To Put On Flesh
And Increase Weight
A Physicians Advice.

Most thin people eat from four to
six pounds of good solid fat-making
food every day and still do riat in.
crease in weight one ounce, while on
! the other hand many of the plump,
chunky folks eat very lightly and
keep gaining all the time. It's all
bosh to say that this is the nature OF
the Individual It isn't natures way
lat all.
Thin folks stay thin bAcause their
powers OF assimilation are defective.
They absorb just enough OF the food
they eat to maintain life and SEM
blance Of health and strength. Stuff
ing won't help them. A dozen meals
a day won't make them gain single
"stay there" pound. All the fat-pro-
ducing elements Of their food just
stay In the intestines until they pass
from the body as waste. What such
people need is something that VIII
prepare these fatty food elements so
that their blood can absorb them and
deposit them all about the body
something. too, that will multiply
their red corpuscles and increases
their blood's carrying power.
For such a condition ! always rec
ommend eating a Sargol tablet with
every meal. Sargol is not, as some
believe, patented drug, but is a
scientific combination Of six G. the
most effective and powerful flesh
building elements known to chemis-
try. 1t is absolutely harmless, yes
wonderfully effective and a single
tablet eaten with each meal often has
the effect OF increasing the weight Of
thin man or woman from TIRES to
five pounds week. Sargol is sold by
Wilkinson & Co., and other good
druggists everywhere on a positive
guarantee of weight increase or mon
ey back.

THE COMING CONVENTIONS.

THE Fairbanks Times, as an argu'
 ment in favor of holding the
 Democratic Territorial conven. tion at Fairbanks, says that the coast towns are not to be relied upon for satisfactory results"
 The unfavorable results that have come from conventions in Alaska, both Democratic and Republican. have not been because they were held at any particular place or places. The trouble is with the system.
 The situation in Alaska demands the passage of primary election laws. The political parties of Alaska, like those elsewhere. should be placed in the hands of the people. That cannot be done in any other way than to permit the voters of the Territory to select the candidates for office as they now do in most of the States.
 The duty before the Democrats is to ascertain Che sentiment of the peo- pie of Alaska as nearly as that is pos. sible, and to offer a program that will give expression to it. The place of holding the last nominating conven- tion is not material

COLORADO SHOULD ENFORCE
 LAWS WITHOUT FAVOR
(New York World.)

N-NCN lOAh NOLlusl
 If such an atrocity as that reported in Colorado had been chargeable to Villa or Huerta in Mexico the whole country would have been aGame at the horror of it. Whole families have been wiped out as q result of a strike war between mine guards and militia men on one side and miners on the other. Of the dead and wounded the majority are women and children.
 There could be no such massacre as this if the State of Colorado had not surrendered it's government to the Rockefeller Fuel and Iron Con- pany. It has done even worse than that. Having permitted the inhabit. ants of a large section of it's territory to carry on hostilities for months, 1t has openly taken sides. Instead of using it's great authority to compel peace and establish justice, 1t has as- sailed the weaker of the antagonists with all the fury of the savages who once roamed its valleys.
 Whatever the rights and wrongs of the quarrel between Mir. Rockefeller and his employees may be, it is the duty of the State of Colorado to en- force it's laws without fear or favor This it has not done It has hidden in cowardly way behind a pretense of martial law. Its own armed agents have been more intent upon serving Rockefeller than upon serving the State.
 Mir. Rockefeller's son recently testi- fled that he was willing to sink his entire investment in Colorado rather than yield to the demand of his em. ployees that they be permitted to or

JUNEAU THEATRE.

The pictures shown at the Juneau theatre last night were the best me. chanically th&t have been produced since it's opening.
 Like all pieces of machinery, a nov ing picture machine has to get down to it's bearings before 1t will do per feet work. Under the skilful adjust ment of the operator this is now being accomplished and the pictures shown last night rivalled those given any where in clearness and steadiness.
 Mrs. Falkenstein's singing was also greatly enjoyed.
 The same program will be given to- night, and 1t is well worth the price of admission.
 Good music; admission, 25c; chil- dren, 1Oc; two shows nightly: 7:So and g o'clock.
