ABB i'ot AILING?
THElf THY CORDOVA'S
MEDICINAL IVATfiRS
"Why eo to the hot springs in
southeastern Alaska or in the
states to b« cured of rheumatism
when near Cordora is medicinal wa?
er which is more efficacious, costs
nothing, and is of sufficient vol
ume to heal every ailing person in
Alaska," i$ the query of Jamea Hy
land, who until recently was a suf
ferer from rheumatism of such se
verity that the far famed Sitka hot
surings could* not relieve him.b ut
who is once mora hale and hearty
through an accidental discovery.
A lall into the waters of Prince
William sound did it, he says. When
ti* ailment began to cause him con
stant agony he left his home at
Chitina, where he owns the Copper
Block hotel, and went to the hot
springs at Sitka, where he took his
daily abolutions conscientiously and
followed carefuly e the doctor's in
structions. But he gained little re
l'ef and finally returned to Cordova.
He became interested in a galtery
st Landlock bay and on© evening
while at the saltery he accidtnly
fell into the bay. He says he de
cideo that as he had had1 almost
a swim he might as well make a
jfood job of it, so he took off his
clothes and went back for a few
minutes.
Next morning 'nstead of the ex
pected stiffness and pain, he found
he felt better than he had for years.
"o hi took another swim that morn
ing and still another in th^ even
ing, and has been contiuig them at
intervals ever since.
Never since that first accidental
ducking, he declares, has hg felt
even the slightest twinge of the
old* rheumatism.

GEUMVNV REPORTED BUILDING
VESSEL OP 56,000 TONS
Th* Shipping Board1 authorizes
the / Uowing:
The Nordisches Koloiiial Kentor
(Northern Colonial Bureau, Ltd.)
in Hamburg ha# issued a pamphlet
enut'eft "Germaa shipping before,
during aDd after the war,'' which
contain^ valuable statistics. The
German merchant marine amounted!
to 5 459,296 gross register tons
on Jan. 1, 1914. Shipowners have
thus far direct and indirect losses
of aOout 300 ships, with about 2,
900,000 gross register tons, or
more than 50 per cent.
I* the snips still lying in neu
tral harbors are counted aa lost
as a precautionary measure about
two-thirds of the entire Greman
merchant marine would be done
awav with. In comparison with
these losses the followng table of
new ships ordered by German
steamship companies during the
war is of interest:
Or the leading companies the
Hamburg-American Lin® is, building
the Bismarck, with 56,000 tons,
♦he turbine steamer TlrDitz, with
32,000 tons, and three other ships
of 32,000 tong each in Hamburg
yards. Near Bremen, nine steam
ers are oeiug built, of which four,
with a cargo capacity of 18,000
tons each, will be the largest
freighters in the world. The Flens
bur" vard is building three large
passenger and freight boats, while
two other steamers of 13,000 tons
each are iu order.
TecklenDerg, Goestemunae, is
buildiuv two cargo steamers of
17,000 tons tach fojr the Panama
Canal service. The Hamburg-South
American Co. has four cargo steam
ers being ouilt at various . yards
aside from the Cape Polonic, an
improved sister ship of the Cape
Traf<iicar (18,000 tons), now sunk.
The North German Lloyd is build
ing two large liners, Columbus and
Hiudenberg, of 35,000 tons each,
anr1 two more ships of 12,000
tons each. Th® African Line is
buildin/ six, the Hansa Line 12,
and u Kosmos Line 10 steamers,
ranging from 9,000 to 13,000 tons.
According to the above the lead
ing lines are building about 950,000
tons altogether, which is not near
ly enough to replace the losses of
the German merchant marine dur
ing *b'< war. It was therefore neces*
sary to encourage new construction
ov Governmental measures. This
purpose Is served by the law re*
garrt'n^ the reconstruction of the
merchant marine recently passed
by thp Reichstag.
