Fruit and Vegetable
Season
FRESH FRUIT and VEGETABLES is the hardest
kind of goods to handle in Alaska at a profit and special
care and knowledge of how to select and pack goods is a
life study. As each year is added to our experience we dis
cover former defects in handling this line of goods and this
year we are better prepared than ever before to supply the
northern trade.
All orders intrusted to me will have my personal at
tention. YOURS TRULY,

Suffered Severely With Eczema All
Over Body ? Examined 15 Times
by Government Board Who Said
There Was No Cure ? An Old
Soldier Completely Cured. ?
A THOUSAND THANKS
TO CUTICURA REMEDIES
"For over thirty-five years I was a
severe sufferer from eczema. The erup
tion was not confined to any one place.
It was all over my body, limbs,
and even on my head. _ I am sixty
years old and an old soldier, and have
keen examined by the Government
Board over fifteen times, and they said
there was no cure for me. I have
taken all kinds of medicine and have
spent large sums of money for doctors,
without avail. A short time ago I
decided to try the Cuticura Remedies,
and alter using two cakes of Cuticura
Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment,
and two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent,
two treatments in all, I am now well
and completely cured. A thousand
thanks to Cuticura. I cannot speak
too highly of the Cuticura Remedies.

Co., Ohio, July 17, 1905."

That Cuticura Soap is the best baby
soap in the world for cleansing and
purifying the skin, and that Cuticura
Ointment is of priceless value for
soothing and healing itching, tortur
ing. and disfiguring eruptions. A single
application of Cuticura Ointment, pre
ceded by a warm bath with Cuticura
Soap, gives instant relief, and refreshing
sleep for skin-tortured babies, and rest
for tired mothers. Bathe the af
fected parts with hot water and Cuti
cura Soap, to cleanse the surface of
crusts and scales and soften the thick
ened cuticle; dry without hard rub
bing, and apply Cuticura Ointment
freely, to allay itching and inflamma
tion, and soothe and heal.
