FUTURE OF THE NORTH
Now that the United States govern
ment has become apprise of the fact
that the greatest part of the unappro
priated lands of the republic ha* been
taken up by selers, they will perhaps
exercise a little greater care in open
ing up land to entry. At the rate
which has prevailed in the past, all
of the fertile land would be appropri
ated within twenty-five years. Even
of the acreage still remaining, a large
proportion of it is situated on moun
tain tops and other inaccessable plac
??a.
It is rathttr gratifying to Alaskans
to know that one-half of the available
land left in the United States is sit
uated in the terriory where they
iav?. made their homes, aud a l&'g-i
amount of it is covered with timber
and if carefully lumbered, it will fa
converted into good agricultural land.
The statement was made in the hous
of congress that the valleys of the
big riv?t>> in Alaska are capable of
supporting a population of three hund
led thousand people engaged in agri
cultural pursuits. This may have been
an exaggeration, but those who have
penetrated the wilderness know that
in some places wild hay and native
fruits and berries grow in wild profu
sion. It is natural to suppose that
where wild plants will thrive, the cul
tivated varieties will do as well, if 110
better. Just at the present time al
most everybody in Alaska is engaged
in searching for mineral, but perhaps
the day will come when they will
turn their attention from mining to
farming. ? Kxohang.e
If you most tell your tale of grief,
to mortal .sirs, oh, friend, be brief!
We all have cares and woes to burn,
and find some more where'er we turn
and as we paddled down the years,
we bad our share of scalding tears.
This we discovered long ago: The
more we talked about our woe, the
i?w we knew of joy and peace; and
tolks would call for the police when
they beheld us on their trail, or heard
u? lettlug out a wail. And so at last
with queenly grace, we ceased to
hauQt the wailing place; we dried
our tears and wore a grin that reach
ed from either ear to chin, and when
we had a grief or care, we smashed
the blamed thing with a chair, and
went around and told the boys long,
stories of our humble Joys, and chort
led all the day of bliss ? and pretty |
toon we noticed; Folks greeted us
with faces gay. and threw no cabbag
es our way. Don't bind your sorrows
in a sheaf, and pack around a lead
of grief; the wise man tells how good
he feels, throws up his hat, kicks up|
his he**ls! ? Walt Mason.
If men who meet would converse
about hopeful signs, good times,
>rglht prospects, there would be no
time to tell of sleepless nights, bad
livers, dyspeptic pains and hard times
? there would be none. It is the
gloomy thought, the prophecy of 111.
that brings the pain to them. ? Ex.
There is a great time lock upon
the heart of each man and the door
opens Into the richest treasures of
his nature. Let each man learn th?
proper time to approach another, and
be will always find access to his trea
sure vault. ? Dental Summary.
The Skagway business men should
take up the question of advertising
Skagway to the people of the United
States as the ideal summer resort.

For a Bad Case of Eczema on Child
?Suffered for Three Months
Disease Reached a Fearful State
? Pain and Itching were Terrible.
CURED AFTER OTHER
PRESCRIPTIONS FAILED
"When I was small I was troubled
with ecxema for about three months. It
was all over my face and covered nearly
all of my head. It reached such a state
that it was just a larjte scab all over,
and the pain and itching were terrible.
I doctored with an able physician for
Bome time and was then advised by him
to use the Cuticura Remedies which I
did and I was entirely cured. I have
not been bothered with it since. I used
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
but do not know exactly how much was
used to complete the cure. I can safely
say that t'uticura did a lot for me. Miss
Anabel Wilson. North Branch, Mich.,

ITCHINGCURED
With Cuticura Remedies in
Three Days After Six
Months of Suffering.
"I suffered fully six months. The
trouble began ,>n my arms in little
red pimples and it was not long before
it was all over my body, limbs, face,
and hands. It was so bad that I could
not rest night or day and during the
six months. 1 did not g>-t a good night's
sleep. I doctored for three or four
months and spent at least twenty dol
lars trying to find a curt' but none could
be found. Then 1 saw the t'uticura
Remedies advertised, and the next day
I purchased some for seventy-five cents
at the druggist's. I used them and I
was relieved of the itching in three days,
and I have never had a sign of any skin
disease since. The Cuticura Remedies
an> the only remedies to use for skin
diseases, they have cured me und they
will cure others in the same way. J. \V .
