It is imperative that every young woman in our United States, secure in the enjoyment of Liberty and Happi ness, should "do her bit" by taking the place of some young man who is per forming heroic and valuable service on the battle front.
 In previous conflicts, women have not been unresponsiye to our countrys call aud the women of to day will like wise spring to the fore and do mans part wherever they can.
 The need for young women toda, is imperative. Not only is there a short age of stenographers sin all govern ment departments at Washington, but private firms all over the country must have stenographers and office help to fill the gaps caused by the wal.

Nickniack Cave.

Nlckaiack was once the name of an important Cherokee town on the bank of the Tennessee river. The Chero- kees. who had aided the British in the Revolutionary war and had been well paid for their assistance, clustered their wigwams at this point about 17SO-S2. and the village was known as one of the "Chickamauga towns" The meaning of the name is now lost, though it was probably of Cherokee origin, as it occurs in the annals of the tribe as mans name. This name is also given to a creek and to very remarkable cave, the latter being situ- ated very near that point of the south- ern boundary of Tennessee where 1t is intersected by the line separating the states of Alabama and Georgia. Nick ajack cave, though but little known, Is one of the wonderful caves of the world, being of even more imposing proportions than the Mammoth cave of Kentucky.-ArgOnaut

THE PENALTY

Many Alaska People Are Beginning
 To Fell the Strain

The heavy tax of oyerwOrk - the extra strain upon the back so neces- sary to many trades and occupa- ticns is hard on the kidneys. The kidneys begain to fail in their work and the poisonous matter collects in the system. If your work seems hard for you, if you seem tired and listless, if you notice sediment in the urine, unnatural color or irregu- lar passages and seem to be running down without apparent cause, be- gin at once with Doan's Kidney Pills, the remedy that has proven 80 beneficial to so many residents oi this vicinity. It has brought strength to the backs of thousands of working men and women.
 Mrs. Margaret A. Nesary, 151S Twenty-first Ave, S., Seattle, Wash. says: 'I' worked too harl had dull, sickening pains across my loins and hips. My whole system was affected and made me feel poor ly in every way. Spells of dizzi- ness came on and had Q glimmering before my eyes at times. My kid neys were irregular in action and the passages were distressing. Doap's Kidney Pills greatly benefited me. In spite of my advanced age, am active and do all my own housework."
 Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Deans Kidney Pills-the same that Mr. Nemsary had. Foster-Mil' hurn q: Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

ANCIENT ANIMAL GIANTS.
Monster Sloths That Were as Large ss
 a Rhinoeeros.

In an account of the fossils Of giant animals of Argentina to be seen in the Museum of La Plata the Rev. J. A. Zahm, author of "Through South Amer ica,s Southland" calls special attention to the mylodon, a ground sloth as large as a rhinoeerOs and related to the megatherium that flourished thou- sands of years ago.
 The mylodon may have lived within comparatively recent times. Only a few years ago Nordenskjold discover ed in a cave In southwestern Patago- mia a large piece of well preserved skin covered with greenish brown hair and small bony knobs that was recog- nized as the skin of the mylodon.
 There Is good reason to believe that the mvlodon was still browsing in the forests of Patagonia as late as fifty years ago. Indeed, there are natural ists who contend that 1t Is still living fin some of the caves of southern Chile.
 So strong was the conviction that as late as 1902 an expedition started from England the chief object of which was to search for living mylodon, and, although 1t failed to find one, there are men of science who continue to believe that living mylodon will yet be found somewhere in the forest depths of southern Chile or Argentina.

The tax law of 1915, which su- perceded that of 1913, provided for cepts a case on king, sockeye or red salmon, 2 cents a case on med ium reds and l cent case on all others. besides the saltery, fish trap and gill net taxes.
 Estimates of the income from the tax to the territory place the revenue from the mines at about $250.O 600 per year, with $175,OOO from the fisheries and about $75,0OO from all other business and manu- featuring plants taxable under the territorial law.
 The appeal of the cases from the district court of the First DiVt- sion of Alaska to the circuit court or appeals at San Francisco was taken by John Cobb, territorial counsel, last year. The cases were continued and fought out in the supreme court by George B. Grigs- by, attorney-general elect and pres ent counsel for the territory.

 PROGRESSING

Professor Schel, head of the Government school at Metlakahtla paid Ketchikan a visit for the first time since coming to Alaska last September. He arrived this morning aboard the Good TidingS, niloted by Reverend Edward Mars den and will leave sometime this afternoon.
 Professor Sehell, says the Ketchi- kan Progressive-Miner paid a de- lightful visit to this paper recently, telling of the many new improve ments in the little village within the last two weeks. The water works have now been extended all oyer the town, the men contribut- ing their labor free of the mutual benefit of all the townspeople, he stated.
 The Metlakahtla Commercial con- pany, which was organized last year has added some new capital and will commence work on a new building to be erected in the near future, and which win be opened as a de- partmental store, run by the com pany.
 Preparations are under way, MT. schell stated, for the big annual fair, given by Klawock, Hydaburg and Metlakahtla. which will be held in Metlakahtla on February 15.
 When asked as to his opinion of Alaska, Mir. Schell answered that this was his first trip to Alaska and he was very fayorably impress ed. MT. Schel was employed by the government in the schools of the Philippine Islands for six years prior to his coming north.
 Professor Schell is assisted by both his wife and daughter at the school as well a the Misses Dan ford and Vibrant and MT. Gel.

SETTLING A RATHER.
Prairie Dogs Did the Job We'll by sury'
 ing Him Alive.

tug ElAti FNiNNs
 It would not seem very easy thing to bury a snake alive, but that Is what an, Oklahoma man saw some prairie dogs do.
 He was resting under tree when be noticed a commodon among some prairie dogs near him. They would run up to certain spot, peep at something and then scamper back. Looking more closely. he saw fifteen to twenty dogs about a rattlesnake. which presently went into one of the dogs holes.
 No sooner had 1t disappeared than the little fellows began to push in dirt, evidently to fill up the hole. By the time they had pretty well covered the entrance the snake stuck his head up through the dirt, and every dog scam pered off to a safe distance, all the time barking.
 The snake crawled to another hole about a rod distant and wentin. Then forward came the dogs, again, and all went to work to push up earth to the hole. This time they succeeded and completely covered the entrance, This done, they proceeded to beat the earth down, employing their noses for this purpose. When they had rendered the earth quite hard they went away. The observer examined their work and was surprised to find that they had packed the earth in solid with their noses and had sealed the snake inside.-Los An A - geles Times.

From that shout or rudi- mentary emotional utterance has pro ceeded by a kindred evolution the whole art of vocal music down to the modern opera or oratoriO.

How Flyina Fish Fly.

The popular notion that flying fish beat their wings" is a mistake. It ap- pears that the wings are not true or gans of flight. but rather play the part of a parachute or an aerOplane. The whole motive power is supplied by the tail. which acts as q propeller, and the vibration or Quivering of the wings in the air currents and their occasional shift of inclination are not phenomena connected with the propulsion of the fish in its aerial flight.
