Since work started last spring the1
general health of all employees of
the Alaskan Engineering Commission
and the community at large has neen
very good. All camps a swell as the
headquarters have been remarkably
free from Illness cases and serious
accidents. The records to date show
only three fatal accidents on the rail
road work, and only one of those was
directly employed by the Commission
the other two being contract men.
Not one case of a contagious nature
was reported, and only one case of
stomach trouble appeared at the hos
pital for treatment, and that party
was one of the prospectors in the
Broad Pass country. The government
[ hospital report shows less than fif
teen fractures during the entire sea
son.. and with but two exceptions they,
| were in no way serious injuries.
Those who have given this branch of
I railroad (construction careful study,
! covering a period of several years
i and on all the more important work
during that time, state that the healtti
J of the men with the Alaskan Engt-;
! neering Commission is better than!
I any other camp of its size anywhere
in the United States or Canada. This
speaks volumes for the work of Dr.
\V, S. Reedy, surgeon for the Alas
kan Engineering Commission, and
Dr. Stoughton, health officer for thej
Commission, and the townsite of.

FRED MARTIN DENIES STORY Off
WEDDING 'FRISCO GIRL.
A rumor was circulated at Fair-1
banks that Fred. A. Martin, formerly ]
of that place, but now of Anchorage,]
had recently married a sister of j
former Mayor Schmitz, of San Fran-j
cisco, and had won a bride worth j
from $250,000 to $500,000. But Mr. j
Martin comes out with a denial of;
the romantic tale. He says that he
knows Schmitz, and that he was
formerly a partner of Schmitz's
brother, but that he did not know
that Schmitz had a sister, and that
there is absolutely no foundation for
the story.

“They are about the best
clothes I ever wore”
When you strike a suit you always
feel dressed up in and that wears
well, you are liable to brag about it.
Men keep coming back to us for another suit of
Styleplus<tn7
Clothes ,M(.
“The same price the world over."
The gist of what the users say is
this—“I never had a suit I liked
better.”
More models to choose from than you can usually find
anywhere at a medium price. A selection of fabrics
equally big.
The moment you slip on a suit and stand in front of
the mirror you will recognize that the superior set of
the coat and its style is the work of a master. The
workmanship also speaks for itself.
These are the qualities that will bring you back for a
second STYLEPLUS because the price is only $17—
all the time. You would have to pay more if one of the
great makers did not specialize on this one suit.
