Curing cramp In the Leo.


Many persons are greatly troubled

suddenly and generally while in bed
There is nothing easier than to make

STILL AFTER DIR. COOK.

The Fairbanks Expedition to Mt.
Mckinley has returned 1t reports hay
ing reached the summit of the noun
tain on April 9. after climbing for a
month. and it also reports that mo
traces of DR.. Frederick A. Cooks all
legged ascent were found, which does
not prove. in our opinion, that Dr.
Cook never got to the top of this
mountain.
If the Fairbanks Expedition could
get there as they claim to have done
DIR. Cook certainly could have done as
much. Admittedly, one of the great
est discoveries of modern times, he is
not to be set down, nor is his work to
be minimized by any of the discoveries
who may have followed in his track
Besides, how does anybody know that
the Fairbanks Expedition got to the
top of Mt. Mckinley? They say that
they got there, and we believe they
did, but nobody who was not OF the
party would be willing to take the
witness stand and swear that they
reached the summit. Besides. it has
