Every once in a while it is brought
home to us that Alaska, after all, is
a pretty good old place to live in. At
least we are not bothered with the
Ttold-ups that are on the increase in
the Coast cities. Recently a heavy
fog descended on Seattle, under cover
of which pickpockets and thugs
seemed to swarm up from everywhere
and worked quickly and successfully. |
Even cripples were not immune to
these get-rich-quick artists, for men
hobbling on crutches were held up
and robbed.

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

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.
All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make u»
a trial shipment; the result will make you a steady shipper.
