is that your poultry be kept Clean
and dry!
And last. but not least, make some
money out Of it. Get your father to
give you everything you make ADORE

Get into business for yourself this

POULTRY BUSINESS FOR BOYS
MongreI and kong Toe-NaiIed Hens
Are Only sLoafers and Eat Profits
Sell Them Off.

Arc you going to wait until you
grow up before you 60 into business?
That's a long time to wait.
Why not start now and learn now
while mistakes are not as fatal?
Get your father to let you take care
of the poultry. If he is the right kind
of a father he will be only too glad to
let you take hold of the work. And
then make "a business of them.
First, catch all those mongrel and
long toe-nailed hens and give them to
the church supper for stew. They
don't lay any eggs. They are only
loafers who eat up all the profits
which the good hens make for you.
No business man would keep a stock
Of shoes that he couldn't sell at a
profit. There is no more reason why
you should keep hens around the
place that don't pay.
Then fix up the poultry house SO

man would keep his stock in a leaky

How Smoking Injuries Health.

Laboratory work at the Paris Medi-
cal college indicates that tobacco
smoking does injuro the heart, but
not, as generally supposed, on account
of the nicotine present. Tobacco with
various proportions Of nicotine was
xsed ia tito tests, ard the effect on the
heart WINS the same. Oak leaves we're
fsund to produce very much the same
result as tobacco. and the conclusion
reached wac that the harmful effects
are due TO products OF combustion con-

STRANGE FASHION FREAKS
viomen's Styles Follow Stage Fads or
National costumes-Garter Helped
One Young Lady.

In nine cases out of ten fashions
are born, not made. and they can o.
ten be traced to the influence Of pass
ing events. 1t would seem that the
short. fun skirts which are now in
Vogue originated with the Russian bal
let which has been so popular of late,
In the same way as the tight skirts fol-
lowed the craze for oriental plays and
dances. Following up the Russian in
fiuence, the Paris fashion experts in
troduced the Cossack coat and high
Cossack boots.
Dress experts keep changing the
fashions, as 1t were, in self-defense.
At one time elaborately-worked and
hand embroidered blouses were the
vogue. Then machines were so per-
fected that machine embroidered
blouses outrivaled the hand work and
fashion experts retaliated by design
ing blouses as plain as they could be
made.
The fashion for uncurled feathers
~as the result Of a wet day. Curled
ostrich feathers were on every hat,
when, at some fashionable function,
the rain descended in torrents and ev-
cry feather was soon absolutely
straight. Milliners, always alert for
an idea, were struck with the appear
ance of these feathers, and uncurled
ostrich plumes became the demand.
The fashion for wearing ribbons in
termingled with curls piled on the top
OF the head originated in the reign OF
Louis XIV of France. A. certain Mile,
Fontange was out hunting with the
king and court, when a branch OF a
tree caught her hair and pulled II
down. With quick resourcefulness, she
leaned down, pulled of her ribbon gar.
ter. and twisted up her hair with It
Tho king. noticing the pretty effect
complimented her on her charming
couture. and from that moment the
"fontange." as It was termed, became
the rage.
It cannot be denied that most OF the
more extreme fashions originate with
tho stage, but the most lasting fash
ions are due to royalty. The vogue
for black and white. which has not YET
died out, was the result Of the death
of King Edward.

DORA KEEN WRITES OF
 THRILLING EXPERIENCE

Dora Keen, the famous mountain climber, who recently married George William Handy, of Mccarthy, who ac- companied her in her great climb of Mount Blackburn, has an article in the October Scribner, describing an ascent of the difficult Giants Tooth in the Alps. It is vivid narrative of adventure, and you cant help admir- ing the pluck and splendid courage that inspired such an effort. There are some fine photographic illustra- tions. She says:
 "But there was a zest in the com bat, a challenge to will-power and tac- tics, as well as to nedurance and muscle, in that seemingly inaccessible summit. There was the thrill of ad. venture in every step, and with every foot won sense of accomplishment, a new consciousness Of power, which brought confidence and strength for the fray. In the space of a few hours, more than in years before, l seemed to be acquiring all the qualities need ed for the hard battles and decisomS of life. The rocks were pitiless. Help was far. There must be no mistakes, whether for action or judgment, no slips, no moment when each was not doing his best, his part for the sue cess of all.

WHAT WAS SAID IN
 DEFENSE OF KRAUSE

The speech of the attorney for the defense in the ease against Edward Erause shows all that can be shown on the other side of the Juneau mur- ders. Hrause has been found guilty of murder since this speech was made but it is interesting to learn the line of his defense. The following is the speech of Attorney Krauczonas as taken from the Juneau Dispatch of October {:
 Attorney Krauczuuas reviewed the evidence of each witness, inviting at tentiOn of the jury Co the many wit ncsses who testified as Co tbc good character of James Puukctt He paid high compliment Co all such character witnesses but claimed that this evidence was not necessary, as the good character Of Pmkety was conceded by defense. This line Of evi- dence he claimed was introduced by the prosecution for the purpose of U- auenciug the jury for conviction of the defendant by the appearance of prominent citizens to testify jn prose cuuous behalf The jurys attention was called Co the letter alleged Co have been written by Hrause from Wrangcu. about the loss of the gas boat Lou. Prosecution claimed that this letter was written at Juneau by Krause on October 24th before he left with Pluukett, eudeayoring Co show by 1t premediation; attention Co the testimony Of said witness which show ed that he saw Krause writing a letter on his typewriter October 29, that on
The Seward gateway., 1916-10-12

blank, While Kraczunas made no effort to assert that Plunkett was not dead, he argued the possibilities of him being we'll and alive, and that if he is dead he could have died a nat mal death, or accidental death with out any one being responsible for same, and that some of his effects could have been appropriated after his death, natural or accidental, with out the defendant being guilty of murder. A number of accidents and peculiar disappearances were relate: to the jury, among those being that of Sandy Clark of Ketchikan, together with a government fish inspector and their cook, their bodies not being
 found to this day; and another ac- cidental drowning of Major Martin recently at Yakutat on account of which his companion who saved him self from drowning was accused Of murder but was later exonerated up- on the finding of the body of Martin which showed accidental drowning"
The Seward gateway., 1916-10-12

the morning said letter was received by Mr. Garfield, who testified that said letter showed Wrangell postmark on the envelope; Krauczunas stated that the evidence showed that Krause arrived in Juneau from Petersburg October 27th, and it was impossible for him to mail said letter at Wran- geIl; furthermore, that is shown by the evidence that Krause's typewriter remained at Juneau from Oct. 24, the day of alleged departure of Krause with Pmukett and until the formers return about noon of Oct. 27th, and that 1t was impossible for that letter Co have been written by defendant and mailed at Wrangell about three a. m. Oct 25th, as claimed by prose cutjou. Defendants attorney further claimed that said letter could not have been written by defendant at Juncau Oct. 2t, as that letter written with the object of returning government H- censc of Lou to the customs house could not have been in the possession of Krause before his alleged depart we with Punkctt.
 Defendants attorney conceded that there were some strange elements in the case which pointed to the connec- ton of the defendant with the depart urc of Pluukett. but that there were also many stranger clements about Pluukctts past life. He claimed that testimony showed Pmuketts residence at Juneau of about twenty years, but that among all the witnesses who tes-
 tided claiming intimate acquaintance with him no one knew where he came from and that witnesses testified that no one at Juneau knew anything about his life before coming here and that his past life before arriving here was

YREKA, Cal, Oct IA wedding with au the thrills of the movies took place here when Sally Smelling, Indian woman aged 56, married Erncsto Mazzom, Italian woodchopper, 40,
 Sally and Mazzoni, after much diff fculty, were finally able to make known their wants to the county clerk. But when the license was about to be issued, Mazzoni took sud- den fright and started dashiug down the boulevards. Not to be outdone, Sally did a bit of flashing herself. She chased the frightened Italian through the business section, finally capturing him behind a counter in a drygoods store.
 Catching him by the ear, she re- turned with him to the county clerk where the irense was issued, and the ceremony performed. The couple are honeymooning in an Indian hut.-Ex.

MUST QUIT EATING
CROP BEFORE MADE
South Must Stop Time-Honored Sys-
tenn OF Economic Suicide,
Says n. C. Hastings

Atlanta, Especial 1.-THE peo-
pie of the south must quit eating their
cotton or other so-called cash crop
before it is made if they ever expect
to accumulate wealth and have the
comforts and luXuries of life due
them" says H. G., Hastings, agricul-
tural vice president of the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce, and a fore
most authority on farm conditions in
the southeast.
The south must stop forever its
time-honored system of economic sui
eide says Mr.. Hastings. Advance
steps were made last year toward a
condition Of farm independence in the
Cotton Belt. They were forced steps,
II is true, but they marked an advance
Just the same, and more bread and
meat, more grain, forage and other
food and feed stuffS were made in
1915 than ever before, with the result
there are tens of thousands of farm
ers better off than in past years,
despite short crops and business de-
preston.
With higher cotton prices, it is
going to be great temptation to
drop back into the old habit of put
ting cotton, or whatever other cash
crop one may be growing, in pawn
for bread and meat. We are suffer
ing today from the old system fore
ed on us by conditions following the
Civil war, necessary then, but unnec-
esSary now.
Year after year we have stayed in
the same old rut as a matter of habit,
eating our crops, so to speak, before
they were made, financially suicidal
policy for the farmer. each year put
ting his nose a little closer to the
credit grindstone.
IF the south had not been so rich
in natural resources, this system
would have bankrupted us long ago.
What's the answer? 1t is home pro-
duction by each farmer of every dol
lars worth of food and grain supplies
needed on his farm that il is posi-
BILE to grow on his own acres. This
means good big hCme gardens: hogs,
chickens, cows and something TO feed
them on through the year"

WAY OF THE GUTTER.

The world has little use for a quit
ter. The fellow who starts and backs
out because the creek is up. The fell
low that promises to saw wood for
you Wednesday, discovers about nine
O'Clock there is screw loose in the
end of his saw, and sends you word
Saturday that he could not come. The
fellow who starts to trim the hedge,
blisters his hands and decides to let
it go until spring.
The boy who goes racing through
his school books until he strikes par
ticiples and compound fractions, then
wants to quit school and get job.
The girl who starts out to be a great
musician and learns just enough to
play rag-time to beguile the fancies
of some young saphead.
There is big family of these quit
tiers, but they are all sorry lot. They
never want job that takes time and
patience.
With the qualifications of bill
poster they would like to earn the
salary of a railroad president. Their
ideal is job that requires only two
hours of easy labor each day with
Saturdays and holidays off.
You will find them scattered all up
and down the road of human failure,
always turning back from the handle
of the pillow, always complaining of
their lot and the unfairness of the
world
They are clogs in the wheels, brok-
en- rails on the road, killers; pa
t;ence-killers, forever wanting what
they have not deserved.
a The only people who accomplish
things in this world are those who
qualify themselves in spite of bad
crops, high water and measles. Who
hang on to the work until failure
turns to victory, whose courage rises
as difficulties thicken, and whose faces
are forever toward the rising sun.
1t was bad plan, that of the In
dams, flinging their boys into the riv-
er where they had to swim or drown.
The best thing any parent can do for
his child is to compel him to finish
what he undertakes. Keep his at
it, and no matter how much he cries
and objects, make him do the thing
he started to do. And the best thing
any boy or girl can do is to do this
very thing without being made to do
it.
Success is a good deal in habit
There is not much difference between
failure and success. Simply one quits
and the other does not.-Ex.
