CuTICURA PROVED ITS
 WONDERFUL EFFICACY

CT am now eighty years old and one morning, three years ago, was taken with a hard pain in my right side. In two days l had an attack of piles (hemorrhoids), bleeding and protruding: The doctor gave me some medicine and an ointment for them which helped me some but I had to keep using them all the time. Then l changed to the P-- remedy; but if I did not use it every dav I would ret worse. The doctor said the only help for me was to go to a hospital and be operated on. At this time, about a year ago. l went to using the S- remedies. tried them for four or five months but did not get much help for~ my piles. During this time sores would come on a tieshy part of my body. They bothered me all the time. l would get one healed and another would come. These sores changed to eczema, accompanied by O terrible itching. It seemed as II could not keep my hands from tearing my flesh. This and the pile trouble brought on, an lnHamed condition; Then I got the Cuticura Remedies. washed the affected parts with Cuticura Soap and warm water in the morning, at noon, and at night then used Cuti- cura Ointment on the irritated sur faces and injected a quantity of Cuti- cura Ointment with Q Cuticura Sup pository Syringe. I also took Cuti- cura Resolvent Pills three times day. IL took a month of this treatment to get me in a fairly healthy state and then l treated myself once Q day for three months and, after that, once or twice Q week. It is fortunate that l used Cuti- cura. The treatments had tried took lot of money that would have saved by using Cuticura Remedies sooner, but I am wiser now. am supplied with full set of the Cuticura Remedies and would not feel safe without them.

CONCERNING JUDGE slLAs REID.
Think it over.

The fact that charges have been preferred against Judge SiIas H. Reid of the third judicial division of Alaska is no surprise to those who are conversant with conditions in his district. There is but little doubt that Judge Reid has become involved in politics and neglected his proper duties. The appointment of his brotther.in-law as receiver of thhe AL aska Central railroad at a fat salary was another questionable act. If Reid is removed he has only himself to blame

HAWAII SETS ALASKA AN EXAM.
PILE.

Once every week every newspaper and periodical in the United States and in all it's territories receives al letter from the press news bureau of the Hawaii Promotion committee con taiuiug news articles written in an interesting way by trained newspaper men. These articles are furnished free, and as they contain nstructing and well written material, much of which IS good news" hundreds of such articles are published every day by the press Of this country.
 As a result the people of the United States are becoming acQuaint. ed with Hawaii, are learning about its climate and resources. are reading it's unique and fascinating history, are finding out what manner of peo- pie live there. Residents and inyes- tors are attracted to Hawaii in this manner and the value of the work done by the Hawaiian Promotion| Committee cannot be estimated inI dollars and cents.
 Alaska needs a Promotion com. mittee. Nine people Of every ten inI the United States know more about Hindustau and Persia than they dol about Alaska. They imagine this country is a great ice covered waste. that the normal temperature is about fifty degrees below zero. that most of our cities are somewhat akin to. Esquimaux villages. that our people. are uncouth pioneers. No, Alaskan who has not travelled widely in the states can conceive of the ignorance| concerning the simplest facts regard, ing this country.
 We. who know SO we'll Alaska's ad. yanages. should be willing and anx, ious to impress them upon others. A campaign of education carried onI as the people of Hawaii are doing it would prove of inestimable benefit to Alaska and the cost would be trining Such a campaign would bring us more citizens. would secure new capi. tai for development, and eventually would teach the people of the United States that right at their doors it a vast country. inhabited and developed by Americans as intelligent as those living in any state in the union: Vet who are denied the primitive right of self.government Once knowing this influence sufficiently strong would be brought by the public on congress to give Alaska self. government and a fair share of our rightful dues in the matter of. government appropriations.
 If the men of affairs in Alaska can get together on this proposition the results will be far reaching and will come soon.

John T. McNamara. for several years manager or the champion Portage Lake hockey team or, Houghtou, Mich, is anxious for a revival of professional hockey. He would like very much to get Duluth and St Paul-MinneapOlis interested. which. he ayers, would spell success in large letters for such an organization as it is proposed to form. On several occasions there has been discussed a league made up of St. Paul or Minneapolis, Duluth, Tough ton. Sault Ste. Marie Detroit and Cleveland O.
