When Silence Is Deadly.
Silence is commonly th;- sloy poison
used by those who mean to murder
love. There is nothing violent about
it. No shock Is given. Hope is not
abruptly strangled, but merely dreams
of evil and tights with gradually sti
fling shadows. When (lie last convul
sions come they are not terrilic. The
frame has been weakened for dissolu
tion. Love dies like natural decay. It
seems the kindest way of doing a
cru!?l thing.? George Meredith.

Cures that last are cur?s that tell.
To thoroughly know the virtues of a
medicine you must investigate the
cures and see if they prove perma
nent. Doan's Kidney Pills stand this
test, and plenty of proof exists right
here in this locality. People who test
ified years ago to relief from backache
kidney and urinary dlsoruers, now de
clare that relief was permanent and
the cure perfect. Can any Alaskan
sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
J. Prenatt, 311 Third Ave.. N., Se
attle, Wash., says: "The relief I re
ceived from Doan's Kidney Pills over
three years ago, has been permanent
and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm
the public statement I gave in favor
of thp remedy at that time. For two
years I had attacks of tfflckaehe and
my kidneys were so weak that the ;
least cold I contracted settled in them
making my condition worse. Doan's
Kidney Pills promptly disposed of the
pains in my back and regulated the
passages of the kidney seeretions. A
the present time there is not a symp
tom of my former trouble remaining.
I advise anyone afflicted with kidney
complaint to give Doan's Kidney Pills
a trial."

THE FIRST CLOCKS.
One at Padua That Was ? Wondor of
Mechanism.
It was, we nre told. In 1309 that the
first clock known to the world was
placed In the tower of San Eustorglo,
In Milan.
The greatest astonishment and ad
miration were manifested bj crowds
who flocked to see the timepiece. It
1344 a clock was Installed In the pal
ace of the nobles at Padua. This was
a wonder of uiechaulsm iudeed, for
besides Indicating the hours it showed
the course of the sun, the revolutions
of the planets, the various phases of
the moon, the months and the fetes
of the year.
The period of the evolution from the
clock to the watch was seventy-one
years? not so very long, all things con
sidered? aud the record of the first
watch Is 1380. A half century- later
an alarm clock made its appearance, j
This, we are told, was looked upon !
by the people of that age as "un in- ,
strument prodlgieux.''
The fortunate possessor of this clock
was Andrea Alclato, a councilor of
Milan. The chroniclers have placed
on record that this clock sounded a
bell at a stated hour, and at the same
time a little wax candle was lighted
automatically. How this was done we I
are not told, but it must not be over- !
looked that until about seventy years
ago we had no means of obtaining a
light other than the tinder box, so
that the Milanese must have been cen
turies ahead of us In this respect.
Not much progress was made with
the watch until 1740, when the sec
ond hand was added.? London Globe.
TEMPTED, HE ATE.
A Story of Heinrich Heine and a
Toothsome Lyons Sausage.
Returning from a journey to the
south of France, Ileinrieh Ileine met a
friend, a German violinist, in Lyons,
who pave him a large sausage that J
had been made In Lyons with the
request to deliver it to a mutual ac
quaintance, a homeopathic physician,
in Paris. Heine promised to attend
to the commission and intrusted the
delicacy to the care of his wife, who
was traveling with him. But as the
postchaise was very slow an>! he
soon became very hungry, ou the ad
vice of his wife both tasted of the 1
sausage, which dwindled with every
mile.
Arriving at Paris. Heine did not
dare to send the remainder to the
pliysi ian. and yet he wished to keep
1 nest possible slice with his razor,
wrapped It in n yhoet of vellum paper
mid luclosed it in an envelope, with
; the following note:
Dear Doctor? From your scientific inves
; ligations we loam that the millionth part
! of a certain substance brings about the
greatest results. 1 beg. therefore, your
kind acceptance of tho accompanying mil
lionth part of a Lyons sausage, which our
friend gave me to deliver to you. If
homeopathy Is a truth, then this little
piece will have the same effect on you as
the whole sausage. Vour

Old Time English Elections.
In old time England each constitu
ency gave Its representative in parlia
ment a horse to carry him to West
minister and also paid his expenses on
the road. These expenses, together
with au allowance for each day spent
on duty at the bouse of commons, gen
erally at the rate of 80 cents a day,
were refunded In one lump sum when
the member returned home at the end
of the pariamentary year. Sir F. De
laval totaled seven votes in au attempt
on Andover in the geueral election of
17CS. An item in ills election agent's
bill is typical of the reckoning he had
to pay: "To being thrown out of the
George lnu, Andover, to my legs being
thereby broken, to sugeon's bill and
loss of time and business, all in the
service of Sir F. Delaval, ?500." Lord
Llandaff won Duugurvan in 1868. The
Item "?547 whisky," caused him to
protest faintly. "Begorra," said his
election agent, "if ye want to squeeze
a pippin like that ye'll never do for
Duugarvan."

For The Benefit Of Those Who Want
To Know
HE TEMPERATURE of Southeastern Alaska in winter
seldom falls below zero, and the summer months are very
mild in all parts of Alaska.
Alaska was discovered in 1741 by Titus Behring, a
Danish navigator in the service of Peter the Great. It was purchased from
Russia by the United States on March 18th, 1867, for the sum of
$7,200,000.
The dimensions of Alasks are as follows: length 1 1 00 miles
breadth 800 miles; and it contains 600,000 square miles, or about ?one
fifth the entire area of the United States. The shore line of Alaska alone
amounts to more than 26,000 miles. Alaska contains 6000 miles of
navigable waters.
The meaning of the word "Alaska" is "Great countay" and was
derived from the Eskimo word "Al-i-ak-sa".
Alaska is the greatest gold producing country in North America, the
annual product amounting to about $20,000,000.00." The total product
to date amounts to more tham $1 70,000,000.00.
The most important fisheries in the world are in Alaskan waters. The
annual fish product alone amounts to over $ 1 0,000,000.00. One half the
salmon supplied the world is caught here. Other fish found in aboundance
are Cod, Herring, Grayling Trout, Halibut and White Fish. Besides
these, many other fish are found in smaller quantities.
The coal regions located to January I st, 1910, contain more coal
than the state of Pennsylvania; in fact, it is said that Alaska contains the
reserve supply of coal for the United States, amounting to more than
1 5,000 square miles, considerable which is anthracite.
Other minerals found are Silver, Tin, Marble, Gypsum and some
Tungston. As a Copper Region Alaska is said to be the greatest in the
world today.
The Fur Product of Alaska during Russian occupation is said to
have amounted to over $ 1 00,000,000, while that under American
occupation amounts to about $60,000,000.
As a game country Alaska is the finest in North America. The
following animals are found in abundance; Bear, Moose, Caribou, Mountain
To be continued tomorrow.
