Rheumatic Pains

My mother is a great suf- ferer from rheumatism, and Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only remedy that relieves her."
 MRS. c. DAVENPORT,
 Roycefeld, N. J.
 The pains of rheumatism are almost invariably relieved with Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They also overcome that nervous irri- tation which prevents sleep be- cause they soothe the nerves. To chronic suffers they are invalu- able. When taken as directed, they relieve the distress and save the weakening influence of pain, which so frequently pros trates. Many sufferers use them whenever occasion requires with the greatest satisfaction, why not you? They do not derange the stomach nor create a habit. Why not try them? Get pack age from your druggist. Take it according to directions, and if it does not benefit he will return your money.

great value Of Alaska be true, says a
writer in the September Van Norden
Magazine To that end he has sent
into the vast territory a regiment of
surveyors and ar army of camp bands,
not only to chart the surface and tell
what it is like. but to look below the
surface and ascertain what it has
locked up. The field season for these
parties differ greatly. but the work is
carried on between March and Novem-
Der. Among the most important re-
suits of last years work were the COM
pletion of detailed surveys of the two
most important copper districts Of
Prince OF Wales Sound region, the
completion of the reconnaissance sur
vcy of copper bearing areas of the
Prince William Sound and the Copper
White River regions, and the compile
ton of the reconnaissance survey Of
the Goals of the Alaska Peninsula re-
giOn.
In the SeWard Peninsula alone 80
gauging stations are maintained. and
data on 1900 square miles of mining
lands has been obtained.
