Making a Servant Work.


 We may easily imagine, says an ex- , change, that it is a source of satis- faction to Albert S. Burleson that it fell to his lot to give the parcel post its first real try-out The institution itself is epochal-most people do not appreciate it's possibilities-and any man might we'll feel pleased to have been instrumental in bringing about it's fruition Of course, the parcel post was inaugurated before MT. Burleson took office, but it was admittedly ex- perimental. In a recent magazine ar ticle MT. Eurleson speaks of it as the biggest thing in business" and such it is proving to De. One Of the most important offices of the parcel post is it's promise to cut out the ex- pensive middleman between produc- CT and consumer when these two wish to cooperate. Whatever the ultimate result of the parcel post may be, it is certain that at his time it is giv- ing the postmaster general field for labor and through it the government is making at least one servant do d lot of work

Half Million Dollar Never-ready Re- pair Ship Burnside Not Equal
 to the Job.

The cable repair ship Burnside has failed to make good the promise of yesterday to have the Seattle-Sitka cable repaired last night and the 10. cal cable office have received no com. munication from the ship since early yesterday morning.
 The Valdez end of the broken ca ble was buoyed at 8:3O yesterday morning, but telegrams from Sitka to the local cable officials give the in- formation that the cable ship has not as yet picked up the sitka end of the break.
 It is possible, think the officers, that a severe storm may have prevented the work of the ship grapling, while another theory is that second break may have occurred in the cable thus forcing the Burnside to continue in her efforts to locate the other break

WEATHER REPORT FROM SUMMIT Lieut.. Dougherty Orders Report Each Day of Conditions on Thomp-

. Lieut.. Dougherty, chief signal off Ger of the first division of the mili- tary telegraph, and cable lines, has instructed the operator in charge of the government telegraph station on Thompsons pass, to send in each day a complete report of the weather con. ditions on the summit, as the many stampeders, mushers, frefghters and prospectors in Valdez are anxious to know the weather conditions before they leave town.
 Lieut. Dougherty is making every effort to make the cable service as useful as it possibly can be made and will continue to make Improvements whenever he sees an opportunity to do so.

For Valdez School 6oard-charIes Wilcox Unable to Act and
 Money is Tied Up.

The Valdez School Board met last night and at the request of seven citi zens of the town, called an election to be held December 24th at the City Hall to elect a successor to Charles Wilcox, the present treasurer of the Board, who is unable to act at this time because of his temporary resi-. dence in Cordova
 MT. Wilcox did not care to name a substitute and requested the remain. der of the Board to do so, but as no authority exists, therefore it was thought best by c. E. Bunnell and A, Won Gunther, the remaining members of the Board, to have an election.
 Under the code the election will be held by the School Board, while the general elections of members of the Board is held under the supervision of the council This election will be held by the Board, which will name three judges and two clerks.
 No candidates have been announced yet, as the position is one necessitat- ing much work, so the politicians are not falling over one another to get the job.

TT you can dance the two-step, and,
above all, if you have a good sense
of rhythm, the tango is one of the
easiest of the new dances.
1t is not the old tango Of the stage,
which was nothing less than an aero
batic performance, but it is a pretty,
easy and graceful dance, and as every
body's doing It. Mr.. and Mrs. Vernon
Castle We're asked especially to show
just how the tango is done for the read
ers of this paper.
In the first place" said Mr.. Castle,
the upper part Of the body must be
held perfectly straight. The shoulders
must be squared man should be able
to balance a penny on them. There is
none of that graceful bending Of the
shoulders. The shoulders and the body
are held as in the old fashioned cake
walk
And i'm the next place the man must
know how to guide insisted dainty
Mrs Castle, and his hold must be firm
and yet loose enough so that the lady
can move easily to the side positions

that makes the tango what it is, for

twisting the leg from the knee down.

many gratifying things Mrs. Barton had
read in her hand. Yet Mrs Barton had
read several other hands that evening
and from the chance phrases Helen had
overheard she had been equally complI-
mentary TO them all
So Helen's feeling Of self satisfaction
was modified by the thought the posi-
bly, hattering generalities were the main
part of Mrs. Barton's system of palm
istry Perhaps that accounted for her
popularity in drawing room gatherings.
Later in the evening. after the maid
had brought in the sandwiches and the
claret punch. Mr.. Stevens suggested
that Warren have his palm read.
Helen glanced nervously toward him
She had often heard him denounce
palmistry is rot" and was afraid he
would make some scoffing remark.
However as Mrs. Barton was sitting
beside him. he restrained his comment
to a brief
mo, thank you: I'm afraid my palm
wouldn't be interesting

ton u was noticing it a little while
ago as you held a glass. Do let me
see it--just for a moment"
Reaching over she took his reluctant
hand and spread out the fingers.
"Oh." with a little gasp of astonsh-
ment, what a REMARKABLE hand!"
She bent over it more closely as though

never seen such lines. Really. Mr. Cur
it's" looking up at MIN, her eyes aglow,
I've read hundreds of palms and I've
never seen one so strongly marked.
Oh, you MUST let me read II! Come
over by the light"
Her method OF attack was effective.
for Warren sat down by the light and
held out his hand. The others gath
cred around to listen.
It's an inSpirational hand declared
Mrs Barton, the nand of born lead

He tried to say it -carelessly, but
Helen who was following every word

both pleased and impressed.
Another remarkable thing about
your hand is that besides showing such
unusual strength of character, it's also
the hand Of an artist. You're intense
W artistic With a hand like that you
might have been d great musician or a

Helen knew that Warren cared very
little for music. He had no musical
ability whatever and no discrimination.

variety Yet he murmured an assent

The steps can be done forward, back,
to the side and in open position for
turn of the knee. Almost every couple
have some variation Of their own,
dancing the tango without touching, the
girl with her arms extended, the man
with his behind him, but always in per-
feet rhythm.
In dancing forward in open position
the steps must be Of precisely the same
length and the turn of the knee done at
the same time and with the same
amount Of force That is the whole
trick in a dance that looks more com
plicated than II really is.
