Boy Scouts
 Fire Fighters

Fire was observed yesterday be- tween Lower Dewey Lake and Ice Lake The local patrol of Boy Scouts under their patrol leader Jack Kirmse went up on the hill and fought the fire for several hours. They succeeded in subduing it, but did not get it completely put out. If they had had the assistance of two or three men for a few hours they would have accomplished what they set out to do.
 The action of the boys is especial ly commendable and in keeping with the best traditions of the Boy Scout movement. It is to be regretted that the fire was not wholly eXtinguished, for while there is no great amount of standing timber to be burned, there is the growth or small timber and bushes which add a pleasant variety to the eye as one is travelling to Ice lake. How the fire started no one seems to know. It is probable that some one made fire for heat ing coffee and went off without put ting it out. If all would take care to build fires on solid ground and not on the moss or peat formation little water would put tkem out when desired. In the moss or peat they will shoulder for days ana fin ally start up to do lot of damage. Skagway can ill afford to permit fires to run over its already denuded and barren hillsides.
 The Boys who participated in this work were: Jack and Dan Kirmse. Donald Mulvihill, Elmer Rasmuson, Allen Whitfield, Stuart Larson, Phil p Gault, Visitor Selmer and Lawrence Wells.

IN | BAD NAY
Many a Skagway Reader Will Feel
 Grateful for This Information.

If your back gives out;
 Becomes lame, weak or aching:
 If urinary troubles set in,
 Perhaps your kidneys are "in bad way"
 Don't delay-use Doan's Kidney Pills.
 Here is good evidence of their worth.
 Mrs. Henry Larsen, sO5 John Adams St., Oregon City, Ore, says: ''I have been more or less subject to backache for several years. It used to be so bad I couldn't rest night or day. When was on my feet great deal, my back would ache like a tooth ache. would lay for hours at night and couldn't get to sleep on ac- count of the constant pain in my kidneys. My kidneys were very ir- regular apd at times acted too free ly. l felt all played out and had no ambition to do anything. The least eXertion made me tired and nervous. Since have been taking Doan's Kid ney Pills my back feels stronger and my kidneys act more naturally. I have found Doan's Kidney Pills ben eflCial in every way and can rec ommend them to anybody as a reme- dy of merit"
 Price COG, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Larsen had. Foster-Milburn Co.,, Mfrs, Buffalo, N. r.
