STEAMER GOSSIP
OF LOCAL
INTEREST

The closing of the Panama canal
has caused a readjustment of steam
ship routes and sailings upon a
andge and costly scale. Coast to
coast steamers in domestic trade are
routing via Magellan. The steamers
Bennington and Burlington, recently
purchased by the Alaska Steamship
Company of the Rutland Transit Co.,
Ogdensburg, N. Y, will be loaded at
New York and routed via the strait
of Magellan, this longer route
being necessary owing to the closing
of the canal This delay is also I'M
fortunate, as the vessels are badly
needed to handle the immense ship
ments of copper ore from Cordova to
the Tacoma smelter, into which SER
vice they will be placed as soon as
they arrive on this coast.

A BIT OF HISTORY.

Experience has shown that the clos.
ing up of the saloons and the outlaw
ing of the liquor traffic has always
proved a great benefit to every legi-
innate industry. A chapter in the
history of Ireland furnishes a graphic
illustration. During the years 1sO9-1O
and 1894 the distilleries of ireland
were stopped on account of the fam
inc, on the ground that these distil.
leries wasted the grain that might
otherwise be used by the people as
food. The results were surprising
The consumption OF spirits fell of
nearly one-half On the other hand
there was a tremendous increase in
the demand for dry goods. blankets
cotton goods, sugar, hardware. crock
cry. groceries and other necessities
thus showing that year of scarcity

WHEN KIDNEYS ACT BAD

all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
BILE, nervousness, constipation, dizzi-
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full OF
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by sensation of scalding, get
about four ounces Of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water be-

kidneys will then act fine. This fa.

grapes and lemon juice, combined with

longer causes irritation. thus ending
bladder disorders.
