CHEERFUL WOMEN
Dependency is a thing of evil origin
and evil results. Worry produces moth
ing but wrinkles and wretchedness.
Let the reader put up little note on
her bureau, on her desk, and at the
head of her bed, just two words, DON'T
WORRY. Worry is the greatest foe to
the happiness of any household. An
anxious, respondent face, a fretful,
complaining voice, will make every one
uncomfortable
A woman's nerves are more truly the
cause of worry than outside troubles.

Mrs. Pruell has been faithful servant of that insti- tuition for these many years until she was accepted as a fixture, as 1t were, at the bank Extremely courteous, and attending strictly to business, she made of every patron of the bank a friend who will no doubt miss her very much.

 IMPORTANT BUSINESS
TWELVE HALIBUT BOATS COME -. IN AFTER ICE FROM PRINCE
 RUPERT.

MT. H. O. Roberts, fish buyer for the San Juan Fish Company at Prince Rupert, arrived in town last evening on the Prince George.

Roberts admitted that this was partly correct, and that he was here in the interest of the fishermen in that respect, He said that he could not understand the shortage of ice at Prince Rupert as heretofore, the fishermen have always been able to get as much as they wanted. MT. Rob erts will remain in town for few days.
 As evidence of the truth of the ru- nor, it is reported that twelve hali- but fishing boats arrived in port this morning, their object being to get ice for their next trip. It is also said that more will follow within the next few hours
