"Children's Day" was the idea Of
the superintendent OF the new hos.
pital. Old methods had been aban.
doned and new ones ruled. Doctor
Oakley believed that in admitting the
little folks Of the town to the hospital
grounds once a month, in charge Of
the matron, he would cheer up his
conValescents, inspire the young peo-
pie with a sense of pity, and bring con-
~tributions to the hospital.
Eli Baynes seemed a terribly old
person to Dorothy and Ned, though,
as a matter of fact, he was only forty.
But he had returned from the West
crippled with rheumatism, contracted
by working in the silver mines, and
after three months at the hospital be
was only just beginning to regain his
health.
He sat in his wheeled chair. and his
eyes widened with pleasure as he
saw his little friends approaching.
Tell US another story. Uncle Eli"
pleaded Dorothy, climbing upon his
knee.
Another story?" Eli inquired. How
many stories do you think I know?"
Hundreds" said Dorothy promptly.
You are so old, you see. You must
be nearly a hundred, aren't you. Uncle
Eli?"
Not quite so old" laughed Eli
Baynes. How are you little folks
getting on at homer"
ITS just like one of your own fairy
tales, Uncle ELL" said Ned. Ever
since mother inherited that fortune

One of the most dangerous
things to neglect is a Cold or Sc
we're Cough. If treatment is COM
menced promptly with the
proper remedy, both are easily
cured, but if neglected they oft
times develop into Pneumonia or
Consumption, or some Chronic
Bronchial affection. Most per-
sons neglect treating themselves
for the principal reason that
they either don't think it SER
ious enough to go to a doctor /;
thinking it will get itself without
treatment or don't know what
good medicine to buy at a drug
store, and if something more
serious doesn't develop, it be-
comes deep seated through this
neglect and hangs on the whole
winter, when it might have
otherwise been speedily cured,
had Schiffmann's New Concen-
trated Expectorant been used
promptly.
No risk whatever is run in buy
ing this remedy as Crenshaw &

it does not give perfect satisfac-

GREAT VARIETY OF BIRD PETS
Lover Of F%eathered Creatures May
Pay for Them Almost Any Price
That His Fancy Dictates.

A recent international bird show
has provided some astonishing facts
and figures regarding the value Of
song birds, remarks London Tit-Bits.
There r nearly 100 classes Of ca
naries. That they can be Norwich or
Lancashire, border or Yorkshire va.
riegated, lizard, u~nfighted, clear, cross
bred, crested, self or foul conveys
very little to the average mind, but
leaves n marveling at the variety Of
chirping little creatures whose feath-
ers are every conceivable shade OF
yellow. One marvels also at the va
riety Of birds that could be kept as
pets. Ffnches, %linnets, redpoles, tom
tits, robins, wrens, ~stonechats, bah
blers, redstarts and long-tailed, short
tailed and crested varieties Of all Of
them in every size from the minute
humming bird to the plump scarlet
cockatoo, all vie for the popularity
which up to the present has been the
monopoly Of the canary. And these
little birds are all quite cheap. A few
shillings will buy most Of them, but,
on the other hand, $500 would be
asked for a gorgeous crimson bird Of
paradise, or $4,000 for the ~canary-bul-
finch White Rose, the most expensive
song bird in the world.

Among Juneau's most progressive retail stores is the ice cream and candy parlor knows as the "ROL- VAT" This business was started about six years ago by w. w.

There have been many in- stances when tourists have purchased confections while passing through the city and then have sent in repeat or ders by mail. One order of this sort was recently received from Hollis, New Hampshire for several pounds of "ROLYAT" sweets.
