CONGRATULATIONS, CHARLEY '
HOl'I*
With this issue the Mows starts* I
out ou the eighteeath year of its !
existence as a purveyor of common j
sense and morality among the pea-1
pie. During this time Douglas has,
grown trorn a little village to a!
city of considerable importance, and j
in many respects a model one. Lit- i
tie tots have gTov.-u up to be strong
manly men and lovely women. Ev-1
en the dreaded Taku winds have,
been toned down to a respectful at- j
titude and lack the peaetratnig
power of years ago. The population
has increased and instead of great
droves of long-legged, ugly looking
men, there is now a good per cent
of women aud happy, laughing chil
dren. Only tho^e whose memories
gj back to the nineties can appre
ciate the great change. As the
News .Man thinks of the years
that have gone by, years filled
with trouble aud sorrow and joy, a
feeling of thanksgiving comes to
him for the many blessings that
we now enjoy. — Douglas Island

AtiAlXST WHOLESALERS
The Seward Gateway states that
it is believed there that a number
of secret indictments returned by
the Valaez grand jury were against
outside wholesale liquor houses,
which have beea iu the habit of
shipping liquor into the territory u:
der false labels.
It is reported that a shipment of
soft dr.'jks to C-iitina when seized
by the deputy marshal was found to
have case goods concealed in the
barrels iu such manner that tap
ping :hg barrels would not reveal
anything wrong. The goods were
shipped by one of the big wholesale
houses 'n Seattle.

PATENT MEDICINES AND DRUGS
Iu 1906 the United States, passec
tte "Pure Food and Drug Act."
This act was to compel manufac
turers—under the penalty of tin
law, to place nothing oa the mar
tart but pure food and drugs; bu
in one way or auother unscrupu
lous persons have managed to evad<
this law and deceive the public
even soing so far as to put absoluti
falsehoods on the la.bels of ther
tvares.
Mpn and women have become rich
ness blocks all through, peddlinj
fake remedies.
Such is the case of the Law Broe
the manufacturers of "Viavi," wh<
own 'he Fairmont and Palace ho
tels of San Francisco. They wer<
penniless when ihe first put "Viavi'
on the market.
In the majority of families a
the first suspicion of an. ailment
the sufferer is given a dos« of an:
patent medicine which is advertisec
to do tne work. Regardless o:
whether the patient baa slow 01
fast heart action, backache caus«
from a strain or disarrangement o:
nerves, it can all be cured froir
the same bottle.
The patent medicines found or
moot shelves arc such as cold
cures, headache remedies, laxative*
face creams and lotions, baby reme^
diis, etc, etc.
Taking the different brands on(
by one and learning the content* 1<

loud warning to women, eepeciallj
mothers.
In *he line of frauds, "Viavi"
holds it3 own,—it is one of the
of the most stupendous, carefullj
elaborated and widely successful ol
