French Must Regain Provinces.


 Paris, Sept. 1S.-The French min isterial declaration was read by Fro lessor Paul .Painleve, the new premier, in the chamber of deputies this af- terncon. It reaffirms the determln- ation of France to continue the war until the disannexation of Alsace and Lorraine from Germany is assured along with reparation for the dam ages caused by the Germans.
 Alluding to the efforts made by the Germans to weaken the moral forces of the country, the declara tions says that in cases already pelne investigated, and those that may here after receive inquiry, justice will TOT low it's course without hesitation ol weakness and without taking any account whatever of the lersonallt ties involved.
 "Whoever makes himself an ac- complice of the enemy" says the dec laration, must suffer the rigor ol the law"

A WEATHER CONTRAST

Today the sky is clear and blue; last week it was dull and gray with a look about it that foretold rain. Today under the clear, blue sky the air is sharp and exhilarat- ing, the mountains shine and glis- ten; then under the dull, gray sky the air was dense and heavy, the mountains looked as if wrap ped in a visible yet invisible blank ct.
 Not only were the mountains wrapped in invisible blankets of mist but the whole town seemed to be weary. Even tha children going to and from school seemed to lose their energy; today people are walking along briskly without the least sign of Yeariness.
 School children do not loiter on the way home from school when Jack Frost is about like a police man saying, "ste1 along lively"

WHAT ABOUT Tq

What about the suggestion we made a short time ago of electing four women on the council this year-the Mayor end three on the council?
 Of late and since we made the suggestion, several men have signi- tiea their approval of the proposi- ticu, They are all agreed that 1t would be fair. The men have had a long shift at the wheel of the municipal ship and have succeeded in steering 1t clear of all dangerous snags; now that the sailing is smooth, let our women steer a while. Really if we keep at the wheel, our women folks may think we believe them mentally inferior. It dots not take much brawn to run the affairs of a municipality like ours. A little commC1 sense is all that which Is required. Sure ly no man can say that our wo- men folks are less intelligent than he is. They may lack experience; but if a woman can manage a home economically she can manage the affairs of municipality. Is seems to us as though the idea should be enoouraged.-Ketehtkan Progressive Miner.

A CONTRAST

Slowly the clock struck eight. Billy listened and then jumped out of bed in hurry, for this was Thanksgiving Day. Down to breakfast he hurried but could he eaty Not when his little play mate and father aud mother were coming for dinner! He was too eN cited to eat. Being forced to re- main at the table he fused around, and the minute he was thru rushed into the kitchen. There he saw the turkey awaiting to be roasted. "ch, cooky, cook give me a drum stick. want drumstick. "Run aIcng and play. ] don't want to be bothered with you" Sulkily he went to one corner and amused himseR by pulling the last hair on th end of the cats tail. Finding the cat not enoying himself as much as he did, he fled for protec- ton. Presently he discovered his sister rolling out pie crust. will you make me little pie, all my own, Doris?" "Oh, I'll see. No I haven't enough crust; no you can't eat any dough child. Youll be sick before dinner as well as after" So passed the morning.
 It was six o'clock. The com pany had come and gone. Billy, much sudued, sad in the big arm chair befora the fire. "Mom," he said, do you think Jimmy feels the same way I do?" ''Mom' laugh led. Just then Doris appeared in the door with mischief in her eyes. Billy, did make pie, don't you want it?" ''No, go away and leave me alone. l don't want any more pie for whole month.
 "Goodness you're a funny boy and don't believe you, but we'll see.' And then Billy hooded off tS sleep. .-

The back aches at times with a dull, indescribable feelings making you weary and restless; piercing pains shoot across the region of the kidneys, and again the loins are So lame that tN stoop is agony. No use 70 rub or apply plaster to the back F the kidneys are waek. You cannot reach the cause. Alaskan residents would do we'll to profit by the following example.

There was a lump about the size Hf a dollar over each of my kidneys and this made my back so tender and sore that l could hardly bear to have my clothes touch me. At night I could scarcely turn in bed and mornings was so lame and sore that I could hardly get around. These troubles were brought on by cold settling in my kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills cured me-"
