A SHORT time ago word came
to Prince Rupert that a big
strike had been made; near
Stewart. Where the Portland
canal divides British Columbia
and Alaska there are Prince Rupert
and Stewart, one at th* head of the
canal and one at the beginning, twn
mining camps just emerging from the
tented stage and talking about streets
and sewerage, quite confident of gre u
ness in the near future.
When the news came first Stewart
was Stewart Camp. Already It is re
spectfully called Stewart Town ant
Stewart City. The population has

them." There are some men famous
In thf> annuls of mining adventure who
have gono back to the love of their
youth and disappeared into the British
Columbia wilderness with their kits on
their backs.
i no onicers 01 tno geological survey
at Ottawa, while admitting the richness
of the country, warn intending
miners of the difficulties of the trip.
Prince Rupert is the objective point of
the Grand Trunk Pacific's proposed
line through Hritish Columbia, and the
Hritish Columbia & Alaska railway la
intended to pass near, but neither of
those roads is as yet built.
So far the engineers and prospectors
who have left Stewart and gone
into the heart, of the gold tields have
had great difficulty in getting enough
| food, to nay nothing or carrying
I blankets and Implements. The town
c >tands at the month of a Utile river
Known as Hear Creek, a stream running
through a valley only a mile
wide. On either side rises a wall of
mountains, precipitous and sometimes
as high as f>,000 feet. In theso raoun|
tains lies not only the gold, hut many
other valuable minerals, and they have
j to he sealed somehow. It is hard
I enough work without the task of car
I rying supplies, and for men burdened
] with baggage the difficulties are
j great. There will he considerable snf
j lering and privation for a time, al
I I least.
The residents up that way, oddlj
enough, are not wildly enthusiastic
. over this gold discovery. Minera
wealth is an old story to them. The]

AN INTOLERABLE ITCHING
"Just about two years ago, some
form of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
it grew steadily worse until, when I
combed my hair, the scalp became
raw ana me cnaa 01 me comu-ieeui
would be wet with blood. Most of the
time there was an intolerable itching,
in a painful, burning way, very much
as a bad, raw burn, if deep, will itch
and smart when flrst beginning to
heal. Combing my hair was positive
torture. My hair was long and tangled
terribly because of the blood and
scabs. This continued growing worse
and over half my hair fell out. I was
in despair, really afraid of becoming
totally bald.
"Sometimes the pain was so great
that, when partially awake, 1 would
scratch tho worst places so that my
finger-tips would bo bloody. I could
not sleep well and, after being asleep
a short time, that awful stinging pain
'?would commence and then 1 would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said it must bo salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
a toilet soap before, I now decided to
order a set of the Cuticura Remedies
i ?Cuticura Soap, Ointment and IMlls.
I used them according to directions
for perhaps six weeks, then left off,
as tho disease seemed to be eradicated,
but toward spring, eighteen
months nen. there was a slieht re
turn of tho scalp humor. I com,
menced the Cuticura treatment at
otice, so had very little trouble. On
my scalp I used about one half a cake
of Cuticura Soap and half a box of
Cuticura Ointment in all. Tho lirst
time I took six or seven bottles of Cuticura
l'ills and the last time three
bottles?neither an expensive or tedious
treatment. Since then I have
had no scalp troublo of any kind.
Standing up, with my hair unbound, it
j comes to my kner-s and had it not been
for Cuticura I should doubtless be
| wnouy nam.
