Old Shipmates Set Sail on the Uncharted Sea
CHICAGO.—When the clipper Olga Bjornson spread its canvas some fifty
years ago and stood out through the Skagerrack with the ports of the
world on its cargo lists, Olaf Johnson and his friend, Early Jacobson, were
members of the crew.
Their purpose was to see and
know7 life, to grasp hands and be hail
fellow well met with adventure.
For nearly fifty years they sailed
the seven seas together. Singapore
knew them, and Port Said, and Cal
cutta, and the Ivory coast, and the
isles of the Pacific, and the Arctic,
and all the lands and waters visited
by men who go down to the sea in
ship^.
Fifty years—and finally the sea
lost its charm for the two old shipmates. They retired and went to Chicago
to live.
Naturally, the partnership still holding fast, they embarked together on
their last great adventure, this time on an uncharted sea—death. They died
on adjoining cots in Alexian Brothers’ hospital after having been overcome
by gas.
The aged men were found in their cottage at the rear of 3213 Clifton
avenue by Ernest Lindbloom, a son-in-law of Johnson, wTho lived next door.
vThe gas was escaping from a plate In the kitchen stove.
Both men w'ere widowers. Six months ago Jacobson, who did odd jobs
ha a shop near his son’s house, had left the latter’s home to establish bachelor
quarters with his old seafaring friend.
Lindbloom told the town hall police he had called at his father-in-law’s
door to ask him to watch for a number of Christmas packages. An open win
dow7 indicated that death had been accidental. Johnson was eighty-three
years old and Jacobson was seventy-seven. f

A Washday Health Lesson
for the Housewife
! Ordinarily We like td held up the
Orientals as ^horrible exaiiiples" of
everything that is dld^fashioned, but
in some few things v/§ yet can learn
from our eastern neighbors.
It is our practice to wait tihtil we
become ill before we call the doctor.
The custom of the Asiatic folk is to’
employ a physician to keep them well-^
if a “patient” becomes ill the doctor’s
fees stop forthwith.
The health philosophy of the Orien
tals is precaution.
Why not make this your philosophy
these winter days—at least to the ex
tent of playing safe with the washing?
There is danger to you in washday’s
steaming tubs; in the dampness of cel
lars; in braving rain, snow and sleet
while hanging out the clothes. Why
no'- make yourself safe from these
#K«jnaces of winter washdays by send
ing us your family washing?
We can launder everything for you
—cleanse and sterilize household linen
and personal apparel; give to every
piece, a fragrant cleanliness; iron for
yoU; in a manner that will save your
things, yet give to them a fine dainti
ness of finish.
Oui* way is th6 saving way—it will
save yoU heavy work, save you health,
save you money. Telephone, or drop
us a card, and We will have our driver
call for your family washing.
We treat your clothing white
