“No Coal, Paris Stops Dancing,” ca
ble news heading. Over here the dance
!« just beginning.
The only class of workers who seem I
to be maintaining the prewar pace are
professional thieves.
Save coal! If wives must throw
something at their husbands let them
use a flatiron hereafter.
The price cf coal in England is to be
reduced $1.25 a ton. It looks like an
idea that is worth importing.
The Englishman who has begun a
“war against snobbery” is attacking
British humor at the source.
Gen. Pershing’s fame is established.
People have begun to name cigars, res
taurants and new towns for him.
Tiie king of Italy is to visit this
country next summer. Let the kings
come on. The more the merrier.
During the coal crisis fresh air fiends
should be required to take their spe
cial form of revelry out of doors.
How many people there are who sit
up nights thinking of ways to bother
tbe life out of the poor old public!
Workless'days go hand In hand with
coalless days, hut it takes only a few
such days to make a payless pay day.
A good many people are learning for
the first time that coal makes that
bright light in an incandescent lamp.

“When Labor Shall Have Just Reward and
Indolence Alone Shall Want”
By Premier LLOYD GEORGE, Message to Great Britain
'._ ! i
Millions of gallant young men have fought for the
new world. Hundreds of thousands died to establish it.
If we fail to honor the promise given them we dishonor
ourselves.
What does the new world mean? What was the
old world like? It was a world where toil for myriads
of honest workers, men and women, purchased nothing
better than squalor, penury, anxiety, wretchedness ; a
world scarred by slums, disgraced by sweating, where
unemployment, through the vicissitudes of industry,
brought despair to multitudes of humble homes; a
world where, side by side with want, there was waste of the inexhaustible
riches of the earth, partly through ignorance and want of forethought,
partly through entrenched selfishness.
If we renew the lease of that world, we shall betray the heroic dead.
We shall be guilty of the basest perfidy that ever blackened a people’s
fame. Nay! We shall store up retribution for ourselves and our chil
dren.
The old world must and will come to an end. No effort can shore it
up much longer. If there be any who feel inclined to maintain it, let them
beware lest it fall upon them and overwhelm them and their households in
ruin.
It should be the sublime duty of all, without thought of partisanship,
to help in the building' up of the new world, where labor shall have its
just reward and indolence alone shall suffer want.

Prices above quoted are all for No. 1 best grade furs.* Lower grades, in

WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACTURED
FURS IN THE NORTHWEST, and all we ask of you, Mr. Shipper, is to give
us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that we pay more
for furs and make quicker returns than you can get anywhere in the country.
We have been in business in Alaska for 36 years and have built up a very
extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all parts of the United States*
Canada, and in a great many European cities.
By shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaska industry but you are
helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely, as we buy direct from the trapper and
trader and sell direct to the consumer; .thus we are able to pay you a better
price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS THE SAME DAY
SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
If so desired, when your shipment amounts to $100 or more, we will wire our
bid, and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense and we will
ship to any place you designate.
Adi we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make ua
a trial shipment; the result will make you a steady shipper
