Withdraws Seattle
The City of Seattle has been with
drawn from the Southeastern Alaskan
run for the winter. The Humltoldi
and the Cottage City will be continued
on the run, the former making thrc
trips next month and the latter two.
This is in line with the policy of all
the steamship companies in reducing
their service in the winter time. The
withdrawal of the Princess May by the
Canadian Pacific has already been an
nounced. While there are rumors of
the withdrawal of one of the Alaska
Steamship Company's tlyers, that com
' pany has made no announcement of its
1 winter plans as yet.

The I'ncomfnrtnltlc Collar.
"I don't know what Is the matter
with these collars." said Smartboy to
the salesman. "They seemed all right
when I bought them yesterday. But 1
had to use a button hook to connect
theui with my collar button this morn
ing. They tit as though they were In
tended for my little brother."
"There are two ways to put on a col
lar." replied the salesman, "and you
seem to have chosen the wrong way.
I noticed it when you were here yester
day, but It was not up to me to tell
you. I've been Jumped on for toIuii

once. Most men think It does not make
any difference whether you buttou the
right side or the left of a collar first.
It makes all the difference In the_

Undo that collar you are wearing, but
ton the right side first, and you'll be
