ton of the fur situation as it exists today,
and after a long acquaintance with the great
fur companies, buyers, and trappers But a
few facts are necessary to show at what ruth
less pace the slaughter of fur animals has
gone on during the past decade. 1t not
long ago that 900 skins Of the sea otter
were taken from the Aleutian Islands each
year. Today there are less than 400 skins Ia
ken annually. Ten years ago sea otter was
a popular fur; today it Is worn only by the
royal blood of Europe. Twenty years ago it
was estimated that seal herds OF the Pry-
biloffs numbered over five millions. Today,
in spite of international treaties for their
protection there not more than 10000
seals on the island, About 10000 SKINS
were taken last year and so relentless Was
the slaughter on account of the princely sums
offered for the fur that 10000 baby seals died
during the season, chiefly of starvation be-
cause of the death of their mothers.
The glossy little wood marten is dying out.
Four years ago l met two Canadian trappers
who were coming down from the upper New
Ontario game regions With 300 marten, worth
then from four to five dollars skin. Today
they are worth twenty-five dollars, and half
a dosen are big catch" for any one man in
a single season. Five years ago 1,760,000
foxes were killed to supply the worlds mar
ket. Three years ago the number had fallen
to 100000 Last year less than a million
were caught. From two dollars a skin the
red fox jumped to twelve; the cross fox
from twenty-five to as high as hundred, sill
yer and black fox to prices that made their
skins ten times the value of their weight in
gold
The silver and black are now so rare that
they are bid" for only by dukes and
duchesses, the rulers and the heirs of king
doms and empires. Seldom does one sell in
the London or Paris markets for less than
from 500 to 81 600. A year ago one pelt sold
for $4,000. In this same way are going the
black sable and the little white ermine whose
pelt has been worn in the robes of royalty
for more than seven centuries. 1t not
long ago that 100000 skins of the black sable
found their way into the market each year.
Last year this number had dwindled to fifteen
thousand
The signs of the change" are now at hand

tutes in the fur line than during the coming
seasons.
The worlds prosperity and its rapid in
crease in population are, of course, the chief
causes of the extinction of fur. AS recently
as ten years ago the people of the United
States were not counted among the great
buyers of fur. Now the majority of women
among ninety million people are purchasers
of fur of one kind or another Five years
ago London was the worlds greatest fur cen
ter with Paris a close second Today, so
enormous has the demand for fur become in
this country as well as across the sea, that
there are over 5000 establishments for the
treatment of fine furs and the making Of fur
garments in New York City alone.
London and Paris have now taken second
and third places in the actual making of fur
garments. though London handles more raw
fur than the other two combined. Last year
the value Of New Yorks finished" output was
nearly 500 900 000 and fully sixty per cent.
of this was represented by the furs which
few years ago were considered almost worth
less.
Three years will clean out the cheaper
class of fur" said a Montreal buyer to me,
and then the real famine will be at hand"
This passing of the old romance of fur is
marked not only by the pathos of the furred
things themselves, but by that of the wild
and picturesque life OF those thousands Of
wilderness people whose centuries-old voca-
ton must go with the things which gave L
birth There is some comfort for the lover
of the wild and what 1t holds in the thought
that at least in great part of the far Cana
dian wilderness the picturesque fur-hunter
will never. like the courier du bois, quite die
out. In country one-third as large as the
whole of Europe railroads and civilization will
never go. This vast wilderness region, long
described as waste" stretches from the
coast of Labrador. through Ungaya, skirts
Hudson's Bay and swings north and west to
Mackenzie Land and the polar seas.
1t is a land where for six months out of the
year mans life is a bitter fight against deep
SHOWS and fierce bnzzards-against hardships
of all kinds. starvation, and a cold that
reaches sixty degrees below zero and which
is so dry that one may freeze almost to the
point of death without being aware of espe-
cial discomfort pain. It is, as Lord Strath-
COM says, the last great trapping ground"

NURSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES

used with best results during the past
twenty years. In my work as a nurse,
many skin disease cases came under
my observation, and in every in
stance, l always recommended the
Cuticura Remedies as they always
gave entire satisfaction. One case in
particular was that Of a lady friend
OF mine who, when a child, was af-
flicted with eczema which covered her
face and hands entirely. breaking out
at intervals with severer torture. She
could not go 10 school as the dishgure-
ment looked terrible. / told her to get
at once a set OF Cuticura Remedies.
After the use of only one set she was
perfectly we'll.
"a grown lady friend was afflicted
with salt rheum in one of her thumbs,
and she was cured by the Cuticura
Remedies. Still another lady had dry
salt rheum in both palms of her hands
every fall of the year. They used to
be so painful she could scarcely wet
her hands until she began to use tie

Of ringworm. The children's faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck and after
treatment with the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment they were completely cured
My husband had rheumatism on his
arm and I used the Cuticura ONT
ment. 1t made his arm as timber and
nice, whereas it was quite stiff before
l began to apply the Ointment.
Last May 1 had an ingrowing toe
nail which was very painful, as the
side of the nail was edging right
down in the side of my toe. / cut
the nail out of the cavity it made, ard
of course applied the Cuticura Oint-
ment to the part affected. 1t soothed
1t and in less than ten nights it was
all healed through constant use of the
Ointment. Ten days ago I had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ing lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
completely cured them. l have Just
recommended the Cuticura Remedies
to another friend, and she is pleased
with the results and is recovering

IT is A MISTAKE


Many have the idea that anything
Will sell if advertised strong enough.
This is a great mistake. True,
few sales might be made by advertis-
ing an absolutely worthless article
but it is only the article that is
bought again and again that pays.
An example of the big success of a
worthy article is the enormous sale
that has grown up for Cascarets
Candy Cathartie. This wonderful rec
ord is the result of great merit sue
cessfully made known through per-
sistent advertising and the mouth-to-
mouth recommendation given Cas-
carets by its friends and users.
Like all great successes, trade pr
rates prey on the unsuspecting pub
lie, by marketing fake tablets similar
in appearance to Cascarets. Care
should always be exercised in pur-
chasing we'll advertised goods, espe-
cially an article that has rational
sale like Cascarets. Do not allow q
substitute to be palmed off on you.
