, in which was conceal ed silver thimble, formed a part of the repast. Mrs. Slater was the lucky one. Among those present were Mes danes Powell, Henson, Slater, Brown, Penglase, Patterson, Monagle, Grundd- Ter and Coggins, and a whole lot of little folks.

Imperfect Digestion.

Means less nutrition and in con sequence less vitality. When the liver fails to secrete bile, the blood becomes loaded with bilious properties, the di- gestion becomes impaired and the bowels constipated. Heroine will rectify this; it gives tone to the stom- ach, liver and kidneys, strengthens the appetite, clears and improves the com plexion, infuses new life and vigor to the whole system. 50 cents bottle at J.

 Since the closing down of the 1900" mill ct Treadwell, work is progressing rapidly on the addition to the big hoist building. This addition is to be most ly at the top, to allow the installation of two more rock crushers, also to give room for the operation of new hoist ing engine. This machine will have a drum 10 feet in diameter, and 7-foot face. It will also be fitted with safety contrivance, which, should the skip be allowed to run above fixed point, will throw the levers, reverse the engine, and start it going the other way. The operation of four crushers, instead of two, will make it possible to crush the ore much finer than formerly, thus re lieving the stamps. This will make it possible for the mills to handle even more rock than they have in the past.
