THOUGHTS TO THINK
ABOUT

The jealous man never judges
his equals as praise-worthy; he
begrudges the successes of his
superiors. - ...
Your love is lame when you
willingly listen to fellow voic-

other and you yourself become
the message-bearer.
In our thinking we must start
from a fixed center or else no
circumference can be found
love created all and Is the cen.
trail power that carries our SYM
pathy everywhere.
When there comes a lull in
your business and customers do
not come as frequently as you
would wish, just remember that
you have a chance to remedy the
condition using Palladium

DON'T RISK NEGLECT.

Don't neglect a constant back ache, sharp, darting pains or urin- ary disorders. The danger of dropsy or Bright disease is too serious to ignore. Use Doan's Kidney Pills as have others all over the world.
 Andrew Martin, 721 F. Street, Sacramento, Calf, says: Expos ure to dampness and bad weather at my work brought on kidney trouble years ago A steady ache in the small of my back caused me a great deal of suffering. My kidneys acted too often and that broke up my rest at night My back was so weak and painful I could hardly stoop over to pick up anything and it was just as hard to straighten again. Doan's Kidney Pills gave me more help than I had received from any other med icine" Statement given Jan. 15, 1916.)

SAYS AUSTRIA IS
 GROWING DISTRUSTFUL

LONDON, Dec. 26-A Paris cable from Charles II. Grasty claims that Austria is disappointed over the ltal- ian results and is growing more dis trustful of Germany. Austria's am- bitions are local and limited, while Germany's are worldwide. Austria is beginning to feel that Germany so dominates the situation that in peace terms it will treat Austria with scant consideration. Emperor Charles is very restless and the feeling of the people is deeply distrustful of their Prussian allies.

EFFECT OF SHELL SHOCK
 NULLIFIED BY PARROTS

PARIS, Dec 26-Polly, the we'll known parrot, has at last come into her own. French specialists have discovered Polly has a most extraordinary pathological effect upon soldiers suffering from shell shock, especially those who have lost their voice.
 Parrots are now introduced into special hospitals and wards where shell shock patients are undergoing treatment.
 Not only does the appearance of Polly furnish amusement-which in itself has a curative value-but Pol ly heroically attempts to talk and excite in patients desire to do the same thing.

 The Native Presbyterian Church was crowded almost to suffocation last evening during the program given by the choir and school chil- dren, cantata staged and managed by Mrs. Orsen and Frank Mercer. For two weeks past these faithful workers and their assistants have been drilling the children at school and church, while other Native brains and fingers designed and fash toned the costuems worn on the stage. which gave a touch of reality to the Bible scenes depicted. A beau tifully decorated tree occupied one end of the platform, but many of the costly presents so lavishly be- slowed by Native parents upon their little ones at Christmas time were missing this year. The cause was apparent when Mrs. Orsen explained in English that on account of the orphans in Europe, the demands of the Red Cross, and the injunctions of the Food Conservation commit tee the Natives of Juneau had de cided to refrain from all excess and useless waste at Christmas time, and so enable themselves to do some little bit toward helping the govern ment Mir Mercer, leader of the Ma tive choir, then explained the same in the Native language, and all heads nodded approval; after which gifts were distributed.

 Dr. and Mrs Borland, who arrived on the Jefferson and are now regis tered at the Castineau, were dinner guests at the Government Hospital on Christmas Day. Dr. Borland lays claim to the title of ''sourdough" and undoubtedly has a right to that distinction having wintered at forty eight below on the Boring coast, passed many nights in bear skin bag in the soft side of a snowdrift on the wild and treeless tundra. Dr. Borland is the proud possessor of dog team of genuine wolf hounds, now wintering at Kanakan- ak. which he declares to be the fin est team in Alaska.

ditions so oncrous as to be re- pugnant to the liberal spirit of the Congressional laws On the other hand. the State may not by it's leg islation dispense with the perform ance of the conditions imposed by the national law, nor relieve the lo- cator from the obligation of per forming in good faith those acts which are declared by it to be essential to the maintenance and perpetuation of the estate acquired by location. Within these limits the State may lcgislate.'
 What is the ground upon which the validity of these supplementary regulations prescribed by State is challenged: It is insisted that the disposal of the public lands is an act of legislative power, and that it is not within the competency of q legislature to delegate to an other body the exercise of it's pow er that Congress alone has the right to dispose of the public lands, and cannot transfer it's au- thority to any state legislature or other body The authority of Con gress over the public lands is granted by section 3, article ". of the Constitution which provides that the Congress shall have power to dispose Of and make all needful rules and regulations respecting the Territory CT other property belong ing 10 the United States" In other words, Congress is the body to which is given the power to determine the conditions upon which the public lands shall be disposed of The Nation is an owner, and has made Congress the principal agent to dis pose of its property.
 In harmony with the views thus ex pressed, l am of opinion that the pro visions of the Alaska Statute, whic is clearly inconsistent with and repug nant to the joint resolution of Octobe ,, 1917, and by said resolution suspend ed for the years 1917 and 1918, and tha the resolution applies to all unperfecte mining claims in Alaska. except oi claims.

"CRIMEAN SONNETS"
HAVE u. s. PREMIERE
Moniuszko's Symphonic Poem Proves
Bright But, Not Unusual
Work

The first performance in the United
States of "Sonnets from the Crimea." Moni-
uszkos symphonic poem for orchestra and
chorus, must either have exerted a strong
esthetic spell last night, or the plight Of
war-trampled Poland touched the hearts OF
many persons. The academy held a big
audience, in spite OF a counter-musical at
traction. 1t is to be hoped that the pro-
ceeds were large, for of the interested kind
liness Of the benefit There could be no ques-
ton.
In fact; 1t may be asked whether the i'm
pulse back of the concert was not more
fruitful and distinguished than the actual
work that was given. Much water has
flowed under the bridges OF melody since
1888. and. undoubtedly, some Of II has
washed away bit OF the composers repu-
tation. He hardly seems the red radical
described in the program notes. But the
form of the symphony Is at least appealing
and the manner In which IL was done mer
tied prompt and open praise The chorus in
especial the sopranos and altos, sang with
brilliant volume; the mems choirs were
scarcely less bright in tone, and 1t was well
