THE WHOLE BODY
NEEDS PURE BLOOD

The bones, the muscles, and all the
organs of the body depend for Their
strength and tone and healthy action
on pure blood.
IF the blood is very impure, the
bones become diseased; the muscles
become enfeebled, the step loses its
elasticity, and there is inability to

WHITE PASS NOT
 RAISING RATES

The Vancouver Sun of recent date says:
 Nothing is known at the local of fices of the White Pass & Yukon fine of a statement published in Victoria and Vancouver to the eff feet that thelr rates from VancouV- CT to Alaska would be increased. Of ficials state that so far as they know the rates will not be changed next year.
 The misunderstanding appears to have arisen as a result of the in- teuticn of the various steamship IiEeq to apply for higher rates. They claim to be operating at cost and making no profit no matter how many passengers they carry and general increases in passenger fares were under consideration.
 Owing to the decision of one of the American lines to allow its rates to remain unchanged for the present the whole thing fell thru and 1t was decided to take no ac- titu towards increasing the fares for the present.
 The White Pass & Yukon railway operates in connection with other lines running steamers to the north. If the steamship lines hda raised their rates the White Pass & Yukon would naturally have been obliged to add a similar amount to their round trio and through fares.
 As the steamship lines are not go ing to charge higher prices there will be no need for the White Pass & Yukon to do so; and officials say they know of no intention to alter The rates. That apparently is the explanation.
 Certainly, they say, there is no intention of altering the fares in Alaska.
 The plan have been completed for the two new steamers to be built for the White Pass X Yukon line for service on Lake Atlin. One of the vessels will be a sternwheel crast, 165 feet long and S5 feet beam. The other will be twin screw vessel, 90 feet long and with Is feet beam.
 H. Wheeler, general manager oi the WLite Pass & Yukon Route, is here today conferring with Eddie Farr, local manager for the system MT. Wheeler confirmed the news that the White Pass people will build a sternwheel steamer and a gasoline vessel for service up north, but corrected the impression that they would be steel vessels. The boats will be of wooden construc- ten and, therefore, cannot be built | in Vancouver and shipped north in sections. However, the line will rIace contracts here for lumber, hardware and other materials.

HERD OF FUR SEALS Is
 A VALUABLE |. s. ASSET
lGeographical Magazine)

Geographical Magazine)
 The most valuable herd of ami mals that any government of the world possesses is that of the fur seals which roam over the eatern side of the North Pacific ocean and return for breeding purposes to the Pribilof islands. After being sadly decimated by indiscriminate slaughter at sea, the herd has been rapidly recuperating under the in fluencc of an international agree mert, and soon the fur seals may pc as numerous as when they came into possession of the United States gov erumcnt with the purchase of Alas ka.
 The fact that the only land to which these animals ever resort is two islets in Boring sea belonging Id the Un,ted States gives our govern ment a claim to possession such as is exercised over no other wild crea- lure Of water, land or air, ,..
 In the summer of 1916 more than 100000 young seals will have been added to the Alaskan seal herd, whose total strength will then be upward of 100000 individuals of all classes. For some years only a linn itef number of seals have been utilized for the food purposes of the natives, but after the present close-time law expires in 1917 there will be available for commer- cial use many young male seals, which add nothing to the reproduct i've capacity of herd and may properly be utilized for cir skins and other products.

WOMEN'SW0E
Alaskan Women Are Finding Relief
 At Last

It seems that women have more than g fair share of the aches and pains that afflict humanity; they must keep up," must attend duties in spite of constantly aching backs, or headaches, dizzy spells, bearing down pains; they must stooQ over, when to stooD means torture. They must walk and bend and work with racking pains and many aches from kidney ills. Keeping the kidneys well has spared thousands of wO- men much misery. Read what one woman says.
 Mrs. NJ. I. Davis, 296 Weidler St, Portland, Ore, says: For years I had a great deal of trouble with my back and kidneys. Sharp pains would catch me and it seemed as if my back was giving out on me. My kidneys acted too frequently, causing much annoyance. Deans Kidney Pills rid me of the pains. My back got strong and well and my kidneys became normal. I have had no severe attacks of that kinA since"
