There is more Catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years doc
tors pronounced it a local disease an
proscribed local remedies, and by con
stantlv failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Scienc
has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. It is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. it
acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials.

HIDDEN DANGERS.
Nature Gives Timely Warnings That
No Alaska Citizen Can Afford
to Ignore.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 1 comes
from the kidney secretions. They will
warn you when tho kidneys are sick.
Well kidneys excrete a clear, amber
fluid. Sick kidneys send out a thin,
pale and foamy, or a thick, red, ill
smelling urine, full of sediment and
irregular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Back pains, dull and
heavy, or sharp and acute, tell you of
sick kidneys and warn you of the ap
proach of dropsy, diabetes and
Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney Pills
cure sick kidneys and cure them per
manently.
Theodore Josephson, f>15 Seventh
St., Astoria, Oregon, says: "About
five years ago 1 used Doan's Kidney
Pills and derived great benefit. At
that time I was suffering from se
vere paius across my back and loins,
at times so severe that I was unable
to stoop or straighten. My kidneys
also bothered me a great deal, tho se
cretions generally being too frequent
in passage. At last Doan's Kidney
Pills were brought to my attention
and I procured a box. I used them
and as a result my health is now ex
cellent. I take a few doses of Doan's
Kidney Pills now and then, when
feeling any sign of backache and they
never fail to banish the trouble."

TOKYO, Japan. ? Discussing tlu> In
| ternational situation in the columns o?
the Yomiuri, Count Okunia points out
that there are two important things
l> bo noted by the Japanese people.
One is that the Western nations are
casting an envious eye upon the un
precedented ly rapid strides made by
Jtpan in arms and civilization. The
other is that Europeans are entertain
! ing fears that Japan may one day
join hands with China, and are there
fore doing their best to keep tin1 two
countries seperated.
"Another noteworthy feature is that
Kngluiid as Japan's ally, is now re
garded by tiie Western nations as a
traitor to the white race, in that she
assists Japan in every respect. Tha
an"-Japanese movement on the Pa
cific slope and the recent announce
; ment made by the Kaiser in regard to
German naval policy are all the out
come of antagonistic sentiments
against England and Japan.
"As to the anxiety in regard to a
future combination between China an I
Japan, signs are not wanting that
I some powers are even now using thel
I Influence in China to sever the reln
. t.ons between the two nations."

BABY TORTURED

By Terrible Itching Eczema? Face
and Head a Solid Sore? Spread
to His Hand and Legs? Would
Scratch Until He Bled? Tiny Suf
ferer Immediately Relieved and
ENTIRELY CURED IN 2
MONTHS BY CUTICURA
" Whon my son Walter was three weeks
old, eczema appeared on his face. \V<; did
it was so went ,
to a doctor who !
treated him for
throe months.
Then ho was so ;
bad that his faco
and head were i
nothing but one
6?re and his cars
looked as if they
were going to fall
olT, so wo tried
another doctor.
He said he could |
c ire him and wo
aoccorea mere rour mom us, ii? uuuy
hover getting any bettor. His hand
and legs then had hip sores on them
and as for his sleeping, we could not
think of it, the poor little fellow suf
fered so terribly. First I tied his hands
to the crib to keep him from scratching,
but when it got so bad I tied him in a
shawl or ho would scratch himself all
bloody. When ho was seven months old
we tried a set of the Cuticura Kcmedies.
The first application of Cuticura let
him sloop and rest well, in one week
tho sores wore gone but, it stayed red
and sometimes it would itch so wo
used Cuticura for two months, then ho
had a clear and white face. Now he is I
two years and seven months old and !
has never had eczema again. I liopo
this letter will help some who are suffer
ing from skin disease. Every mother
who has a baby suffering with skin
disease should just try Cuticura; tlicro
is nothing bettor. Mrs. Louis Beck, R.
F.D.3,San Antonio. Tex., Apr. 15, '07.
A single set of Cuticura Remedies is J
often sufficient to cure torturing, dis- !
figuring, itching, burning, and scaly
humors, eczemas, rashes, and irritations, j
from infancy to age, when all other
remedies fail.
