There is more Catarrh in this section Of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For grear
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven Catarrh to be a consti-
tutional disease. and therefore requires
constitutional treatment Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Che icy &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only Ccnstitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful It acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces Of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes-
timonials.

OLD-TIMER AGAIN
 IN CAPITAL CITY

Wes Matlock arrived in Juneau last night on the Mariposa and will re- main here a few days. MT. Matlock did not haul the gravel that forms Chicken Ridge (now known as Cas- tineau Heights) but he was here a long time ago. In 1897 MT. Matlock bought the old log church and con- verted the property into brewery in 1898. However, the placer fever was running high in 1899 and he became infected and sailed for Nome.
 The Seward peninsula metropolis has been his babitat ever since those exciting days and he is now engaged in dredge mining on Solomon river. He is now enroute to his mining in- terests, but will tarry few days in Juneau. Speaking of the town last night he said that he was glad to see the evidences of prosperity that were visible at the present time and ex- pressed the opinion that the people here could not fully appreciate the greatness to which Juneau is destined.

.EAKIN GOES TO
 KOYUKUK AND YUKON

Henry NJ. Eakin, who has been one of the government geologists employed for the past several years in Alaska, passed through on the Mariposa en- route to the interior where he will continue the surveys in the Yukon Koyukuk region. Mir. Eakin will put in the entire season in that locality. He will work from Fort Hamlin, on the Yukon, to Hughes, on the Koyu- kuk, covering that particular section formerly known as the Red Noun. tain district but now known as the In. dian River district. He will then trav- el across country to Ruby.
 Speaking of the Juneau outlook, Mir. Iakin said that this town was des- tined to be a great mining city. The geological department has a very high opinion of the Juneau section. MT. Eakin also said that he had seen some very fine specimens from the Skagway section and other Lynn can. al points. He thinks that all Alaska is due for greater activity than ever and that an era of real prosperity is coming.

 TO IMPROVE CEMETERY

 DOUGLAS, June 10. - At the last meeting of the Douglas Island Civic Improvement Club the question of fencing the cemetery came up for dis. cussion and committee, consisting of Mesdames Robers, Richards, lille, Mccormick and Feusi, and Messrs. Hopp. Galwas, Gnlis, John Hensen and varmaman. was appointed to visit the cemetery with the object of dtermin- ing the possibilities there, and the cost of fencing.
 The results will be reported at a special meeting of the club Wednes. day. June 11th, 1913, at the school house
 The fencing of the cemetery is the one big thing that the club has under taken to do this year and should re- ceiye the support of every citizen, as weu.kept cemeteries are significant of higher civilization.
 At an early meeting of the club this year an amount of $5O.OO was sub scribed as beginning of the cemetery fund, to which individual donations may be added. These donations can be left with John Hensen at his office. The Civic Club hopes to add substan- italy to the original subscription by money raised from a few good enter tainments to be given in the near fu- ture
 The club has also decided to take up the three different lines of work and every one interested in civic af, fairs. literary work, or child's welfare work is requested to be present at the Wednesday evening meeting
 There is much work to be done in all of these lines, particularly in the Child Welfare League It should meet with unlimited interest as it will em. brace so much. Its principal object should be the bringing about of bet ter condition faffairs, regarding play grounds. gymnasiums, etc.
 There are many things to be done for the boys and girls of all ages to interest them in things of higher moral nature: teaching them to read good books; admire good pictures; en' joy good music; see good shows; have good conduct; choose good compan' ions. and become good citizens.
