The announcement Of the res
ignatiOn Of John @. Brady, as
governor Of Alaska, reminds me
Of the possibilities OF the Ameri-
can boy" said an observant man.
"Brady's parents, who resided il
New York, died when he was a
child, and be became a practical
vail. He was given into the keep
ing of the Cbildren's Aid Society
OF New York city. At the age
Of ten years he was sent to Judge
John Green, Of Liptcn, Ind, who
finding him a bright boy adopted
him and seht him to school. Sub
sequentIy he worked his way
through Yale and the Union The
illogical seminary, having deter
mined to become a minister.
Alter his graduation he started
out to establish an industrial re-
form colony for boys from the
slums Of New York, 10 atiug the
same in Texas. The project failed
for lack of financial support.
Then Brady went to Alaska as
missionary with DR.. Sheldon Jack
son. Later he became manager
OF the Sitka Trading Company.
On June rs, 1897, he was appoint
ed governor OF Alaska territory by
President Mckinley. His admin
istration has been marked with
great progress in the develop
meLt OF Alaska. Governor Brady
was SO successful that in 1900 he
was reappointed governor and in
1904 was again appointed for q
third term"

"The psoriasis first made its appear

the size of silver dollar of sound flesh.
In q short time the affected circle
would form heavy dry scale Of white

drop off. To remove the entire scales
by bathing or using oil to soften them
the flesh would be perfectly raw, and a
light discharge of bloody substance

form again in twenty-four hours. 1t

Whether or not the offer is consd-

NAME Of CITY 0NPOSTAGE
NEXT YEARS STAMPS TO BEAR
NAME OF TOWNS.
WILL DISCOURAGE RoBBERIEs
Innovation Will Also Show up Padding
of Receipts Of Offices by Outside
Sales of Stamps-lssuine Office Will
be Printed on Adhesive.

Washington, d. c., Nov. 2S.-Post-
age stamps of the issue of 1907
on sale at the 5000 presidential post
offices, will bear on their face the name
of the state and city in which the
postoffice is situated.
The chief reason for this innovation
is said, at the postofiice department. to
be the belief that it will help to do
away with the big postofiice robberies
and make it much easier to trace Grim
inals.
The postoffice robbery in Chicago,
a few years ago, is a good example of
the ease with which stolen stamps
can be disposed of, for no trace of the
perpetrators was ever discovered, al
though 100000 worth of stamps we're
stolen, and these mostly of small de-
nominations.
Another reason for the change is to
enable the pOstoffice department to
determine the amount of business done
by the different postoffices and pre-
vent padding, through stamps sold at
some offices to residents who do bust
ness in adjoining cities.
