There is more Catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years dot:
tors pronounced it a local disease an
prescribed local remedies, and by con
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Selene
has proven catarrh to bo a constitu
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. It is taken internally in doses
from to drops to a teaspoonful. It
acts directly on the blood and mucou
surfaces of the system. They offer
oue hundred dollars t'or any case It
fails to cure. Send for circulars and

HIDDEN DANGERS.
Nature Gives Timely Warnings That
No Alaska Citizen Can Afford
to Ignore.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 1 comes j
frort the kidney secretions. They will
warn you when the kidneys are sick.
Well kidneys excrete a clear, amber
fluid. Sick kidneys send out a thin,
pale and foamy, or a thick, red. ill- ]
smelling urine, full of sediment and
irregular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Pack pains, dull and
heavy, or sharp and acute, tell you of;
sick kidneys and warn you of the ap
proach of dropsy, diabetes and
Rright's disease. Doan's Kidney Pills
cure sick kidneys and cure them per
manently.
Theodore Josephson, 515 Seventh;
St., Astoria, Oregon, says: "About
five years ago I used Doan's Kidney
Pills and derived groat benefit. At
that time I was suffering from se
vere pains across my back and loins,
at times so severe that I was unable
to stoop or straighten. My kidneys
1 also bothered me a great deal, the se
cretions generally being too frequent
in passage. At last Doan's Kidney
Pills were brought to my attention
I and I procured a box. I used them
anil as a result my health is now ex
cellent. I take a few doses of Doan's
Kidney Pills now and then, when
feeling any sign of backache arid they
never fail to banish the trouble."

Tlie marriage of Miss Stella Maud
Jones to the Rev. Henry T. Atkinson,
pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
churches of Juneau and Skagway, is
announced to take place on Tuesday
morning, the 1 Ith of May, at 10 o'
clock, at the Methodist Episcopal
church of Skagway.
Owing to the fact that Mr. Atkin
son and Miss Jones have so many J
friends in both Juneau and Skagway.
and by the request of those of I
Skagway, it was decided to have the
marriage take place publicly in the
church, and for the same reuson no
formal invitations are being issued.
Mulllc turned red as a beet, rose
from the table and without a word
left the room. II<>r aunt sat fanning
herself angrily. 1 waited develop
ments. They came In t'me.
"Did you see what she was doing?"
she asked me.
"So."
"Cheating."
"(Jood gracious!"
"Only seventeen, and she can deal a
pack of cards to put a good hand
wherever she likes."
"But what was her object? She was !
having splendid hands."
"H'm! She dealt them to herself."
I settled up my score, paying 34 I
cents, and bade my hostess good even
ing.
"You won't say anything about this?"
she said.
"Certainly not."
Nor was I likely to tell that I had |
been playing cards for money and one i
of the players had cheated. For the ;
next week or two I lived in dread lest j
the matter should leak out. I suffered
in another way. Somewhere down in
my heart there was a disappointment.
One day I met Mollle on the street.
If the act wouldn't have been notice
able I should have crossed before
meeting her. She spoke to me smll- i
ingly and said:
"Auntie Is waiting for you to come
in agaiu and play bridge."
"H'm!" I stammered. ' Who Is to tako
the other hands?"
"I am the only one unless some one i
happens In."
"Have you and your aunt made up j
that"?
"Oh, yes. She has forgiven me."
"H'm! Have you forgiven your- j
self?""
She looked up at me with an Inno- j
cent expression that would have gone j
to my heart except for the sin. i
"There's nothing to forgive."
