Cure Catarrh,

= Hyomei pronounced High-o-me) is a
germ killing vapor of air which when
breathed either through the mouth or
nose will kill catarrh germs and sooth
and heal the inflamed and mutilated
membrane.
Hyomei is such a powerful germ de-
stroyer that 1t ponetrates every fold
and crevice of the mucous membrane
OF the nose and throat And it kills the
catarrh germs because it gets where
those health destroyers are.
Hyomei is pleasant to use: it is made
from concentrated extract of pine and
eucalyptus taken from trees in inland
Australia where catarrh was never
known.
Breathe in this pleasant. healing yet
germ killing air you'll like to use Hy-
omen through a small hard rubber in
haler that comes with each outfit and
relief will come quickly

One feature of interest, especially to
the tourist, is the fish at spawning time
endeavoring to ascend the rivers and
creeks. Interesting accounts of this
would fill pages. Some of the largest
fish canneries in the world are in Alas
ka, tine annual output of canned fish
being enormous. There are also fish
salteries in nearly every town and ma
ny places where there are no towns,
where sailed fish are sent out to all
tho world.
The New England fish company, said
to be the largest of the kind in the
world, has nearly completed a plant in
Ketchikan, the main buildings Of which
cost about a quarter of a million dol
lars. All kinds of fish will be pur-
chased at all seasons of the year, Civ

of people. Halibut as long as eight or

The mountains are flrrowed by land

of the avalanche. They vary in width
from small narrow ones to hundreds
of feet wide and thousands of feet in

of trees and shrub5ery have grown over

different shade of green.
Down the sidec of the mountains may
be seen the swiftly flowing streams,
widening and deepening on its down

great waters, it goes pouring and foam

roaring noise which increases in sound

Mrs. Ada Sparhawll Young of lletchi-

The climate of Alaska and her re-
sources IS widely misunderstood. The
climatic conditions are very nearly as
varied as all of the United States lying
east of the Mississippi. The climate
of southeastern Alaska is nearly semi
tropical. The JapaneSe Gulf stream
flows 50 near the coast that it diffuses
it's warmth all along these shores. The
winters are warmer and there is less
snowfall than at Washington, d. c.
In this part of Alaska the green grass
nc seen all through the winter. The
climate is very euuabe. as the extremes
of heat and cold are not so severe as
in the northeastern states. The enor-
nous rainfall along the coast has great
effect on vegetation.
The mean annual temperature of
southeastern Alaska is about Is de-
grees. The month of August is usually
the hottest ard ranges from So degrees
to 81 degrees. February is the coolest
month. rarely below zero. said to be
due to the active gales off the glaciers.
The climate of the interior, near the
southern part is similar to that of
northern Montana and Dakota. Very
little snow falls during the winter, and
sometimes not any until after New
Years. Summer in southeast Alaska
has many long sunny days which make
the yield of certain crops enormous.
During the longest days daylight he
gins as early as A. NJ. and one can
see to read as late as 10 or II 7. NJ.
Most of the southeast coast is dense
ly timbered with forests, chiefly made
up of spruce and hemloCk with some
red and yellow cedar and other species.
Shrubbery and all plant life grows
rank and larger in proportion to those
grown in the states. The dense growth
of trees and shrubbery shields the
ground from the suns rays and tho
moisture from the heavy rain fall is
long preserved in the moss covered
sponge-Ii'te soil. Even at the top Of
some of the mountains and high hills
the ground is continually wet and bog
gy.
Il heavy growth of moss covers the
ground. This dense growth of shrub
berry is in strong contrast to the open
forests of most of the interior and the
treeless region and barren grounds of
the northern part.
In the interior, it is said. that wheat

Aid Society Of this city Is to be credited
with them all at once and with many
other similar activities In behalf OF poor

practical minds: that while benevolent
work for people OF any age results In

them to become self-support!ng and

make their declining years comfortable.
With the young poor there is an oppor-
tunity to lead them into lives of COM
petence.
So far as we have been able to per-

INTERNATIONAL SLANGWHANGTNG

INTERNATIONAL SLANGWHANGING
A writer has just been convicted In
this city of criminal libel against mem
Der of the Mexican government in n
book apparently composed for the pur-
pose Of assailing the President of that
republic. The interesting feature of the
case is that the libel was committed
against conspicuous officer of foreign
government. Far too often writer's of
books, as well as Of newspaper and mag
azine articles. and also public speak
ers. seem TO think that foreigners. and
especially foreign rulers. are fair and
safe targets for any shafts of detraction
and abuse. 1t is true that immunity is
generally enjoyed by their makers, even
when the attacks are untru: and libel
lous, because the injured person is far
away and has not the time or the in
clination 10 take the matter into court.
That circumstance however, aggravates
the offence. The libeller says things
about foreigner which he would never
dare 10 say about person in this cOun-
try. Moreover ii is the head Of state
who is libelled. and therefore the utter
ance is calculated not merely TO do harm
to an individual. but also - create mis-
apprehension and III feeling between
two nations
We do not condemn American writer's
and speakers as greater offenders in this
respect than those of other lands, and in
the present instance the offender is not
an American. Temperate statements of
facts and decent criticism. even though
severe, are permissible and may be salu-
tary. but IT is not well for men In one
country publicly TO rage against the dig
nitaries of another, nor even TO dis
cuss the politics OF a neighbOring nation
with the impassiOned partisanship which
may characterize and disfgure -
heated local campaign. If truth and
courtesy and a certain degree of de-
tached disinterestedness should char
acterize all public utterances about the
men and affairs OF other lands the cause
OF friendship and peace among the ma
tons would he materially promoted.
