HELP PUT SKAGWAY ON THE
MAP
A mating for the purpose of or
ganizing a Commercial Club will be
held Tuesday evening at the town
tall and it behooves every citizen of
Skagway who has the interests of the
town at heart to be prsent at that
meeting and help make ih.> Commer
cial Club a live influence in the
town's affairs.
It U understood Uiat the Commer
cial Club will starr a campaign of
publicity la a small way, seeking in
the main to advertise Skas way's nat
ural scenic beauties as an Ideal place
for a summer resort and tourist town.
Few places in the ''nited States pos
sess the natural advantage that Ska
way can offer to the tourists who
seek a "return to nature' after the
Jading pursuits of the "strenuous
life." These people have money and
leisure and the Inclination to travel
to new and novel scenes.
By judicious advertising and at a
blight cost the bnaut'es of Skagway
can be heralded abroad and tourists
in large numbers can be attracted
here to spend days and oven weeks
in our town. Oth^r towns have
placed themselves on the map by the
same means ? why not Ska^wav?
Be on hand Tues '.ay night ami
help make the movement a success.
It will help your business in the
long run.
The non-advertising merchants of
this city do not keek your patronage,
your attention or favor ? so why
should you confer them? The pro
gressive merchants pay attention to
you, thus deserving to have youi at
tention In return. They are "on
their metal" all the time to secure
values for you that will stand inspec
tion ? that will stand advertising.
for the fact that he advertises
places upon the merchant the neces
sity to "make good" ? to meet live
competition ? to so wisely buy as to
be able to sell at your profit as well
as his own. He is placed under a
perpetual test ? and he must emerge
always with your Increasing friend
ship. He must work for you ? with
your approval ever In mind. He must
find bargains for you ? extra value
things for you; he must protect you
on styles, on qualities, on prices.
He Is enlisted in your service. And
the non-advertising merchant is not.

PLUTOCRAT AND POET.
Good old opulent John D.! lie
would look with scorn on me; I con
sider I'm in luck, when I have an ex
tra buck; buying ice or buying coal
always keeps me in the hole, and
when I've paid the rent I am left
without a cent. Yet I'm always gay
and snug, happy as a tumblebug, hav
ing still the best of times, grinding
out my blame fool rhymes! Old John
U. on t'other hand, frets away to beat
the band; he is burdened with his
care ? though he isn't with his hair ?
and his health U going back, and his
liver's out of whack, and his con
science ha* grown numb, and his
wishbone's out of plumb, and he's
trembling all the day "es. a plunk
may get away. Better be a cornfed
bard, writing lyrics by the yard, with;
an appetite so gay it won't balk at
prairie hay, than to have a mighty
pile, and forget the way to smile ?
Walt Mason.
The newspapers of Alaska are try
log to form an association for the
purpose of combining their influence
towards securing a decent cable rate
for their news service. It is utterly
Impossible to products a first class
newspaper under the present system
of overcharge. Only the merest sha
dow of a news Item Is sent and the
editor has to pad it out into readable
form. The government is making
money out of its Alaska cables. It
is making too much off the newspa
pers, and by doing so robs the pub
lic of its legitimate news. This is
rot wholly a newspaper protest. Kv
try person who wants the latest and
best news of the world is interested
in getting the rate reduced. When
the public demand is strong enough
tho results will be forthcoming. ?

THE DREAM GOD'S GIFT.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Tholr Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.
All the blood iu tho body pusses
through tho kidneys once every thre
minutes. The killueys filter the blood
They work nigt and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of Impure matter daily, when un
healthy some part of this impure mat
U r is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms ?
pain lu the back, headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight and
bearing, dizziness irregular heart,
debility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
in tho urine, etc. But if you keep the
filters right you will have no trouble
*ith your kidneys.
W. A. Hawkins, 609 Yes lor Way,
Seattle, Wash., says: "It gives me
pleasure to confirm the statement I
gave for publication some years ago
in favor of Doan's Kidney Pills as
tho relief I obtained from their use
has proven permanent. I suffered
from an acute attack of kidney trou
tle and though I used remedy after
remedy, I was unable to find relief.
1 had tho most severe pains across
the small of my back and was also
annoyed by irregular passages of the
kidney secretions. Doan's Kidney
Fills helped me at once and continue
use entirely relieved me. I am a'
great advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills
and have recommended them on
many occasions."
