FEATURES OF BIG FAIR AT SEATTLE

that this sum VIII be granted. ne
national government will be asked for
another $1,000,O00. and the individual
exhibitors and foreign nations will
swell the grand total to S10O00.000.
The fair is going to tell the people
who come to it, first of all, some things
about Alaska that few people know.
Did you, for instance. know that with
in the arctic circle can be grown
grasses and vegetables and the harder
grains? Did you know that since the
Klondike rush $1S0,O0O,O00 worth of
gold has come to Seattle from the
northland; that the whaling industry
has been worth $100,00O,000? Alaska
was the biggest bargain Uncle Sam
ever bought. a bigger bargain even
than the Louisiana territory. Alaska
cost $7.200.000. Its imports and ex-
ports are annually more than three
times the purchase price.
There will be an Alaska building at
the Alaska ukon-Pacific exposition
and probably another building to house
the displays from the neighboring ter
ritory, Yukon. Gold was found in the
Yukon country long before it was
known to exist in any quantity on the
American side.
The national exhibition at the fair
will deal largely with the northland.
but will not neglect the United States
proper or the interesting island posses
sions. The orient generally will have
dependencies in the islands of the Pa
cific they will wish to exploit, and
Australia and New Zealand probably
will have separate displays. And then
there are Canada and MEXICO.
Asia and Oceania have ten times the
population. of the United States; they
occupy three times as much space.
Trade between the nations bordering
on opposite shores of the broad Pa
cific, while growing every year, is by
no means what it would be if each
knew the needs of the other. To con-
tribute this information, through the
medium of exhibits, will be principal
object of the Alaska Yukon Pacific ex-
position.

Pacific exposition have the experiences

Another worlds fair is due in q little

clude in its attractions the pride OF the
southern seas and the wealth of the
golden north. 1t is to be called the
Alaska YukonPac exposition and is
already in course of preparation at
Seattle, Wash.
The most notable achievement to
date of the management of the new
fair was the raising in one day of
s6J0,000 to finance the enterprise. This
was an accomplishment never before
equaled by any city, and if it is to be
taken as criterion of what is to fol-
low the fair of 1909 is certain of sue
cess.
1t was Seattle spirit, nationally fa-
nous, that made possible the raising
of this flood of gold. And the same
Seattle spirit will back the project
during the next three years. The fair
was conceived before the gates of the
Portland exposition had swung to for
the last time. The idea took, and in
May a corporation was formed. Dur

the raising of the funds, and he pro-

and some Of them without even the
song. There viii be nothing of the
sort at Seattle, for most of the build
ings will be erected for ali time.
The grounds of the lusty young Uni
yersity of Washington, an institution
which already ranks ut the top of the
northwestern list, have been chosen
as the fair site. They embrace 355
acres. ideally situated on the shore OF
Lake Washington, the largest fresh
water body in the west. 1t Is planned
that the fair buildings. after the fair.
shall be used as recitation halls and
dormitories for the sons and daugh-
tiers of Washington.

popular that its success is assured. for
the participating commonwealth TO
erect buildings and donate them 10 the
university. Each state that is repre-
scented at the fair of 1909 will be repre-

preventing constipation, add to 1t.
This is true Of most cathartics, which,
when first used, have beneficial ef.

remedy ceases to have the slightest
effect. There is one preparation, how
ever, that can be relied upon to pro-
duce the same results with the same

use, and this is Brandreth's Pills,
