YANKS LOSE
Canadians Gain Territory
on Unuk River
t (
It appears that in marking the Alas
kan boundary by the joint survey party
of the United States ana Canada, the
Canadians hoodwinked the American
party into agreeing upon the locat ion
of the monuments along the Unuk riv
er, 21 miles from tidewater, instead of
10 marine leagues, thereby giving to
Canada a strip of country 10 miles wide
and placing the property of the Unuk
River Mining Company on Canadian j
soil. Indeed, practically all the claims
whica have been recorded in that sec
tion ate, by the wr. ng location of these
monuments, taken off of American soil
and phced in the boundaries of Canad*.

CURED BY CUTICURA
IN TWO WEEKS
Mr9. George J. Steese, of 701 Coburn
St., Akron, Ohio, tells in the following
letter of another of those remarkable
cures of torturing, disfiguring skin
humors daily made by Cuticura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment,
after physicians, and all else had
failed: "I feel it my duty to parents
of other poor suffering babies to tell
you what Cuticura has done for my
little daughter. She broke out all
over her body with a humor, and we
used everything recommended, but
without results. I called in three doc
tors, they all claimed they could help
her, but she continued to grow worse.
Her body was a mass of sores, and her
little face was eaten away, her ears
looked as if they would drop off.
Neighbors advised me to get Cuticura
Soap and Ointment, and before I had
used half of the cake of soap and
box of ointment the sores had all
healed, and my little one's face and
body was as clear as a new-born babe's.
I would not be without it again if it
cost five dollars, instead of seventy-five
cents, which is all it cost us to cure
our baby, after spending many dollars
on doctors and medicines without any
benefit whatever."
SLEEP FOR BABIES
