sELLERs SKINNED TO DEATH
 BY THIS PROJECT

"Colonel Sellers" of Mark Twain fame proposed to cure 400 million pairs of sore eyes among the Chinese population but Q proposition has just reached this office through tho inc sligation of Q Berkeley mining engin- eer, ]. E. Harton of this city, which outrlyals the originator of tho "Huck- elborry Finn" and "Puddin Head Wilson" yarns, which is appended here for the delecatIon of our read CTS;
 Dear Sir:
 Knowing that you have some in- terest in the fur business, take the liberty of presenting you with what seems to be @ most wonderful busi- ness proposition, and which, no doubt, you win take a lively interest in and perhaps wire us the amount of stock that you wish to subscribe toward the formation of this company
 The object of this company is to operate O large cat ranch in or near Oakland. California. where land can be purchased for this purpose.
 TO start with, we collect about, say ono hundred thousand (1O0,0OO) cats Each cat will average twelve (12) kittens per year. The skins run from ten (1O) cents each for the white ones, to seyenty-flve (75) cents for the pure black. This will give us twelve million (12,OOO,OOO) skins for year to sell on an average of thir ty (SO) cents O piece, making our revenue about ten thousand (S10,000) per day gross.
 A man can skin fifty cats per day for two dollars (S2OO. It will take about 100 men to operate the ranch and therefore the net profit thus will be about nine thousand, eight hun dred dollars (s9.SOO.OO) per day.
 We will feed the cats on rate and will start O rat ranch next door. The rats will multiply four times as fast as tho cats therefore if we start with one million rats we will have fouI rats a day for each cat, which il plenty
 Now then, we will feed the rats on carcasses Of tho cats from which the skins have been taken. giving each rat a fourth of O cat
 It will thus be seen that the busi ness will be self sustaining and au tomatic all the way through. The cats will eat the rats and the rats will eat the cats and we will get the skins.
 Awaiting your prompt reply, and trusting that you will appreciate the opportunity that I give you and that you wlll grasp same and get rich quick. remain.
 Yours Very Truly,

Here's a Now Con Game.

It cost J. A. Kaufman, of Guthrie, Ia., S25 to bet on which way the tiger in the animal house at Lincoln park. Chicago. would wave his tail. A tiger, two men assured Kaufman, nearly always waves its tail up and down. However, owing to weather condi. tions. they declared they would give him s1 every time the Lincoln park tiger did SO, if he in turn would give them S1 each time the beast waved its tail right or left.
 Kaufman could not see how tho weather affected Q tigers tail and SO took their bets right and left When the police interefered the farmer was betting his last 50 cents. One of the men escaped, but the oth- CT was arrested.

t7s-DEcREE WATER
 IS DISCOVERED AT
 BELL HOT SPRINGS


 Water at a temperature of 17s de- grees in six sulphur wells on Bell Island form the basis for new health resort for Alaska. These sulphur springs are owned by D. S. Rowe and J. F. Rowe, brothers of Geo. Rowe, who discovered the springs n years ago about 42 miles northeast of Ket- chikan fin Behm Narrows. It is the intention of the Rowe brothers to build within the coming year a hotel which will be modern and up-to-date in every respect, to take the place of the cabins which are now rented fur nished at the rate of 30 cents per day.
 Cement curbs have been built around the six wells. und nearby stream has been piped to supply cold water for the baths, the sulphur wa ter being of too high a temperature to be used without cooling. The re- sort has its own gardens, and groc- cry for the convenience of the guests, and fresh meat is brought in each day from Ketchikan.
 The establishment at present has accommodations for 30 guests. and is open the entire year. Work is short ly to be begun on the new hotel and larger bath houses. Mir. Rowe stated a few days ago that he expects to make the place one of the most popu- lar summer hotels in Alaska, situat- ed as 1t is in the heart of an excel lent hunting and fishing region. and within easy access of port from which tho Alaska steamers sail.

TIMELY HINTS OF SHEEPFOLD
Animals of Medium Grade Lack Condl-
ton and Quality Necessary to
Bring Best Market Prices.

Why are pure-bred sheep the best
for mutton? Because both lambs and
sheep of the medium grade lack the
condition and quality necessary to
bring the best prices on the market.
Poorly bred sheep as a rule have
long, loosely.couped bodies with lit
tie spring of rib and rough outline,
and are coarse and often paunchy.
This class of animals is not desira BILE.
and market buyers make the best OF
their bad points.
A good thing to remember when
! lambing time comes on. A lamb that
is so badly chilled that IL appears to
! be dead, may be revived by pouring
down its throat half pint of warm
milk, into which a tablespoonful of
gin has been poured If there Is no
gin in the house, dip the lamb in a
tubful Of warm water, dry It off with
a rough cloth and place it near the
stove. Get some warm milk into its
stomach. II possible, and in a few
minutes it will be as frisky as ever.
A bunch OF sheep will clean up the
cornfield in which the stalks are left
standing In fine shape. They strip
off the blades and pick up every
kernel of stray corn left on the
! ground
The great loss of lambs Is. in some
instances, due almost entirely to the
/ fact that the ewes are allowed to run
! down and become weak before wean-
/ ing time
The quality of the market lamb de-
/ ponds largely upon the first four
