OF late I have been reading particularly in
|teresting book collection of papers left behind
by the late William James, Memories and
Studies" It il introduced with PREDATORY note
by Henry James. jr, one Of the professors sons.
who. it is thought may carry the literary ira
dition of the two brilliant brothers. the psycholo-
tist and the novelist. Throughout this posthumous
work get portrait OF the author all over again,
in the genial, half-humorous outlook on life, in
the zest for observation, in the good sense and
wisdom, and in the large tolerance
few weeks after the San Francisco disaster
of 1906 l happened to find in a newspaper de-
lightful little article personal experience of
the earthquake, written by William James and re-
printed from the Youths Companion. 1t was so
intimate, so convincing. that it stood out in my
mind as the best of all the articles published on
the subject. used to feel sorry that it had dis
appeared in the maelstrom of periodical writing.
In looking this volume, greatly to my delight,
found it again. So it had been rescued for all
the world to enjoy. Eagerly l read it over. re-
peating the pleasure had had before. All lovers
of good writing ought to know that little study
"On Some Mental Effects of the Earthquake"
And after reading it, those who don't happen to
be acquainted with William James will wish to
go on and cstabl1sh an intimacy with that generous
spirit interested if all the manifestations of life
that came within the range of his experience.
The essays iaclude studies related to topics
OF vital appeal just now. One is "The Moral
Equivalent of War; which made a sensation when
it was first published in a magazine . few years,
ago. Tho war against war;" it says in the first
sentence, "is going to be no holiday excursion or
camping party" If the author were only alive
now. he would have something to say on the sub
ject Of the present situation in Europe that would
go straight to the heart of the matter. without
bothcring to give any expression of pious horror.
Modern is expensive that feel trade
to be a better avenue to plumber: but modern man
inherits all the inpate pugnacity and all the love
Of glory of his ancctsors Showing wars irrstion-
ality and horror Is OF no effect upon him. The
horrors make the fascination. War is the strong
life; it is life in cxtremis; war taxes the only
ones men never hesitate to pay, the budgets of
all nations show u.s."
These words. interesting and significant in
themselves, incidentally throw a little light on
the social attitude of William James. They don't
even consider the relation Of women to war Wom-
en- might be supposed not to have anything to do
with the matter.

RESERVE BANKS MAXI: GOOD
 SHOWING

WASHINGTON, May 3-Reports from the agents of the verious federal reserve banks throughout the coun- try show that the business outlook is improving, and that business condi- tions generally are on the up grade. The banking situation is such that the authorities of the new banks feel gratified with the showing they have made. More money is coming into circulation, and the activities of the stock markets show that the investing public has recovered from it's attack of parsimony.

TWO TOWNS VOTE ET--CH|T|NA
 GOES DRY

Chitina has gone dry" at least ac- cordiug to an interpretation of Judge Browns recent order regulating the granting of liquor licenses in this di- vision, and notwithstanding the fact that the "wets" of that town polled the largest number of votes. Under the ruling of the court a census has to be taken to determine whether or not the people where the application is desired are in favor of the sale of l- quor, which requires a majority of all the votes cast. The residents can vote yes, no, or no opinion.
 At Chitina Commissioner O'Connor appointed Mrs. J. P. Rockefeller and O. A. Nelson as census takers. A lively interest was manifested In the outcome of the vote, which resulted in 91 persons being boiled. Forty-two were for wet" thirty-nine for "dry" and ten had no opinion.

HOW PETROCRAD TREATS WAR
 PRISONERS

PETROGRAD, May 1--There is no evidence of hostility to prisoners of war in Petrograd Hundreds of pris- oners pass through the capital daily, on their way to places of confinement in remote places in the empire.
 A novel sight recently was a par ty of 1,500 Austrians from Przemysl. who were allowed to walk around the city as tourists, being shown the prin- cipal streets and buildings. Their bearing, especially that of the officers, was cheerful. After day spent in sightseeing. conducted by their guards, they left for the interior.

W ] R K FEDERAL BUILDING BY
 JAN. 1

The supervising architect of public buildings, of the treasury department, has written Geo. c. Hazelet. trustee of the Townsite company, to make some additional surveys of the twelve lots recently donated to the govern ment for the erection of 8 $1OO,OOO fed eral building at Cordova. Engineer A. J. Adams Is performing the neces- sary work, and these surveys will be sent to Washington.
 This interest on the part of the supervising architect would indicate that there is a desire to at once begin preparing the plans for the Cordova building.
 Under a ruling of the treasury de- partment work is to be begun on sev- enty-five public buildings during each fiscal year, which begins June 15. Cordoya is fifty-third on the next list and under ordinary circumstances the construction would begin here about January 1 next. Where titles are not perfected that city loses It's place, but as Cordova has already made its transfer of the site and is now supply. ing all additional information required the probabilities are that our posi- tion may be advanced and actual con- struction started on the building be- fore the end of the year

BASE BALL FANS WILL MEET
 TONIGHT

Just few days of sunshine and the lovers of the great national sport have become thoroughly aroused to the necessity of recognizing the ball team and also arranging for putting the park In condition for the coming season. The interest has taken root with the result that baseball rally has been called for tonight, to be held at the chamber of commerce rooms. All who are interested in seeing Cor dova properly represented on the di. amond are invited to attend the meeting.
 Practically the entire indebtedness incurred in fixing up the grounds last season has been wiped out, and ways and means will now be devised for enlarging the park and making such other improvements as are necessary. It is also planned to erect a grand stand, and by charging a nominal ad- mission sufficient funds can be raised to pay for this expenditure, and also provide for the maintenance of the team.

LUMBER COMP ANY WINS BORDEN
 SUIT \!

The filing of a first mortgage on the Borden building in favor of the Arc tic Lumber Company, securing the lumber company the payment of a note for S2,500 with interest. marks the termination of the well-known lien suit brought by the Arctic Lum- Der Company against Borden and his lessees two or three years ago. The lumber company sought to enforce a materialman's lien against the build ing, but the trial in the local district court resulted in the dismissal of the suit, An appeal was perfected to the circuit court of appeals for the Ninth circuit. where the decision of the lower court was reversed about year ago. From this decision Borden applied for writ of certiorari to the Supreme court. The application was denied a short time ago. It was, therefore, up to Borden to pay the lien, amounting to upwards of s2.5OO, together with costs and interest. Altogether. it is understood that there is approximate ly s3,5o0 due from Borden. and the mortgage mentioned covers part of that sum.

To Keep Skin Healthy,

Now that the social season Is here. be
especially careful to keep your skin in
fine condition. You know how conspicu-
Gus complexion defects appear under the
bright light of the drawing or ball room.
Also how very evident are some make
ups when similarly illuminated. ! have
myself discarded cosmetics entirely, us
ing process which gives far better re-
suits, and which leaves no trace on the
skin. At night / smear on a thin coat
of ordinary mercolized wax, washing it
off next morning. This gradually alb
serbs the devitalized particles Of surface
skin: just as gradually the more youthful
skin beneath comes FORTH providing a
complexion as clear, smooth and deli
cately tinted as a young girl. Get an
ounce of mercolized wax at your drug
gists and try this remarkable treatment.
Remember, too. that wrinkles. even the
finer lines, are not easily concealed in
