Orate To Have Neglected Opportunity to Obtain Territory Would Have Been Colossal Blunder, Says Secretary Lane. "Fifty yeurs ugo," says Secretary Lnno of the United States depiirtment of the interior, "Alaska became u part of the United States. "We are only beginning to realize bow tremendous the service was that VVllllum H. Seward performed when he secured for us thut great source of wealth. When Seward was secretnry of stute, few men realized the great potential value of Alaska. Popular Im pression held It n snow-bound wilder ness, u lund of Ice and polur bears. Seward felt that the time would come when the wealth of Alaska would as tound the world. His Judgment toduy Is vindicated. Opposition to the taking of Alaska was as blind as it was virulent. But after llfty yeurs, actual niiuncliil state ments show us, und prove conclusively, thut to have neglected thut opportun ity would have been a colossal blun der, u blunder future generations could never forgive. A moral obligation was one of the primary reasons Unit led to the pur chase of Alaska. Itussla hud given us tho passive support of two fleet! of warships during our Civil wur, and snved us from serious Indignities that threatened from abroad, itussla need ed money. We, of course, could not give It to her outright, but we could let her have It and take In exchange! her barren North American provinces. In the face of a storm of protest the treuty was signed and fully ratified; the ltusslnn ambassador collected L'IM),fMH) from Uncle Sam ; and Alaska edged her way Into a protesting anil Inhospitable democracy. Cost Two Cents an Acre. "Six hundred thousand square miles of territory, ;W4,IKH),000 ncres of land, were bought by our government In 1M07 for n little over $7,lKX,(Hr. That Utile filer In real estate, at cents an acre, has brought something more than throe-quarters of a billion dollar! Into the channels of American trade dur ing the past half century. And the profit! are Just beginning to come In. A scant 85,000 people are living in that vast country, one-tlfth as large as the United States. Due hundred million dollars out of that three-quarters of u billion formed their Contribution for 1010. What It will tio In MM no man can predict. "It Is estimated that lfiu.OOO.OtXl.OOO tona of coal lie in tho virgin coal fields of Alaska. This coal Is gradual ly appearing in the market. Experts say some of the best coal In the world streaks the giant mountains of Alas ku. With these mines opened, with tho new government railroad in ac tive operation, the development of great and rich tracts, both mineral and agricultural, will follow Inevitably. "The great gold fields of the In terior never have been worked ade quately. Extended the advantages of railroad transportation, initio opera tors will soon be able to Increase their output materially. Copper Fields Untouched. Copper mined last year brought be tween $:,,000,000 and $40,000,000 ; and still comparatively little has been taken out. "When Itussla sold Alaska In 18117, she threw In the surrounding sens for good mensure. Since then great musses of fish caught In Alaskan wa ters have brought our people 1830,000,- 000. Euch yeur sees the establishment of new centers and larger canneries. Fur-bearing animals, too, linve In creased our mighty dividend by $05,- 000,000. Alaska's period of trial is over. She has been weighed In the balance and found magnificently worthy." Needed In Making Munitions, Testing Foods and Perfecting Other In dustrlal Activities. "The chemist and mining englneei Will pluy a most Important part in win ning the war for the United States," said Charles Curtis, superintendent of Uncle Sum's customs assaying labora tory in Kansas City, Mo. "The development of explosives and poison gases Is wholly a chemical proc ess. The problems of trench digging, mining rind other earth operations are those of the mining engineer. "Recognizing these facts, the Ameri can Chemical society has offered Its services to the president, und Is mobil izing Its forces for wur. "We are in the best possible positiou to take advantage of the experience and mistakes of the other countries. Germany has made a terrible mistake In sending her chemists to fight in the trenches. Several hundred of the most eminent chemists In Oermany have been killed, and their services are lost, not only to Oermany, but to the world. The chemists should be kept out of the tiring line and put to work In making munitions, testing foods and perfecting other Industrial activities In their line. "American chemists are naturally thinking of new devices which will be of service In the war. The chlorine gas used by Germany Is terrible, but It is mild compared with others that might be employed, such as bromine or fluor ine. These things nre positively devil ish, and It Is terrible to think of using them, but It seems that war stops at nothing these days." SAYS HOT WATER WASHES POISONS FROM THE LIVER Everyone should drink hot water with phosphate In It, before breakfast NEW DRINK INVENTED Uncle Sam's Apple Expert Makes Concentrated Cider. To feel as fine as the proverbial fiddle, we must keep the liver washed clean, almost every morning, to pre vent Its sponge-like pores from clog glng with Indigestible material, sour bile and poisonous toxins, says a noted physician. If you get headaches, It's your liver. If you catch cold easily. It's your liver. If you wake up with a bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath or stom ach becomes rancid, Its your liver. Sallow skin, muddy complexions, wa tery eyes all denote liver uncleanll ness. Your liver Is the most lmpor tant, also the most abused and neglect ed organ of the body. Few know Its function or how to release the dammed up body waste, bile and toxins. Most folks resort to violent calomel, which is a dangerous, salivating chemical which can only be used occasionally because It accumulates In the tissues, also attacks the bones. Every man and woman, sick or well. should drink each morning before breakfast, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate In It, to wash from the liver and bowels the previous day's Indigestible mater lal, the poisons, sour bile and toxins; thuB cleansing, sweetening and fresh enlng the entire alimentary canal be fore putting more food Into the stom ach. Limestone phosphate does not re strict the diet like calomel, because It can not salivate, for it is harmless and you can eat anything afterwards. It Is Inexpensive and almost tasteless, and any pharmacist will sell you a quarter pound, which Is sufficient for a demonstration of how hot water and limestone phosphate cleans, stimulates and freshens the liver, keeping you feeling fit day in and day out.

A statement urging that ns n patri otic duty city residents transform their yards Into gardens, and farmers so di versify their crops as to make each section self-sustaining, was Issued by Carl Vrooman, assistant secretary of agriculture. The greut need In wartime, Mr. Vroo man suld, Is a surplus of wheat with which the nation can feed Its allies.' He also deelured the acreage of soy beans and cow peas should be Increased to augment the source of protein, for which In time of emergency they could take the place of meat for human con sumption.

"One year ago I was very sick nnd I suffered with pains in my side and back until I nearly went crazy. I went to differentdoc tors and they all said I had female trouble and would not get any relief until I would be operated on. I had suffered forfour years before this time, but I kept get ting worse the more medicine I took. Every month Bince I was a young girl I had suffered with cramps in my sides at periods and was never regular I saw your advertise ment in tho newspaper and the picture of a woman who had been saved from, nn operation and this picture was im pressed on my mind. The doctor had given me only two more days to make up my mind so 1 sent my husband to the drug store at once for a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and believe me, I soon noticed a change and when I had finished the third bottle I was cured and never felt better. I grant you the privilege to publish my letter and am only too glad to let other women know of my cure. "Mrs. Thos.McGon IQAL, 3432 Hartville Street, Phila,, Pa. No Manufacturer Will Market It for None Can Get Exclusive Use of the Formula. With the problem of finding a way to utilize the vast percentage of waste In the annual apple crop of the land, one-fourth of which Is lost In the orch ards, H. O. Gore, chemist In charge of Uncle Sam's frnlt and vegetable utlll zatlon laboratory, discovered that this great apple loss was not so much due to lack of cold storage and marketing conditions as to a lack of knowledge on the part of the farmers as to what to do with the culls and apples for re tail sale that would net them any profit. Clder-maklng, though neither diffi cult nor expensive, did not give the solution, for It Is so perishable, so bulky, and the price It brings too low to make It profitable. So, also, cider may be made into vinegar, but there Is a limitation to that market. All sorts of experiments were made toward finding a method of keeping cider, but they did not result satisfac torily. Finally a barrel of frozen elder gave the key. It was observed that when the cider was allowed to freeze naturally, the Ice formed In a nearly solid mass around the outer sides of the barrel, leaving in the center a con centrated nonfrozen liquid which pos sessed all of the flavor, but which con tained much less water. The outer Ice proved to be mostly water, with very little of sugar. Analysis of the con centrated cider proved that It con tained sufficient proportions of the acid nnd sugar to preserve it, and the chemist believed that at last had been found a means to keep cider for the market after Its usual season was past. Laboratory experiments duplicating uature's freezing Anally established the fact that concentrated cider would keep much longer than in Its original condition and In cold storage would keep Indefinitely. Delicious as this new kind of cider Is, it is not being adopted commercial ly, for the simple reason that no man ufneturer Is willing to put it on the market, though all who have sampled It admit Its superiority to many of the soft drinks which now are popular nt the soda fountains. The reason Is that Uncle Sam will not give the formula exclusively to any one bottler. The lending drink purveyors Insist that commercial success In marketing a new drink depends chiefly upon the manufacturer having the exclusive se cret nnd patented recipe which will give his brand a monopoly. However, being always paternal Uncle Sum has gone still further In his efforts to teach the apple raisers the full value of their crops, for he lias had his chemists compile and Is sue a bulletin with nil of the methods directions, cost and even recipes for the utilization of cider made in this new way, and then teaching ways of making splendid apple sirup that Is marketable. The same bulletin gives recipes for a number of dishes In which the sirup forms part. Seek Heirs of Men Who Died in Uncle Sam's Army The endeavor of the Euro pean nations to locate the rela tives of men who have fallen In battle while serving the various foreign legions bears an inter esting comparison to similar ef forts now being undertaken by Uncle Snm to trace the relatives or heirs of men in the American service who have died, some of whom have left valuable prop erty. The United States Marine corps Issued a bulletin contain ing the nnmes of Sergt. Albert Jolly of Melbourne, Australia ; Corporal Thomas Brophy of Dublin, Ireland, and Private Owen Woods (former address unknown), in a further effort to locate their heirs or next of kin. These men, who have been dead over ten years, left effects of considerable value, and numer ous inquiries during that period have failed to locate their right ful heirs. Government Buys Old Trees. Some of the biggest trees In the Se quoia national park have remained in the hands of private owners until re cently. Congress appropriated $50,000 to purchase the trees and the land on which they stood, but $20,000 more was required to settle other claims. The $20,000 has been provided by the Nn tlonal Geographic society for this pur pose, and the entire tract will become the property of the government. Some of the trees thus acquired are believed to be 4,000 years old. Rcdurci Strained, Puffy Ankles Lymphangitis, Poll Evil, Fistula. fiS Roils. Swellings; Slope I IIISIM I and allays pain.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when It fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur In the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which Is so at tractive, use only the old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mix ture Improved by the addition of other ingredients by asking at any drug store for a 50-cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound," which darkens the hair so naturally, so even ly, that nobody can possibly tell It has been applied. You Just dampen a sponge or soft brush with It and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morn ing the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladles with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, Is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications. It also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance.
