10 TAKE ORE
Valdez, Jan. 19—Thousands of
tons of copper ore is being held
in the bunkers of the mining com
panies operating In Prince William
sound because of the lack of ships
with which to take the ore from the
mines *o the Bmelter at Tacoma.
Thq Latouche bunkers are filled, as
fare the big bunkers at Ellamar, the
Dickey property an<l the Fidalgo
Copper Company, operating in the
Filadgo bay section. Early in the
season, the companies rushed work
on the mines in order to take ad
vantage of the high price of cop
per, but the transportation, com
panies .have been, unable to handle
the ore, and aa a result most of
the properties have beeu forced to
reduce their working forces for the j
winter. J
PERFECT
CONFIDENCE
You Have Good Reason for Com
plete Reliance
Do you know how—
To find relief from backache;
To correct distressing urinary
ills;
To assist weak kidneys?
Many people know the way.
Have used Doan'a Kidney Pills;
Hare proved their worth in many
teats.
Here's convincing testimony. •"
Mrs. C. E. Spink, 6624 Carlton
Ave. , Seattle, Wash., says; "My
back ached day and night and I
couldn't rest. My back was lame
and weak, and when I tried to
straighten after stooping, sharp
pains often darted through me. 1
was nervous and had headaches and
terrible dizzy spells. My kld
neyB acted too freely, and gave me
no end of annoyance. The first
box of Doan's Kidney Pills great
ly relieved me and the trouble soon
left."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same
tha» Mrs. Spink had. Fosten^Mil
