THE LAND OF THE
 H.T AND RUN

Swinging away from the winters

 And the sIanuug rays of the sun, We're entering now tho land of
 delight,
 The land of the hit and run. A fresh smile comes to the old
 worlds face
 The days of our longing are done, As we walk in fields of walloping
 might,
 The fields of the hit and run. There base hits sing their sweet
 est lays,
 There mesbes of errors ere spun; In this land we're entering from
 the night,
 The land of the hit and run.
 As announced in yesterdays issue of the Daily Alaskan a meeting of tho officers of the Skagway base ball club was held last night at the W. p.

CANDIDATES ON
BEAUTY PARADE

Wichita, Kan, July 16.-Twenty-
five of the sixty-fve candidates for
county Offices went on display before
one hundred women in a church here.
Palm Beach suits, white socks and
shoes, Panama hats and a delicate ar
oma from the wife's toilet water bottle
marked the environment of most of
the office seekers. All had been newly
shaved and appeared with their hair
trimmed and their shoes polished.
The Rev. Mary sibbets, a national
prohibition lecturer, who is visiting
her daughter here. put some of the
men through a severe course of
sprouts leaning toward national pro-
hibition and the equal suffrage amend
ment. Myra McHenry, who took Carry
Nations place as a street crusader
against liquor and for Woman's rights,
lent her experience at a cross-exam-
nation of some of the candidates. 1t
was the second parade the men who
want Office have had for the benefit OF
the women voters, and it won't be the
last.

Regional Bank in Georgia.
But Senator Smiths browning
achievement for Georgia was in Sc.

regional banks provided for by the

This bank, which will have about
five million dollars capital, will be
located in Atlanta, and will make the
Georgia capital the financial center
for Georgia, Florida, East Tennessee
Alabama, part of Mississippi, and
part of Louisiana, including the city
of New Orleans, Its purpose is to

island of the Hawaiian group, which
has long been used as a leper colony.
Father Damien first made it famous
Now it is under the control of our
public health service, which main
tains physicians and laboratories
there, so that the lepers are given
the best of medical care. At the same
time they. are allowed to live as or
binary human beings. with their hus-
bands or wives. and their children,
| so that there is no isolation. no pest
house system.
The report takes up the question of
sons in the settlement who have come
in more or less close contact with
lepers. AS the disease takes so long
to develop, the physicians did not
take into consideration any one who
came TO the settlement after 1908.
Two classes Of persons had to be con-
sidered. First, the so-called "ko-
kouas,' clean persons who have lived
with lepers in close Relationship, usu-
| ally as husbands or wives, sometimes
as mothers or sisters; and second,
, those who came in less close contact
with lepers-priests and members of
nursing and religious orders.
THE territorial board of health is
authorized by law to permit a clean
adult to accompany a leper to the set
| tlement. Upon the death of the leper,
or for other reasons, the kOkua may
leave the settlement. after a physi-
clans examination to determine free
dom from leprosy. 1t frequently hap
pens. however, that the person re-
mains and marries another leper
Usually these kokuas have no dread
of becoming infected with the disease.
Few Develop Leprosy.
! The examination of 119 male ko,
kuas, SO OF whom were married to
leperS, showed that five had develop
ed leprOsy. These five were all hus,
bands of lepers. Among the % who
lived with lepers, but not in coniugal
relation, nine developed it,
Among the women, the figures
were very similar. Four out OF SO
women married to lepers became IN
! fected with the disease. one out of
% living with lepers other than hus-
ing care Of her leprous son.
| These ten persons developed the
disease after periods of exposure rang
| ing from three years, the shortest, to
IL years On the other hand, 81 of
| those who have not developed the
disease have been in the colony be-
| tween five and ten years.
The percentage of contagious,
then, is between four and five. and
low as this is. it is probably higher
| than is actually true. for about 2 per
, cent of the general native population
of the islands develops leprosy. There
fore, some of these may have been in
fected outside.
Once Chartered With Lepers.
The members of the second class
are all Caucasians, and include priests,

SULPHUR IS THE
ONLY THING FOR
ITCHING ECZEMA
Use like cold cream to subdue
irritation and clear
the skin.

IN the treatment of the various
forms of disfguring, itching and burn
ing Eczema such as Acne, Ringworm,
Salt Rheum, there IS nothing known
that can take the place of bold
sulphur cream.
1t effects such prompt relief, even
in the aggravated Eczema, that it is a
never-ending source of amazement to
physicians.
For years bold-sulphur has occupied
a secure position in the treatment of
cutaneous eruptions by reason of its
cooling, misunderstanding properties.
Bold-sulphur is not only parasiticidal,
but antipruritic and antiseptic, there
fore invaluable in overcoming irritable
and inflammatory affections of the
skin. While not always establishing a
permanent cure, yet in every instance
it instantly stops the agonizing Itch
ing; subdues the irritation and heals
the inflamed, raw skin right up, and
it is often years later before any
Eczema eruption again appears.
Those troubled should obtain from
any good pharmacist an ounce of bold
sulphur cream and apply it directly
upon the abrasion like an ordinary
cold cream. 1t isn't unpleasant and
the prompt relief afforded is very well
come.

STEAK AND HIGH LIVING

when the increased cost of living is
discussed to-day, the complaint usu-
ally begins by quoting the prices of
rib roast or sirloin steak. In 1740, the
best beef sold in Boston at twelve
cents a pound, but from colonial days
down to very late period meat was
supplied in a most primitive manner.
AS late as the Seventies everybody,
even in considerable towns, kept
chickens and nearly everybody a pig
permitted to roam at will through the
streets. Pigs were butchered in the
back yards of private residences, and
the carcass hung from the branches
or a convenient apple tree. The
butcher bought what cattle he could,
and at times the meat was excellent
in quality, but more often the carcass
was that of a COW that no longer
gave milk, of a bull that has lost his
bloom, or of a steer whose work under
the yoke was no longer efficient; and
invariably steak for dinner was her.
aided by the vigorous pounding with
the potato masher welded by the stall
war arm of the cook. The average
quality of beef was so poor that pork
was rightly preferred as food, and
was sold for double the price of beef
