PEN PICTURE

Thomas Cale
The Post-Intelligeneer last week ;
gave this pen-picture of 'JThotuas Cale, j
which accompanied an interview with}
our delegate 10 congres;:
"Mr. Cale is a tall man, looking be
tween 50 and 60 years of age, grizzled,
spare and straight, every inch of his
six feet. His bet.ring is that of a force- '
ful man, one who does things, yet his I
modest manner is one ot the striking I
characteristics of the man. Instinctive- (
ly one feels, at first sight here is care I
fulness, conservatism, reliability. He j
is plan? plainly dressed, yet withj
nothing indicating carelessness of man- j
ner, and with a quiet dignity wbtch sits
well on sympathetic nature. During ;
the interview a man from one of the |
Coast districts came tn with a request j
for some aid in getting a postoltice e?.
tablished in his camp. The maanerof,
his reception was just what one would !
hope to receive from a man to whom j
one would go for assistance. 'I like to 1
have you come to me,' he said to the I
gentleman, 'let me know your wants, j
It is in that ?ay that I will get posnd .
on the needs of the different sectioi.s. ?
Yes, I will take that mattirupwith
Mr. Waskey.!
"Mr. Cale recogni/.es the greatner." j
and the future of Alaska, but is not ?
intolerant of those who may be iinfmu
lliar with conditions in the Xortb. He
is independent, conservative, modest." j

The Children Enjoy
Life out of doors and out of the games which they play and the enjoyment
which they receive and the efforts which they make, comes the greater part of that
healthful development which is so essential to their happiness when grown. When
a laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and
strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians would
sanction, because its component parts are known to be wholesome and the remedy
itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and
parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy,
because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is? Syrup
of Figs? and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by
fathers and mothers.
Symp of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally
withou'; griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually,
without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old
time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so
carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood,
strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not
needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only
the simple, pleasant and gentle? Syrup of Figs.
Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative
principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our
original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do
not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to
increase their profits. Please to remember, the full name of the Company ?
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO.? is printed on the front of every package. In
order to get its Denenciai
effects it is always neces
sary to buy the genuine
only. For sale by all re
liable druggists.

Black Splotches All Over Face ?
Produced Severe Itching? Year's
Treatment by Physicians Did No
Good and Became Despondent
Affected Parts Now Clear as Ever
? Alabama Lady's
CURE BY THE
CUTICURA REMEDIES
"About four years ago I was afflicted
with black splotches nil over my face
and a few covering my body, which
produced a severe itching irritation, and
which caused me a great deal of annoy
ance and suffering, to such an extent rtiat
I was forced to call in two of the leading
physicians of my town. After a thor
ough examination of the dreaded com
plaint they announced it to be skin
eczema in its worst form. They treated
me for the same for the lengtli of one
year, but the treatment did me no good.
"Finally I became despondent and
decided to discontinue their services.
Shortly afterwards, my husband in read
ing a copj' of a weekly New York
paper saw an advertisement of the Cuti
cura Remedies. He purchased the en
tire outfit, and after using the contents
of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent
in connection with the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. I continued the use of the
Cuticura Remedies for six months, and
after that even' splotch was entirely I
gone and the affected parts were left aa !
clear as ever. I have not felt a symp
tom of the eczema since, which was three
years ago.
"The Cuticura Remedies not only
cured me of that dreadful disease, j
eczema, but other complicated troubles j
as well; and I have been the means of j
others being cured of the same disease I
by the Cuticura Remedies, and I don't j
hesitate in saying that the Resolvent '
is the best blood medicine that the world j
has ever known." Lizzie E. Sledge, i
