Owing to over-crowding and bad
ventilation, the air Of the schoolroom

and pupils frequently suffer from lung

lungs and bronchial troubles no other
remedy can compare with 1t. Says A.

The Idaho And Alaska Co.

The Idaho and Alaska Gold Mining
Company recently incorporated in
this town, it seems to us, is an organ
ization promising much good. The
incorporators are all business men Of
high standing and unqustioned integ
rity. They have ability and capital to
carry out their project on large and
profitable scale. Their connections
and representatives in the Klondyke
country enable them to discover and
take advantage OF opportunities OF
which the individual with but limited
means could never avail himself. 1t
seems to us that il this enterprise be
conducted honestly, and we certainly
think it will be, it presents an oppor.

anything that could be reasonably ex.
pected by going to Alaska in person
and attempting to engage in the
actual work OF mining. As more ex'
tensive and accurate information is
gained, the hardships connected with
mining, or even living, IN Alaska be-
comes more apparent, and some Of tn,
most fortunate declare that year O.

is sacrifice for which scarcely an,
fortune can compensate. A man whC
recently returned from there, wfitin

ROBERTS NEW BUILDING.
Creditable Addition to the Business

Creditable Addition to the Business
Blocks in the Village.
George A. Roberts new building in
Milford, is, says the Milford Citizen,
about completed and is creditable
addition to the business blocks Of the
village. In appearance 1t Is perhaps
the finest building in Milford, and in
interior arrangements ii is also first
class. On the first floor are two stores,
Is feet by IA feet, lighted with large
plate glass windows The second floor
Is finished as a hall, giving a room 80
feet by 40 feet square by Ia feet high.
Connecting with this is an entry way,
ante-room and kitchen
1t is probable that when the building
was begun many considered Mr. Rob-
erts' enterprise a trifie risky, to say
the least. But before the work Of con-
struction had proceeded very far AIR
Roberts was besieged with applicants
desiring to rent the stores F. NJ

Milford Wheel club, and with new fur
niture, etc, this fourishing organiza-
ton will have the most commodious
headquarters in the village. Mr.. Rob-
erts is well known and has many
friends in New Haven.

pleasant the thought of those of our

sity of retiring from public service,
decided to keep the anniversary as
long as the members were able to join
each other on the evening of January
18th. I hope all who can possibly do
so will continue the gathering, even
beyond the "fiftieth," if nothing more
than "Reminiscences of early years are
talked over and the toast to the sur

Dear Comrade-Circular received
Too busy this year to do more than
send hearty greetings to the brethren
of the l.. S. o. who may be so fortunate
as to personally join in another re-
union at the old stand. To the nomads
who cannot be present in person, the
sympathies of the assembled brother
hood will be due, and at the signal mo-
ment of remembrance our thanks and
gratitude will be telepathically return
ed; each loved visage will be recalled
from memory's reserves; each veneer
able joke of our humorists again re-
turned to duty; every new sally of the
old stagers will be anticipated to soft
en- in measure the deep regret of our
enforced absence. All hail! to the nine
o'clock bell, which signals the heart-to-
heart beat of every l.. S. o. 1t is then
we hold the glass and grasp the endless
string-~the string
Oh, the String!
Wen pull the String for all it's worth,
Rattle the Latch of memory's door,
Recall the days that gave it birth,
The joyous years, now forty-four,
Since the callow boys of 'tifty-three
unclaimed each one for eternity.
Au revoir,

listen to their merry jests and to hear
letters read from the absent ones tell
ing of of their fortunes and misfor-
tunes of the last year All of these are
like milestones, which if they sadden as
they remind us that another year has
gone into the eternity of the past, they
will also gladden. as they remind us
that we are that much nearer the goal
the eternity of the future, where, if
we are true to the principles of the L.
S. o., we will meet our brothers of the
L. S. o. and all other of loved ones that
have fallen by the wayside while we
have journeyed on. Now I close by
wishing all the brothers a happy New
Year and l pray the good Father of us
all that he may watch over us all indi-
vidually and as a society, that the good
work that We. have done may continue
while there are enough of the L. S. o.
to hold a meeting. Again regretting
that I may not be with you and pray
ing for abundant success for you indi-
vidually and to the Brotherhood,

ity and happiness during the remaining

I believe that the organization of the

suited in much good to it's members in
the years that are past, even more thar

Mn. Chairman and Brothers of the l..
S. O.:
How gladly wouldI be with you in
person to celebrate once more the mem
orable 18th. Great distance and bust
ness engagements will prevent me from
enjoying that great pleasure. Howev-
er, can assure you, Brethren, that
though absent in body, l shall be pres
ent in spirit, In Love and good wishes.
How naturally at this season of the
year our mind reverts to the past, how
we think and love to think of the days
and friends of our youth. There is no
part of my life that I look back upon
with feelings of greater pleasure than
the good times spent with old Croton
No. l. What wonderful changes have
taken place since then in the depart
ment in which we were especially in
terested. No more dashing wildly
down the streets hauling on the ropes,
holding on the neap or running ahead,
waving the trumpet and encouraging
the boys with shouts of Jumper her,
boys" 20, jump her. Don't you see
i NO Accounting mo more
the brakes with our good Jarman on
deck shouting. Break her down, boys!
Q, break her down." How we look
forward with bright hopes to the flu
ture, how we built castles in the air,
and how few of these hopes have been
realized.
/ sometimes wonder If many of the
boys have passed through as many and
varied experiences as I have: how
changes / have passed through; that at
the end of nearly fifty years would be
away out in this great western coun-
try, one of the pioneers of this wonder
full part of our great continent, q eotr-
try that was then almost unknown
and when known was thought of only
as a home for the buffalo and wild In
diam, just think of twenty-five years
ago 1t was still unknown except as a
trading post for furs, and to-day it Is
settled by thousands of prosperous and
happy people, with beautiful cities and
towns, and yet it is only beginning to
be known; in fact, who can tell the flu
ture of this wonderful western world
and what are its great possibilities
with it's vast fertile prairies, probably
the most fertile in the world, it's vast
and as yet almost unexplored mineral
wealth, but I must stop as don't wish
to tire you out.
Brethren, let me once more wish you
great happiness and prosperity in the
future. and may we all live to meet
once more on our fiftieth anniversary.
If / live till then I hope to be with
you, and / might say that / do hope
and expect to live till then. My dear
