The New South Wales government
has not been long in providing its re-
turning soldiers with work One of
the enterprises undertaken with this
object is the cultivation of bananas

crop that yields such a quick return
as the banana and in the present
tiourishing state of the market no
better undertaking could have been
selected, given the right men. 1t is
not work for the lazy. But among the
demobilized troops are plenty of men
who are young. tough and teachable.
Four hundred acres have been taken
as beginning and each settler has II
months probation before a black Is

UNCLE SANS GAME RESERVE
Island of Afognak, on South Coast Of
Alaska, Peculiarly Adapted for
the Purpose.

One of the most picturesquely in
teresting parts Of our national do
main is large island off the south
coast of Alaska. It Is called Afognak
ana Is about 60 miles long by 40 in
width, with very irregular shore line
and deeply indented by bays
1t is the property of the government.
ana in 1892 was set aside by President
Harrison as game and fish reserve.
The important purpose that 1t serves
Is that of preserve for salmon, all
the finest varieties of which run up its
stream In great numbers. at the breed
Ing season to spawn.
Afognak is mountainous island.
OF volcanic origin, its loftiest peak
rising to an elevation of 1900 feet.
In the interior are a number of large
lakes. which are the breeding
grounds of the salmon. One of
these, Letnik lake, is seven miles long.
and on its shore is located a big gov
ernment fish hatchery.
In the days of long ago. before the
United States bought Alaska. the sal
mon fishery Of Afognak was operated
by the Russian-American company,
which established on the island a col
ony of its superannuated and pensioned
employees. These were Aleuts, whose
descendants today compose the native
population, somewhat more than 400,
though their blood is much mixed.

Good news bears repeating, and
when it is confirmed after a long
lapse of time, even if we hesitated to
believe it at first hearing, we feel Sc
cure in accepting its truth now. The
following experience of an Ellsworth

Frank E. Fernald, Waltham St.,

trouble with my back and could
hardly stand the pain. 1t was hard
for me to stoop over or straighten
up. l had read a great deal about
Doan's Kidney Pills and got sup
ply. 1t took only one box to bene-
fit me. l have since had return
symptoms of the trouble but Doan's S
Kidney Pills procured at E. G..
Moore's Drug Store again gave me
immediate relief"
Twelve Years Later, Mr. Fernald
said: "Colds settling on my kidneys
sometimes disorder them, but l can
rely on Doan's Kidney Pills to re-
lieve me. The satisfactory expert
ences 1 have had with Doan's S
strengthened my faith in them and
recommend them more highly than
ever"

No stomach dosing. Hyomei is
made chiefly of oil of eucalyptus taken
from the eucalyptus forests of inlaud
Australia. andcombined with other ex-
cellent antiSeptics.
In inland Australia the atmosphere
is so impregnated with balsam thrown
out by the eucalyptus trees that germs
do not thrive and in consequence
coughs, colds, catarrh and other nose

unknown.
Breathe Hyomei and get the same
