Oh Joy! There is a young man Oh Bliss! in Fairbanks who, in Oh H.! his soliloQuies alter
 mates between the eX pressions, "Oh Joy" and "Oh H." The reason he does so is that when he thinks of the tourist lady now we'll on her way down the Yukon there is nothing but Joy" to it while the latter expression is called forth by his reflections of what he might be doing these days if the tourist lady in question had not entered into his calculations while she was here during the Fourth of July celebration,
 For when he spoke to certain local young lady few evenings ago, inviting her to go to the pie ture show with him, she said, You take a trip down the river and see the tourist lady"

HlStOry AnClent ana MeQleFul Repeats history tell us many
 Itself things of interest con corning the great per sonages who lived in the times chrOnicled And among other things told about is how Richard of Eng land who, after his participation in the great crusades which shook all Europe during the middle ages, sec ond only to the present war or to the Napoleonic period, was called "The Lion Hearted" so that his name has descended to us as Rich trd. Occur de Lion" was born with two well defined teeth in his lower jaw,
 And history has repeated itself in the Avakoff baby. For the in fant son of Mir. and Mrs. Harry R.. Avakoff, born here about two weeks ago, first saw the light of day with the two central incisors in it's lower jaw ready for business.
 And the fact that history recog- nizes the infantile teeth of Richard Occur de Lion, makes the birth of the Avakoff baby with two teeth a very unusual happening. In fact it is stated that instances are rare and few when such freaks of nature obtain.
 The Avakoffs have not yet named | their baby. But on account of the fact that the history of English royalty has repeated itself in their son they have felt inclined to name him after royalty Instead of Rich ard, however, the name will prob ably be Hike" after King Hike, the first king of Armenia. That however, is merely a matter of con lecture for, although Hike" may be a perfectly good name in Ar menia, it has quite different mean | ing in America.

They had intended to par ticipate in the Fourth of July base ball series and drag down the prize money of $1OO and a share of the gate receipts If possible.
 When Captain Rotch returned to Nenana, however. 1t was with the information that the Fairbanks sports refused to allow the Nenana nine to participate in the series and make 1t a three-cornered affair.

 Washington. D. C., May 16, 1916. Alaskan Engineering Commission. Washington, D. c.
 My Dear Sirs:
 This is in response to letter of
 April 26 1916, signed by MT. A. Christensen, manager of your Land and Industrial department, relating to the question of whether home
 steader in Alaska may give up for
 valuable consideration a portion of his claim, without in anywise affecting his right to perfect title to the remaining land:
 If the party actually has a home
 stead entry of record, whether it
 be for a tract covered by the public surveys or for one included in a pri- vate survey, he may relinquish the
 entry in the former case as to cer- tain subdivisions, or in the latter tr Q n rt n Q land and, properly identified with reference to the survey-though in
 the latter case it may be necessary to have a supplemental survey, or, at any rate a plat, in order to lden- | tify the land remaining on the claim. There is no provision of law under | which such action could have the effect of working a forfeiture as to
 the unrelinQuished part of the entry upon the ground that consideration 1 for the relinquishment was received. AS to partial amendments of | homestead locations under the Act of March 3. 1903 (32 Stat. lO2S). the same consideration would apply, 1 in such cases the abandonment of | part of the land would properly take l the form of an amended location

Town Gossip and Stories
By The IattIer.

Charley During most Fourth of Had A July celebrations and Good Sleep. other holidays when
 most people are enjoying themselves it behooves Charley Thompson to get in and make hay while the sun shines" Which means tat 'harlcy has to stick pretty close to business Consequently he usually gets but very little sleep on holidays According to all ac- counts regarding the recent Fourth celebration, however, Charley had nice long sleep, and right in the middle of the celebration, too.
 It seems that on the night of the third. when 1t rained, Charley and Pat Meehan, of Fairbanks creek, wore celebrating together. II was along about midnight that Pat de cided that he would like to go home to Fairbanks creek, therefore, Char Icy very obligingly offered to get up the auto and take him thirty odd miles short journey, even though it was raining.
 When the machine reached the
 'OlistTcam winter cutoff Charley took the cutoff instead of the regu- lar trail. He had not gone far however. when he realized his mis take and stopped his engine. The rain was pouring. consequently it up In the meantime, or during tn" time that Pat was trying to crank the machine, Charley fell asleep according to the story told
 Well-Pat couldn't crank the ma chine and supposed it was broken down He therefore made up his mind that, as he was wet anyhow, he would walk on out to Fox and play little joke on Charley by leaving him asleep This he pro ceeded to do, reaching Fox just as one of the regular autos was start ing on it's way to town. Pat told his story to the driver of the auto mobile. who brought his load to town and then started back after Charley with several helpers from the membership of the Fairbanks Automobile club The story had included the statement that Char ley's red devil" had broken down, and of course the rescue crew went out prepared to meet any emergency. When the bunch arrived at the scene of the breakdown they found Charley still sleeping peacefully. They immediately started to work n the car, anticipating trouble ahead, one of their number proceed ing to awaken the sleeper. And they were considerably surprised when Charley woke up with a yawn and started in berating them for disturbing his sleep.
 Suffice to say the car came to town under it's own power after ii had been cranked up and Charley had good long Fourth of July sleep. You can ask Charley wheth
 CT or not there were any mosquitoes.

A Safe and Simple Way That Has

To the thousands OF men and

If you weigh less than you should

It isn't what YOU eat that counts.
It's what your system aSs~inilates thai

thin, scrawny and under weight, liv-

You can eat pounds and pounds of
meat, quarts and quarts Of vegetables,
drink gallons and gallons of good SEN

Sargol has been called the missing
link between f~ood-eating and flesh
