Toads to Mrs. Hard Shell Snail
But never so much as now said
Mrs. Hard Shell Snail. 1t just seems
as if we were all tired out. It's the
result of the Spring house cleaning l
suppose. We didn't have nearly so
much sleep then. We had to fix our
shells and choose our Summer homes
and we had really a great deal Of GO
! ing about. Yes, We got very tired
Indeed we did, said Mr.. Hard
Shell Snail, and all the little Hard
Shell Snails chimed in too, and said:
oh, we're all very, very tired
"But,' said the T0ads, here you are
all talking about how tired you are,
and you don't give us a chance at all.
/ We were the first ones who said we
were tired
Well said another Snail, that
may be quite, quite true. But certain
~ we ali felt tired first
You always, always do laughed

know what we're going to do

who suddenly appeared in the very
/ spot where the Toads and SnaiI5
we're talking. I know where you're
al going. You're going with US
where's that?' shouted the TOads.
And the Snails who are always be-
/ hind hand in everything said, a few
minutes after, Where's that?'
We're going to take a trip with

And who's the Wind Bird?' asked
one of the Toads. They were really
very curious considering they were
invited guests But the Toads are
nice and mean we'll even though they
haven't such very good manners.
| We've never heard of the Wind Bird,
/ though, of course, we don't know so
many Birds, not so very, very many,
and none of them so very we'll The
Toad's voice got very hoarse and sad
as he said this. but one of the Snails
said:
Well, we know none of the Birds
at all, and glad of it We are. They're
forever flying about and never still.
! Even though we're told they do go to
sleep sometimes and put their heads
under their wings-sti1l they don't ap-
preciate sleep as we do. Will that
Wind Bird let us sleep?'

GREAT FUTURE PREDICTED
 F0R LYNN CANAL DISTRICT

Fred FonzC, a pioneer Alaskan
 and formerly United States deputy
 marshal for the skagway district,
 arrived in this city a few days ago,
 and expresses his opinion in the
 most enthusiastic manner over the
 future of the district along the shores of the inland waters be- tween this port and Juneau.
 He believes that prospectors who are looking for new mining dis trict-one which has hardly yet been touched, and which will even tually become a producer of en- ormous Bealth-would do well to keep an eye on the mcuntains and creeks along Lynn canal between Douglas Island and skagway.
 "It Is 8 well known fact" said | Hr. Fonzo to a representative of his paper, "that prospectors for 1 many years past have occasionally pent a little time along the shores f the Inland Passage, and a few ave even ventured some distance ack into the hills, but all have Yentuaily been drawn farther north nd finally into the Interior by the Ire Of gold that had already been ( 'und in the hopes of finding new elds. r

doubleday the single eyegass confers

can sustain the distinction.
ITO wear a monocle successfully
a man must be perfectly dressed. A
monocle and baggy trousers are an
impossible combination. Probably
one of the reasons why monocles are
becoming popular with middle-aged
men is the reluctance of the man of
forty to be eclipsed by the glamor
of uniform.
