NEED OF PUBLICITY
Skagway is the gateway into Al-1
aska. Nature has gathered here
her choicest treasures, to draw her
lovers into close aud confiding com
munion with her. Every mountain
seems to glow with life. Some lean
back in majestic repose; others, ad
vance beyond their companions. in
thoughtful attitude3, giving welcome
to storms and calm alike, seem
ingly aware, yet heedless of.eVery
thiug going on about them. They
are fitting emblems of creative J
majesty.
"The dusk drops down the misty
mountain way.
Par out, there sinks the saffron
disk of day,
Leaving me alone amid the wilder
uess
Of life, - athrob with infiuite si- j
letvces.
Publicity's theme is human wants
and where, when and how they I
may be gratified. In order to in
duce the tourist and his stream of J
-old to visit Skagway it is abso
lutely necessary to show .the peoplel
who are looking for recreation that
you have in this part ofAlaska the |
ideal place for them to enjoy their
outing. ;
It is an easy matter for the
outsider to reach this part of Al
aska. Xo rough voyages and the
few davs they spend on the boat
l>rej>:rres them for the wonders this
region has to offer them.
it Is not an expensive matter to
"••nd broadcast the advantages of I
Skagway. The first esential
that even" mart, woman and child j
stall have the spirit of eternal
bo'^st for Skagway. Pay no atten
tion to "he "knockers." "It can't I
be done," k, being done every day.
Li.'e is ;» struggle. And a struggle
in well doing is a rleasure. Peo- I
l>:e by continually proclaiming the
advantages of their city; can raise i
a town from the dead. When mon
ey is left in this pluce by the trail-,
siont it increases the wealth of |
every person in the community. No j
out person or persons can get all
the benefit. Each letter that is '
mailed out of Skagway by its citi
zens should have at least a line j
a brut one of your many attractions, j
Articles appearing in .your local pa- j
p(.r pertaining to the attractions of,
an*,- wirt of Southeastern Alaska
should be marked and mailed to an
acquaintance. You will.be surprised
how rapidly the good points of
okagwav will travel.. You will not
only get an immediate response in
people speaking well of your city,
but the cumulative benefits from
ytrar to year will bring your dreams
true.
Fiank G. Carpenter, the. most
widcljr read traveler in the world
will te in Skagway in the near fu
ture as he proposes to spend the
summer in Alaska. When he
comes. to your city give him a
cordial greeting as his articles on
the various cities and countries of
the world are read by hundreds of
thousands of people each Sunday.
Make the tourist who visits your
°'t.v feel that Introductions are
needless. You have interesting
people here, and your visitors will
have the kind of a vacation they
always wanted, but which the."
iievtr quite had—until now.

When California Was Unknown.
In an old geography printed in 181B
appears the following: "California la
a wild anil almo3t unknown land.
Throughout the year It Is covered with
dense fogs, ns dnmp as unhealthfuL
In the Interior are volcanoes and vast
plains of shifting snows, which some
times shoot columns to great heights.
This would seem nearly incredible
were It not for the well authenticated
accounts of travelers."
Two Viewpoints.

IMPATIENCE.
Impalicnf people cheat themselves
out of the best of things. We can
almost have our choice between
something good today and some
thing better tomorrow. But the
highest good never will be ours un
til we have learned to wait for it
SKIN TROUBLE ">
All OVER BODY
Itched Terribly. Could Not Sleep
at Night. Clothing Aggravated
Trouble. Cuticura Soap and Cuti
cura Ointment Healed.
1363 Fulton St: Chicago; HI.—"I
noticed peculiar spots breaking out all over
my body which Itched terribly. They were
red and later white and scaly.
The eruption burned and ltchod
so that I could not sleep at all
at night. My clothing aggra
vated the trouble and made mo
Itch mare.
"I took a treatment but goC
no relief. I read the Cuticura
advertisement in the paper and
wrote for a free sample of Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment. I used them as
per directions and had my first night's rest
In two months. Then I bought one box of
Cuticura Ointment and had only used half
of It with the Cuticura Soap when I was
healed. I have no disfiguring scars left!!.

Merchants Should Seek
Trade In the Markets
of South America ::
By EDWARD EL. PRATT, Bureau Chief of the Department of Commerce
THE economic condition of the countries to the south of us is not
nearly as important as the amount of common sense which <>ur
manufacturers mav or may not have. IS TIIE PRESENT TIME
AN* OPPORTUNE ONE FOR OPENING UP NEW MARKETS IN
StUTir AMERICA? EMPHATICALLY, YES!
Is the present time an opportune one for scll'ng goods? Probably
not so emphaticafWTno! And here is the difference. This is the time
to send a salesman, or, better, a business diplomat, into South America
to study the markets, to learn the country, to meet the people, to be
come acquainted with the trade and to lay the foundations for future
business.
To expect, however, to obtain largo financial returns from this new
and difficult field is only the folly of the uninformed. You would
scarcely expect a salesman in a new domestic territory to show a profit
on his initial trip. Then why expect it in a foreign territory?
What I hare said with reference to South America applies to a large
part of the world. In the first place conditions are readjusting. They
are fast becoming normal.

IN THE SECOND PLACE, NOW 13 THF TIME FOR THE MANUFAC
TURERS OF THIS COUNTRY TO WAKE UP AND BUILD UP THEIR
TRADE IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. v. r—
