IHE STORY OF
"LITTLE BILL"
Howard Hamilton Hart, California
millionaire, former Yukon sourdough!
has come into prominence in San
Francisco iu a new case. Last year
he was known to fame ever America
as the man who had a bothersome
automobile run off the ferry into
San Francisco bay just to get rid of
toe pesky lioodoo. While in the
North, Hart was one of the live
wires. He was at Fortymile in the
days when Tom O'Brien aud other
present day Klondikers were mak
ing the early history of the em
pire of gold. Later part went to
Dawson, and soon afterward was
engaged in mining near thc.e. Ho
worked some of the famous ground
staked by the George Carmack
Skoo.cuui Jim discovery party. Go
ing outside with a moderate stake,
he was married, and later got into
the oil business in California, where
by he rose to woalth. liis latest ex
ploit is told iu the San Francisco
Examiner of December 10, as fol
lows:
"This is the story of "Little Bill"
and the practical philanthropy of a
millionaire.
"Some day we may refer to "Lit
tle Bill" as the "poor little rich boy
but today he is just Little Bill.
"The philanthropic millionaire is
Howard Hamilton Hart, who struck
it rich in the Klondike, during the
early days of the Alaskan rush, aud
now owns a magnificent villa ju the
heights of Claremont, in Oakland.
Hart is a direct actionist in phil
anthropy. He gives money to the
needy, but he has found a way of
making his dollars go further and
ido more close at home. Therefore,
Little Bill, and Howard and Orth:i,
three orphans, have been adopted,
members • the Hart, household.
Howard and Ortha are eight and
seven years old respectively.
"Little Bili is the third charity
baby. Now a little more than a yea
old, he was abandoned on the Hart
doorstep. A note was l-inned to his
whito woolen dress. It read: "My
name is Bill."
Little Bill arrived just af'er .Mrs.
Hart had died. She had been her
husband's companion for 20 years.
She had "mushed" it across the
frozen tundra of the North and had
dr'ven the shaggy malamutes and
undergone the hardships of trail and
mountain. And she wr.3 the inspir

"Poor little fellow, we will call
him Little Bill," said Hart when
the butler placed the child before
him. "Little Bill had found a homo
There is a wonderfully equipped
ihildren's playroom. There are all
kinds of fascinating toys—rocking
hordes, building blocks, picture
books, a hand box and a swing, and
cleverly constructed c.;ts and dogs
and ponies. Everything that a baby
heart desires.
"Meanwhile the mother of Little
Bill has not forgotten him :icr the
kindness of the great-hearted miner.
An anonymous letter came to Hart
from the unknown mother.
"Thank you and God bless you for
caring for Little Bill," ii read.
To help direct the a.:';iirs of the
children Hart has placed Mrs. Louis
Scholler in charge as hou- eliceper."

This is the Case With Many Alas
kan People.
Too many Alaskan citizens arc
handicapped with bad b.icks. The
unceasing pain causes constant mis
ery, making work a burdi n and stoop
ing or lifting an impossibility. The
back aches at night, preventing re
freshing rest and in the morning is
stiff and lame. Plasters and lini
ments may give relief but cannot
reach the cause if the kidneys are
weak. To eliminate the pains and
aches of kidney backache you must
cure the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for dis
ordered kidneys.
The following statement should
convince every Alaskan reader of
their efficiency.
Mrs. S. E. Rainwatr, 1-07 E. Wa
ter St., Albany, Ore., says: "I am
always willing to speak a good word
for Doan's Kidney Pills in return fo
the benefit they brought me after
other medicines and doctors' treat
ment had failed. I could get no
sleep aud in the morning was all tir
ed out. Doan's Kidney Pills made
a cure. Since then when I have had
slight attacks of the old trouble, I
have taken Doan's Kidney Pills.
They have always given the best re
sults."
