ALASKA RATKS
An important effect of the opera
tion ~f the new seamen's law, apart
from the feature that requires the
employment of high-priced labor, is
the added expense of maintenance
iu other departments th?t it places
on American carriers. The steam
shio Unas iu the Saattla-Alaski
trad a have recently given notice of
a raise In rats on account of the
expeftse of complying with the law
in reference to Ufa boa tag© and
<-xtra watches, as well as on ac
count of tha special conditions
brough* on by the war. Seattle
lines, it is announced, will be
• obliged to rXi>eud approximately
j $500,000 to comply with the re
pqurrrpaents.
j Alaska freigh' rates have there
fore t^u advanced from $1 to $3
per ton, and passenger rates have
also been • lised slightly. The
j statement is made by shipping in
. terests that, cren with the ad
' vanced rates, shiDs will be operat
ed at a less net profit than under
j tha old conditions.
Alaska lines Lave been hard hit
by tfie La FolleHa law, and they
have met theas losses In the face of
tempting offers from Atlantic in
t *ests to Durchase the larger ships
; t »w- or three times the values pf
the vessels two years ago.
In »he pres-mt condition of Al
aska, Cevelopmen* the loss of these
carrii rs woui j have been a great

I 83 survived many hazards in its
years of upbuilding, but none more
Beware of Ointments for

as mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the
whole system when entering It through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles should
never be used except on prescriptions

they will do Is ten fold to the good you

mercury, and Is taken Internally, acting
