You Don’t Want Drugs
| We realized a long time ago that the American people were I
learning to discriminate between drugs and medicines. We welcomed j
the change. It always went against the grain to sell patent cure- j
alls about which we knew nothing. But we had to do it because |
of public demand and until the public met us half way. Then we
secured the privilege of selling a line of real remedies, which cannot
be sold by any other druggist in this community. To get these rem
I edies we joined forces with more than 8,000 of the leading druggists

“With her enormous forests of rap
idly growing species suitable for pulp,
her water power and her tide water
shipment of manufactured products,
Alaska will undoubtedly become one
of the principal parper sources of the
United States,” says Secretaary of
Agriculture Meredith.
Aside from fuel, the more impor
tant operating supplies for pulp mills
in general are lime, or limestones,
sulphur, soda ash, salt cake, grind
stones, bleaching agents, and repair
materials. Alaska has numerous de
posits of lime rock that will furnish
very high grades of lime.

Instead of making preparations to
withdraw from the Alaskan transpor
attion field the Canadian Pacific rail

feet long with a speed of 17 knots.
It is now possible to travel from
Caribou Crossing to Valdez by wagon
road, with the exception of two gaps
which can be covered by boat. The
road runs to Whitehorse, and thence
along the Yukon river to Dawson. A
boat must be taken to Circle, from
which point a wagon can cover the
greater part of the distance to Fair
banks.

Robert Horn, a resident of Doug
las shot and killed a Mexican by the
name of W. Falvanta, last week.
Two loads of No. 6 shot fired at
close range, found their mark in the
body of Fulvanta, who ran a short dis
tance and died. Horn claims he shot
in self-defense, after he had been
threatened with an automatic revol
ver in the hands of the Mexican. Mrs.
Horn, a young native woman claimed I
that the dead man followed her and 1
forced his attention on her. She at- g
tempted to dissuade him from follow- 1
ing her, but he persisted, and when s
near her home was walking with j
her, Horn remonstrated with him and :
says Falvanta threatened him with
his gun. He ran home for his shot
gun and seeing the Mexican with his
gun in his hand fired three shots
scoring a bullseye with two of them.
Horn surrendered after the shooting
and will receive his preliminary ex
amination this week.
