SOME WORRIES FOR THE DON'T
WORRY CLUB
In one o the cities down East there
is a Don't Worry Club. It has a
medical advisor who has just handed
out some more or iess valuable hint*
upon how to drive dull care away
>'or the man who lies awake nights
trying to uiake up his mind whether
to (ire the bloud stenographer or the
slender young clerk, with the wavy
hair and soulful eyes, he offers sev
eral prescript ions. The general idea
they are based upon seems to be al
right, but * hen he oumea to the in
gredients ho certainly falls down. The
first and chief antidote for worry, he
says is the raising of chickens.
We guess he never triad to raise auy.
One grouchy hen, with half her fea
thers off and possoaaed of a talent
for getting through fences can cause
more trouble m a neighborhood than
a pretty grass widow and a nibby old
maid.
Then the doctor suggests gardening.
Now gardening, like raising chickens,
is a fine art. The beginner has more
trouble, longer drawn out thau when
be learned to ride a bicycle alone in
;he middle of a dirt road. Every
bird, dog, cat and chicken is his en
eiuy, not to mention the weeds and
the dear little chicken* of the neigh
bors. And when, after weeks of anx
iety and back breaking work, his
squash come up us gourds, and his
sweet corn as cow fodder, if they
conic up at all, he is alnioet ready
to go out aud bite a tree in two.
tk., nr^s^rintinn is nicnicS.
l>ossibly the doctor hasn't done any
picnuking since he was a boy, when
ants under his shirt and bugs in his
hair were unconsidered trifles that
formed a part of every day's affairs
and when pie that had been sat on
was. almost as great a delicacy as a
sour green apple. But to give him
the benefit of the doubt, maybe his
idea of a picnic is to stand at a safe
distance and watch the others do it
The medical advisor of the Don't
Worry Club is probably all right in
bis way, but for all that one can't
help feeling that he shoald revise
his list of remedies. ? Cleveland Lead

THE YELLOW ASTOR
John Jacob Astor? the golden as
tor of New York swell society ? has
had a curious experience in his mat
rimonial ventures.
His first wife was Miss Ava I*
Willing, a daughter of the Quaker
City. She was evidently willing to
dispense with his society for she di
vorced him in l!K?y and Quite willingly
look back the freedom that was hers
before she surrendered the name of
Willing.
It appears to be very certain from
the attitude of fashionable church
dignitaries toward his latest venture
in matrimony, that his attempt to
marry Miss Madeline Force will re
sult disastrously ? that Miss Force
will be forced to give him up ? or,
i
what is much worse, give up her en
viable station in fashionable society.
i>atest reports have it that Miss
IY?rce is ill from so much worry over
the a/fair ? wonder if the yellow as
tor will curl up and die?
There is considerable activity in
Southeastern Alaska. Skagway, Ju
neau and Douglas each has a nine.
? Fairbanks Times.
They certainly have, and have bad
every year since four years before
Fairbanks was struck.

PUT YOUR SHOULDER TO THE
WHEEL
Hugh Molyaeaux, after reaching
Pleasant Camp and surveying- the sit
uation, has sent word to Haines that
he, for tho Canadian Government will
undertake to put la a good substan
tial bridge over the Klehena River
near Pleasant Camp if the citizens
of Haines will furnish the pile driver.
This bridge is to be built in Ameri
can territory, and will be an expens
ive proposition putting in a pile bridge
but it seems useless o build any oth
er kiud. Let us not lose this oppor
tunity to have a good bridge once an
for all. ? Hain>? Pioneer Press.
Now is the time when one's
thoughts naturally turn to dwell upon
ALASKAN SOUVENIRS and when a
desire to possess such takes an un
controllable hold on one. WE ARE
IN BUSINESS TO SATISFY THAT
DESIRE. Alaska souvenirs of all
kinds, ancient and modern, souvenirs
that appeal to the tastes, that satis
fy both the eye and the pocket-book,

of us will make a friend for life.

kinds of Jewelry AT PRICES THAT
ARE RIGHT.
