"Ycs, SIS WORTH" answered Mrs.
FELTON, in her most severe tone, think
ing: "He knows I've got good tip
and don't want to SELL"
The grain man asked no more ques-
tons, but took Mrs. Felton's address
and promised to have the order de-
livercd that afternoon.
At o'clock a great grain wagon
came. 1t groaned under its load.
"Whcre's the barn, NUM-" asked
the driver.
There's no barn. You're to bring
it right in here" said Mrs. FELTON,
calmly.

"But-" began the man again.

When George FELTON, got home that
evening dust met his nostrils and he
noticed q flush of excitement on his
wife's cheeks. The dust brought back
to him his days on the farm.
whats up?" he asked, shifting the
air, after kissing his wife.
Mrs. FELTON, led him to the rear of
the six-room fiat. Great gray, dusty
bags we're piled along the hall.
Others were lined up along the side of
dining-room. The flour bin in the
pantry was bursting. There were two
great bags under the sink. AS many
more were slowed away under the
kitchen table. A pile frowned in
from the back porch.
"What the deuce is this?" gasped
the astonished husband, surveying tho
scene.
"I've bought wheat" said Mrs. Fell
ton, bravely. Bought it at IS. It's
travelling toward a dollar like a race
horse. There's fortunes in wheat.
Can't lose. There'll be dollar wheat,
1 say" And Mrs. FELTON, tried to
draw herself up as J. Mortimer Bill
ings had done.
Mr.. FELTON, sat down on a bag OF
wheat and wept.

Similarly, the prevalence of irregular
periods among young women, and the
commences of facilitating drains
among married women have created
the mischievous idea that these are the
natural conditions of womanhood.
In normal health the periods should
be regular and painless and there should
be neither drains nor pains for the mar

% cents. Through the single street
OF the town all day (there is no night
there) tramp thousands of cadaverous,
unkempt and unshaved men, repre-
senting nearly all the nations of the
globe, with the fierce lust of gold glar-
ing from their bloodshot eyes.
1t is a commonplace occurrence to
see drunken women reeling through
the streets, uttering unmentionabie
obscenities and even lying stretched
out at full length on the board side
walks, surrounded by crowds of jeer-
ing boys and men. 1t is queer as.

fiends, preachers, college girls, broken
millionaires, hoboes, stewbums," In
dians and squaws, soldiers and sailors
all jostling each other in the mad
rush for the gold that cannot be
found. Owing to the GOODNESS of the
ocean water, but little bathing or
washing is done, and vermin abound
on every side.
The deadly typhoid fever already
claims its victims, while smallpox is
steadily gaining on the poor dupes of
the Seattle papers and the Transports
ton companies. Along the beach for
miles can be seen huge placards,
affixed to pumping plants, tents, rock
ers and every variety of mining ma
chinery, reading: "For sale, at your
own price,"
Suicides are common and cause but
little comment. Hundreds of stow.
Always and buns who landed without
a cent now prowl around stealing pro-
visions.
Work has nearly all stopped, and to
busting activity has succeeded an
apathetic despair. 1t is a pitiful
sight to see small children and
young girls fresh from country homes
in this seething Gomorrah OF the far
Arctic.

I saw in Nome, where the deceased
q woman who had blown out her
brains-was placed in q rough pine
box and borne on two long handled
shovels, carried by four jack booted
miners through the long street of the
town to Boot HILL" where the coffin
was lowered into the black water that
fills every hole dug few feet in the
marshy tundra. Poor girl! What a
CHASTITY ending to her golden dreams

A HE'LL ON EARTH.

This is what visitor to Cape Nome
wrote the Tacoma News regarding his
observation of that delectable spot:
have just arrived from that hell
on earth, Cape Nome, Alaska. In
looking over the Seattle papers was
astonished to read tho mendacious
statements with which those papers
endeavor to palliate the horrible con-
dition OF the thousands of unfortunate,
penniless and almost starving wretches
whom their devilish falsehoods lured
in swarms to the bleak and utterly
worthless shores of the Arctic.
The Seattle Times issue of the Goth
last, contains an article of this nature.
I will say in preface that nearly the
entire article is a tissue of barefaced
falsehoods, as 1 know from personal
observation, having left Nome July
IL. The paltry $4,000 in gold from
Anvil and Dexter creeks is made the
most of, although this represents the
entire output of mining camp of 25,-
600 people this season.
Instead Of 1900 men on the beach
who are doing well'' there are 5000
who are making so cents a day and
thousand more who subsist mainly
on smelts-a small fish thrown up on
the beach by the tide. These are
cooked whole and eaten, entrails,
head and all, by the ravenous wretches
who are moneyless.
The sanitary condition of the town
is something inconceivable. The
filthiest Chinese quarter of San Fran
cisco, is a health resort compared to
it. The tundra back of and higher
than the town reeks with the filth of
the swarming thousands and the
hordes of dogs which abound there.
Through this trickles the drinking
water OF the city below. Enterprising
dealers peddle this "liquid damnation"

FIXING THE TIME OF OPENING
Quotations From the Law
Setting Forth the Time
For Opening K1oWa
Reservation.

We are often asked when will
The Kiowa and Comanche reser-
gation open. In answer to this
gc do no more than quote from
the law passed by the last con
gress and approved by the Presi-
dent June 6, 1900. That law
says:
That all allotments Of said land
shall be made under the direction
of The Secretary Of the Interior to
said Indians within ninety days
rom the passage Of this Act, sub
ject TO the exceptions contained
ia article fuor of said treaty; pro-
Yided, That the time for making
allctments shall in no event be
extended beyond SIX months from
passage OF this Act.
Another question that is often
asked Us: Will townsites be
established and surveyed when
the land is opened for settle
ments. In answer to this we
again quote the law.
"When said allotments OF land
shall have been selected and taxi
en- as.aforesaid and approved by
the Secretary of the Interior, the
titles thereto shall be held in
trust for the allottees, respective.
