WHAT STEVE BIRCH SAID
 TO THE CORDOYA TIMES,

The exact words used by Stephen Birch, managing director of the AL aska Syndicate, as quoted in the Cor dova Times of July 2l are worth re- production as showing the opinion of the chief mining representative of the Guggenheims Mr. Birch, by the way, will visit this part of the territory soon. The words attributed to Mir. Birch in the paper mentioned are:
 "It was our original plan to build a spur to the coal fields with the pos sible extension of the railroad to the interior but the government, in its wisdom, saw fit to stop development of the Copper River valley and dis courage capital from further railroad building. Now it is up to the govern ment to open up and develope what ever section of the territory it sees fit. We will continue to operate our own mines and provide whatever railroad service is necessary to handle the tonnage"

JUNEAU.-That the body of the man found near Juneau, Alaska, last Thursday, with a bullet wound in the head, is that of c. S. Stafford, former manager of the Georgian hotel of this city, is the belief of F. C. Caldwell, owner of the hotel. Mr. Caldwell says that Stafford myster- iously disappeared on the afternoon of June IA. Later Caldwell trailed the missing man to Ketchikan through the checking of his baggage, and a week ago a guest at the hotel reported that he had seen Stafford at Juneau.
 Mir. Caldwell says that Stafford evidently ended his own life. The former manager obtained a divorce from his wife, who is now in Montana, several months ago, and he also had suffered from insomnia for some little time.-Empire.

HAVING A GOOD COMPLEXION.

Nothing adds to woman's ap, pearance so much as a good com pleXion, and this is impossible to attain unless the digestion is good and the general system kept clear If you are troubled with indigestion you may make up your mind that not only will you suffer, but your complexion will be disfigured until you are rid of this ailment
 Chew your food thoroughly if you wish to digest it easily. Also be careful of what you eat and when you eat it, keeping strict meal hours
 To keep the skin clear it is a good idea to purchase from any reliable drug store 25 cents worth of senna leaves and to eat good pinch of these each night. followed by a glass of water. The leaves are an herb used by the Egyptians and the In dians for their healthful properties and are prescribed today by some of the best doctors. Twenty-Five cents worth of the leaves will last al- most month. which make them a much cheaper laxative than most others on the market. Besides they are harmless and not at all un- pleasant to the taste.
 For a dry skin, massage frequent ly with a good cold cream, and for an oily complexion, bathe the face with water in which a few drops of ben zoin have been. dissolved, or with camphor water. The latter is also good for large pores.

Sleep to Become Beautiful

One of the greatest beautifiers ln which has the advantage of requir- iEg no expense is sleep. Given plenty of rest any woman can i'm prove her looks 50 per cent, those who are pretty becoming positively beautiful, those who are less good looking adding at least radiance to their attlactiYeness.
 Clear eyes can only be gained by a full measure of sleep, and clear eyes are not to scorned as a beauty asset. If your eyes are large and beautiful in expression, but dulled by lack of rest then your whole ap- pearance is marred. If, on the other I&Ld, your eyes are small but bril- liant and sparkling with perfect health, t. en you will never go un- noticed, as you might if the win dCws Of your soul' were dimmed by 100 little sleep
 REQUIRED AMOUNT OF SLEEP
 How much rest, perhaps you will ask, does the average woman re- quire? It all depends upon the wo- man, but the average person needs at least eight hours rest every night to keep her health and good looks. great many women require more, but if eight or nine hours are given each night to complete relaxation and rest 1t is pretty safe to say that radiant good looks will be the re suit
 The trouble with the average in 0ividNal is that she does not bring
The Alaska citizen., 1915-01-18

regularity to bear upon the sleep ing problem. One nigEt perhaps she takes ten hours rest and tn. on six or seven. She thinks if sh, makes up one night for what she has lost the others that she will ge, along just as well as if she had ave ragged a regular amount. Now oi course. this is not the case
 In sleep, as in every ot' CT beauty treatment, it is regularity that counts. Eight hours sleep every night is worth a whole day spent in bed once a week to make up for lost rest.
 FIRST SIGNS OF AGE.
 Not only do ones eyes grow dull when the tired mind and body are denied sleep, but deep dark circles work of wrinkles appears. They come gradually almost impercep iDly a first, but they are the forerunners Of old age and nothing will eradicate these telltale marks so quickly as plenty of rest. So, all things con sidered, don't you think it's wei worth while to give a little more time 10 stepping?
 Another [ ing that adds greatly to the youthful appearance of a woman is clear complexion. This can only be gained by good digestion and general cleaning out of the sys tenn. Clogged organs will give the skin muddy tint. which is enough to make any woman look positively up1y

Winter brings with it all sorts Of additional responsibilities. Much of this falls on the shoulders of the housewife but great deal of the sponsIDillty which 1t should be her uuty to take Is quite unknown 10 her. For instance, very few house wives realize that certain foods ac: As fuel to the human body. and ac- corulngly the meals they serve are not properly balanced. If their hus- bands or children complain of the cold. these ignorant housewives un- pacn extra flannels, sweaters or ...,AI.erS.

The warm body belongs to the man, wo- man or child whose glowing cheeks sparkling eyes and vigorous walk proclaim the proper food and cap itD4e u gestiun Such as these will iUL cen shiyer when January's icy blasts make t.e average person blue with cold.
 WARM FOODS.
 There are certain foods which will help to keep the body warm, and these should be found al least once on the daily menu in winter time. These foods provide fuel to the body. Just as the ordinary fire needs, first 7- nd paper ttld will need coal-as soon as we get iD-so the fires of men require different kinds of fuel to keep them burning.
 Meats, starches. sweets and fats aIe the fuel providers.

Right Living i'm Winter

Jurn out very quickly. Nevertheless, they are absolutely necessary. If the vitality is low a cup of cocoa will rekindle the flame. It must be remembered that in winter the fires of life burn faster than at any other time. More fuel is required for con sumption when the air is chilly tan at any other period in the year. MEATS. SEARCHES AND SWEETS
 Fat is unlike starch in it's effect on the human body. The warmth produced by fatty foods is lasting 1t is the reserve force in the fuel of life because it takes longer to digest it than any other food and does not begin work until the rest of the fuel has been consumed.
 In fact, if the vitality is kept up ,y other forces, tie warmth produc- ed by fat is laid aside in the body's ecret cells until the time of need, case of sickness, etc. Men who undergo heavy physical labor re luire a great deal of fat in theil Iaily menu because of the latent .orce it gives them. Under the head f fatty foods come oils tpeanut
 i've and almond oiD. cream, but -el. peanut butter. salt pork, bacon
 nd sausages.
 With these three. groups, meat, ,tarches and sweets, and fats, ends heS list of fuel providers. but the 'ody needs much attention besides the plain stoking in of fuel. If an ordinary stove Is not emptied of ls es and thoroughly cleaned out becomes Choked up and useless The body. too, needs it's clean CTS, and fresh fruits and fresh vege- tables perform this office for the human system. Cranberry is one of the best tonics which nature gives us with which to clean out the body It's acids counteract the oversupply of starch and fat, it is an excellent stnnulant for the liver and it's iron purifies the blood.
 There are great many vegetables to be ! ad in winter. the acids and salts of which are not lost because they have been long removed from the ground. Beets, onions. cabbages turnips and parsnips all come under this head
 The ideal menu for winter is one which provides one starchy food one fatty one, one meat and one sweet
