HAS DONE WELL.
Despite the howl raised in certain
quarters regarding his failure to do
anything for Alaska at the present
session of Congress. James Wicker
aham has made a record equalled by
no former delegate. Important leg
islation for Alaska has been intro
duced, much of It Just what the peo-]
pie have been clamoring for and
there is every prospect of the meas
ures passing. A forceful speaker, a
good "mixer." a man of fine pres-j
eaco and legal attainments. Delegate
Wickersh&m has been able to impress
the national lawmakers where others
have failed. With Governor Hoggatt.
a natural-bora obstructionist, out of
the way. Alaska will indeed have
reason to feel disappointed if Mr.
Wickersham does not accomplish
much during the two years he has
to serve. It was not to be expected
that he could rush through legisla
tion during the first few months of
his term. ??
And anyway, had he done nothing
more than force the resignation of
Wilford B., he would have title to
the everlasting gratitude of the Alas
ka people. ? Juneau Transcript.

NO THEY DON'T? DO THEY?
A prominent woman in the east
recently said that every girl who hail
arrived at the age of eighteen, de
tested men. We have forgotten her
name and have destroyed the paper
with the account of the affair in it.
so some of our eighteen year old
friends won't get hold of It and be
)leve all they read in thenewspapers.
In the first place it has been so long
since this old guinea was eighteen
she has forgotten what heart throbs
/eel Kke, and confounds her valvular
rheumatism with love and then ar
gues that she doesn't like it. A lit
tle more observation on her part and
a little less abstract reasoning might
convince this ancient ice berg that
neither eighteen year old girls, nor
any other year old girls, detest men.
Of course some two-minute ice cream
freezer with a lump of liquid air
where her heart ought to be, might
detest men. but not an eighteen year
old maiden. We know better. That
1?. we did know better long ago be
fore we fell into the sere and yellow
leaf. And the girls know better. ?

SKAGWAY AND SCRIPTURE.
The Skagway Alaskan either has a
most godly or ungodly constituency,
since In each Issue it encourages, or
admonishes, its readers with Script
ural texts and apothegms. We take

ed with the passing of Jefferson Ran
dolph Smith, known in the flesh as
"Soapy," away back in June 1898.
while the "Gateway to tthe Yukon"
was yet wet behind tne ears. ? Ka

"Opportunity knocks but once;
other knockers please copy," says
Elbert Hubbard, and it is a pity that
his advice is not more generally fol

HER FEET WERE

Soles Seemed as Though Covered
with Knife Cuts? Could Not Bear
Weight of Feet Even on Pillow ?
Was Long Unableto Walk? Many
Remedies Failed ? Now Cured.
WILL PRAISE CUTICURA
AS LONG AS SHE LIVES
"Some four years ago I had tho mis
fortune to have my feet get eore. The
doctors could not tell me what it was.
I used everything I could hear or think
of out all to no avail. The feet were
all cracked across tli" bottom as if you
had taken a knife and cut them every
whichway. They would peel up. and.
oh, my! how they did nurt when I
would try to walk ? which 1 was not
ablo to do for a long time. One day
one of our neighbors came to our houso
and asked what was the matter. I
showed him my fret and he said he had
some Cuticura" Ointment which would
heal them up. There was only enough
to apply once, but I found it helped
me so much that 1 sent for a set of
Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and
Cuticura Pills, costing one dollar, and
to my great joy, my feet were cured
and have never troubled me since. I
shall praise Cuticura as long as 1 live
for the grvat help it has bc??n. Mrs.
Margaret Primmer, Plattin, Mo., June
30 and July 21, 1907."

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.
All the olood iu the body passes
through the kidneys once every thre
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood
They work nigt and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter dally, when un
healthy some part of this impure mat
ttr is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms ?
pain in the hack, headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout,
gravel, disorders of the ey jsight aud
hearing, dizziness irregular heart,
debility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
in the urine, etc. But if you keep the
filters right you will have no trouble
with your kidneys.
W. A. Hawkins, 661) Yealer Way,
Seattle, Wash., says: "It gives me
pleasure to confirm the statement I
gave for publication some years ago
in favor of Doan's Kidney Pills as
tho relief I obtained from their use
has proven permanent. I suffered
from an acute attack of kidney trou
tle and though I used remedy after
remedy, I was unable to find relief.
1 had tho most severe pains across
the small of my back and was also
annoyed by irregular passages of the
kidney secretions. Doan's Kidiuy
Fills helped me at once and contiuue
use entirely relieved me. I am a
great advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills
and have recommended them on
many occasions."
