Si THE COMMONER uKg&,
AT THE SEATTIJ3 EXPOSITION
Seattle, July 17. One of the most
Interesting exhibits to bo found at
the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition
is in the fisheries building and is
the collection of fishes imported from
tho Hawaiian islands. There are
no less than ono hundred of these
finny specimens of .almost every con
ceivable size, Bhape, form and color
imaginable. Somo are black and
yellow, others a pale green while
some are tri-colored with specks and
stripes resembling an American flag.
Their tints are as gorgeous as the
rainbow and as radiant as a butter
fly. Their shapes are odd in tho ex
treme. Somo have the head of an
ant-eater, others are more than half
head with eyes in tho top of the
back. Ono particular variety have
more the appearance of butterflies
than fish and move about as grace
fully as a sunbeam upon a wave.
This is the first importation of live
fish ever laken frpm the Hawaiian
islands and their unique appearance
causes thousands of visitors to linger
about the aquariums looking upon
their pristine beauty in wonder and
amazement.
That an exposition can be con
ducted on "dry" principles and at
tho same time conducted advantage
ously, Is thoroughly demonstrated
by the receipts and attendance of
the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition.
The grounds and buildings aro
well officered by an efficient police
force, but their duties are confined
chiefly to directing visitors about the
grounds and supplying desired in
formation. With the immense
crowds drawn by special day attrac
tions, there has been no scenes of
disorderllness or brawling, and an
arrest is practically unknown. In
no way has the absence of liquor in
terfered with the regular business
of the Pay Streak, and rthe conces
sionaries operating the .best attrac
tions speak of tho orderliness of the
crowds attending the various shows.
The convenience with which the
entire exposition is arranged, finds
great favor with visitors, and the
ease with which all points of inter
est are reached is particularly com
mendable. Trans-continental travel
is taxing the capacity of the several
railways, and the city is thronged
with a constant changing stream of
visitors.
Benjamin Franklin's cane, which
he presented to General LaFayette
as a token of friendship, is one of
the historical exhibits In the Penn
sylvania booth at the Seattle world's
fair.
A Tacoma policeman had his
badge and money stolen from him
while viewing the exhibits in the
main government building at the
Seattle world's fair. This Is the only
case where the "light fingered gen
try" have plied their trade on the
grounds of the exposition, which is
a remarkable record for a. big fair.
That beauty has curative powers
can ,not be denied after reading this
testimonial. Judge Silas B. Spier
or Mt. Clemens, Mich., suffered a'
severe sprain of his ankle in a run-
f away accident in.Portland, Ore. The
next day he arrived In Seattle and
paid a viglt to the. most beautiful
exposition and Is authority for the
statement that he was so enraptured
by the beauty of tho fair that he
walked around all day on his injured
ankle and at night felt no ill effects.
Owing to the success of the Pay
Streak attractions at the AlaBka-Yukon-Paclflc
exposition six new
"laugh houses" are being erected.
A cone of apples wenty-seven
feet high and ten feet at the base
stands In the, center of the Oregon
building at the Seattle world's fair.
About the base of it is grouped the
horticultural exhibit, the whole mak
ing a most pleasing display.
Tho method of harpooning seal
by tho Eskimo is graphically illus
trated in a large pond in tho Eski
mo village at the Seattle world's fair.
There are a number of live seal
swimming about, but the harpooning
is dono an a "dummy."
Somo $1,200,000 is shown in the
gold booth at the Seattlo world's
fair, consisting of bricks, nuggets,
and dust. The bricks were all made
in tho treasury department exhibit
in the main government building.
Dizzy Spells
That dizzy spell is an important mes
sage from tho heart a plea for help.
If this message receives no attention
others como: Shortness of breath, pal
pitation, weak or fainting spells,
smothering or choking sensations,
pains around tho heart, in sldo or
shoulders, and so on, until it receives
tho necessary help, or la compelled to
give up stop.
You may furnish this aid with
Dr. Miles' Heart Cure
which cures heart disease In every
stage.
Every day wo read of sudden deaths
from heart disease, yet it Is a fact that
tho heart had been pleading for help,
and gavo up the struggle only when It
had exhausted tho last spark of vital
ity and they call'" It sudden.
"For more than six years I was
troubled with my heart I would have
dizzy spells, then difficulty in breath
ing, choking sensations, my heart
would flutter, become painful. I could
not breathe lying down. I commenced
taking Dr. Miles' Heart Cure, and in a
few weeks I was entirely cured." -MINNIE
E. JOHNSON, Olivia, Minn.
Tho first bottle will benefit, if not,
tho druggist will return your nionoy.
