NO CONVENTIONALITIES HERE
There is no country on the face of the globe wheie
the conventionalities and social amenities are so little
cared for as in Alaska. The day laborer’s wife meets with
the banker’s wife, and the banker s bettei half, . *s
an Alaskan, is interested in her neighbors and their fami
lies, even though they have little of the thing Shakespeai e
calls trash. A long time ago, probably in the troglodyte
period, one cave dweller had one more thigh bone of the
wooly rhinocerous than had her neighbor’s wife, and hav
ing little tact and no education, it swelled her up considei
^ ^This was the birth of the thing they call society; re
sponsible for more degredation and more misei v than
Eve’s curiosity and more bitter to those outside the pale
than the waters of Angustura.
The primitive settlers of Alaska were too tew to
draw lines of social caste, consequently they were happy
and contented with their lot. A dietary of beans to pro
vide the vitamines and bacon for their proteins, proteoses
and peptones was sufficient for their daily fare, and then
nearest approach to society was staged when they went
to town, and met the “Blondined Kid” or “Skagway Nell
at the dance halls. The man with the poke was the most
popular with the lady named Lou, and all was meuy and
jov was unconfined. ,
With the passing of time we have become ettet, and
probably more cultured. We use napkins,’salad forks
and finger bowls, and place our bones in a dish pi ovided
for the purpose instead of throwing them over our shoul
der to the dog, and licking our fingers free from grease.
We now have bridge parties, hang our clothes in a closet
instead of on the old drying rack over the stove where
•edolent waves of sweaty feet mingled with the bacchana
lian breath of the neighbor in the next bunk. But are we
as well satisfied, healthy or contented as in the days when
every maid was a swan and stud our principal diversion .
Saratorial accidents at the beaches have been reduced

WAKE UP YOUR
LIVER BiLE— |
WITHOUT CALOMEL
And You’ll Jump Out of Bed in
the Morning Rarin’ to Go
If you feel sour aud sunk and the world
looks punk, don’t swallow a lot of salts,
mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing
gum and expect thera to maae you suddenly
sweet and buoyant aad full of sunshine.
For they can’t do tt. They only move ths
bowels and a mere movement doesn’t get at
the cause. The reason for your down-and-out
feeling is your liver. It shovid pour out two
pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
If this bile is not flowing freely, your food
doesn’t digest. It just decays in the bowels.
Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a
thick, bad taste and your breath is foul,
skin of* ‘.iks out in blemishes. Your head
aches .. a feel down and out. Your whole
system , poisoned.
It takes those good, old CARTER'S
LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two
pounds of bile flowing freely and make you
feel “up and up.” They contain wonderful,
harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing
when it oomes to making the bile flow freely.
But don’t ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter’s
Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carter's
Little Liver on the red labeL Resent » j
