 Kidney disease often advances so rapidly that many a person is firmly in it's grasp before aware of it's prog ress. Prompt attention should be given the slightest symptom of kid ney disorder. If there is dull pain in the back, headaches, dizzy spells or a tired, worn-out feeling, or if the kidney secretio1s are offensive, irregular and attended with pain, procure a good kidney remedy at once.
 Thousands recommend Deans Kidney Pills.
 J. w. Holman, retired police judge, Richmond Ave, Dayton, Washing ton, says: Tt seemed as though every time I caught a cold it set tied in my kidneys and caused lame back. At times when I had an at tack I could hardly get out of a chair because of the severe pains in the small of my back. The kidney secretions passed too often and caus- ed me to get up nights. I suffered from pains in the back of my head, too. Doan's Kidney Pills soon drove the pain out of my back and made my kidneys act like clockwork."

W. P Hopping, L. S. Mellinger. S. W. Wilson, R. M. Mason, Hiram Hopping, of Tacoma and E. NJ. AL drich, of Spokane, of the Alaska Endicott Mining Company recently returned from an inspection trip to the property.
 Experience New.
 With MT. Hopping and Mellingsr the trip is a new experience and they are both greatly impressed with the country as they have seen it.
 You have a great country with UmitIess possibilities for develop ment." they said. We have en- loved every moment of our visit, and especially the trip to William Henry Bay. where we have witness ed the initial operation of the con- centration plant of the Alaska-Endi- colt mine. We feel that this proper ty is destined to play an important part in the prosperity and develop ment of Juenau and the vicinity, and We expect to see a town of several hundred people at William Henry Bay in the near future.
 Present Operations.
 eve have completed the first unit of our concentration plant, which with the addition of ball mill is expected to give up a daily capa- city of I5O tons. Nature has done a great deal for this mine in the way of giving 1t an exceptional To- cation for economical operation. It was very satisfactory to us to be able to check up and verify the in-

MAY RETARD DRILLING
Transportation Handicaps Form Principal Cause For Delay-High Pass Back Kanatak Slows Up Hauling Operations-On Engi- neers Confident of Production.

That drilling by the Standard and Associated Oil Companies in the Cold Bay field will be delayed sometime and will probably not be- gin before June, next year, is the opinion expressed by arrivals in Se- attle from Kanatak.
 Transportation handicaps form the principal cause for delays en- countered by the oil interests. The route to the field from Kanatak leads directly over a high pass back of Kanatak which greatly cuts down the operating capacity of the trac- tors used in hauling freight. Owing to the steep grade over this pass, each tractor is limited to two tons per load. The Standard Oil alone has about 700 tons to be freighted in to the claims and has but two machines available for the work. Both companies are now transp 1rt- ing their equipment and supplies 10 the scene of future drilling.
 There is little question as to the bringing in. of producing wells in the, opinion of the oil engineers on the ground There, is some talk by them and others of a refinery being established there by the Standard oil Company but nothing definite could be learned about the matter.
 There are about 15O men at Kan .natak. There is no demand for local labor and any stampede to the district at this time, would be in- advisable Persons going there this winter should be prepared to take care of themselves as no work will be available. Some stalking is gO- ing on westward of the peninsula, in the direction Of Chignik. and when drilling starts next spring ii is expected there will be q consid- erable rush.

Nellie Cashman, superwoman of Alaska, is in Seattle to raise money | to develop mining properties on No Ian creek, in the Koyukuk section. She has raised part of the money in the interior of Alaska
 Nellie Cashman is the oldest pio- neer in Alaska today having first visited the Territory in 1875, near ly half century ago, and since that date has been engaged in the mer- cant!le and mining business in sey- eral of the more prominent Alas kan camps, achieving a reputation for successful business deals
 Away back in the early seventies, when Miss Cashman was consider ably younger than she is at the pres ent time, she was a resident of Vir- glnia City, made famous by its mines and by Mark Twain. She went to Victoria, and hearing that a strike was on in the Caesiar district, and that about l5O men were down with the scurvy, she, with um- Der of companions, left Victoria with supplies and medicines to sue cor the distressed minerS. The party landed at what was then Ft. Wran- gell, Alaska, and worked their way up to the Cassiar. Her mission be- ing accomplished, she returned to Arizona, after remaining in the Koyukuk for three years. In 1897 she returned to Alaska, going over the trail to Dawson, from Dawson removing to Fairbanks, where she engaged in the mercantile business With a great success, financially.
 After putting in several years in the interior metropolis, Miss Cash man located some valuable claims on Nolan creek, in the Koyukuk dis trict. The Koyukuk has been one of the territory's heaviest gold produ- cers, averaging about $3OO,OOO an nuaIly, and Nolan creek, where Miss Cashmau's claims are located pro- duclng a like sum yearly. A shaft is being sunk on this property, which is called the Midnight Sun Mining company, with Miss Cashman as manager. The company has no of fcers and no offices, but is being conducted on business principles by Miss Cashman who has had years of experience at the mining game. So far, she has spent none of the money received from stock sales, saving every dollar accumulated to develop the ground.
 Miss Cashman is a thorough pros pector and miner, having followed the business In the largest camps in the states, where she amassed a considerable fortune before com- ing to Alaska. The call of the wild is still strong within her breatst and she would not trade Alaska as a home for any country under the sun.-Alaska Dispatch.

MOVEMENTS OF
 STUDENT LEARNED

London, Dec. 12.-M. Yenizelos, former Greek premier, who is just now very much in the public eye and is something of a mystery to the British people, has an equally mysterious young secretary, a tall dark youth named Andrea Constan- tino Michelopoulos.
 He was an undergraduate at Ariel College, Oxford, until a few monthes ago, always Immediately dressed and a brilliant scholar. His studies, however, did not prevent his participations in politics, and he frequently obtained permission to spend a night away from college ostensibly on domestic affairs. Lt has since trauspired, however, that such trips included flying to Paris by airplane and returning the fol- lowing day.
 Michelopoulos left Oxford a few weeks before the TinoCoup, but ar rived in Greece only in time to es- cape on board VonizelOs private yacht. Before coming Go Oxford he had been Civil Goveruor of Lemnos, Prefect of Eastern Mace donia, and had served in tbe Greek Army.

Answer-A shift such as you suggest
is in the nature of speculation, but,
on the other hand, it is difficult to
draw the line always between legiti-
mate and necessary revision of list
OF securities and an attempt more or
Less continuously to buy and sell Sc
eurities Gu in the hope of making profit.
The distinction in a general way is
made by the attitude of mind of the
holder of the securities. Attempt
ing to assume the attitude of
mind of one who is not try
ing to make a profit, but to revise a
list Of investments in the light of pres
ent business conditions, we think that
you might sell the Du Pont 71zs, the
Atlantic Refining 61zs, Standard Oil
of California rs, Standard Oil of New
York preferred, Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul common and the Third Liberty
loans Our reasoning in making this
suggestion is, in the case Of the Du
Pont 71ss, that you can take advantage
OF the market to shift from a business
mans investment to a more conserva-
tive one, with comparatively small
additional amount Of money, without
loss of income. We suggest Diamond
Match 7l4s, due 1896. In the case Of
Atlantic Refining and the two Standard
Oils we follow your own reasoning.
In the case of the Chicago, Milwaukee
g. st. Paul the advice is simply that
Of getting out of speculation into
an investment, and in the case of the
Third Liberty loans a shift Nom a
short-term to long-term bond, With
the proceeds Of these five securities

every prospect Of increased military

The government is beginning to re-

Data just received from Czecho-
Slovakia give striking illustration of
the interior and exterior incongruitics
IN the purchasing power of currency
due to government control rather than
bank note imitation, as in France. Con-
iidence was shaken after the armistice
by the continued state Of interference
with private enterprise, not only in re-
strlcting all exchange dealings to ac-
tual necessities, but also in establish
ing maximum prices. AS result the

this being less than one.fifth of its in
terror buying power.
During the last year this socialistic
system was abandoned in favor of
commercial liberty. From that time
the crown has steadily appreciated in
real value until now it is selling at "a
centimes. A -urther rise to 35 CEN
times would bring prices to the level
prevailing in France. A reduction in
flduciary circulation from the present
amount, 11,06S, 100000 crowns, would
be necessary to raise exchange nearer
the gold basis. This would make pos
slole debt equalling only 100000 :

SO far as the United States is con-

that restoration Of stable economic
conditions in international commerce
which must be accomplished il the
world is to return to normal activity

of oil countries have suffered alike,
although in varying degree in differ

fARlS, Feb. IA state of calm has
replaced tho frenzied excitement pre-
Valllng over tho Cannes conference As
sentiment grows that the new govern
ment is strong enough to compromise
with England without sacrificing vital
interests. There is deep feeling that
no new alliance will be ratified which
might reduce Frances chances Of even
tually recovering the equivalent of 6s,-
oo0,o00,000 gold marks This hope
maintains internal credit stability,
bringing an additional billion francs
monthly in subscriptions to treasury
bills AS long as the expectation of
eventfuI reimbursement remains the
funds of the people will remain at home
instead of seeking berths outside at an
equally favorable rate.
The new Credit Rationale loan lust
launched, yielding 6.22 per cent, is re-
ceiving heavy subscriptions. Govern
ment bonds generally have been strong
lately because Of their security and
high interest return, but the remainder
of the market has declined heavily due
to the fall in wholesale prices, which
are expected to continue downhill for
many years to come. The steady rise
in the franc reflects general confidence
in Frances determination to stabilize
her money on an ascending scale.
In October, 1919, the danger Of un-
backed currency imitation WAS realized,
but for two years the treasury was so
overtaxcd by demands that it was pos
sible only to maintain the status quo,
