CAM SHIP II
Timber May be Exported
From Uuiteil States
A law has been discovered which
permits timber to be shipped from
AlasKa to the British Yukon or other
foreign countries, provided it shall
have been cut on the Alexander Arch
ipelago forest reserve. Heretofore
Alaska lumbermen have been com
pelled to contine their search for a
market to Alaska on account of a law
of congress forb dding its exportation. I
Writing from Ketchikan, Alaska, to
the Daily Alaskan, under date of June,
1, W. A. Langille, forest inspector in
the United States forest service, says:
"A letter from the forester dated
Mav 18, announces the fact that in an
Act of March l!H>.">. congress provides,
that 'the secretary of agriculture mav,
in his discretion, permit timber and
other forest pri ducts cut or removed
from the forest reserves in the United
States, except the Black Bills reserve
in South Dakota and the forest reserves
in Idaho, to be exported from the state
territory or the district of Alaska, in
which said reserves are respectively
situated.'
"Hereafter timber and other forest
products, purchased and cut from the
ia&?"t of the Alexander Archipelago
Forest reserve, may be exported to
British Yukon and other points, when
a satisfactory showing has been made
that the provisions of this Act have |
been complied with."

ANOTHER WONDER OF SCIENCE.
Biology ha? Proved that Dandruff la
Caused by a Germ.
Science is donig wonders these days In
medicine as well as in mechanics. Sines
Adam lived, the human race has been
troubled wUh dandruff, for which no hair
preparation has heretofore proved a suc
iesstul cure until Xewbro's Herpiclde was
l>ut on the market. It is a scientific prep
aration that kills the germ that makes
dandruff or scurf by digging Into the
Scalp to get at the root of the hair, where
It saps the vitality: causing Itching scalp,
falling hair, and finally baldness. With
out dandruff hair must grow luxuriantly.
It Is the only destroyer of dandruff.

I ran down physically, felt tired all the
