HIGH COST OF LIVING
IS RESPONSIBLE FOR
NEW OCCUPATION
LONDON, Aug. 27 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—High railway
fares and the increased expenditure
occasioned by the termination of th*e
war have brought out the profes
sional shopper, who is finding that
her circle of clients is rapidly widen
ing.
One woman who knows the art ol
dress has recently taken up the work
with marked success.
“I have become a professional
shopper,” she said, ‘‘and the women
in the provinces are begining to find
me useful. I work for a great many
women who live a long distance from
London, some of them in the far
northern counties.
‘‘These women, knowing the smart
est and best things can be found only
in London, and by one who knows
London well, prefer to employ me to
do their shopping than to make use of
a catalogue. I dress entire families.
Sometimes people come to me when
they are in London. At other times
they write, leaving the selection of
their dresses entirely in my hands,
and 1 send them just what I know
will suit them. Of course I charge a
commission, but it is infinitely
smaller than the railway fare and the
money wasted in going to the wrong
shop and buying the wrong material.”
KOREANS DETERMINED
TO HAVE INDEPENDENCE
HONOLULU, T. H., Sept. 13 (by
mail).—Koreans of Hawaii are not
satisfied with the promises of reforms
in Korea recently made by the em
peror of Japan and Premier Kara.
“We Koreans do not want any half
way measure,” declared Y. W. Seung,
editor of the Korean National Herald,
and prominent locally in the Korean
independence movement. “We want
complete independence for Korea;
otherwise nothing.”
GERMAN TOY TRADE
WITH AMERICA NO MORE
WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
IN GERMANY, Aug. 25 (by mail).—
German trade journals concede that
the exporting of toys and porcelain
ware from the famous Thuringen dis
trict to the United States is some
thing of the past for many years to
come. However, the journals contend
that, despite all restrictions and pre
cautionary measures by the allied au
thorities, Germany will continue to
control the world market in potas
sium.

The gas boat Alameda, running
out of Ketchikan, under the com
mand of Captain Hans Tiedeman,
sunk twenty miles off Devil Rock
while on her way from Cape Chacon
to Prince Rupert with a catch of hal
ibut. according to word received in
Ketchikan. The boat was going along
in perfectly calm waters when it sud
denly began to sink. Before the men
could get to the dory in the stern they
were up to their armpits in water.
It is thought that a plank in the
stern loosened and let in the water.
When the men got into the dory it
was found they had but one oar
lock and that the boat was leaking
be/lly. One of the three swam and
retrieved a keg which was used as
A bail, and after 18 hours of expo
sure they arrived at Dundas island,
where they were fed and sent to
Prince Rupert. The American con
sul at Prince Rupert provided them
transportation to Ketchikan.
Special dinner served from 11:30
o’clock every day at the City Bakery.
No one should be without an elec
tric plate, especially the kind with 3
different heats. Northwestern Hard
