A TRIPLE CURE BY

"About ten years ago my scalp be
came badly affected with sore and
itching humors, crusts, etc., and extend
ing down behind the ears. My hair
came out in places also. I was greatly
troubled; understood it was eczema.
Tried various remedies, so called, with
out effect. Saw your Cuticura adver
tisement, and got them at once. Ap
plied them as to directions, etc., and
after two weeks, I think, of use, was
clear as a whistle.
"I have to state also that late last
fall, October and November, 1904, I
was suddenly afflicted with a bad erup
tion, painful and itching pustules over
the lower part of the body. I suffered
dreadfully. In two montns, under the
skilful treatment of my doctor, con
joined with Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment, I found myself cured.
"Six years ago my son was laid up
?with a severe cold, a hard cough, and
finally painful eruption all over the
body. I procured the Cuticura Remedies
as soon as possible, and after his faith
ful use of same was as well as ever in
twq weeks, as well as I can recall. He
has never had a return of the illness,
as far as I know.
" I have always been pleased to com
mend the Cuticura Remedies, and testify
as to their efficacy. I am a veteran of
the late Civil War, '61? *65, between
seventy and eighty years of age. Yours

Says Yukon's Beet 19 To
Come
"In about five years the Yukon will
reach its best years insofar as the
quantity of its gold production is con
cerned." Those were the wo'ds of
William S'oan, member of the Domin
ion parliament for the Atlin-Comox dis
trict, who arriued yesterday from the
interior after a visit to Dawson and
Atlin.
Mr. Sloan is an old Klon lifer. He
went into the Yukon in 18%, the year
before the stampede, and was one of
the first stakers on F.ldorado, and the
first claim owner on that creek who
found pay. This is his first trip into
the interior in seven years, when he
sold his property and came the outside
for good and all.
In speaking of his recent visit, Mr.
?Sloan said;
"The tremenduous success that has
followed the introduction of dredges
into the Klondike has immensely in
creased the gold producing area. The
dredges that have been operating in
there this year are doing splendid work.
They are all making very big money#
Consequently, all kinds of grounds are
being staked? grounds that were aban
doned long ago.
"It is est imated that there will be 100
dredges in operation in the Klondike
within three years if the factories can
turn them out in time for shipment.
That is now oneof the difficulties. The
makers of dredges cannot supply the
demand.
"The Rothchild people will put in
three dredges next year in addition to
those whic1! they are using with such
great success now.
"The best producing days of the
Yukon are of the future.-'
Mr. Sloan says the present will be
the banner year for Atlin. He says
the steam shovel which the Guggen
heim* sent in there ought to be at work
on Tar flats now.
Mr Sloan i? accompanied by his
wife. Tbey will leave on the Princesa
Beatrice tomorrow and ?top at Wran
gell, from which place they will make
a trip up the Stickine. Mr. Moan will
also visit Kaien island, the proposed
western terminus of the Grar.d Trunk
Pacific, before returning to his home
at Nanaimo.
