THEY ALL DEMAND IT
Alaska, Like Every Section in the
 Union, Receives It.

People with kidney ills want to be cured. When one suffers the tortures of an aching back, relief is eagerly sought for. There are many remedies today that relieve, but not permanently Deans Kid uey Pills have brought lasting results to thousands. Here is proof of merit from this vicinity:
 F. A. Sutton, tent and awning dealer, Room 6, Capitol Hotel Bldg, Salem, Oregon, says: ''I had Kid ney trouble and rheumatism for ten years and sometimes I was laid up, Doctors did not help me. Sharp pains extended through my back and were most severe in my kidneys and lOins. Often when working, l had to give up. l lost weight and was in very poor health. had headaches, rest ed but little at night and did not know what to do. On a friends ad- vice I tried DOan's Kidney Pills and to my surprise, they brought d great improvement in a few days. l continued to get better steadily. l got more sleep, my appetite improv- ed and the pains gradually, but surely left me. After l had used three boxes of Deans Kidney Pills, I was in better health than had been for ten years and not sign of kidney complaint remained. The cure had been permanent. I gladly confirm the endorsement I gave Doau's Kidney Pills several years ago"

ANIMAL THAT NEVER DRINKS

The Parsees OF Bombay are called
the fire worshipers" Of the east be.
cause they hold in great reverence the
fire they brought with them from Per
sia and have never allowed it to be-
come extinguished in their temples;
and because they worship the sun as
the author Of life,
The Parsees have always held aloof
from other people and are famed for
their commercial ability As conse-
quence Of this ability they are the
wealthiest most cultured and indu-
ential class in Bombay. So numerous
are they that Bombay has been called
the city Of Parsees.
The religion Of the Parsees is one
of the ancient religions of the world,
and was the religion Of Persia when
that country was second in power of
the four great empires of the world
Babylonia, Persia, Greece, Rome.
In great many particulars the re-
ligion Of the Parsees comes nearer to
Christianity than any other Oriental
faith.
