SEWARD, ALASKA, FRIDAY, JANUARY l9, 1917

The people of Shushanna have asked the Gateway to publish protest in their behalf against the abandonment of the mail service to that camp and the request gladly granted They were unable to believe at first that the postal authorities could have left them without mail but the information has been confirmed that the government will send no more mail in there The posotice people say that only some thirty people live in the Shushanna district this winter and that a mail service WOULD NOT PAY.
 With all respect to the postal authorities 1t might be said that this is worse than no excuse at a The men ot the ShuShanna are trying to deyeOpe a addition to the domain of Uncle Sam and trying to deveope 1t under the most serious difficulties TT DOES NOT PAY those men as a rule to dig and Saye that they might incident ally add to the wealth of the nation They much employees of the nation as the who draw salaries in any governmental department and than any others they are entitled to the benefits of their fine citizenship and should not be made the victims of penous policy
 Up in the Yukon Territory the Canadian government gives free transportation river boats to propecorS that aid might be rendered opening up the country and is the United States to be thought less entepSng than the Dominion?
 The government should not count the men of Shu- shaa It should rather take into account the men they are and the good work they are accomplishing Give them their mail by all means Uncle Sam. You owe them that and more, but certainly nothing less.

| always give them presents, since God
hasn't blessed ME with children Of my
own. Come, the car is at the door,"
Outside shop window In the busiest
street Of the city stood little Lena
Swift. Around her shoulders she wore
tattered shawl, and her hands were
snuggled under 1t to prevent them
from freezing. She stood with her
face pressed close to the glass.
"My," she said half aloud, "ain't it
cold for the end of November, and
oh, amt that a beautiful doll. won
der whether Santa will think of me
this year,
Lena shivered with cold, and big
tears came to her eyes as she went on
musing. HE amt never come since
mother died. Aunt Rosie says she has
no money for nonsense and such, and
she says there amt no Santa Claus
nOhOw."
"Move on little one" said q police
man coming up to Lena and tapping
her shoulder with his club. Lena ran
of half fearfully half reluctantly, and
at that moment spied a large Santa
Claus who stood on the opposite cor
ner ringing bell and asking the pas
sersby to drop coin in the bowl for
q Christmas dinner that would be Civ
en- on the twenty-fifth of December at
the Wayfarers' lodge.
The child made a dash across the
street to tell Santa Claus what she
wanted him to put In her stocking
when she received terrific blow from
behind. Then 1t seemed as though she
were falling-falling- g-down-down.
Then a pair of strong arms lifted her
and she heard a soft voice which
seemed to come from a great distance
say-"Smith, is she much hurt? Poor
little puss."
Lena awoke next morning and found
herself in soft white bed in a room
so beautiful that her first thought
was II must be dead and this sure is
heaven" A white-capped nurse bent
over her.
She tried to glance about, but the
pain shot through her head and made
her close her eyes.
Then Lena experienced something
that she had not felt since her mother
had died-a caressing touch and a
kiss.
Lena had been badly hurt and it
took several weeks for her to get even
well enough to sit up In bed. Christ
mas morning dawned cold and clear,
and the child was allowed to see what
Santa had brought her.
At the foot Of her bed stood a gor-
geous Christmas tree, such as she had
often seen in the great toyshops, but
never in the widest flights Of her
fancy dreamed of possessing On the
floor beside the tree, In a tiny little
wicker chair, sat the big doll with

in the shop window. Then the beau

SENSATION OF THE
YEAR IN MEDICINE
On SALE HERE
Calotabs, the New Calomel Tablet
That Does Not Gripe, Nauseate Nor
Salivate, Proves An Interesting
Surprise to Local Druggits,

The horrors of Saturday night
Caomel-taking are thing of the past.
According to local druggists, the new
de-nauseated calomel tablet is a
grand success, the triumph of mod
ern pharmacy. Not the slightest
danger or unpleasantness attends it's
use and yet it exhibits all of the liver
cleansing qualities of the old-style
calomel.
There can be no doubt that calomel
is the most valuable and universally
useful of all medicines and now that
its Objectionable qualities have been
removed its popularity will have no
bounds. One tablet on the tongue at
bedtime, a swallow of water, no taste
or unpleasantness whatever. The next
morning you are feeling fine, liver
clean, splendid appetite. Eat what
you please-no danger. In ordering
the new de-nauseated calomel tablets
ask for "alotabs" Sold only in
original and sealed packages contain
ing twenty doses, price thirty five
cents. Your druggist has authority
to refund your money if you are not
perfectly delighted with Calotabs.-
