Dawson and Klondike Pros
pects Never so Bright
"Dawson and the Klondike are in
better shape now than they have been
at any time in their history." Those
are the words used by Got. Mclnnes in
referring to the conditions in his ter
ritory. '"The real development of the
country is just beginning." he contin
ued "The rush of capital to that
country to be used in development of
its lower grade grounds is something
immense."
"People on the outside do not really
comprehend the extent of the revival
that ia taking place in the Klondike.
The conntry is actually booming.
Nearly three times as many locations
of mining properties were made in the
four months of open season this year ?
June, July. August
and September? as ever were
made in any similar length of time in
the history of the country.
Gov. Mtlnnis says the Guggenheims
are the iarges, bat no means the only
investors in the Klondike. There will I
be a great numoer of large companies
operating dredgers and hydraulic plants
of great dimensions as soon as they can
get the machinery they have ordered.
Gov. -Mclnnis ?ays the number of,
dredgers that will be shipped into Daw- !
son next year will be limited by the
capacity of the manufacturers to till
orders. So many large plants have
been ordered by capitalists for use in
the Klondike that it will be impossible
for them all to be turned out in time
for shipment to Dawson during the
next open season.

Auglo-Ainericai) Company
Doing Good Work
T. M. Dauiton. manager of the
Anglo-American Mining Company
which is developing- a mine on Windy
Arm, says the more they work the
better is the outlook. Mr. Dauiton
has been working a force of men all
summer anil has made several test
shipments of ore to the states. He is
more than satisfied that he has a great
mine.
Mr' Dauiton arrived last night ana
will leave for the south on fhe Princess
Beatrice this evening. He will spend
the holidays at his home in Seattle and
then return to his mining property.
Work will be continued during the
winter on Mr. Daul toe's properly.

The Children Enjoy
Life out of doors and out of the games which they play and the enjoyment
which they receive and the efforts which they make, comes the greater part of that
healthful development which is so essential to their happiness when grown. When
a laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and
strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians would
sanction, because its component parts are known to be wholesome and the remedy
itself free from every objectionable quality. The one rea?edy which physicians and
parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy,
because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is? Syrup
of Figs? and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by
fathers and mothers. ~
Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally
without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually,
without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old
time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so
carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood,
strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not
needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only
the simple, pleasant and gentle- Syrup of Figs.
Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative
principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juic#s, but also to our
original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do
not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to
increase their profits. Please to remember, the full name of the Company?
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. - is printed on the front of every package. In

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their UnoeaiinR Work Keeps U
Strong and Healthy
All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
ra nutes. The kidneys filter the blood
They work right and day. When heal
thy they remove about 5OO grains of im
pure matter daily, when unhealthy
some parts of this impure matter is left
in ihe blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms ? pain in the back,
headache, nervousness, hot, dry skin,
iheuuiatism, gout, gravel, disorders of
the eyesight and hearing, dizziness, ir
regular heart, debility, drowsiness,
dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But
if you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your kidneys.
John Marshall, employed on the
Northern Pacific R. R. who lives at 930
South D Street, Tacoma, Wash., says;
"A fall which strained mv back must
have injured my kidney:-, for I suffer d
for more thin seven years with kidney
trouble. The secretions were irregular
and contained a heavy brick dust sea i
meet after remaining over night. There"
was more or less pain across the smal'
of my back, which was very stvere
after working in a stooping position for
any length of time and I had to be care
fnl when straightening up or I suffered
severe twinges of pain. I also had
headaches and spells of dizziness. I treat
ed with a physician and used different
remedies but found no more than temp
orary relief. Ai length I noticed re
commendations of Doan's Kidney Pills
in the newspapers and I got a box.They
stopped the echiug in my back, correct
ed 1 he kidney difficulties and banished
the headaches and dizziness. Other
members of my family have since used
Doan's Kidney Pllla with the same good
results."
