PERSONAL MENTION
Kev. J. Wesley Gienk, who for two
years has occupied the pulpit of the
Methodist Kpiscopal church in this city
will leave with his family on the Jef
ferson to.lay for Seattle where he will
attend the Methodist conference, which
will open shortly in that citv. It is
with regret that The Alaskan learns
that Mr. Glenk will return to Skagway
ao more. He is a polished piilnit ora
tor and an excellent cituea and the de
parture of Rev. Gienk aod family will
be a great loss to Skagway It is the
sincere wish of The Alaskan that it may
go well with them wherever they may
in future locate.

Major Charles E. Woodruff, surgeon
it the I'ulted States army, the most
emiueut living student of effects of
sunlight on white raeu and perhaps the
oulv historical scholar who bus Investi
gated thoroughly the part which the
complexion has played lu the drama of
the rise and fall of uations, said the
other ilav that sunlight Is Increasing
tuberculosis. Insanity and suicide
among humanity.
"God's sunlight has credit for more
false merits than auv other of the
many superstitions to which men have
fallen victims." he declared. "We rec
ognize the fact that It kills bacteria,
but we tguorantly fail to reflect It has
i >ist as fatal an effect on the proto
plasm which composes the human sys
tem. 'God's suuliglit' Is producing ueu
rastheuia and cardiac feebleness and
anaemia, is promoting tuberculosis and
increasing Insanity and suicide every
day not only in the tropics, but here in
New York.
" 'God's i' loud In ess.* wherever it is
foimil. the shade of dark houses and
tiee< and awnings, is promoting health,
sanity and long life.
"M"st of the I'nited States lies south
of the latitude of Constantinople, part
of it a- far south as Nubia. New York
is no farther from the equator than is
Rome. People of southern Europe are

climate Is precisely suited to them.
They will flourish.
Scandinavians are too far south In
Minnesota and nre degenerating. The
Englishman could not maintain himself
in New England and already has been
replaced by the Frenchmau. It Isn't
a matter of beat at all, but of light.
"Unless he abandons this nonseuse
Hi?>ur God's suushlne' and artificially
provides himself with defense against
light, his dangerous enemy, the blond
man, who lacks a natural defense
against it, evolved lu centuries of ex
istence on the shores of the Mediter
ranean. will perish."
Major Woodruff* s thesis is iu brief
that man, originally a dark skinned
and hairy animal of the forest, a deui ,
zen or cave dweller of nocturnal hab
its. afraid of the sun and Injured by it
survives as the creature into which he
has now_evoIved only by virtue of th.
piguieotatlon of the skin iu proportion
to the degree of light to which h,- is
exp 'wed.

He took from u portfolio a French
print of the seventeenth century that
portrayed two men. with cumbrous

of China tea.
"This shows you," the old man said,
"the antiquity of lea smoking. It was

ago. Rlegnt mentions It, and Grand
d'Au-say In his 'Illstoire de la Vie

One day. says T. H. S. Escott In "So

were lounging about the hall at Cud

refrain, "The devil Is dead," when the
bishop suddenly apiieared.

placing oil'1 hand on each head, said in
