A book of receipts for all kinds of
cookery, which is specially valuable for
use upon the trail or in the camp, is
published by the Royal Baking Powder
Company, of New York. The receipts
are thoroughly practical, and the meth
dds are carefully explained, so that
the inexperienced may, with its aid,
readily prepare everything requisite
for a good, wholesome meal, or even
dainties if he has the necessary ma
terinls. The matter is in compact
though durable form, the whole book
weighing but two ounces. Under II
special arrangement, this book will be
sent free to miners or others who may
desire it. We would recommend that
every one going to the klondike pro-
cure copy. Address the Royal Baking
Powder Co., New York.

One of the most elegant young women
at Miss Drexel's big Philadelphia ball
wore white organdie over a blue silk
slip that cost only II cents per yard in
the piece.
This dress is of organdie. 1t is white

the foot are plaitings of the organdie.
The waist is plain white organdie, fin

The only relief is narrow belt of

NUMBER Is.
A WORD OF ADVICE
To Those Coming to Alaska or ths
klOndike Gold Fields.

One thing should be impressed upon
every miner, prospector or trader COM
ing to Alaska, to the klondike, or the
Yukon country, and that is the neces-
sity for providing an adequate and
proper food supply. Whether procured
in the States, in the Dominion, or at
the supply stores here or further on,
this must be his primary concern.
Upon the manner in which the miner
has observed or neglected this precau-
lion more than upon any other one
thing will his success or failure depend.
These supplies must be healthful and
should be concentrated, but the most
careful attention in the selection OF
foods that will keep unimpaired in
definitely under all the conditions
which they will have to encounter is
imperative. For instance, as bread
raised with baking powder must be re-
lied upon for the chief part of every
meal, imagine the helpiessness of
miner with can OF spoiled baking
powder. Buy only the very best flour;
it is the cheapest in the end. Expert
ence has shown the Royal Baking Pow
der to be the most reliable and the
trading companies now uniformly sup
ply this brand, as others will not keep
IN this climate. BE sure that the bacon
is sweet, sound and thoroughly cured.
These are the absolute necessities upon
which all must place chief reliance,
and can under no circumstances be
neglected. They may, of course, DO
supplemented by as many comforts or
delicacies as the prospector may be able
to pack or desire to pay for.-AldSkd

CHAPTER V.

When does mana young man
begin to take himself seriously? OBJ
yiously, when he realizes that the in
tegrity of the human rope may depend
upon the soundness of a single strand;
that the smallest bolt in mighty bridge
may not be withdrawn or suffered TO
rust without disastrous consequences;
that he, insignificant mortal, may make
or mar not only his own life, but the
lives of others. These platitudes are
proclaimed hourly from 1000 pulpits;
but the practical application of all
teaching must come from within, not
from without.

The most serviceable article ever
owned by dancing woman is slip of
silk. If she can possess three or four
of these slips her social success, so far

A Chnncu In f5ig Oucpo.

A captain in a regiment stationed at
Natal, when paying his company one
day, CHANGED to give a man Transvaal
half-crown, which as one would natu-
rally expect, "the image and subscrip-
ton" of President Kruger. The man
brought it back TO the pay table and
said to the captain: please, sir, you've
given me bad half crown" The Off
Ger took the coin, and, without look
ing at it, rung it on the table, and then
remarked: at sounds all right, Bag
ster. What's wrong with it?' "You
luke at it, sir" was the reply. The cap
tain glanced at the coin saying: "lt's
all right, man; it will pass in the can
teen" This apparently satisfied Bag
ster, who walked off, making the re-
mark: "If you say it's a right, sir, it is

Cuba is known to be by nature one
of the richest parts of the earth's sur
face. Before the decline of the sugar
industry in the West Indies many vast
fortunes were extracted from 1t by
agricultural processes that were very
far from being thorough. Even in
the most prosperous days of Cuba
Spanish misgovernment prevented any
real development ofits resources. The
fortunes that were realized were won
by merely scratching the surface.
Every official was Spaniard, and no
official, from the Captain General
down, had any other object than to
acquire for himself the largest fortune
In the shortest time and to take it
back with HIM to the peninsula.

" Who is jerks 2"

The Democratic candidate fol
Governor is one of the purest and
ablest men who have had to dc
with the public life of this Com.
monwealth. That should be enough
to satisfy the voters of the State.
Character and ability of the first
class are sadly needed in the execu-
tive office.
But Mr.. jerks is of good blood
and breeding. He halls from West
ern Pennsylvania but Eastern
Pennsylvania also has a claim upon
him. His forefathers were among
the early arrivals in the colony Of
Penn. Thomas jerks, the progen-
itor of the jerks family in Amer
lea, settled in the neighborhood of
this city, and married Mercy Wild
man. The issue of this marriage
was three sons and three daugh-
tiers. The Oldest son, John J.,
married Sarah Weir. Their only
son, named John Wildman jerks,
married Mary Dey Barclay. Their
son, John Wildman jerks, moved
to Jefferson county, and raised a
family of eight sons and two daugh-
tiers. The youngest son was named
George Augustus jerks. He is
the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor.
The sticklers for blood will find
the Jenkses all right. In General
Davis history of Bucks county will
be found very interesting account
of the ancestry of the original
Thomas jerks for those who care
to go back so far into the roots of
mans personality.
Allusion is only made to the
jerks ancestry by the Record to
meet the carping of the whipsters
of the Republican press, who insist
upon asking "who is jerks ?" and
who evidently do not know the style
or quality of the man whom the
Democratic party has presented for
the first office in the State. The
true measure of manhood is found
in what the individual has been
able to accomplish for himself.
Tried by that rule, George A.
jerks stands forth the peer of the
best. He needs no eulogirm at the |
hands of any man.-PAila. Record.

BISMARCK PASSES AWAY.

Prince Bismarck died at his castle
at Friedrichsrue about II o'clock
Saturday night. The death of the
Ex-Chancellor was a surprise to all
Europe. Despite the family's de-
mails, there was an undercurrent of
apprehension when the sinking of
the Prince was finally announced,
inspired more by what the family
left unsaid than any information
given. But when the daily bulle-
tins chronicled improvement in the
Princes condition, detailed his ex-
tensive bills of fare and told of his
devotion to his pipe, the public ac-
cepted DR.. Schweninger's assertion
when he said there was no reason
why Bismarck should not reach the
age of ninety years.
The reports were deemed to be a
repetition of the alarm that Prince
Bismarck was in extremis, which
had been oft repeated in the past.
All the Saturday papers in Europe
dismissed Bismarck with a para
graph, noting the Improvement,
while his condition was completely
overshadowed in the English pa
pers by the condition of the Prince
of Wales knee.
1t appears that the -Chancel-
lor's death was not precipitated by
sudden complications, but was
rather the elimination of chronic
disease-neuralgia of the face and
inflammation of the veins-which
kept him in constant pain that was
borne with the iron fortitude which
might have been expected.
Prince Bismarck was born at
Schoenhauser, April I, 1915. The
early years of the boy were spent
on his fathers estate, Kniephof, in
Pomerania, a dismal, dark and Sc
cluded farm, where his father hunted
and talked politics with his neigh,
bors. At E the lad was sent to a
boarding school in Berlin, and at
IL he was transferred to the Grey
Friars Gymnasium, or High School.
He graduated from the latter place
with distinguished excellence, and
at the age of II he entered the
Hanoverean College of Goettinger.
"The last words Prince Bismarck
uttered were addressed to his daugh.
ter, Countess Won Rantzau, who
wiped the perspiratiou from his
forehead. They were: Thanks,
my child
! "The whole family were assem-.
bled at the bedside at the time Of
, his death, and DR.. Schweninger,
DIR. Chrysander and Baron and
BARONESS Merck were also present.
AS no breathing movement or pulse
was perceptible for three minutes,
DR.. Schweninger declared quietly
and simply that the Prince was
dead"

Strictly claims, would be a crime
that is punishable with fine and inn
prisonment.
