 IAIMODEST IDEAS
Mrs Mary Hart of Alaska Would Bar Up-to-Date Women From
 Skagway and Fairbanks

T would hate to have some of the most up-to-date dressers in our large American cities parade through Shagway or Fairbanks. I'm afraid they would put fmmodest ideas into the minds of our na- tive women, says Mrs. Mary r. Hart, president of the Alaska Cruise Club aud one of the best known women of the far north country who passed through St. Louis yes teiday.
 Mrs. Hart glanced thoughtfully down Olive street, where women in shortskirts and open neck coats were making a headway against the breeze.
 One a steamer captains wife wore a pair of flannel bloomers in to Point Hope, Alaska" she said Ever since then lot Of the Els. kifo women have been wearing bloomers made out of deerskin. A you can imagine they are anything but graceful"
 Mrs. Hart for the last year has been at the Panama-Pacific Expo, sitioa in San Francisco, where she had charge of the Alaska exhibits She has been visiting her son, E A. Hart of Poplar Bluff, Mo. She departed last night ofr Harrisburg Mo. Co visit her mother.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Although our partons were not aware of the fact, nevertheless they have chosen for us the brand of confectionery that we shall eat- " in stock. For several months pas. we have been receiving sam- ples from various Pacific Coast con- fectiOuers, and our friends and patrons have been invited to test these samples. The decision, with out one single exceptions was that A. & K. candy was the beat. AL most every one declared delicious
 Having thus rendered a decision as to what candy was prefsrTed, we entered into negotiations with A. & K. and after much correspond ence we secured from them the er- elusive agency in Skagway for their products. Not only did we se- cure the agency for their package goods, such as Chocolate Butter Crisp" and "Yictoria Chocalotes," ," but we induced them to sidestep a rule dnd sell us their entire line of choice bulk chocolates.
 We therefore announce that for the first time since A. & K. have entere the confectionery business, we are the only store that has ev- CT sold their chocolates in bulk. and we are proud to state that from this time on you will be able to get all varieties of Augustine & Kyers candies in quantities to suit yosr appetite and purse.
 The price will be SO cents per pound or fraction thereof for the bulk chocolates, and you will at al! times be sold only that which is fresh. This price is the same that you would pay for the same goois if you were to step into the A.&
 K store in Seattle.
 If you have not sampled this candy, you are cordially invited to cali and try 1t. Keller Bros. Drug Company,
