WOMAN VISITS
 PIONEERS HOME
Mrs. Feusi ot Douglas Thinks Old Men Should Be Kept
 at Light Work

Mrs. Feusi of this place, who, accom- panied by her daughters, spent nearly three weeks at sitka recently, visited the Pioneers Home several times while there and her description Of the home and its environments Is quite in torcstiug. Among other things. Mrs. Feusi, who is one Of tho most active members of the Pioneer Woman's society, in conversation with @ News representative said
 Really, the inmates Of tho Home are better oG for che comforts of life than they were when providing for them. selves, yet many Of them are dissatis- fled and, in my opinion, their dissatis- faction Is due Co the fact that they have nothing to do. Both Superintendent Shoup aud Dr.. Johnson are very pop. ular with thc inmates and deservedly SO, as they both take great interest in their duties.
 There are sixty men in che Home and Of that number ten arc confined to che sick room. Now, in my opinion, there could be some Improvements in Chi, department. The sick are provided with che same meals as Che well and this condition Is due Co Che fact chat one woman does the cooking for the entire sixty and it Is impossible for her to provide separately for the sick inc mates. With but little outlay a separ- ate kitchen could be maintained and a separate cook should be provided for these unfortunate men.
 There Is not enough for the men to do and that is why they are not as well satisfied as they might be. As there is lots of Hnc garden land near che Home, they should be put to work four or five hours daily, or as long as they are able, and they should be paid for their work, ii only 30 or 3j cents per day. This would be eight OF ten dol. lars % month for them and that amount would provide them with fruit. tobacco aud such things as they arc now denied. Besides, it would keep them employed and they would not have SO much time for grouchiug. One old man 7S years old left the home last year and is now located in Sitka where be is raising chickens. He gets sI50 a month peu- sion but says ho win Cell the govern ment to keep it if his hens do well for another few months. Another old man who Is at the home owns little bout and he goes fishing every day and is as happy as lark all Che time. No won der some of them arc dissatisfied, the moro some people get for nothing the more they want.
 "The woman who does che cooking bakes fresh bread six days every week and che men are well fed. However, they could raise much they eat instead Of having it shipped Co them.
 "rhe Home Is kept as neat and clean as any private home. Itisa great in- suution but there are many Of the

The scalp is not like other skin

your scalp that life and health
