A New Back for an 0ld One—
How It Can Be Done in
Abakan
The back aches at times with
a dull, indescribable feeling, mak
ing you weary and restless; pierc
ing pains shoot across the refT
ion of the kidneys, and again the
levins are so lame that to stoop
is agony. No use to rub or apply
a plaster to the back if the kid
neys are weak. You cannot reach
the cause. Alaskan people would
do well to profit by the following
example.
John I. Conger, prop, printing
shop, 845 N. Seventeenth St., Sa
lem, Oregon, says: “My back got
weak and sore and my kidneys
did not act as they should. I could
hardly straighten, Doan’s Kidney
Pills gave me relief and it took
them only a short time to rid me
of kidney trouble. I publicly en
dorsed them several years ago
and am glad to do so again.
Price, 50c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the
same that Mr. Conger had. Fos

character is reported to have
been made by Keene and his
partscr, who are mining in the
east end, in the slhape of about

was found to be in a perfect stat<

reports a freeze and a good sized
snow storm in 'Ffiat section last

The wagon bridge across |
Snake river is reported in a some
what precarious condition. The
road commission have labored
heroically to save the structure
from the combined action of ice
and high water and have been
successful to the degree that tflie
bridge is still standing although
somewhat bent askew. Much
blasting was necessary to prevest
the ice from carrying the “onerv"
structure off bodily.

Mr. Francis X. Bushman in a
two reel feature entitled A Bro

studios. There is a dramatic
quality and an artistic finish to
all Essanay photoplays that sets
them in a class by themselves- In
addition they hold a human in
