ia} MS RULE. AR ——s Part of Alaska is Under the U.S. Army Patrol.—A Speculation in Christmas Dinners. Washingtov, D. C., Oct. 21.--Sec- retary of War Alger issued an order © ereating 2 military reservation in that part of Alaska lying within a radius of 100 miles of St Michael's This land is set aside from the pub- Jie lands of the territory of Alaska, and declared a military reservation. The preeent laws of Alaska will enotinue to prevail over the lands within the reservation, but the mili tary officer in charge will have con- siderably enlarged powars in the matter ot ejecting obnoxious charac ters. Secretary Alger has authorized Lieut. Col. Randall, in command of the troops at St Michael's not only tofeed the miners who may be io actual need, but also to ship them out cf the country when they have not the means to pay their own way. Charles H Vest of Purtland, is en route to Alaska on a remarkable venture. Ho intends to furnish the people of Dawson with Christmas dinners and at the same time make his fortune. His merchan ise consists of 3,843 dozen eggs, one and one half tons of dressed poultry and $50 worth of oysters Tho eggs carefully broken and placed in cans, six to the can,and then frozen solid. The poultry aud oysters were likewise put through the freezing process. Mr. Vest on reaching Dawson ex- pects to sell the poultry for $5a pound and the oysters for 100 times what they cost him. He hopes to realizs $100,000 on the speculation. are A Gold Dollar. Has no greater purchasing power than a all- ver dollar when it is invested in Prickly Ash Bitters, the celebrated system tonic.

The fall was occasioned by an unknown pick pocket, who, in Denver, the other | day, relieved Mr Pinkerton’s inside coat pocket of $250 Mr. Pinkerton’s purpose in going to Denver was to advise the local police how to best protect people from pickpockets during a carnival that was in progress.

Washington, Oct 21.—Secretary Long bas just made the heaviest contract for projectiles ever signed for the navy. Byits terms the Car- penter Steel Company of Reading, Pa, will furnish 4,267 hardened steel, armor-piersing projectiles, with soft points, for $160,000, of which 200 weigh half a ton each, for use in the 13-inch guns of the bat- tleships, and the remainder are for 6-inch, 5-inch and 4-inch rapid-fire rifles, there baing 2,000 of the latter caliber. The contract contains a clause which provides that while the deliv- eries are to be completed in nine months, ia the case of a national emergency the secretary of the navy may reduce the limit to five mouths. It is the purpose of the department to store these projectiles at arsena's conveniently near the coast, where they may be readily delivered to the warships.

This is often very slight or remote, and sometimes may not develop at all in one generation, but breaks out in a serious disease later. Cancer, the most dreadful of all dis- eases, is often the result of some blood taint inherited from generations back. It often appears as a mere mole or in- significant pimple, which later develops into an alarming condition. No one knows but that he may be subject to an inherited impurity in the blood, nor can he tell Sree or not this may some day crop out in the form of destructive cancer. It is, therefore, important that any little sore or scratch, which does not readily heal, be given prompt atten- tion, or a serious condition may result. Mr. Robert Smedley, of Ocala, Fla., was the victim of a malignant cancer, which first appeared in the manner aboye described. He writes: “At first I paid no attention to the little blotches on my face, thinking they would soon pass away. Before long, however, they became sore, and soon began to enlarge. I applied ordinary local remedies, but they had no effect, and I then consulted a physician. When he told me I had cancer, I became alarmed and hastened to obtain treat- ment for I knew how dangerous cancer was. “I received the best medical atten- tion, but the cancer continued to grow worse until the physicians finally said that I would have to have an operation performed, as that was the only hope for me. This I re- fused to submit to, as I knew cancer was a blood disease, and my common sense told me that it was folly to expect an operation to cure a blood disease. “Knowing S. S. S. to be a good blood remedy I decided to try it, and the first bottie produced an improvement. I continved the medicine, and in four months the last scab dropped off. Ten years have elapsed, and not a sign of the disease has returned.” The alarming increase in the number of deaths which occur as the result of a surgical operation is attracting general attention, and astrong sentiment against such methods of treatment is fast de- veloping among the most intelligent classes. It seems that in almost every case where the doctors’ ‘reatment is unsuccessful, the learned physicians de- cide at once that an operation must be performed, and the keen blade of the surgeon is recklessly resorted to. The many caustic plasters which are applied to remove cancers are more pain- ful than death, and the danger of a sur- gical operation is as great as the disease itself. No plaster or surgical oper- ation can cure cancer, because it is a blood disease; the destructive cancer cells are in the blood, and cannot be cut out, or removed by local treatment. | As the disease must be forced from the blood, it is only reasonable to rely upon a real blood remedy for a cure, one which goes direct to the cause of the trouble and removes it. S. S. S. (Swift’s Specific) is the only known cure for cancer and cther obsti- nate and deep-seated blood diseasessuch as Scrofula, Eczema, Catarrh, Rheuma- tism and Contagious Blood Poison. Itis and is the only blood remedy gnaran- teed to contain not a particle of mercury, potash or other mineral, which means so much to all who know the disastrous effects of these drugs.
