 Praise is never wholly undeseryed.
 Risk it. , , Go ahead Say it. You can hardly come in con tact with anybody without noting some commendable thing. Speak of it.

 You are full of gentle thoughts and gentle words only you do not realize how full until you begin to speak. tain of your praise.
 For this world of human hearts is dry and dusty Most men and women so about smitten with cruel thirst The sons and daughters of men perish for ap preciaton rain of your cheering words. Drop the dew of your admiring glances and warm smiles on the just and upon the unjust. with heavens indiscriminaton
 Contwist you smile!
 We Americans are an odd lot We are soft as wax in our hearts. full of generous feeling hungry to help the next But we hate to admit it.

HOPEFUL NEWS

Let US hope that the news which comes from Washington that the Canadian government and Can acian railroads will so change the rules and regua- tions and rates that terminal arrangements for the shipping of fish to Chicago and other Eastern points from Ketchikan and other Alaskan ports will be the same as those from Prince Rupert, and that the other facilities that are afforded Prince Rupert fish buyers will also be at the disposal of the Alaskan buyers. Such an arrangement will be most satisfactory for the Alaska fishermen. It will give them the option of selling wherever they do best and 1t will give the Alaskan buyers an equal break with the Canadian. Such an arrangement would be pleasing manner Of settling a yexatious problem and one that would promote harmony between Alas kans and Canadians. very desirable thing There is a long boundary line between Alasks and Canada and it will be greatly to the material advantage of the whole and add immensely to the pleasure of life near the boundary and both sides Of it if the line Is made as obscure as possible.
