Three Sentiments.

Prince Bismarck was once asked by
Count Enzenberg, formerly Hesslan
envoy at Paris, to write something in
his album. The page on which he had
to write contained the autographs OF
Guizot and Theirs. The former had
written: Il have learned in my long
life two rules of prudence. The first IS
to forgive much; the second is never 10

"A little forgetting would not detract

to be forgiven much"

A BATHROOM IN JAPAN.

Tiny In Space. With a Round Tub
and Simple Fittings.
This bathroom in Japan was q tiny
space by feet, says writer In the
Craftsman. In it were four objects, a
stool to sit upon when washing oneself
before getting into the bath, shining
brass wash basin, wooden pail and
dinner in which to fetch the bath wa
ter and the tub. The tub, like most
private baths, was round, casket snap
ed and made of white wood. 1t was
perhaps thirty inches in diameter ana
twenty-seven inches high. A copper
funnel or tube passing through the bot
tom went up inside close to the edge.
This. filled with lighted charcoal, SUP
piled heat for the water. The pipe was
higher than the tub, so the water
could not leak inside. A few trans
verse bars of wood fitted into grooves
and formed a protection so the bather
could kneel in the tub without coming
i'm contact with the hot pipe. The walls
of the room were of white wood, with
a pretty grain; the floor OF pine, lald
with a slight slope and grooved so the
water might flow into a gutter ans!

Colors That Cure Consumption.

The value of light as an agent in
curing diseases is becoming increasing
" recognized, says the Chicago Jour-
nal. The latest development Of the
idea is the assertion of a medical man
that the clothes worn by consumptives
should be of color which will allow
the light to penetrate the body. White
materials, it is found, are the best for
this purpose. and consumptives are con-
sequently advised to clothe themselves
In snowy raiment, either Of linen, vel
vet, cotton or cloth. SILK, however, IL
barred.

Not q Final Settlement

The person who settles matter and
settles it wrong is in the position Of
man who has got rid of the skunk I'M
der his porch by driving the innocent
little animal under the barn. Then
every wandering boy who knows the
facts comes along and works for hours
with a pole trying to goad the animal.
Whether he succeeds or not, the at
tempt is ruinous to the brand Of at
mosphere used in the neighborhood.-

A LUCKY CHOICE.
How Famous English AuthOress

How Famous English Authoress
Won Fortune In a Lottery.
Mary Russell Milford, the English
authoress, when child won a fortune
IN a lottery. Her works comprise
poems, dramas. tales and descriptive
sketches. She wrote three tragedies
Julian" ''The Vespers Of Palermo"
and "RienZi." The last named had a
notable run ON the stage. But it is her
tales and sketches. thrown off appar-
emily with little effort, but full of grace
and charm, that have given her lasting
fame. The story of the lottery is quite
romantic. The family were in sore
straits and had come up to dingy lodg-
ings in London. One day-her tenth
birthday, as it happened-MissM Milford
and her father were walking about
London when he took her into an office
where an Irish lottery was soon to be
drawn. Pointing to some bits of print
ed paper (whose significance she had no
idea of that lay upon the counter, he
asked her to choose the number she
liked best as birthday present. She
selected No. 2.224. Not being a whole
ticket, another number was suggested,
but she firmly stuck to her first choice
pointing out that the figures cast up
to ten, the number Of her years. The
Office being able to complete the ticket,
the whole of it was purchased. Time
passed on, and one Sunday morning
while preparing for church the clerk of
the lottery office appeared to tell them
that an express had just arrived from
Dublin announcing that No. 1924 had
drawn prize of f2O.OOO.-London Mail.

He said there should be some place

Mr. Halstead's will, which had been
in existence several years prior to his
death. was destroyed and never offered
for probate. AS both witnesses to the
document are now dead, Surrogate
Church found that there was not suffi-
cient evidence of its execution and re-
fused to admit it to probate.

wAsHINGToN's BIRTHDAY

The l74vh birthday anniversary Of Washington is being celebrated today throughout the United States and wherever in the world there are Amer jeans or those who love liberty, truth and justice. To Americans this day, next to the Fourth of July, stands for those principles which make their country dear. This, added to the' rev erence for a great and good man, who was so devoted to the right of people to self government that be staked the largest fortune that had been accumu' lated upon the American continent in his time and his life upon the result of the war for their maintenance, makes the day a very precious one. It is particularly significant in Alaska, where the people are coutending for those things for which Washington fought.

Because the Daily Alaskan has refer red to the Juneau tories occasionally i, must not be understood that tories are ia the majority in that city. They are not. Juneau, like all the other cities in Alaska, is American and it's people believe in self-government. The only fault with the majority of the people down there is that they permit those who are monarchists and who are opposed to anything that does not orig mate with themselves and in which Ju- neau has no specific advantages tc the exclusion of other sections of the dis trict, to occupy too many of the front seats. The cause of home rule in Alas ka would not suffer if the question Of territorial government were left to vote of the people of Juneau.

HOW OUTSIDE PEOPLE VIEW IT

Not long ago 8 Seattle paper devoted & column editorial to 8 roast of the Daily Alaskan and it's editor. Its com plaint was that this paper is opposed to the government of Alaska from Se' at,le. It accused the Daily Alaskan Of having a gru lge against Seattle, be- cause it insists that real Alaskans- those who actually live in the district should have the direction of Alaskan affairs.
 Itmay seem strange, but it is true, that rot one word has been said by an outsider because 8 certain tory organ insist, upon calling those, who favor self government, Seattle boosters. How ever, there is clean.cut reason for it The exploiters and self-appointed rep rsssptatives of Alaska, who spend theiI time in other sections of the country, trading on their claimed citizenship in the north, understand that the tories who are opposing seli-government are playing into their hands. If the seat of law-makiug and government for Alaska were removed from Washington to Skagway, Juneau. Ketchikan, Sitka, Valdez, Seward, Fairbanks or Nome, their graft would be shut of. They would wither and decay if the actual residents of Alaska were permitted to control their country,
