BEAUTIFY OUR SEWARD
Trees, shrubs and flowers are just as essential in the
making of a real home and town as are homes, furniture
and all else that goes into the household. Living plants
growing about the home and public places not only in
crease the value of the property, but make conditions
more pleasant and more healthful. There is nothing that
impresses the visitor or stranger to our Alaskan towns
more favorably than clean and well-kept streets—Seward
has them—free from weeds and rubbish, and attractive
well-kept lawns and gardens.
Now is the time of the season to turn your plot of
ground, be it large or small, into a little landscape jewel.
It will be a real asset to Seward and a source of satisfac
tion to yourself.
OPINIONS SHOULD DIFFER
It is characteristic of most persons who have decided
opinions on any subject that they should try to bring
everyone else to their way of thinking.
In cases where the issue is a clear cut one, involving
right.and wrong, it may be that an uncompromising atti
tude is justified. But who shall say just what is right and
what is wrong? Ideas concerning right and wrong change
with the times.
Not so many years ago some of the most cultured and
enlightened people of this country believed that human
slavery was legitimate and proper. George Washington
was one of them at least he was a large slave-owner as
long as he lived. We think it wrong today.
The Puritans thought it wrong for a man to kiss his
wife on Sunday, and they passed a law prohibiting him
from doing so. We think it all right today.
If everyone had agreed with such old ideas and no
one had ever mustered up the courage to combat them,
we should have made little progress. We would still be
burning witches.
What is needed in the world is not that we should all
think alike, but that we should have a greater feeling of
tolerance and respect for the opinions of others, when
honestly held, no matter how much they may differ from
our own.
The average normal person ois really seeking for the
truth—-but the truth is often elusive, and each must find
it in his own way.
OBSERVE AMERICAN FOREST WEEK
Human carelessness continues to be the chief cause
of all forest fires. The number of man-caused fires in
1923 ran as high as 90 per cent of the total in certain sec
tions of the country and is approximately 80 per cent for
the country as a whole.

BACK BAD TODAY?
Then Find the Cause and Correct It
As Other Folks Have
There’s little rest or peace for the
backache sufferer.
Days are tired and weary-~
Night brings no respite.
Urinary troubles, headaches, dizzi
ness and nervousness, all tend to pre
vent rest or sleep.
Why continue to be so miserable?
Why not use a stimulant diuretic to
the kidneys?
Use Doan’s Pills.
Thousands recommend Doan’s.
Read this interesting case:
C. W. Badby, contractor and build
er, 203 Seventeenth St., Oregon, City,
Ore., says: “My kidneys troubled
me and often I had a weak and ach
ing back, which made it hard for
me to stoop. My kidneys didn’t act
right, but Doan’s Pills soon fixed me
up in good shape by strengthening
my back and kidneys.”
Price GOc, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr. Bag
