'      -   DRUDGING  CLAIMS  Dawson.���������-Not since the days of,I ho  wild stampede of 1897 and 1S!)8, has  the. Klondike known such excitement  as prevails today. The phenomenal  success of the two Mg dredges on the  Klondike river has given a marvelous impetus to the staking of all  low-lying bottoms for dredge purposes.  Scores of streams, have boon staked  in eveiy quarter, and scores of applications are being made for submerged river gravels. All .the land along  the shore of the Yukon within live  miles of Dawson, noith and south,  is token up, wand the river bottom  along the same sUetch is applied for.  for dredging.  The Mazie May is among the latest streams to be stampeded for  drodge purposes. R. Pa tion and ������������������;-  sociates staked the first claims on  the creek, and h.ive applied for the  grants to the ground. They were  accompanied by vi'uiLe a number of  men. Patton creek, a tubulary to  the Ma/.ie May, also  was staked.  The Afiazie Way is a tributary of  the Stewart, forty miles above its  mouth. Tbe staging on Mazie was  begun at a point fourteen miles  above its mouth.  Thc,Mazie May was staked several  years ago for ordinary placer purposes. At that time -a. number of ]  fine nuggets were: secured on the,'i  creek, and it promised to become a  producer, but water and other .troubles discouraged the miners.

COMMON SENSE AND  GOOD   ADVICE  It is encouraging to read in the  "St. Louis Medical and Surgical  Journal," one of the leading medical journals of the United States,  the following arguments regarding  medicine:  "No sane physician will condemn a  drug or medicine because an overdose results unfavorably, for if we  did we might better quit the practice of medicine than to treat patients with drugs so inert that overdoses will-never do harm. Any drug  or medicine which is safe if taken  according to the directions on the  package, is a1 safe remedy in the  sense in which the word "safe" is  used in medicine."  That is the only safeguard for either the doctor's prescription or the  patent medicine; to be safe it must  be taken according to directions.  THE COMFORTABLE WAY.
