GLEANINGS FROM GREAT
 NORTHERN EMPIRE
O-O-

The store of Taylor, Drury, Pedlar and company at Carmacks, about half way between Whitehorse and Daw- son. was robbed last week. The rob bers took nothing but cash and gold dust. and got but $315. The mounted police have been unable to solve the mystery.
 President O. l.. Dickeson, of the White Pass, and H. Wheeler, superin- tendent of the river division of that company, have left for Fairbanks, where they will seek to get more intimate acquaintance with the busi- ness men of the lower Yukon river country into which their company has extended it's operaetions. Mrs. Dick eson accompanies her husband on the trip.
 II. B. Welch has so acres seeded to potatoes on his farm at Minto on the Yukon river between WhitehOrse and Dawson, and he is now preparing to go into the rearing of livestock. He plans to raise reindeer, goats and sheep. He has 1000 acres of good land, and says he can use all of it.. He is seeking to have the Dominion government aid agricultural devel- opment in Yukon Territory.
 George Mutchler, the Iditarod tram way man who recently came out from that district, says the gold output of the Iditarod will be greater this year than it was last year.
 
 An outfit of prospectOrs organized at Fairbanks left recently with supplies sufficient to last the members of the party for one year to prospect the Shushana river and it's tributaries. There were four men in the party, and they started in polling boat.
 
 Dr. J. Chambers, of Nome, who had accused Judge c. D. Murane, former Mayor w. A. Gilmore and Assistant District Attorney N. H. Castle Of various crimes, including bribe-tak- ing and grating, was sentenced to four months in jail for libel by Unit ed States Commissioner George Scho- field last month.
 Trail creek in the Ruby district is producing some handsome nuggets. Pieces of gold worth $297 and $76 re- spectively were found on the creek beside many of smaller values.
 
 A moose weighing 1900 pounds and with horns that had a spread of 70 inches was recently killed in the coun- try back of Ruby.

The Schaefer method was unani-

rules for resuscitation in case of cleo
tric shock give the following instruc-
tiOns for applying the method. They
are worth quoting as being probably
the most authoritative OF all directions
on this particular matter. The rules
say:
1. AS soon az the victim is clear of

The Hollow Tooth.

Norman T.. Mack's National Monthly.
Colonel Roosevelt numbers among hfA
friends the owner of a splendid planta-
ton in Georgia. On the colonel's first
visit to h plantation he noticed that
Old Ben. a negro house servant. pos-
sessed a fine set Of teeth which seemed
to be unimpaired. Ex-presidential in
quiry developed that Old Ben knew no
more OF the uses of the tooth brush or
denta loss than he did Of rouge. On
n OF the cOlonel's subsequent visits.
however, Old Hen was suffering from
toothache. and All the result Of a con-
ference, the ex-president was deputixei
to break the news to the negro that
he would have to go to the dentist.

was soon followed by the rattle Of

When Old hen regatned conscious

his finger into his mouth, howied. then

MAY BE ABLE TO THRESH
GRAIN IN THE FIELDS

The saving to the grain farmer
consists not only in dispensing with
the many high waged t%hreshers, but
also in the time formerly lost by cutting
the grain. hauling it to the stack and
then hauling the threshed straw back
to the land. where. as u rule it is ulti-
mately- burned up. MIR. Baldwin fig
ures that 1t is best to take the thresher
to h field. rather than to take the Held
to the t%hresher. Besides the saving in
time and labor. there is the not incon-
siderable element of the utilization OF
the straw. Tests show tina straw is
worth more On the land as fertilizer
than in any other way. In addition,
the waste of land now covered with
straw stacks is considerable. a railroad
official computing that no less than
$50, 900 acres in Kansas alone are am

back into cultivation, and by leaving

And every point ina circle. you know,

before, but 1t is a hopeful feeling. There
are SO many things everybody would
like to get away rom. The trouble is
that the things we should like to get
away from are THE very things that
hold history to the circle, and are also
the very things that we should not
know how to get along without. There
is politics, for example. Nobody likes
politics. n it mikes things up Ho hat

trusts. Socialists would cut history
loose from the circle by destroying the
present system of property. but none
of them has been able to suggest what
we should do after the system was de-
stroyed- 2cformers would free history
by destroying social evils. but there are
as msny ways of destroying those evils
as there are reformers. Women would
get history away from the circle by ia
king affairs into their own hands. 1t

Quite seriously speaking. there is one
gain which has been brought about by the
revolution and evolution of fashion which
Is an unqualified and indtsputahle gain. 1t
Is the elimination OF the corset as a necee-

corsets, and yet not he set down as a
hopeless trump or person of questionable
modesty. Moreover. corsets are now be-
Ing made not to distort the body, but to
give 1t the freest and most natural lines
possible. The weli-dressed woman who
wears cOrsets wants to look as if she
didn't. All this is not merely y point OF
fashion nor even NJ hygiene, 1t liz a dis
tinct step In the civilization OF the ace.

much merriment from this reply. but 1t

been made. What custom more cruel and
senseless than the old-time corset has ever
afflicted a people? Mary Roberts Coolidge.

passing generations:
The corset. worn originally in Europe

modest women. To he seen without 1t

even v%ulgarly suggestive. Az soon as any
young girl approached adolescence. she
had to put it on. Some mothers said. for
propriety's sake: and other mothers that
she might have a good figure when she

must develop the small waist and the large
hips and bust like a French fashion plate,
i'm order to meet the requirements of Puri-
tan mOdesty.'
What could be a more ridiculous reason
for thwartinx the vigorous development
of a growing girl? The makers Of fash
ion will probably try to change again their
dictates In this regard. But the history
of the corset will probably be like hat Of
