GETS AWAY 10
 TnF CONVENTION

F. A. MarQuam left last evening for Juneau to attend the convention. He carried the proxies of the Skagway and a mum per of others of the nearby del egations. There was some talk of the court adjouruiug to give those interest ed an opportunity to be present but the press of business, and the order from Washington requiring Judge GunniSon to 20 to Valdez 10 there hold a session of court rendered it impossible.
 The sailing of MT. Marquam last evening was made necessary by the fact that no other vessel will touch at Ju- neau from this port previous to Satur day, the day set for the session.

THE FEBRUARY BIRDS.

The bird life of February does not greatly differ from that of January, says St. Nicholas, except in those sunshiny days that often occur at end of the month, when. the rail fences be- ing to steam under the earliest rays of the morning sun, The snow is in patches here and there. From the fields and meadows the meadow, lark's song begins to vfbrate with something of gladness in 1t. The birds are be- ginning to hold reunions in the fence corners, where they sun themselves and play among the raspberry bushes, the golden rod and last years brown grasses. Shell ice covers the brook, and you sink deep in the snow beside it, but the song sparrow is there, skip ping before you among the weed, flit- ting his tail and wings and uttering his lively notes.
 Now and then we observe a flicker on fence post; perhaps we see him fly to the frozen ground to investigate the subject of ants, evidently recollectlng their delicious flavor when taken on an empty stomach. His little black and white cousin, the downy woodpeeker seems more at home in the cold and the snow, as he hammers the trees in the gray woods, with sleepy owls and hardy ruffed grouse for neigbors and f1dge- ty nuthatches and lively chickadees for comrades. ,.
 Most of these permanent resident seem to have rather an unpleasant ex- perience when the deep snows and the freezing days set in for they must rake and scrape to keep from starving. But the ruffed grouse appears to be always at his ease, and he is always at home. He burrows in the snow and never cares Rlow deep 1t is above him, while he sleeps away the night. His feet have grown fringes of little scales, which are long enough and strong enough to bear his weight when the snow comes. When spring arrives does he condescend to remove thes snow shoes. Not bit of It. He calmly waits for nature to do it for him. And she always does
 In the woods, too, we shall find the goldfnch and the purple finch, the former feeding on birch seed, perhaps, and always cheerful. But the young folks must not expect to find in winter the goldfinch in the plumage indicated by it's name. In the winter months he is drab or brown, with tinges of olive or light yellow on his head. The pur- .lo avobaS ore feediOer on the elm, the maple and the berries of cedar trees. One cold day not long ago a fine pair of these birds flew up from the ground in front of me and alighted near by. When had passed they had returned to the ground. I wondered why. To drink from an icy spring that quivered in a hollow.

GRAND TO LIVE
And the Last Laugh is Always the Best

"Six months ago would have laugh ed at the idea that there could be any thing better for a table beverage than coffee" writes an Ohio woman; now laugh to know there is.
 Since childhood I drank coffee as freely as any other member of the fam ily. The result was a puny sickly girl, and as I grew into womanhood I did not gain in health, but was afflicted with heart trouble, weak and disordered stomach, wrecked nerves and 8 general breaking down, till last winter, at the age of 38, I seemed to be on the verge nf consumption. My friends greeted me with How bad you look! What ter rible color! and this was not very com forting.
 "The doctors and patent medicines did me absolutely no good. was thoroughly discouraged.
 "Then I gave up coffee and com menced Postum Food Coffee. At first didn't like it, but after few trials, and following the directions exactly, 1t was grand. It was refreshing and satisfy- ing. In couple of weeks l noticed a great change. I became stronger, my brain grew clearer, I was not troubled with forgetfulness as in coffee times, my power of endurance was more than doubled. The heart trouble and indi- gestion disappeared and my nerves be- came steady and strong.
 T began to take an interest in things about me Housework and home-making became a pleasure. My friends have marveled at the change and when they inquire what brought it about I answer, 'Postum Food Coffee, and nothing else In the world." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

 Important Meeting of Pension Sur
 geOns--Captain Spencer's VIII.
 Hartford, March 9.-Hon. John w.. Atwood, of Wauregan, senator from the Twenty ninth district, is recovering from a long and painful affliction with his eyes that necessitated his being kept in a darkened room for weeks. The attack has been gradually over come and the senator Is now able to be out
 General Atwood, who has that title from service on the staff of Governor George E. Lounsbury, is one of the most public-spirited men in Windham county and captain of industry in that section of the state. He was only forty years of age when he entered the senate of 1905. His service in that body last year was eminently successful Personally he was one of the most pop ular members and won the admiration and good fellowship of everyone. Lieu tenant-Governor Rollin s. Woodruff, of New Haven, is one of General Atwood S closest friends and is a regular visitor at the senator's handsome home in Wauregan.
 The fact that General Atwood is now out and about will be learned of with great interest by politicians in the state. He pulls stroke oar in the po- litical contests of the republican party, and his Judgment is invariably sound and reliable.
 Ex- Surgeon General Charles J. Fox of Governor P. c. Lounsbury's staff, now residing in Hartford, is the presi- dent of the National Association of United States Pension Examining Sur geons, and will preside at the annual session of that body, which will be held in Boston June and 5. Dr. Fox was elected president of the association in Chicago last yean The membership Is not far from 4,5OO, pension examiners from all parts of the country belonging to the association.

The attendance of 5000 members is ex- pected. There will be- distinguished physicians present from Germany. Sur geon-G General Fox has been invited to deliver a paper before the section on dermatology as an expert in that field of medical practice. He has made a speciality for years of diseases of the digestive tract and diseases of the skin, becoming a recognized authority in both.
 Ex-Surgeon-Gene Fox has come to Hartford within year from Williman- tic, and is devoting the whole of his time to the, special lines of practice, which he has adopted for his life work. His father was an old-time medical practitioner in Wethersfeld, and his brother, Dr. Edward G. Fox, of that town, is the regular physician at the Connecticut state prison.

the fresh egg rate, about S5 cents z a dozen. That checked the demand
 There is a certain class in New York that consumes a fixed amount of eggs, no matter what the price is. But the poor people do not buy eggs to any extent unless they are cheap. < If the retailers had put the price of storage eggs down to "A or 25 cents a dozen, instead of trying to sell them at the fresh egg rate. the condition of the market would not be so unsatisfac- tory as it is today.
 T estimate that S2,0O0 cases of eggs have arrived in this city during the past six days, One demoralizing fea- ture of the situation is that the farm CTS are mixing storage eggs with the fresh eggs, Storage eggs are per- afectly good and healthful, but there is considerable shrinkage in their con- tents after they have been kept any. length of time.-New York Globe.
