T^ROM the parlor to the kitchen.

There Is nothing but confi^ion
And the picture of despa*.
Such a riot of disorder.
In an Instant you woukl say
If you had a guessing contest.
That the missus was away.
There are boxes on the tables.
There are bundles on the chairs.
And the rug is growing curly
And a roguish aspect wears.
And the ice plant only wishes
It might journey to the sink.
For It doesn't quite remember
When It was it had a drink.
There are dishes on tho bookcase.
There are dishes on tho range,
Ar.d the tablecloth would hardly
Crumble if it had a change.
And the curtains that are hanging
With a fieshness that they sham
Give a splendid imitation
Of a smoked and seasoned ham.
Just a week a?f? she left us.
You wouM think It was a year
Si:ne straightened up the quarters
From the way that things appear.

UN i II as
A Woman Finds All Her Energy And
Ambition Slipping Away.
Alaskan women know how the
aches and pains that come when the
kidneys fail make life a burden. Back
ache, hip pains, headaches, dizzy
spells, distressing urinary troubles, al
tell of sick kidneys and warn you of
the stealthy approach of dropsy or
Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney Pills
are for the kidneys only. They at
tack kidney diseases by striking at
the cause.
Can Alaskan sufferers desire stron
er proof than this woman's word?
Mrs. Henry Rankos, 502 Vancouver
Ave., Portland, Ore., says: "It gives
me pleasure to confirm my former
public endorsement of Doan's Kidney
Pills given in October, 1907. At that
time I said that a member of my fam
ily was troubled by attacks of back
ache which prevented stooping or
lifting. Doan's Kidney Pills disposed
of the trouble in a short time. Since
then I have taken this remedy for
weakness and pain across my kidneys
and it has greatly benefitted me."
For sale by all* dealers. Price 50
cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo,

Remember the name? Doan's ? and
take no other.

The Mascot.
"What are you working at?'
"Working?"
"That's what I said."
"I don't work."
"Why?'
"Because my schemes do."
Generous Partner.
"Dissolved your partnership?'
"Yes."
"Why, 1 heard your partner gave
you the biggest share."
"He did. He gave me all the losses
which were large, and he kept all the
profits which were small."
Some Power.
Tou may not bo a monarch
But It Is going some
When you can touch a button
And make the waiter come
Makes Him Sober.
| "I Uke fun."
i "So I see."
"Don't you?"
"Yes."
"You don't show it."
"I have the bill to pay."
Lived It Down.
"I used to know him when he was a
poor boy."
"And is he wealthy now?"
"Oh. very."
"Evidently your knowing him didn't
blight his career."
Power of Habit.
"I hear he Is something of a lodge
joiner."
"He Is. Whenever he sees a goat
passing it takes four policeman to
hold him. He thinks he ought to ride
it."
PERT PARAGRAPHS.
Some otherwise brave men are al
ways badly frightened when they
hear anything that makes a uoise like
work.
Being polite to the people we don't |
like is a dreadful strain on the nerves.
Some people become athletic by the
simple expedient of dodging their j
taxes.
It is easy enough to be pleasant if |
it is you who are being pleased.
A fool and his honey are a sticky |
combination.
If you have any trouble to loan loan |
It to your enemies.
The devil Is always In on the secret |
when we deceive ourselves.
The reason why we can't put our
selves in the other fellow's place is
because he has such an expensive
place.
Lay in c down a law Is a lot easier
than following it up.

Skagway, Aug. 3, 1911.
Editor Chronicle: ? We of the east
fave a curious misconception of this
land I had shiveringly imagined it as
a region of cold, snow and ice and ttwj'
Polar bear; but most happily was my|
mind disabueed of this error. I found
here, lying 0n a plateau which nature
seems to have designed for it, the
little city of Skagway, surrounded
y giant snow-capped mountains filled
with golden nuggets of wealth, need- 1
ing only man's ingenuity to dig from ?
its slumbering recesses. Tickle these '
mountains with a pick and they laugh I
with a shower of gold. |
This is Alaska's summer, flowers
j blooming, birds singing, and the earth
yielding of her bounty in fruits and
vegetables. I have sojourned here a
week. What appeals to me most is
the atmosphere; being out of exces
sive rain belt, it is very pure and
dry. and surcharged with curative
properties, makes this place a natural
sanitarium for poor tired nerves and
mental worry. Morpheus is here at
his best, and sweet refreshing slum
ber enables- you to better battle with
the world.
I am fortunate in having been en
sconced in a fine hotel, the Pullen
house, admirably conducted, and with
table loaded down with toothsome
edibles of "the kind which mother
used to make." The glaciers, plainly
in sight from the hotel veranda,
Present an enchanting spectacle, as!
under the rays of the sun, they melt
and drop their watery deposits from
dizzy heights, in the form of rivulets,
cascades and falls. The rising and
setting sun illumines the white peaks,
making them to shine as of burnished
silver. The White Pass and Yukon
railroad starts from here and winds
up through the White Pass to the
summit, the boundary line between
1 ncle Sam's and the king's domains,
where you can stand in both coun
tries at the same time, "God Save
the King." "Hurrah for President
Taft." This railroad is a most von
derful and daring piece of engineering
as it literally hangs on the mountain
side cut through solid rock at an el
evation of two thousand eight hun
dred feet; deep gorges are spanned
with bridges that look like a spider's
web.
Here is seen the Klondike trail,
where man and beast suffered the
penalty during the rush for gold in
1S9S. Harrowing tales of these dis
astrous scenes were recounted to me
by many who participated in that
crazy pilgrimage to the golden shrine
Here, the moon, the full moon, not
like, it is with us, of silvery hue, but
hanging in the heavens as a ball of
Sold, and more at an angle, as though
the old man was reclining. Its yel
low light shimmering upon the rest
less sea and tinting the soft, fleecv
clouds in its path, and lighting up
the mountains, the glaciers and the
valleys, makes a scene of rare and
wonderful beauty, of which one never
tires.
Sitka is a very attractive city. Its
fin^ harbor is dotted with many tree
covered islands, and in the distance
is seen an extinct volcano and ranges
of lofty snow-covered mountains. Its
Indian River park known as the last
battleground between the Indiana and
Russians, is an area of woods, streani
winding paths and totem poles, left in
its natural wild state. The climate
here is very damp, the rainfall said
to be one hundred twenty-two inches
per annum. It has a museum of a
very valuable collection of Indian cur
iosities.
One of the great and profitable
industries of Alaska is the canning
of salmon, the operation of which is
absorbingly interesting. At Ketchi
kan I saw the salmon shooting up
the falls. At Prince Rupert, the
building of a city, which is to be the
terminal of the Grand Trunk Pacific
railway, now in process of construc
tion, and will bring Japan two days
nearer.
I visited the renowned Treadwell
gold mines at Douglas. Our ship
brought from there $180,000 of gold
bullion. Our steamer passed through
fields of icebergs, floating fleets
from fairyland. Spouting whales,
playful porpoises, and salmon Jumping
two and three feet from the water
in evidence all along the route.
This wonderful fascinating, enchanf
ing Alaskan one thousand miles of
inland waterway, cannot be duplicated
in any other part of the world, and I
wish every citizen of Cambridge could
see and enjoy it. No artist can paint
this picture into canvas, but I will
carry it home and hang it upon imy
wall in the golden frame of memory.
