leys furnish the bulk of the musk
rat output. The natives Of those re-
gions use vast numbers of muskrat
skins every year for clothing and in
barter with other tribes. Their
value is steadily increasing, and, as
a result, the animal is hunted more
vigorously each season-so much so,
indeed, that determination would
soon threaten it, but for the fact
that the Federal Government has
now made Alaska a game preserve,
and will establish adequate protec-
ton for this and other fur-bearing
creatures.
The total quantity of furs shipped
out of Alaska in the last year repre-
sented a value of $917,625-not in

The Telephone Girl Who Asked
King for Kiss--and Got IT!

IF a cat may look at king, may
a telephone central" girl ask
4 for a royal kiss over the wire
and get it?
Yes" IS the answer, and from
no less a king than Victor Emanuel
of ltaly-and thereby hangs one OF
the most charming romantic tales
in which royalty figures In these
practical, prosaic times.
The heroine. one OF the prettlest
telephone girls in Rome, is Sig
norma Maria Carrubetto. She has
scarlet lips and a cloud Of smoke
colored hair. There is a curve OF
the lips and a sparkle In the dark
eyes which proclaim that the Sig.
norma Is OF a merry disposition, as
ready as any Of her comrades, upon
occasion, for fiirtatious repartee
with the telephone company's pat
rons.
Now. Il happens that Marla's
central" is the one which makes
connections for the Quirinal-au
the departments OF the kings estab-
lishment in Rome, including the
royal stables. AS II is not usual fer
royal personages TO do their own
telephoning, Maria had never heard
Victor Emanueps voice.
Like the young King of Spain.
Victor Emanuel can be easy aud
democratic in his manners when he
60 chooses. That Is usually his
mood when he makes a visit OF In.
spection To the royal stables. The
grooms idolize him on this account,
and none Of them more than does
the youngest and most debonair OF
them all, whom the king Is accus-
toned 70 greet with a friendly
smile, by name, Giuseppi, and ask
how he is getting on.
