THE NEW OCCIDENTAL

Tony" has another long French
name, but nobody remembers it after
he knows "Tony." This same Tony"
who is the best all round hotel man in
Alaska, including Juneau, has things
going his way at the Occidental Hotel.
And Tony's way is to make you feel at
home when you get to his tavern. He
has a glad hand for everyone, pats you
on the back, inquiries after your wife's
relations, and tells you that you are the
best thing that ever happened. If you
stand in need of a meal, he will usher
you into the dining room with an elab-
crate bow that would make Chester
field blush with envy, call up waiter
and tell him to give you the best in
the house. It's taffy, of course it is;
pure unadulterated tafFy, but you like
it, and its Tony's way. If more people
in this rugged old world would spend
their time pulling taffy, we would feel
a heap better. You can catch more
flies with sugar than you can with
vinegar.
When you go to juneau, stop at the
Occidental and see if it amt good for
the blues.
