300 tons of gold sand, the richest gold bearing gravel found on the beach near Nome.
 As freight offerings at4his time of the year from the North are very small, the ship was forced to take some bal last to stem the strong head winds. So the gold sand was loaded to steady the hull. The sand is being unloaded at the Tacoma shelter and the result of the cleanup will be watched with in- terest by mining men all over the Northwest.
 The sand is black, and so rich in gold dust as to glitter and sparkle This sand when washed by the placer method of pan and water pays about 5c to the pan.

 Promptly at the hours appointed, the hired hand takes up a position in front of the hardware emporium, and im- mediate'y thereafter the sweet notes of Claxon horn spread over the snow covered niggerheads of the inland empire. You can hear it's tunefuI melody twice daily-at noon and at six p.m.

HEALTH FOR THE CHILD.

The careful mother, watching close.
~ the physical peculiarities of her
children, soon learns that health is In
q great measure dependent upon nor.
NAL, healthy, regular bowel action.
When the bowels are inactive, loss Of
appetite. restlessness during sleep, ir-
ritability and a dozen and one similar
evidences OF physical disorder are soon
apparent.
Keep the bowels free and clear and
good health is assured. At the first
sign OF constipation give the child a
t~easpoonful of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin at bedtime and repeat the
dose the following night, If necessary.
You Will find the child will quickly re-
v its accustomed good spirits, and
eat and sleep normally.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable to salts, cathaltics and
purgative waters which are harsh in
their action. Syrup Pepsin acts on
the bowels easily and naturally, yet
positively, and causes no gripping or
discomfort. Its tonic properties build
up the stomach, liver and bowels, re.
storing their normal condition.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald.
wells Syrup Pepsin in soc and 800
bottles. II You have never tried his
remedy, send for a sample to DR.. w.
B. Caldwell, 20l Washington St., Mon.
t1cello, Ill. He Will gladly send a
trial bottle without any expense to

Great Falls. - While alone on a
homestead about three miles from
the town of Chinook, Mrs. Ry.
der, 70 years old, who recently
came to this state from Iowa, was shot
and killed by a mysterious rider.
Mrs. Ryder was on the ranch of her

some distance from the house. He
saw a man ride to the house, and
later heard two shots, w~hereupon the
mar galloped away. Going to the
house, he found his mother dead with
Il bullet through her heart.
A posse which was formed eight
hours later found Archie Malette.

fitted the tracks near the Ryder home
and the bullet which killed Mrs. RYDER
was the same caliber as Malette's
wea. He is under arrest.

PHYSICIAN ADVISES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

-Four years ago I had places break
out on my wrist and on my shin which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching them would not seem to
give any relief. When the trouble first
began, my wrist and shin itched like
poison. I would scratch those places
until they would bleed before l could
get any relief. Afterwards the places
would scale over, and the flesh un-
derneath would look red and feverish.
Sometimes 1t would begin to itch until
1t would waken me from my sleep,
and l would have to go through the
scratching ordeal again.
Our physician pronounced it "dry
eczema" l used an ointment which
the doctor gave me. but it did no good.
Then he advised me to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies. AS this trouble has
been in II family for years, and is
considered hereditary, l felt anxious
to try to head 1t off. I got the Cuti-
cura Soap, Ointment and Pills, and
they seemed to be just what I needed.
The disease was making great
neadway on my system until l got
the Cuticura Remedies which have
cleared my skin Of the great pest.
From the time the eczema healed four
years ago, until now, l have never felt
any OF It's pest, and I am thankful to
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment which
certainly cured me. / always use the
'Cuticura Soap for toilet, and l hope
other sufferers from skin diseases will
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment"

WHEN A TONIC
IS NECESSARY
Il You Are Run Down and Debili-
tated the Health Can Only
Be Restored by Building
Up the Blood.

When the body is weak and the blood
thin it is sometimes difficult to find the
aus unless a wasting illness has pre-
ceded the decline in:health.
Obscure influences, something un.
healthful in ones surroundings or work,
may lead to a slow impoverishment OF
the blood and an enfeeblement OF the
whole body. When a serious stage has
been reached there seems to be nothing
that will account for it.
In such cases a complete change Of
climate or of work will sometimes effect
q cure. It takes a long time, however,
and for the great majority of sufferers
Is out of the question.
Mrs. G. P. Boutwell,, of Clear Water,
Mimi, whose husband is a hardware
merchant there, says:
about two years ago, when l was
living at West Union, Iowa, l was all
u down through hard work and worry.
I called a doctor who said I was suffer-
ing from general debility. He treated
me for some time but was unable to
do much for me. l had cold chills all
OF the time and seemed to be nearly
bloodless. l could not keep anything
on my stomach and lived on eggs and
1IllIk iOI SOL1c CIIllc. wy StOIidCI was
sour and the gas on it kept me from
getting much sleep at night. The doc
tors medicine made my stomach feel
worse.
"My father had used DR.. Williams
Pink Pills with benefit and advised me
to try them. After a week or so Icould
notice change. Isoon became stronger,
my appetite came back and the head
aches disappeared. l was then able to
eat without distress and began to domy

not be praised too highly"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are a general

Ing from poor blood Or weakened nerves,
such as sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism,
nervous headache, pale and sallow COM
