ALASKA'S MAGAZINE.
The Vl&ska-Yukon MtguliH1, ui;
der the able editorial management of
John \V. Troy is improving with
?>ach succeeding number. This pub
li cation is now owned and controlled
?u its entirety by Alaskans, and is a
true exponent of Alaskan thought and
sentiment. It is published in Seattle
for the rt^ason that that place is the
\laska news center at the present
Ume and for the added reason that
H is the most available poiut to have
magazine work done for this section
of the world.
It is another instance of Seattle's
shameful ingratitude that it is not more
generously supported than it is at
the present moment bj Seattle's busi
ness world. It is also blind penury
that fails to see the advantages
which would result from a liberal
patronage of Alaska publications by
the commercial interests that claim
the bulk of the Alaska business.
HER NEW GOWN.
It Was Comfertabl* Even if It Didn't
Hang Just Right.
Miss Amanda Jones, who possesses
the artistic temperament in a very
high degree. Is as careless as a Illy of
the field *? to her attire. Not lone
ago. being away from home ami far
from the watchfuUeyes of her family,
?he selected and purchased an eveninc
gown for herself and wore It on sev
eral occasions with treat comfort and
satisfaction. Shot y after her return
to her home she wa< Invited to a re
ception and decided that it would bo a
good opportunity to wear her self se
lected sown. Accordingly she put It
on and presented herself complacently
for family Inspection.
"What is the matter with your
dress?" asked her sister, eying her
critically. "It hikes up in the most
idngnlar way In the back ami seems
to be too long tn the front."
"I've always thought it looked very
nice." said Miss Jones, with an air of
eJiagrin
"But it d.vsn't fit," exclaimed the
ulster, still examining the garment at
tentively. "Is that the way yon've
always worn It?" was the next ques
tion. uttered In a despairing tone.
"Yes. of coarse How else could 1
wear It?" wa* the ri>sponse. "And It
Is so comfortable, with plenty of room
In the back for my shoulder blades.
And. then. I like a gown to fasten In
front Why. what's the matter?"' a*
her sister covered her face with ber
hands and sat down abruptly. "I>
yon see anything wrong with It?"
"Xo. no, no." said her sister. sha\*v

Who Owns tho Falkland Islantf*'
Pew people are aware to this 3s:
ftiat the Falkland Islands are marked
1n all Argentine maps ami geographic
as "unlawfully retained by Great Brl.
*in." The origin of the dispute was
that England after abandoning the
islands In 1774 resumed possession ir
182!> The Argentine government pro
tested and, as A. Stuart Pennington
points out In his book on the country.
Is even today "careful to do nothing
which could even apparently recognize
the rights of the present possessors '"
It \ra$ for that reason that It declined
a proposal a few years ago to run a
line of Argentine ships to the Islands.
Midnight Conversation.
Yeast? 1 read today that glowworms
w* mnch more brilliant when a storm
la coming than at other times.
Crimson beak? Indeed! Do you know
where 1 can get a glowworm ?
??What for?"

Peculiarity of Sea Otter Fur.
"This collar," said a furrier, "Is sea
otter skin, the costliest fur known.
Sliver fox, beside sea otter. Is cheap.
Where you would pay $1,000 for a sil
ver fox skin you'd pay $2,000 for n sofi
otter. It Is only the Russians, the
world's preHtest fur lovers, who fro In
for this most precious of all furs. ,

Father, Mother and Child had It for
8 Months. Heads Mass of Sores.
Could Not Sleep. Itching Ter
rible. Cured in 2 Months.
"The Cuticura treatment him abso
lutely cured mo and family of ?wnm
which I, mv wif? and two- year-old child
had for eight months. It started with
small pimpl??s >>n the head of my child
which gradually broke out in sores. and
it was not long U>fore I and my wife got
the same. Our heads were one mass of
sores. we could n.^t sleep and the itching
was terril>l'\ We suffered for eight
months. We tried different kinds of
ointments and medicine but it did us no
good and s.>or ;t began to break out on
ourbodi.K mtil a friend who had the
same trouble told me about Cuticura of
which I us-^ I two sets of Cuticura Soap,
Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Hesol

first few days our heads began to heal
and in two months we were absolutely
cured of this terrible eftema. Kugene

No stronger evidence than this could
be given of the suco>ss and economy of
the Cuticura Kemedi'* In the treatment
of torturing. disfiguring humors of the
skin and scalp, of infants, children and
adults. A single hot bath with Cuticura
Soap sn 1 a cntle anointing with Cuti
cura Ointment are often sufficient to
afford immediate relief in the most dis
tressing cas?'s and permit rest and sleep
when all eke fails. Cuticura Soap and
Ointment an1 equally effective in pre
serving. purifying and beautifying the

preventing minor eruptions becoming
