Advice
f r e e !

There is nothing so cheap
as advice, more especially it
you are not particular about
the kind. There il SO much
advice afloat that even the
humblest can have a plenty.
From the street corner ora
tor to the housewives ad-
monition to the neighbor
over the back yard fence. ad-
vice, free as air, is always in
circulation. There are many
grades of advice, but the
kind most valued is the kind
that is SOUGHT. The bank
er handles money and is in
touch with financial deals of
many kinds. Are you a pat
ron of the bank? Do you
need advice? Would you
like to know what some one
thinks who ought to be in a
position to know something
about business deals? The
banker is busy with his own
affairs, but he is not too busy
to give you his frank opinion
if you ask for it. That is
the kind of advice that is
worth having, the kind asked
for, and even that kind does
not cost you anything.

MOONLIGHT FAR
 AS BREWERY

Last evening about eight o'clocl, the water in the Moonlight pipe line reached the Nome Brewery and today people are getting spring water in that end of the town. The pressure is very small in the pipe line for many leaks have to be repaired before the line is in perfect order.
 Today men are at work lacking up the pipe and strengthening out bad kinks so the water should be in the pipes of the business section by to- morrow.
 The water vendors are preparing to commence delivering Moonlight spring water fin the next two days now that the water has reached town.
