Journalism In Alaska,

This Office extends its most sincere
thanks to Mr.. and Mrs. d. W. Harvey
for large jar of Alaska bog apple
preserves. gathered and put up by
them at Tyonic last year. Mrs. DR.. A.
E. Burns also remembered the Gate
way family with a generous supply of
salmon, while others, whose names
cannot be recalled. have added a gen
erous quantity of native products in
appreciation and as proof that the
finest and best is here and only re-
quires going after. Thus the pathway
of life is smoothed. and even a news
paper man can realize that there Is
some joy in living. especially in a
country teeming with natural luxuries
and cessities-Seward Gateway.

Fallacies About the Moon.

The moon is the most powerful
agent in producing the tides on the
earth; it also produces some slight
variations in the earths magnetism.
says St. Nicholas. So far as science
has been able to investigate there is
absolutely no change In the weather
although half or more OF mankind
seem to believe that the moon does
have some control over the weather.
All such beliefs, including the time
Tor planting gardens and for going
fishing. are mere superstitions-th
survivals of an age of ignorance.

Was This Origin of "UncIe Sam?"

A curious version of the origin of
Uncle Sam" has been discovered In
an old almanac published in Lesang.
ton. KY, in 1914. The phrase is ex.
planned in the following words:
Uncle Sam is cant phrase signifl.
cant of the United States, as John
Bull is significant of England. The
origin of it seems to be this: In the
year 1907 there was authorized by
law the raising of a regiment of light
dragons. When the company first
appeared their caps bore the letters
U. S. l.. D., signifying the United
States Light Dragons. A country

BUTTERFLIES BRED TO ORDER

Butterflies make an admirable gar.

landscape gardener. they are being

are bred.
You have heard. of course, of pea.
cock farms. Their crops are pea
cocks, and the birds are sold to rich
men to decorate their lawns with.
Well. butterfly farm is one where
the crops are butterflies. Such .
farm has been set up in California,
and it is doing we'll
The farm was started on a capi.
tai of $500. A glass house was put
up and 5000 caterpillars were bought.
The caterpillars in due time became
butterflies. The butterflies were sold
at a fair profit to a number of rnil-
lionaires.
I'm certain millionaires' gardens It
was possible to see during the sum-
mer big tiocks of butterfiies-some
white, some blue and some iridescent
These were part of the crop OF the
butterfly farm.

idea from London. There for some
years they have bred all the butter

Eariy Presidents Home.

Pearson, an Englishman, dined with
John Adams. second President of the

four years old. The Sunday dinner
was as follows: First course. pud-

butter; second. veal, bacon, neck of
mutton, potatoes. cabbages, carrots
and Indian beans. Madeira wine, Of
which each drank two glasses. We sat
down to dinner at O'Clock; at nearly

THE POWER OF ITERATION.
Anything viii Be Believed If Repe At
ed Often ENOUGH.

There is nothing more extraordinary
than the effect produced by reiters ton
upon the public mind Almost any
nonsense makes an impression IL only
it is repeated often enough in print.
The fortunes made by soaps, hair
washes. patent medicines, patent aids
to cookery. ETC.. are witnesses 20 this
curious fact
There is form of self-adyertIse,
ment which proves even more point,
edly than commercial advertisement
the wonderful potency of assertion. It
is something far subtler than what we
have been discussing, and appeals to
smaller and more select public. In
this case the deception goes further.
out it is necessary to obtain the full
effect that person who makes the
assertion should himself believe in its
truth. The power to deceive with
which the self-deceived are often en-,
dowed is remarkable.
By countless assertions a stupid
man can convince himself This Is
why unreceptive people become SO
rig-headed and prejudiced as they get
older.-The Spectator.

Little Nourlshment in Beer,

If there is any one who Is judge OF

would take 1870 gallons of Bavarian
beer-which is a great deal better
than any beer we get here In America,
by the way-to give the body the same
amount of nourishment as does Ave

Bismarck on Liquor Drinkin,

News that beer drinking is steadily
declining in Germany. the average an.
nual consumption per head of the
population having fallen from about
225 quarts to little more than l1O
quarts. would have grieved the iron
chancellor" No one did more than
he to extend and popular.ze beer
drinking throughout the fatherland By
precept and example. He had re.
markable views about water drinking.
In n conversation recorded by Sidney
Whitman he lamented the disappear.
ance of England's three bottle men,
and expressed his fear that the fash.
ion OF drinking water was due not
to a sudden zeal for sobriety, but to
a shrinkage In the daredevil qualitias

WIT ON THE HUSTlNGS
Effective Retort Made by Alexander
Stephens Of Georgia.

Stephens Of Georgia.
Few men possessed more tact and
wit when on the hustings than did
Alexander H. Stephens OF Georgia.
Though small In size, he had won
derfully prolific brain and was re
Sarded as an exceptionally brilliant
orator. A Georgian tells this story:
Mr.. Stephens was slated for a
joint debate with Rance Wright dur
ing presidential campaign. Wright,
by way of tale, said that Stephens
had said he could eat himself
CWrighD for breakfast, Ben Hill for
dinner and Bob Toombs for supper.
MIR. Stephens possessed very little
storage room in his stomach. and
when it came his turn to reply he
said that he denied that he had made
any such assertion. If | had con-
templated any such feast said Mr..
Stephens. L certainly would have TAX

Toombs for dinner and my friend
Rance Wright for supper. My mother

with a little black They use black on

A new stock shows a band Of black

into full summer suit OF the order
known as a shirt waist suit.
They are making up a great many
shirt waist suits OF figured and
sprigged materials. Some OF these are
perfectly delightful in their material
and coloring. Sprigged and lowered
lawns, crisp and glossy. are made up
with the very thin washable silks and
are worn over interlinings OF various
colors. Batistes. partly lace. with a
SILK stripe running through and with a
floral pattern upon the background. are
charming for the making Of whole
suits Of shirt waist design.
The New Summer Blouses.
The best shirt waist suits of this
year will have the long skirt, with
many cores and the round or blouse
waist The back Of the waist will be
tight fitting, but the front will blouse
well over the belt and the blouse part
Will be full. though not baggy
The new blouse waist patterns show
waists that do not blouse TO a point,
but are rather wide in front, with the
blouse part setting out stiff1y, instead
of hanging down over the belt. This
stiffness is preserved by interlinings
and by the material, which is crisp and
holds its own well.
The linen shirt waist suits have the
simulated plaits in front and are but
toned frankly down the front with dec
orative buttons. They are sometimes
laid in tiny tucks across the yoke, with
the tuclzs released below These tucked
yokes will be a great deal worn. They
are easy to make, easy to manage and
easy to wash and iron, which three
recommendation are enough for all
practical purposes.
The new summer sleeves are so wide
as to require half yard more OF goods.
A shirt waist pattern of four yards is
hardly enough now for the full sleeves
that are the vogue and half a yard
more Is needed for the voluminous
sleeves, which are very large, very
baggy and hang down in the most
elaborate manner.
The down-hanging part Of the sleeve
h by no means soft and slinky but is
interlined and is stiffened and is some
times padded to make 1t set out we'll
There is new way to make the
sleeve keep its stiffness below the ell
bow, and this is by the wearing of an
underwaist. The low necked and long
sleeved underwaists are lovely. They
are made very much on the shirt waist
pattern. with blouse front and snug
back Then there are the sleeves OF
underwaists. which are tight above the
elbow but very full below, with a puff
at the wrist. This acts not only as a
lining. but as stiffening for the
gown.
The Lattice Waist.
"A fashion that will be much seen
this summer is the lattice style. Rib
bon and silk are latticed, and also rib
bon and lace. A pretty blouse is made
Of lace. And upon this lace there is
a lattice of ribbon about three inches
square. At each intersection there
hangs a crocheted ball The sleeves
and the skirt are trimmed with the
hanging balls.
