 "It is my desire to, if possible, get into closer touch with all north crn shippers. and the travelling pub lie, and therefore would like the Canadian Pacific company's office in Skagway considered by them as an information bureau on any or all matters of transportation.
 I've are only too glad, at any time. to meet residents in Alaska and yukon who may be passing through Sllagway, north or south bound, or to answer any and all in- quiries made by letter
 "While We are in the rail and steamship business many inquiries reach me from residents in the United States and Canada relative to northern matters and in the same manner would welcome all northern residents using us.
 While the Canadian Pacific con- pany operate steamships from Skag way it especially would have il known that it is not necessary fol passengers south bound to take those steamships, if it is desired tc use their rail lines out Of Seattle Or vancouver.
 "Au passengers destined to east ern points in Canada or the states to Europe or the Orient will be cheerfuny furnished with all neceS sarv particulars for their trip o1 actual tickets issued covering same and baggage checked to destina' tion.
 "Tho impression seems to have become general that to use tho Canadian Pacific comDauy's steam CTS from Skagway during the Euro pean troubles, was risk, and would hasten to assure that such i: Iuot the case, and that were it so the Canadian Pacific company wOulD be the first to advise all interested

What the British are undertaking IN

interesting extent about $500 years
ago by King Menes. He is credited
with the earliest irrigation works,
when dykes were made on the west
bank Of the Nile to retain the flood wa
tiers on the land for a longer period,
the east bank being left open for the
lnundation to spend itself freely. Two
thousand years later Amenemhat III
extended the same system of basin IT.

to ward Of the danger Of a high flood
he made Lake Moeris where Is now the
Fayum. Into this great artificial lake,
one Of the wonders of the world at that
period, the high waters were allowed
to escape, and from it, when the crest
Of the food had passed, the basins OF
lower Egypt were kept supplied, with
out danger of overlooking.

To GET BEST our OF COFFEE
Method of Preparation Has Much to

In the first place the housewife

ly pulverized, she must be careful
that it is quickly used or confined in
air-proof, moisture-proof jars, other
wise the oil will escape into the air
and VIII absorb moisture.
In the actual preparation Of the
beverage, however, the important
thing Is to brew the coffee. "Brewed'
coffee is not Cooked" In the process
Of brewing the oils are extracted
from the fbrous tissue, whereas when
coffee is boiled or cooked" the fiber
is stewed. in and the flavor and purity
Of the liquid is damaged. The water
must be boiled; the coffee must not.
Water at the boiling point should be
poured on the coffee, but 1t should
not stand too long, ard it shruld not
get chilled.
The elimination of the coffee-tannin
Is. best brought about in the filtration
