YUKONEKS AT FKOXT
Dawson News, Juue 14: The mes
sage just , received to th© effect that
the second Canadian army has ar
rived on the continent of Europe
with Generaal Samuel B. Steele in
command will have a peculiar mean
ing to all old-time Klondikers.
Those who knew "Col. Sam Steele,"
as he was ranked -when in service
in the i'ukon 'in early days, Will
rest assured that he will acquit
himstif with credit, and they will
watch his experience In the great
strung'.* with utmost Interest. He
seems to have been born to .be
thrown in th«> midst of the great
uctio.-s of his beloved.Dominion in
his daj. He was in the center of
stirring scenes In the development
of wvstem Canada, -was entrusted
with responsibilities of no minor im
portance when the Klondike excite
ment was a world fever, was in the
South African fight, and now the verj;
foremost iu the greatest struggle
iu which Canada and Britain and
even the world, ever have engaged.
With General Steele are other no
less sterling sons of Canada who
toraierly were in the Klonidke.
Some also are with the first and
third contingents. Col. Tobin, hav
ing left here iu recent years, seems
almost direct from this city. Some
of the lads are in East Africa, some
already struggling on the battle
fields of Europe. Some Klondik
ers joined the French forces, some
the Russians, and doubtless If the
facts could be traced out men. who
had been in the Yukon also might
be fouud in ranks of the Belgians,
the Italians, the Montenegrins and
the Serbians. J
Other Klondikers are going. Ev
ery once in a while some new re
cruit is reported who had been in
the North. The Boyle Yukon con
tingent, after long delays, also has
gone east, determined to make good
despite adversities. Harry -McLen
nan, the first Yukon boy known to
have fallen on an European battle
field for his Empire and the Do
minion, may have been followed
since theu by others. A particular
effort should be made to obtain the
nam«s through some official source
of every Yukcner who went to the
front, and those names should be
enrolled on scrolls of honor in
sonif public place in Dawson, to
Oe preserved through the years. The
:>;unt-s iu particular of those who
tall on the field of battle should
><e retained. It will be a graceful
service to the honor and the mem
ory of the brave sons of the North
and a movement that will help Yu
kon keep her place in the Bun
light of the Empire.
IOKEST KIKES
Colonist: The season being un
usually dry, and the p roc ip tat ion
durine the winter having been less
than usual, there is grave danger
that forest fires may be very serious
unless campers, sportsmen and all
others, resorting to timbered areas,
either for business or pleasure, are
exceedingly careful to Bee that they
do nothing that may set vegetation
on fire.
Remember that a lighted match,
carc.»ssly thrown away, may cause
damage amounting to many thous
ands of dollars; that a cigarette
dropped on the ground may lead to
very grave consequences; that an
imperfectly extinguished camp-fire
may call for a great outlay of mon
ey; (hat a person /who sees an la- |
ci'iier.t blaze among vegetation ougtfl
to put it out immediately; that one
who sees a fire under way, -which
he cannot stop, ought to report it at
once to the nearest fire warden, or
to someone who will see that pre
cautionary measures. are promptly
taken. It is Impossible to be too
particular. A little fire may be
.lighted to boil wafer for a lunch,
and what seemed to have been pre
caution has been taken to see that
It i3 extinguished; ibut a little
ember may be alight, and from it
a great conflagration may arise
Therefore, do not make a tftrtj in
timbered lands, .until everything
inflammable has been removed from
the spot on which the fire is to he
kindled. This may entail a little
trouble, but that should make no
difference. Better do without fire
altogether than light one without
being sure that it cannot sprgad.

GET IDE HABIT
OF HAPPINESS
Men and women should make It
a part of their daily walk . to put
much joy and no bitterness into the
lives of tho6e.about them. It is
<i jot, induced to come into.contact
with sweet-spirited men and women
—people who cart lor their fellows
and companions, who wish to spend,
a better day among men. There.is
plenty of room for improvement,
rhere are far too many who, load
ed down with the cares of life, go
about crabbed—thoughtlessly tramp-1
ing upon toes of these about them,
casting firebrands among those
about them, saying anl doing little
'hings which.hurt, more perhaps in
the long run, thg perpetrators, but
doing injury Just the same. This
can be changed, and with no great
effort. Get the habit. It Is the
Utile things htat count, and if on
the other side of helpfulness the
world would be changed ere the in
fluence causing it could be recog
nized.—Greenville Banner.

The Mistake Is Made by Many Al

Look for the cause of backache.

cause.

You must SPt the kidneys work

Mrs. Eliza Harris, S13 Emerson
Ave., Hoquiam, Wash., says: "For
several years. I was bothered with
kidney trouble, especially in the
winter. The paius and dull, heavy
acbe in my back were very severe,
had other ailments which showed
thai my kidneys .weren't doing
their work right. Doan's Kidney
Pilla relieved the kidney trouble
and the backache left me."

HAIR NATURALLY ABUNDANT.
«rt« It Is Free of Dnndrnfl, It Gro\n
Luxuriantly.
Kalr preparations and dandruff euros,
as a rule, are sticky or Irritating affairs
that do no earthly good. Hair, when not
diseased, grows naturally, luxuriantly.
Dandruff is the cause of nine-tenths of
all hair trouble, and dandruff is caused
by a germ. The only way to cure dand
ruff is to kill the germ; and, so far. tho
Only hair preparation that will positively
destroy the germ is Newbro's HerplciJe—
absolutely harmless, free from grease,
(edlment, dye matter or dangerous drugs.
It allays Itching instantly; makes hair
flossy and soft as silk. "Destroy the
Cause, you remove the effect." Sold by

Feeding by Law.
A law to punish by Imprisonment per
sons found guilty of overfeeding was
actually promulgated in France during
the reign of Charles IX. when the cost
of living reached an unconscionable
height It was then ordained that no
person should eat more than three
courses at a meal, the amount to be
served at each course being also pre
scribed. Heavy fines were imposed for
any breach of this law.—Pail Mall
Gazette.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local application*, n* thoy cannot reach
tho diseased portion of tho <ar. There is
only one way to euro deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
cuuard bv an Inflamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube Ib Inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or Imperfect hearing, and when It Is
entirely closed, Dcafnrss l« the result, and
unless tho Inflammation can bo taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi
tion. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are cat'.s»*d by Catarrh,
which Is nothing but an Inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot bo cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
