THE FAITH IS GROWING

On this trip the party visited Ha-

"Whil our boat land III the
mouth Of Bayou Bonttc- and W.
stayed there for some little while
the whole party indulge in spec
nlating npnn the feasibility Of
connecting the Techc and Routte
by a canal. The idea that such a
work should be undertaken was
unanimous endorsed by our par
ty. Many reasons and instances
were cited to confirm this judg
ment.
"On this trip we came across a

trade. Because there is no direct
or practical means of reaching
this city with snch commodities,
the moss gathered in Iberia par

such a canal, connecting the two

un,red by the man who is willing

There is possibly a greater rea

But it was felt that the cost of making the assessment particularly in the spasey settled sections of the Territory and the collection o1 the tax would add enormously to the governmental expenses says the Juneau Empire To adopt that method 1t was held the lawyers the legislature it would be necessary to place assessment the property in the remote sec of the Territory we'll that in those sections where the of and collection would not be so great in DODOrOn to the that would be cOltctel IL thought that the adoption of such system of taxation would add to the of those in the thcky set tied sections of the Territory.

Did You know that good. wide
open mouthed yawn IS splendid thing
for your whole body? This is the opin
ion of an English hygienist
1t is one of natures most evident de
mands for Il rest Some people think
they yawn because they are sleepy
But that is not SO They yawn be
cause they are tired. They may be
sleepy. too but that is not the real
cause of their yawning. You are
sleepy because you are tired. and you
yawn because you are tired
Whenever you feel like yawning just
go ahead and yawn. Don't try to sup
press 1t unless you are out in very
formal society, where your hostess
would be grieyed.
If you can stretch at the same time
that you yawn do that. too. for it is
another way of natures stretching and
relaxing the muscles. Indeed. if you
are very tired and do not feel like
yawning there is nothing that will rest
you 50 quickly as to sit ON a straight
backed chair and lift the feet from the
floor, push them out in front of you as
far as possible, stretch out the arms
and put the head back
Then open the mouth and make your.
self yawn. Your tense nerves will re
lax, the contracted muscles will stretch
and the whole body will be rested
