From Sandals to Shoes.

The first foot coverings were sand
ais. After these came shoes left open
at the toes. then the wooden shoes
of the ninth and tenth centuries, fol-
lowed little later by shoes with
long pointed, and turned-up toes,
which sometimes reached as high as
the knee. Later a shoe was worn
with an exceedingly wide toe, so very
wide that it impeded the process of
walking. Queen Mary restricted the
wearing of this by proclamations. The
proclamation ran to the effect that
shoes should not be worn wider than
six inches.

For 35 years he took no more exer.

Few people who have not been over

wonderful development of Alaskan in
terests and trade. For instance. the
commercial receipts from the Alaskan

month OF July amounted TO $4,000.

Ink for Fountain Pen..

Do not use ordinary writing ink In
your fountain pen as it will corrode
and render your pen useless unless
cleaned very often. Take an old
typewriter ribbon. turn over 1t a pint
of hot water and let it stand a day or
so, stirring frequently. Turn the ink
thus made into a bottle; cork securely,
and you have an ink which will flow
freely, and not corrode your pen. If
the typewriter ribbon had considerable
ink on it you can thin your ink by
adding more water after the first pint
Is made.

MADE
GOOD ON CLAIMS
SUPREME COURT REJECTED IA
IAUKEA BALLOTS IN FIFTH
PRECINCT.

The developments of the recount pro-
ceedings Last Wednesday afternoon
before the Supreme Court, were some
what startling. The CANVASS of the
votes of the fifth precinct Of the fourth
district gave Brown a gain of II votes
on Iaukea. There were rejected IA
Iaukea votes and Brown votes. Brown
had in the official count received 1853
votes and Iaukea III votes but when
the Supreme court completed its can
vass Brown was credited with 152 votes
votes and Iaukea 15S votes. Brown
thus gained seven actual votes over
Iaukea in the rejected ballots.
There was therefore an excess of
seven ballots over the returns made
by the inspectors. The condition in
dicates either incompetence or care
lessness on their part or else, so the
laukea people claim, that the ballots
were tempered with after they had
been turned into the county clerk
custody A. T. Brock the chairman
of the board of inspectors of that pre-
cicnt testified before the bags was
opened that it seemed to be in the
same condition as when he delivered it
TO the county clerk but Brock said
that he had written his name across
the wax seal on the envelope that had
contained the ballots. He said he did
not see the signature. Chief Justice
Frear carefully examined the seal and
called attention to the fact that the
writing was still across the seal where
upon the envelope was opened. The
accounts of the gain made by Brown
IN that canvas Wednesday vary Gear
says Brown gained - votes which with
the one gained on the previous day,
makes him one behind Iaukea, while
the other side admit that Brown has
gained enough to put him one ahead
Of Iaukea's majority of IA.
