Cold Storage company, is the man who owes his health to science. One and a half years ago he resigned his po- sition because of i'll health. He was troubled with heart and liver trouble and sought relief from many doctors in both Seattle and Tacoma, visiting all the specialists One after another they tried to relieve him, and one af- ter another they gave up his case, a specialist telling him that he could not live.
 He was persuaded by a friend to try Christian Science. A pamphlet giveB him interested him and he started in to read. He became very enthusiastic A practitioner was called and MT Bryant started to mend The result is that he is today almost himself again physically, feeling as fit as a dollar, and cured of the trouble for which he suffered for years. Needless to say Mir Bryant is now firm advocate of Christian Science.

FAIRBANKS, Oct 9.-In a recent mail, H. E. St. George received a let ter from friend of his in Seattle, set. ting forth the details of one of the most remarkable cases of the power of Christian Science to cure that has ever been noted. It is an extremely inter esting case for the reason that the man cured is well known to all the old-timers in Fairbanks.

Women Create Fashion

Woman-lovely woman-she is the creator of styles. She knows what she wants. If she fancies Fox, that settles it-Fox will go for sure. It's Fox or nothing. This may seem strange to those who don't understand the feminine mind, nevertheless, it is one best bet proposition. Women will follow a leader. Someone in the World of fashion, and it may be a and popular woman of the stage or one of high fashionable society, springs a new stunt, her own idea or partly that of her furrier. She fash es it at some public function. If it takes, it is more contagious than the smallpox. In time, every woman in the civilized world wants the same thing. They don't all get it. Those who don't have the price, get the next best thing-an imitation.
 By the way of illustration, says MT. A. B. Shubert, president of A. B. Shu- bert, Inc, Chicago, U. s. A., (the largest house in the world dealing eX- clusiyely in American raw furs,) will cite a case. I was in Paris, Aug gust, 1913, and was shown by MT. M. Greenwalt of that city (the one manu- facturer of furs who has assisted in bringing out more novelties in ladies' furs than any living man), the first model of the now extremely fashion. able animal scarf, made from choice Silver Fox for Madame Sarah Bern hardt, the great French actress. The fashionable world grabbed for it. The result was, the big demand for all kinds of foxes, Fisher and the soft furred Northern Coyotes with the head attached.
 The market has been cleared of all the above skins; high prices will pre- vail this coming raw fur season and will continue so long as the animal scarf remains fashionable. After that it will be something else. No one knows what, but it will be the thing that woman, lovely woman, wants and not what the furrier is anxious to sell.
 With foxes in strong demand, and coyotes-the imitation-a close sec. ond-trappers will obtain very high prices for their collections of these articles.

How To Make a Huge
 Success of Your Life

General Charles H. Taylor of Bos ton is one of the most widely konwn newspaper men in the country and popular everywhere, is especially es teemed among those in the newspaper business. The Boston Globe, which he built up from obscurity to be one of the greatest newspapers of the coun try, is conclusive proof that he knows what success is. He is especially fit. ted with evidence and by nature to talk on that subject, and recent ad- dress of his on "The True Secret of l Success" deserves as wide a reading as possible. It is full of sense and of encouragement The Courant takes the occasion to publish a brief extract from it as a choice sample of delight ful paper. We should like to see it in every paper in the country:
 "The best rule for success in life is to do little more than is expected of you in any position that you may secure The boy or man who does more than is expected of him and is anxious for his employers progress will never get mislaid in the smallest office or the largest establishment. The people who do not succeed are those who begin at noon to watch the clock so that they will be certain to be all ready to rush out of the building at 5 o'clock or whatever the hour for clos. ing may be. The people who are afraid they will do more work than they are pa'd will never be paid for more than they do. Unsuccessful people in this world think that those who have sue ceeded have had luck. There may be something in luck, but the man who sits down and waits for it to come to him will starve. If there is any luck the man who is courageous and am bilious and industrious will be sure to find it.
 Some years ago Senator John James Ingalls, of Kansas wrote poem called Opportunity His theory was that Opportunity knocked at your door but once His poem is one of the most beautiful in the English Ian guage, but his theory is all wrong. The persons who have the microbes of am bition and industry do not wait for Opportunity to knock at the door, but have the door wide open and are out on the sidewalk or in the street hunt ing for Opportunity, and it is not diff ficult to find it. Do not wait for Op- portunity to knock if you wish for success"
