A Priceless Organ.

A priceless organ is the eye. and yet some people are neglectful of it. More precious than gold Is the window of the soul (thc eyc). Its delicacy and finished perfection are beyond description. Yet, notwithstanding that fact, the eye is -ub jected 10 more nse and abuse than is any other organ of the body. for it is at rest only when closed in sleep. If your vision is impa red it is we'll for you to bear in mind that d suitable pair of glasses will not only lead you from darkness to light, but will in great many cases effect an entire cure of your eye trouble. But, on the other hand. glasses selected by yourself or fitted to your eyes by one to whom the science of optics is sealed book will m time prove an irreparable injury to your eyes. Ed Friedman, graduated optician. has the latest appliances for testing the eyes. Besides, he carries the best selection of glasses in Nome. Office at the I9luo.

Strides Made in the Past
 Seven Months.
LEADS ALL OTHERS
The "Nugget Guarantees a Cir culatiOn Double That of All Other Newspapers Published in This Sec tiOn It's Enterprise Appreciated.

It is only right that the advertising patrons of the NUGGET should know the strides in circulation that has been made by the paper. Seven months ago. when the NUGGET became the property of the present proprietor. it was badly run down at the heel. but, aS the aim Of the new management was to give the people of this section a live, independent and reliable newspaper, tts circulation began to increase by leaps and bounds. This has been brought about by fair dealing with the public. The NUGGET has. as far as it has been able to do so, striven to pub fish reliable information concerning this section of Alaska and reliable news generally. It has been the aim to conduct newspaper in the broadeSt sense of the term, and to avoid small personalities. Buffoonery has never found place in its columns.
 The NUGGET $ management may say, without any boastine whatsoever. that 1t has always stood for what it consid- cred to be right and that whichis best for the interests of its constituency, and by this very course it's circulation now extends all over Northwestern Alaska.
 Agencies have been recently estab- Gshed at Council City, Bluff City, Chink and Norton bay. The NUGGET will be found in every road house east and west of Nome, thus ensuring ad- vertisers the benefit of a circulation DOUBLE THE COMBINED CIRCULATION of all other newspapers published in Northwestern Alaska. F. T. Ches- nut, the NUGGETS travelling repre- sentative, recently returned from a trip down the coast as briefly men, eioned in the last issue of this paper. As result of his trip lS3 subscriptions were addedto the NUGGETS subscrip- tion books. During the last week, In Nome. 9 new subscriptions were : also added to the list of city subscrib- CTS. These are facts which the NUGGET will be glad to verify at any time, and , they are worth remembering by its readers and patrons. The NUGGET is the ouly paper-of general circulation in Northwestern Alaska.
 AS in the past the NUGGET will con- tinue to publish the news, all the news and reliable news, and it's pol : icy will be as it has ever been to do all that it can along legitimate lines to z further the best interests of this entire section,
