A SHATTERED IDOL.

When a man has attained more or less prominence in the public eye, even though he be the most unworthy in the land, and then loses the pres tige he has gained. it. is really pathet- ic to contemplate, but when such tting does happen. and the downfall IS solely due to the man himself it is just another case of putting the devil
 Marshal Erwin is the shattered idol
 There was a time in the history of Fairbanks when parade on our streets was not complete without Stub" Erwin. If there was a public gathering Stubs" was in the center. True, on many occasions his pres ence was due to the fact that it was at his own solicitation, and on others when his office (and not the man) was entitled to representation. If he was not solicited he could always be count ed upon to volunteer.
 Therefore the scene in the potlatch parade was pathetic in the extreme.
 When the automobiles assembled at the school house grounds for for nation of the parade Stubs" Err win was there with his one-horse shay and swung in behind the last auto. He was not invited to be there and was not wanted, but there he was with the smile acquired in the "sun-kissed hills of Georgie." He ex- pected a demonstration throughout the entire line of march, but was dis appointed. When he arrived at the park he took his position to the south of the diamond, facing the grandstand. He was allowed to occupy the south side solely and alone
 Then he moved his thoroughbred charger to the north side and tried to edge in among the real people, J that also was failure, for as soon as he had signified his intentions the drivers of the autos near him be. thought themselves of some persons who would like to visit the park, and forthwith made a hurried trip down the street. Upon returning they fail ed to take up their old stand from which they had departed but a few moments before. The battlefront un derwent an entire change.
 Then the gallant ex-knight departed and was seen no more. He was hurt ed' to the quick because he was not made over," and just for that he de cided that he would not honor them with his presence longer.
 There is no doubt but that Mar shal Erwin feels slighted after his cool reception. He is only human, and

TEACH CHILDREN TO
 EAT PROPER FOOD
TO EAT ANYTHING ANYWHE ERE PROVES A VALUABLE ASSET IN AFTER YEARS.

Why don't we train our children to eat proper food? Why do we allow them to say q don't like this" and T don't eat that?"
 | have many visitors in the course of year, says a writer in the Wom- ans Home Companion, and l assure you my heart sinks when some of them come, for catering to their likes and dislikes is a herculean task.
 Hardly a child of my acquaintance eats one-third of the vegetables com monly served upon most tables, to say nothing of other articles of diet, and instead of trying to overcome these silly habits the parents say before the child, John doesn't like this or that" till what at first was a mere whim of Johns becomes an active dislike for are article mentioned.
 When my son began to eat resolv- ed that he should not be allowed to develop so many food whims to cause him or hostess annoyance in after life. From the first he was required to eat a small portion of all food suitable for him on the table If he really disliked it he needed only to take a small serv- ing, possibly a teaspoonful, but the next time he was obliged to try it again. He was never allowed to ex- press dislike for any article of food and thus strengthen his prejudice against it, while his father and I were careful to keep our individual food distates to ourselves. As a reward, now at F years of age our boy en- joys most ordinary articles of food, while he will eat without protest whatever is served him. His health is greatly benefited by varied diet, to say nothing of the satisfaction the home caterer derives from a normal eater.
 Of course, children with weak stom. achs or children otherwise delicate should not be forced to eat things that go against them,' proves a valu. able business asset.
 For the sake of a child's future comfort, health, mayhap success even train him not to be whimsical about his food

as thin-skinned as most men of his ilk, and being so constituted the slight has hurt.
 It is altogether likely that he has not attributed his fall to the proper source, and it falls to the lot of The Citizen to inform him that he is on the down-hill pull and does not stand knee high to grass-hopper in the commun ity since he filed the slanderous charges against his wife in support of his divorce proceedings, and then showed the yellow streak that is in him by backing water and calling the suit off just as soon as he found that the filing of the suit had been made public and that his martyr wife would defend her character; and in that de- fense would be criminal charges against the marshal.
 Then he quit Neither could be face the lies contained in his complaint nor the criminal charges. He quit like a dog He was too much coward to proceed, so did the next best thing and dogged the whole business. The people of the community de spise coward and hate a quitter, and for that reason will have nothing more to do with Stubs" Erwin, the shat tered didol.-(Fairbank Citizen)

ST. PAUL, July 22.-The platform of the national prohibition party, ad- opted at todays session of the party s convention, denounces the liquor traf- fic as a crime, declares for nation wide prohibition and equal suffrage and opposes the military programs of the republican and democratic parties.

Before the war it used to be said that every Jack had his trade The same can now be said of every Jill.
 Women in trousers are becoming more and more numerous They are donning them in greater numbers every day, in order to cope with work where the skirt is found to be a hin drance. They do not dislike the change and it can not be said to detract in any way from their native grace or carriage.
 Napoleon, it seems. was great be- Iiavar in orro 1-iDor v+op,an in r,,eo,,I;,,r n attire in time of war. Dress does not make the man." says the proverb; but Napoleon found that it made the wom- an, and that putting her into trousers made world of difference to her work and strength.

 Many thousands of women and girls are serving the nation as intuition workers. Many of the women engag. ed in munition work are art students musicians, embroidresses-girls who had been engaged in the fine arts and hope to be again.

LAST MEETING OF THE K. K. K

k
 Owing to the fact that the founder of the K. K. K. organization is to leave the city shortly, the members of that super-mysterious club-the name and not the members-are to meet this evening for the last time under their leader. Many suspect what the K. K. K. stands for but that is about all, for none of the boys have ever even hinted at the meaning. Far from it. When they mention the name, they look as mysterious themselves and pensive as the famous Kentucky cave where moonshiners met. Some of the members have been accused of being porch climbers and everything; but they remain obdurate and refuse to give out the secret One of them said today that Bob" was secretary. Nobody thought that of him. The club is also called "Illustrious." Just to add dignity, and not terror as the name suggests.
