YUKON PROHIBITION.

Saloons will be a thing of the past in the Yukon territory after two more years. for it is reported that one of the last acts of the legisla ture of the territory was to pass a law prohibiting saloons at the end of that time. The law provides, it is understood, that bars in hotels will be permitted to continue, though they will be subject to strict limita- tions.
 As long as there will not be ab- solute prohibition, it is not expected that the people of the Yukon terri tory will object much to the new law. Indeed there seems to be a growing sentiment in many places against saloons, which has been brought about by the methods em- ployed by some of the saloon owners and keepers. If one saloon in a community is conducted in dis graceful manner. all the other sa- looms must share in the public ill will that the one establishment is responsible for, and it is to this class of irresponsible saloon men that blame is due for the growing tendency to restrict the sale of liq uors almost everywhere.
 To be absolutely just. it would seem that laws regulating the sale of liquors should be local, and not general, for in every locality the tendency of the people differs. In some communities the residents seem to know how to regulate the liquor traffic in such a way that no complaints are made, and in those where prohibition is demanded, It should be granted. Thus if each community is permitted to make it's own laws in that regard, subject, however, to higher laws. there would be more satisfaction everywhere. The local option law where tried, has proved quite successful, and if congress is to make laws governing the sale of liquors in Alaska, an eff fort will probably be made to per init each locality to determine if it shall have saloons or prohibition.

AT TABERNACLE LAST NIGHT
CONTINUED from Page ~

Right here we get Christ's ideas OF
sociology and his sarcasm against
these self-righteous Pharasees who
had rejected him because he had gone
to dine with publicans and sinners.
and because the Mary whom they
supposed to be a fallen woman had
touched and annointed his feet for
the gratitude that was in her heart
because he had forgiven her sins and
cleansed her life, and had made her
as though she had never been a sim
ner, This is so. or sociology is a farce
but the Pharasees didn't know and
recognize such work to be possible
So Jesus ate with sinners when the
old self-righteous church members
turned him OUT
DR.. Bulgin outlined his sermon
saying. From this chapter l see there
are four ways for the soul to be lost:
First. lost like sheep; second. lost
like the coin: third, lost like the boy
who went astray. and fourth, lost like
the boy that stayed at home.'

LESS MEAT IF BACK
AND KIDNEYS HURT
TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS IF BI.AD-
DER BOTHERS You.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or other, says a well-known au-
thority, because the uric acid in meat
excites the kidneys, they become
overworked; get sluggish: clog up and
cause all sorts of distress, particular
ly backache and misery in the kid
ney region; rheumatic twinges, Sc
we're headaches. acid stomach. con-
stipation. torpid liver. sleeplessness.
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or IL
bladder bothers you. get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice. combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize
the acids in the urine so it no longer
irritates, thus ending bladder disor-
ders
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone:
makes delightful effervescent lith-
a-water drink which millions OF men
and women take now and then 10 keep
the kidneys and urinary organs clean,
thus avoiding serious kidney disease.

sheep. for in all the world nothing is
so hopeless and helpless as a lost
sheep. and on the other hand 1t is
hard to lose a dog, hog or horse, or
bee. With pointed illustration he
showed how these would go home
but the sheep never until the shep.
herd took it up and carried it back.
The second point was. 'lost like a
coin" DIR. Bulgin showed from Eid-
ersheim, who is the best authority on
Jewish customs. that this coin was
the drachma, one of the betrothal
coins from the necklace and stood for
the purity of the party entering into
the engagement Therefore the wo-
man sought it diligently on the dirt
floor of her eastern home, for the
tradition said If the coin be lost the
husband would no longer be faithful
1T was only coin. it was lost, II
couldn't walk or choose to come
back, 1t had to be sought" said the
speaker, "and is a striking picture OF
the hardened sinner who will not
move to Christ, who gets glued to the
world. This coin lays particular
stress on the value of a human soul,
for Christ came to redeem the lost
and with the broom of his church to
sweep through Pendleton to save lost
souls"
Third point. Lost like a boy who
went away"
This Is still occurring" said DR.
Bulgin. "Boys and girls go away
from home and won't return. God
can't save a sinner against his Will
