Some very rich placer mines have been opened in Alaska, or Some min- ing speculators have a lot of chances to be worked off on.a too confiding public. The stories of returning min- ers from the Yukon district with, large amounts of gold as the result of a ‘ few months’ washing are so circumstantial as .to give them an air of credibility, and if it were not for the report of lakes of oil and mountains of coal which have appeared in print simul- ‘ taneously with that of the remarkable gold discoveries, there would be little reason for suspecting the truthfulness of the latter. There is no good reason, however, why Alaska should not be as rich in gold as California in its palmiest days, and no one need be surprised at an im- mense increase in the gold production of the frozen territory during the com- ing year. Owing to the severe climate and the difficulty of reaching the placer diggings of the Yukon, gold digging will be an expensive industry, but your real gold hunter will not be deterred by frost. Gold will buy fuel and a good many other articles of necessity and luxury, and gold will be mined at any hazard wherever it is known to exist in paying quantities. 4 ‘ ‘vr lists Odin This Church. Thief-sis nothing slow about the good women of Indianapolis, and the men out that way can’t accuse them of doing things by halves. They not only re- move their hats in theatres and other J places of public amusement, but they have put their veto on the church hat. It all came about in this way: In the First Baptist church of that city there is an organization called the Woman’s Circle. It has a membership of 125, in- cluding many prominent? society wom- en. Atia- r’eéént meeting, ,Mrs-."CD. M. Parry suggeSted that it would be an excellent idea for the members of the circle to remove their hats in church,and that all the women in the congregation would be sure to follow their good ex- The suggestion took like the and ,Mrs. ample. measles in a free school, Parry hastily put it in the shape of a res- olution. Mrs. Arthur Jordan, presi- dent of the circle, was enthusiastic over ' the idea, and spoke in favor of the res- olution,which was adopted unanimously. The Women decided that every member Shouldremove her hat the following Sunday and the congregation were amazed when they. saw it done. The men in the cOngregation were so- en- thusiastic concerning the stand taken by the circle that the ladies of all the other churches in that city are said to be talking about following the exam- ple of their Baptist sisters, and many predict that the md-wment will spread to other cities. ’ When Mrs. Parry the result of her work, according to the Chicago Times-Herald, she said: “I offered the resolution in the circle that led to taking off hats and bonnets last Sunday, and I think we all have reason to be proud of the result. I do not think the church ought to be behind the times in any good thing, and now when thereis a movement to prevent hat wearing in theaters-and other pub- lic places, of amusement I think it is high time for the church to take action, too- There are two sides to this hat question; one affects the wearer and the other. those about her. My atten- tion was. first called to the matter by the manifest comfort that hatless men enjoy in public places, and I have often thought that they were to be envied. was asked about > No one inexperienced in the matter can appreciate the in convenience and discomfort that comes from wearing a hat or bonnet in a crowded church on a hot day. Besides this, I have always thought that the complaint of men that - hats and bonnets, especially when heightened by flowers and other trim- ' mings, are a nuisance was not without some justice, and I am now convinced, after our experience of last Sunday, that we women are not only more com- fortable ourselves without hats, but es- cape giving a cause of offence to others. ' gs ‘ Some of the members. of the Circle solemnly resolved to do, but those who did say that they are satisfied that the timid ones Will do so in time. Certain- ly the arguments against hats have special force this year, for never in the history of millinery have such cas- cades of lace, mountains of ribbons, fields of flowers,a‘nd towering forests of feathers been used for embellishing woman’s headgear as are seen this summer. The president of the circle says that the Sunday they tried the ex- periment was the first for some time than a partial view of the face of the minister during his sermon, and de- clares she never appreciated a sermon so much before. C “In fact,” she went on, “I did not know what I had been losing allthis time till I experienced the comfort of having an unobstructed view of his face during the entire discourse. We may have looked odd to some: and no doubt some of us seemed a little awk- ward—possibly felt so——but these things disappear in time, and we are all sure that we shall get more good out of the services by reason of the change. Itvis comerting to know that you are not in the way of some one else, at any rate, and we. will have this experience when vbareheaded in church.” A crusty New York bachelor, who asserts that he has been to church but once in five years because he could not see the preacher for the women’s hats, thinks that the barbarous custom, as he terms it, of the wearing of hats and bonnets in public places is a relic of ancient oriental times when it was a badge of brazenness for a woman to have her face uncovered. Theivomen have clung to it so long that he believes it will be impossible for them to break the Gustomi but the Indianapolis wo— men vow that they ‘will not retrace their steps now that they have started out to secure the comfort to themselves and remove the grievance of the big church hat from others, and when wo- individually and collectively, says that she won’t—well, she won’t.

When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the. back, is also Convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT'TO DO. There-is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer‘s Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef- fects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urin- ate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.
