years of age and continue her educa-

cation for women, and she spent some
time as his assistant in the Saxton

Crops in Nebraska.

There is broad smile on the face of near
ly every farmer in Nebraska, because of the
satisfactory crop conditions in that remark
able state. In the Northwest, drouth has
seriously injured the wheat yield. In the
South again there has been more or less dam
age, but in Nebraska they have had season.
A full crop of oats and wheat will, from
present indications, be followed by a
bumper crop of corn. During the past week
heavy rains all over the state have put this
crop in fine condition, and it may break the
record.

HAIR BRUSH AND COMB.
Their Neglected Condition II Said to !.
he ResponsibIe for Many Cases
OF Scalp Trouble.

'The thing I'd like to impress upon
clean hair brushes" ays a scalp spe-
cialist. "The condition of the average
hair brush is simply disgraceful and
makes a perfect mass of infection.
The brush should be washed every
week, and washing isn't enough. 1t
should be thoroughly sterilized at
least twice month. All hair does
not need much brushing, and the kind
of brush required depends upon the
peculiarities of the scalp. "A stitf brush
is necessary for some heads and fatal
to others, and ones brush should
really be prescribed by competent
specialist. Then, the comb should be
a dinerent thing from the ordinary af-
fair 1t should be coarse. fine
comb is all wrong. The teeth should
round both on the sides and the ends,
so that it will glide smoothly through
the hair, and there shouldn't be any
corners between the teeth.
"Women keep their hair better than
men. In the first place there's more
of it and Their scalps are better pro-
tected, but they wear their hats sc
much less than men, and the hats
when they are worn, do not fit the
head so tightly and create such heat
and moisture, generating poison, as
the mans hat does. A leather hat
band should be changed frequently
1t gets dirty, and decomposition OF
leather is wonderful microbe pro
moter."-Cincinnat Tribune.

How to Fight Red Mites.

The red mites are difficult to destroy,
but it can be done. If they are in the
nests of the sitting hens the nests must
be burned, and probably the new nests
wip have to share. the same fate, as a
few nits and lice may remain on the
hens. Sitting hens are quickly killed
when left to the mercy of these mites.
The roosts should be so constructed
that the lice will take refuge in grooves
on the under side, after which the
roosts may be temporarily removed,
the grooves saturated with oil and the
insects destroyed by fire. This will
have to be repeated for some time to
make the work complete.-FarmerS

We call the attention Of our readers to
the advertisement of st. Mary's Academy

scholastic advantages of st. Mar;'s for the
catalogue of the school shows ;ne scope of
work included in its curriculum, which is
of the same high standard as that of Nassar
and Bryn Mawr, and is carried out faith
fully in the class rooms. We simply empha-
size the spirit of earnest devotion which
makes every teacher at st. Marys loyalty
strive to develop each young girl attendant
there into the truest, noblest, and most in.
telligent womanhood. Every advantage Of
equipment in the class rooms, laboratories
and study rooms, every care in the matter of
food and clothing, and exceptional excel

lures are found at st. Mary's, in the perfec'
tion Of development only to be obtained by
the conservation of devoted lives to eduea'
tional Christian work, in a spot favored by

NOW FOR A SHELTER
Sale of White Horss Copper Claims
 Corroborated.

Binde Bowker, manager of the British American Corporation, to the Rothschilds for s2.0oO,0Oo. The Van couver owners are iubilant.
 Reported sales of this property have been heard here before. but not from such financial press source, such as the Empire. The reports heard here previously were also to the effect that the Rothschilds were the buyers.
 It Is generally believed here that with the development of and the prov> ing that the White Horse properties are of actual merit, Skagway will be- come an important smelting or mineral shipping port.
 Encouraging reports have been re- ceived lately from the White Horse dis trict of the development work being done this winter.

QUICK TRIP FROM NOME
Arrangements Between the Ameri-
 can and the Canadian Govern
 msuts As to the Mall Carrying in the Interior and for Upper Yukon.

The letter from Nome written bv Wal tsr Chureh, some portions of which were published in the DAILY ALASKAN veSter- tay, came bv the American mail carriers all the way from Nome. Under the new sovrmment contract the first mail from St. MichaelS was by way ot Dawson. Co start February IS. and this mail was evidently connected with by the people at Nome
 Not onlv that. but the mall carriers mus, have made an exceedingly quick trip. The records are not at hand, but the elapsed time from Nome. the last date on the letters mailed there being January 9th, would make the total elapsed time bet ween Nome and SkSgwlv only SiNty-SiN iayS And it must be remembered that these letters dated January 6th might have waited several days at $. MithaelS for the mail ,o set out from there, and tha, ,h.re may have been delayS a, other points in order 10 make connections.
 Al any rate it shows ,ha, the trails are in fine condition, and that the long jour nev IS in no wise as terrible or as tedious as people have been led to suppose.
 Another point to be remembered Is that this mail was first carried from Nome to Sl. Michlels, and that the newly diSeov- cred cut-offS which save so many miles were therefore not taken advantage oi.
 This mai. on arrival dt Dawson, found Una, the Canadian mail would no, start until a day later, SO it came straight through to Skagway and brought no Daw son mail. The latter was expected on las, evenings train.
 lt IS no, generally understood that both the American and the Canadian govem> men,S have mail carriers to Dawson. lt is believed ihl, when a letter mailed here reaches the boundary it IS then carried to Dawson bv the Canadian carriers and from there on by United States carriers. But this Is no, the arrangement. Both governments have contract mail carriers, and the arrangement between the two gov- ernments is that the hrst in takes the ac- cumulatei mail. This gives a service be- tween here and Dawsou Of seven trips per month.
 The number Cf letters brought in bv the mail from Nome was about hftv packages, which would average about twenty letters eaeh. Hos many there were in these foc Skagwav could not be learned.
