4 PROFITABLE
 INVESTMENT

The most appropriate and at the same time the most attractive sou venir one may take from Alaska, is that which was instrumental in focus sing the attention of the entire world on our great country.
 Ever since the magic year of 1897 gold has poured from the creeks and beaches of Alaska and been convert ed into money reckoned into millions. Hence the sight of gold either mint ed or mounted at once directs ones mind to the land of the midnight sun
 What more appropriate then, than piece of nugget jewellery, either as a frame for the beautiful mastodon ivory, stained by the countless years it has endured, or nuggets joined in chain work by a skilled artisan. A brooch or solitary nugget Of curious natural shape is 0 souvenir which tells the story of the mad rush to the Klondike.
 The fact that purchase of nugget jewellery is in reality an investment in an article that cannot depreciate seems to be dawning upon the wis itors to the Northland and the sales are rapidly increasing in this line of goods.
 H. D. Kirmse has made @ study of the art of nugget jewellery mounting, and has the finest display of the yellow metal ever gathered to- gether in one salesrooul.

A MAIL ORDER DEAL.

Down in Oklahoma the other
day a man went into a store to
buy a saw, according to the
Square Dealer. He saw the kind
he wanted and asked the price.
1t was $1.65, the dealer said.
Good gracious" said the man,

That's less than it cost me-"
said the dealer, but I'll sell it

Governor Hawley has been re-
ceiving a great deal of condem-
nation at the hands of the repub-
lican press of the state on &C.
count of his cash valuation" tax
scheme but no one can deny that
the governor has the courage of
his convictions and is going to
be governor just as long as his
term of Office lasts. Governor
Hawley no doubt realized fully
that his stand on the tax ques-
ton would bring down a storm
of protest and condemnation on
his head but he went ahead just
the same. His latest move has
been to call special session of
the legislature in order to remodel
the tax laws of the state and put
them into shape to be properly
enforced and to apply equally to
every county in the state. 1t is
barely possible that the govern
or's stand may result in his de-
feat next fall but we honestly
believe that in time to come the
citizens of the state will honor
him for the stand he has taken
and will be brought to see that
they have grievously wronged
one who has done much to pro-
tect their interests.
