An Easy Way To Reduce
Flesh.
Drink Hot Water and Take Tassco.

Drink Hot Water and Take Iassco.
Haven't you often wished for a
medicine to reduce your flesh? Some
thing that does not require dieting
or calisthenics? Well, right here you
have it in 5-grain tassco tablets,
which you may secure at Dawson
Drug Co., and Williams Pharmacy,
Shellman. They are pleasant to take,
perfectly harmless and cause no re-
strictions of habit or eating, and re-
duce the flesh, little by little, until
you are down to the number of
pounds you wish to weigh. Too much
flesh is undesirable, as most quite
stout people will readily admit, and
it detracts from ones good appear
ance; make one clumsy and short of
breath.
There isn't any reason why anyone
should be too stout, when there's
this much-tried, perfectly satisfac-
tory remedy at Dawson Drug Co.,
and Williams Pharmy, Shellman.
Tassco tablets don't forget the
nancy are recommended by physi-
clans and are guaranteed to be per-
fectly harmless. Refuse substitutes,
if you can not come to our store, we
will mail tassco to you.

other large issues.
Hundreds of banks, the Federal Re

1t is possible that the issue will be
enlarged to permit all banks who wish
to subscribe to do so. To avoid de-
rangement of the money market, Sec
retary McAdoo has decided not to have
the proceeds sent either to Washing

between the French and the Germans
all along the southern front in France.
The French War Office, in late COM

for the forces of General Nivelle north
of the Aisne, in Champagne and in the
Argonne forest.
More than 10000 Germans have been
made prisoners and guns in excess of
100 have been captured by the French
since the offensive began last week
Between St. Quentin and the Disc
there has been great activity by both
artilleries, particularly in the region
to the north of Crugies.
"To the north of the Aisne our
troops, harassing the enemy, have con-
tinued to progress toward the Chemin
des Danes. We have occupied the
village of Sancy.
"In Champagne we have captured
several important points of support in
the grove of Moronyilliers, notwith-
standing the stubborn resistance of
the enemy.
"He have made, since the 18th of
April, between Scissors and Auberive,
more than $4,000 prisoners. The num-

LIVING COST VARIES
Wide Range of Prices Shown by
Inquiry in Alaska.
High transportation Charges in Some.
Sections Are Responsible-com-
mon Laborers Get Big Wages.

There is probably no region in which
the actual cost of the necessities of life
varies so greatly as it does in Alaska,
according to experts of Uncle Sans
department of agriculture, who have
recently made study of that country
in order to ascertain agricultural and
other information Of interest to the
prospective settlers in that section Of
the United States.
1t is well-known that wages in that
country are high, but, on the other
hand, there are said to be places in
the remote interior to which it costs a
dollar pound to transport provisions
from tidewater; consequently the con-
sumer must pay this freight rate in
addition to the actual value. 1t is said,
however, that at other places in the
coast towns, particularly those nearest
Puget sound cities, provisions can be
obtained at a comparatively small adj
vance on the prices in Seattle.
There are as yet but few laborers
employed in agriculture in Alaska, it
is said. Few of the homesteaders have
money to hire labor, and therefore,
have to depend on their own efforts for
the clearing of their land and the erec-
ton of their buildings. Up to the pres
ent year it is said that the wages for
common labor in Alaska have been
$3.50 a day for eight hours work. As
development progresses there will, Of
course, be more and more demand for
men to do the work. Officials who
made the study say, therefore, that any
young, able-bodied man who is willing
to work at anything he can find to do
can find work somewhere in Alaska, SO
that he not only can make living, but
if he is of a saving disposition he can
lay something aside.
Alaska is not wheat country. The
experts found, however, that certain
varieties of spring wheat have been
grown and can be matured in favorable
seasons in all of the interior valleys,
but wheat does not do its best in these
far northern latitudes. The agricul-
tural experiment stations are now en-
gagged in developing varieties of spring
wheat which will mature in shorter
period of time than those now grown
in the states or in Canada.
