A .New Back for an Old One. How
it I'uu bo Done iu Alaska.
The back aches at times with a
dull, indescribable feeling, making
you weary and restless; piercing
pains shoot across the region of the
kidneys, and again the loins are so
lame that to stoop is agony. No use
to rub or apply a plaster to the
back if the kidneys aro weak. You
cannot reach the cause. AlasKau
residents would do well to profit
by the following example.
John I. Conger, prop, printing
shop, S45 N\ Seventeenth St., Salem,
Oregon, says; "My back got weak
and Eore and my kidneys did not
act as they should. At times I
could hardly straighten. Doan's1
Kidney Pills gave me relief and it
took them only a short time to
rli* me of kidney trouble. I public
ly ei^dorsed them several years ago
a-d am glad to do so again."
Priec 50 c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—ge
Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that
Mr. Conger had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

Haines, Sept. 4—Mr. Gardner,
who lias been superintendent ut
the Pacific Fisheries Company's
cannery at Chilkoot has severed his
connection with the company, and
is in Haines for a few days be
fore his departure for thp states.
The jury in the Inquest held on
the body of William Orenshaw, who
was found dead in liis cabin in the
31st, ult., at Wells, found by their
verdict, that deceased died from
heart failure. The body was
brought down and lai<l to rest in
the Arctic Brotherhood's cemetery
at this place.
Mr. R. Ogden, principal and Mrs.
A. P. McLean as primary teacher,
will open tho public school here
on next Tuesday, Monday boing la
bor day, and a legal holiday.
A sad accident occurred yester
day, somewhere in the neighbor
hood of Davidson glacier, in which
J. T. Herb lost his life by drown
ing. Mr. Herb was in a fishing
boat with his wife and soveral
other persons and was being towed
by a launch belonging to the Tee
Harbor Packing company. It was
discovered that the tow line was
breaking and Mr. Herb was try
ing to attach another to tho bow of
the fish boat when he lost his
balance and fell overboard. As
soon as possible the launch was
turned around to try to pick him
up, but failed to find any trace of
him, and it is thought by some
that the boat may have struck the
unfortunate man while making tho
turn. Besides his wife, the de
ceased leaves a mother, who lives
at Layfayette, Indiana.
THE KXOCKKR
After God had finished the rattle
snake,, the toad- and vampire, ho
hnd an awful substance left with
which ho made the knocker. A
knocker is a two-legged animal
with a cork screw soul, a water
logged brain and a combination
back-bone made of jelly and glue.
Where other people have their
hearts he carries a tumop of rot
ten principles. When the knock
er comes down the street honest
people turn their backs, tho angels
in heaven take pecipitate refuge
behind their harps, and the devil
locks the gates of hell.

SIRIUS. THE DOG STAR.
It Was Given Its Canine Name by tho
Superstitious Egyptians.
The giant sun. the bright star Slrius,
Is now called the "(log star" from the
very ancient aud curloua custom of
personification. The great nations of
remote antiquity personified every ac
tivity of nature—that is. compared
them to livii.g men or animals.
They didn't know a thing of any
law of nature, they said that motion
Is caused by living animals, because
only animals have' the Inscrutably;
mysterious power ot' moving them-i
selves. No wonder the ancients were
astonished to see an annual move it
self. And the wonder has vastly in
creased uow, for the ablest scientific
man cannot possibly see how au anii
ma! is able (o move.
The overflowing or the Nile was the
chief event in all o_f Egypt Without
this pouring of water over the hind,
once each year, the valley would be a.
desert The Egyptians at a certain,
period in their long history noticed,
that when they tirst saw the star Sirius
early In the inurnyig he-lore sunrise
the Nile river began,to rise and pour
over the banks. They personitied
Slrius as a watchdog, watching the
sun and the Nile and the land of
Egypt its people, destiny and harvests.
The Egyptian name of t!i*- Nile was
Siris. and the faithful dog watching
in the sky was finally named Sirius
Centuries later their horrible religion
taught that it was necessary to mur
der cr sacrifice a dog to the s'.ar Sirlus
to .secure its aid in growing grains and
herds. This terrible habit of slaughter
ing auhuals to propitiate imaginary
gods descended to tho Greeks and Ro
mans. The Uomans named the stars
near Slrius the constellation Canis
