is the ouject cf the shipping board’s j

that the Admiral line, also, would be
unwilling to reduce its charges after

Many of the citizens of Alaska are
wondering just where this shipping
board craze is leading the territory.

seen, is a complete change of front on
the plans of the board and an obvious
desire of that body to create porma-.

When you are wo.ncd by backache;
By iamenc.fi and urinary diso.ders—
Jon’t experiment with an untried
ncdicine.
Do as thousands of people are doing.
Use Doan's Kidney Pills.
Read this man’s experience:
J. W. Liming, carpenter, 47 Pine
it., Santa Cruz, Calif., says: *‘My
kidneys were weakened during the
Spanish- American War while soldier
ing in the Philippine Is’ands. My back
ached almost constantly and made
it hard for me to stoop or do any
'ifting. My kidneys acted very fre
quently and irregularly. I tried Doan’s
Kidney Pills and they were just what
l needed. They soon rid me of the
backache and put my kidneys in good
shape. I know Doan’s can’t be bent
for kidney trouble and I advise any
one having weak kidneys to try
them.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
s^mp^y ask for a kidney remedy -get
Doan’s Kidney Pills— the same that
