Says His Prescription
Has Powerful influence
Over Rheumatism
Called AIIenrhu

Mr.. James H. Allen. OF rs Forbes St.,
Rochester N. Y, suffered for years
with rheumatism Many times this
terrible disease left him helpless and
unable to work.
He finally decided. after years Of
ceaseless study. that no one can be
free from rheuma tism until the accu-
INFLATED impurities, commonly called
uric acid deposits. were dissolved in
the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely baDished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism from
his system
He freely gave his discovery. which
he called Allenrhu, to others who. took
II, with what might be called mar
veious success. After years of urging
he decided to let sufferers everywhere
know about his discovery through the
newspapers He has therefore instruct
ed Peoples Drug Stores and druggists
everywhere to dispense Allenrhu with
the understanding that IL his prescrip-
tion does not Danish every sign and
symptom Of the disease ne will gladly

DENVER, Feb. 26.-When Presi.

appointing George Alexander Parks
governor Of Alaska, to succeed
Scott C. Bone, he selected young
man who probably knows Alaska
and its frozen spaces better than
any other living man.

nearly fifteen years in Alaska,
mushing hundreds of miles behind
teams of malamutes over the frozen
North Country.
Born i'm Denver.
Parks was born in Denver and
visited here several weeks ago en-
route to Washington from Alaska.
He had no idea then-or, at least,
he gave no inkling to his parents
and friends that he expected. to be
elevated to the governorship of
the Territory of Alaska.
Following his graduation from
the Colorado School of Mines,
George entered the employ OF an
English mining syndicate. He was
assigned to duty in California and
then transferred to Yukon Terri.

Of examining and appraising mining

HE retired from the English
mining concern, returned to Denver
and took the examinations for en-
giner in the Federal Land Offica.
He was appointed to the Denver Of
flee and served here a short time,
but was presently transferred to
Seattle, where he was in charge OF
Alaskan affairs.
Fifteen years ago his headuar'
ters was transferred to Juneau,
and he has been in Alaska ever
since, except for a brief period in
Washington and his service in the
army during the world war.
"1is work as surveyor of mineral
deposits for the Land Office kept
George constantly in the field, and
he spent much time in every new

in Alaska"
Parks was chosen to pilot the
late President Harding's party on

while fairly severe penalties
may be imposed for violation Of the
basic provisions of the national pro-
