Begin taking Card-u-i, today

Real Worth Us, Low Cost

If you asked your butcher for
a porterhouse steak and he handed
you cut Of the flank and said,
"This doesn't cost as much and
is just as good" you wouldn't
believe him, would your
Yet the butchers statement
is just as truthful as an asser-
ton that inferior baking pow
ders made Of alum or phosphate
Of lime are az good as Roya-,
which is made from cream Of
tartar.
Alum is a mineral acid salt,
declared by many medical author--
ties unsafe to Use in food.
Royal Baking Powder is as
pure and wholesome as the grapes
in the vineyard, from which cream
Of tartar is derived.
The only reason for using such
subst tutes as alum and lime
phosphates is because their cost
is less to the manufac turer.

JUST CHARGE IT

Who of us fail to comment on the high cost ot nVing every day? In our daily purchases we never fall to notice an increase way another, and naturally we must say something the next time we make another similar purchase, it will have risen again This mgn os of living is attributed to various which of course is right Some will attribute 1t to monopoiy others to high wages; others to Democratic admmls traton-thats the wors-sti others to peoples extrav agance Whatever the cause, all know that It cost lot of money to live these days; and this leads ms to Htte reflection with the result that we must frankly admit that contribute good snare ol te increase of the cost of living For instance take the habit of charge it that all cultivate more CT ess.
 It is safe to say that those two words charge It, are thrown across the in our little community oftener than any other word. Charge 1t, says the pedantie lady when she makes the purchase of g priced article "Charge it," says the poor woman puy ing loaf of bread, etc, etc From the schooioos , to the fathers suit of clothes, it is ever charge l.

WHY GERMAN sKEPTICIsM From Portland Telegram

German editors are skeptica concerning the sin- certv of the American in it's plain and emphatic note addressed to Great Brtian. German editors are nettled, as are the German people, as doubtless we would be if we in their place, over the conditions that make this country supply of arms and munitions for their enemies As it is apt to do that frame of mind beclouds the judgement
 President Wilson has at no time indicated that he has any disposition in the discussion ot the lnter national affairs to indulge in game of bluff Ger many at one time quite of the contrary oplnion but President Wilson convinced Germany that such sup position mistaken one.
 We would not like to think that the protests and arguments so sody and solemny presentd in the note to England are to be understood by Englishmen or any one of greater weight than the attaching to formal and academic discussion We do not think that is the fact and do not believe the American people as whole have any such opinion.
 It does not follow that abiding confidence to the effect that the just what it says in that note must be coupled with an alternative if England does not concede the justice of our main contention. This country is in position quite eff fectualy enforce its views they are demonstrated to be absolutely just and without resort to arms Expedency and sound judgement in England should tend to the recognition of that power.
 It is great principle in the discussion, not Of present but of future applications not only concerning but concerning all governments, and for all the time, so far as we President Wilson is not trfng or equvocatng with that principle.

WHY SHOULD BUY MY GOODS IN ALASKA

BECAUSE one good turn deserves another.
 BECAUSE the man I buy from pays his part of the city and school taxes. BECAUSE the man I buy from in Alaska helps support my schools, my church, my lodge, my city and my home.
 BECAUSE should bad luck come, or misfortune or bereavement over take me, the man I buy from in Alaska is here with his kindly greeting his world of cheer, and his pocket book is need be.
 BECAUHE every dollar I spend in Alaska gives me another chance at that dollar.
 Here is my pledge:
 Here I live and here I buy. I believe in Ketchikan.
 I believe in her people.
 buy ill the town I believe in. II BUY FROM THE TONGASS TRADING COMPANY,
 BECAUSE in so doing, my pledge is fulfilled, and I can meet Alas kans with the feeling that 1 am do- ing my part toward building up my home and educating my children to support their HOME TOWN FIRST.

Williams No Match
For Johnny Kilbane
In Six-ROund Battle

$4,000, but the total expenses, pre-
liminaries and advertising have not
yet been figured up. On these figures
the Olympia probably made q small
profit.
Johnny held the Baltimore lad at
arms length on any number Of oc-
casions and then jabbed away with his
left He Jared Williams in the clos
ing rounds and Williams's head was
accidentally cut.
Manager Harris claimed that Will
liams was butted by kilbane in the
third round, but Referee O'Brien
passed II by. At any rate. kilbane
was fighting hard and waded In at
every opportunity.
There was not much action in the
first and second rounds. but the little
ing time. kilbane wanted to see II
Williams would tear into him at first.
The Baltimore lad did attempt some
of his fast stuff. but kilbane smoth-
cred him with jabs and hooks.
It was case of kilbane knowing
too much for Williams. who was az
gressive enough. but had the majority
Of his hardest punches swept aside by
Johnny's stiff defense.
In the sixth Knbane almost put
Williams down. 1t was right and
caught the kid as he was coming in
Just for the second Williams seemed
to leave the floor. He was as though
suspended In the air, but a quick re-
turn Of the body brought him down
on both feet, and Kilbane backed W
to see what damage he had done.
