March Brings Out Unsightly Spots.
How to Remove Easily.

The woman with tender skin
breads March because it IS likely to
cover her face with ugly freckles. No
matter how thick her veil, the sun
and winds have strong tendency to
make her freckle.
Fortunately for her piece of mind
the prescription, othine-doube
strength, makes it possible for even
those most susceptible to frcckles to
keep their skin clear and white. No
matter how stubborn a case OF
treckles you have, the double strength
othine should remove them.
Get an ounce from your druggist
and Danish the freckles. Money back

Machine 7; Side Stepping.

Thus, after missing up things all
through the session. the machine has
discovered that it will be good politics
to shift responsibility for the failure
of this session off of their own Shout
ders onto the minority majority and
while they have been unable to run
things just to suit them they are wise
enough to try and get from under the
responsibility of the utter and deplor-
able mess which they have got the
present session into.

HOUSE CHAPLAIN
PRAYS FOR HARMONY
Row Between Democratic Ma

to Be Worrying Parson.
CAUCUS IS ABANDONED
(From a Staff Correspondent

(From a Staff Correspondent
Lincoln, March l5.-(Special.)-
Even the democratic chaplain of the
house is getting fearful that the DEM
ocratic majority in that body is rap
idly drifting toward the. rocks and
this morning sent up an appeal on
high for assistance. The continual
scrapping has evidently even worried
The parson, and so when he performed
lis morning devotions today he said:
How beautiful it is when brethren
dwell together in unity. 1t is like the
precious ointment upon the head, the
bountiful showers which come to
soothe the parched earth and. lend
brightness to the fading flowers. 1t is
like the soothing hand upon the
ievered brow and the comforting
words in the hour of bereavement"
Caucus Not Held.
1t will be known later whether the
democrats realized that he was quot
ing a little Scripture or plank in
the national democratic platform
written to get into Office on and not
to follow after getting in.
The democrats held no caucus last
night. There was really little to call
a caucus for. The machine, which had
been running things, or, more prop
crly, trying TO run things, during this
session. discovering that it was a case
of either giving up control of the STU
ating or losing it to combination of
insurgent democrats and republicans,
decided discretion to be the better
part of valor and gracefully handed
out sop to the insurgents by giving
them control of the sitting commit

was up and dressed when my call
csre for Rampant had not slept.
The room was sitting hot, 70 ! open
I'd the door wide. pulled the sheets
over my head. leaving place for
breath. and told tho mosquitoes 10 go
20 it, And they did Wherever the
sheet touched my body they would
stake claim and sink shaft, and
they had way Of snoaking under the
sheet and jumping a claim. The
Yukon mosquito is wise to the game.
He knows his season is short and he
takes q bunch Of long chances.
One lady paSsonged was up. She
was from Los Angeles. Her father
was steamboat captain on the lower
river and she was on visit 10 him.
She had made the trip before and she
knew where Rex Beach's cabin was.
50 we climbed 10 the high bank and
started out 10 'see Rampant"
II didn't take long. The town was
the typical river bunch of log houses
and stores, one street facing the river.
There was no traffic restrictions or
sidewalk congestions, and we made
speed. In the midnight twilight we
soon found the authors cabin, just like
all the other log houses with the ex-
ception Of the distinguishing mark OF
a pair of moose horns over the door.
And 1t was here, the lady told me,
that Rex Beach wrote ''The Barrier"
don't know how he could have done
il. OF all the lonesome places on the
Yukon Rampant was Exhibit l." !
brushed away the mosquitoes, looked
into the window Of the cabin and men
tally told Rex he had nothing to fear
from me. The herd instinct grabbed
me-we bolted for the boat. ! had
seen the celebrated cabin and was
thoroughly satisfied 1t seemed to me
inspiration framed a cold hand for
Rex Beach when il denit him Ram
part.
Days later, at st. Michael, was
speaking of seeing Beach's cabin,
when man laughed. ! asked where
was the funny place. He said Beach's
cabin burned long time ago, and
now the people tooke turns in putting
a pair Of moose horns on the different
cabins in town and slipping over the
counterfeit. 'T'he last trip | made
the authors cabin was at the extreme
east end Of the town. Now they tell
me II is the west ends turn for this
season"
Then concluded Alaska was about
as full of deceit as the outside.
At two o'clock In the morning the
steamer pulled into Tananna (pro-
nounce the last syllable "naugh.")
couldn't sleep so | took my grip and
went ashore. This fort town is at the
junction Of the Yukon and Tananna
rivers, where they told US we would
have TO wait "about five days for the
steamer down, as our boat went on to
Fairbanks.
As the writer has written, the town
was about a mile long and eighteen
inches wide, with Fort Gibbon at one
end and bunch Of "red light" cabins
