that spells success.
Antiques, as 1 said, have fitted in
well with a lunch room in my ex-
perience. We have had all sorts of
interesting old things here, but there
is one thing 1 have always been par
ticular about, and that is not TO buy
them promiscuously; l have taken
particular care to know the whole
history OF everything I have, and
just how it came to me. A great
many Of the things have been hand
ed down in my own family. We have
made quite a speciality of old prints
and steel engravings. We put them
up on our walls, but il is hard to
keep them, for some one always
comes along and wants to buy some
we have IL well placed. a collector
of old pewter came in one day, dis
covered that we had a pewter tank
ard that had belonged to Gen. Israel
Putnam. bought it at once and car
ried It off.
Colonial antiques have always
been favorites. We have had some
beautiful old mahogany furniture,
secretaries and grandfathers' clocks,
candelsticks and candelabras and
china. Quite often we have been
called upon to supply decorations
for colonial houses on country es-
tates. At one time. we had rare
open-carved rosewood furniture that
sold very readily. And once we had
lace veil that had belonged to the
Empress Eugene, on exhibition
with a collection of lovely old laces.
Oh, yes, we have had plenty of
beautiful foreign things, although
we have rather specialized in our
own colonial treasures, for which
there has long been a great demand.
AT one time, we found that
samovars were in high favor. We
had ever so many of those and used
them right here in the lunch room,
when people would come in for aft
ernoon parties. They were always
artistic and some had unusually

American women today are re-
spending so eagerly 10 the back-to-

Every fashion returns sooner or
later, and now walnut furniture is
coming in again. Not the ornate
and carved walnut horrors of early
Victorian days. however, but simple,
beautiful pieces OF this really fine
wood in Queen Anne design. A
dining room set of burl walnut in
Queen Anne pattern retails for $500
which proves how fashionable and
exclusive walnut has become.

over again that they are successful
at making things grow; they can
raise vegetables. as we'll as flowers.
Since the farmers complain that
men will not stay on the land 10
farm IT, why should not the women
who are interested in the work take
il up? They would reclaim a great
deal OF land. now just going TO
waste, and would help bring down
the cost Of living by increasing the
crops. Moreover, they would see 20
IL that the produce which formerly
the farmers were Obliged 70 seave in
the fields 10 spoil, because of lack OF
help 10 gather it and ship it 10 mar
ket, was no longer wasted. And
those fruits and vegetables that the
women could not get to market in
their raw state, they would probably
can and then send out in that style.
1t does really seem that the field OF
agriculture is big enough TO admit
all who are interested in il. We get
many enthusiastic letters from
mem bers OF our association, women
in various parts Of this country and
Canada, telling with enthusiasm of
what they are doing with their gar
deRs.
lone of our members has written
us of an interesting scheme which
she offers as her contribution TO the
Land Service league. She opens a
small fruit and poultry farm upon
which she proposes to establish a
school of agriculture and furnish
work for six women, a minimum Of
so hours a week, for which they will
be paid the regular rates of the
community, and also to give lectures
with practical applications on va
rious allied agricultural subjects"

NutrIment in ENGLISH Walnut.

The English walnut is an excellent
food. Its meat contains six times as
much nutriment as an equal amount
Of beefsteak. Doctors everywhere ad.
wise its use on account Of its great
food value, for its fattening and heat
ing qualities. Besides being a tasty
table and confectionery delicacy, it is
often used for pickles, catehup and pre-.
serves. In France many tons are made
into oil every year, furnishing a good
substitute for olive oil. In England II
is customary to eat the fresh nut meat
with wine. Experts maintain thai
there is no good reason why this couu
try should not raise at least enough
English wal1uts for our own needs
and even export a few million dollars
worth.

Fair Play Should Govern In All Cases Opinion of Both the Vets
 and the Drys
PROHIBITION ON JAN. 1
Saloon Interests Going Out of Business on First of Year and Not
 to Go to Law

That Juneau should vote wet" to- morrow seems to be the practically unanimous opinion of the business men of Juneau An Empire represen tative interviewed 9 or 30 of the leading bsuiness men of the city. Two dozen of them expressed themselves unqualifiedly in favor of continuing the saloons until January l, 1918, the date set by the Territorial Legisla ture for the inauguration of prohi bition, and accepted by Congress in the prohibition measure that was pas sed by it and based upon the result of the election that was held in Alaska last November A half dog en desired not to be quoted, but near ly all of them said that they person ally believed that fair play would be served by continuing the licenses tc sell liquor until the time specified ir the law submitting the question to a referendum and in the law of Con gress.
 The consensus of opinion seems | to be that insomuch the Legislature and Congress in the case of Alaska and the Legislatures of the various states have acted on the assumption that it would be fair to give the people engaged in the liquor traffic and those whose interests are in vOlved in any manner with it, notice in advance of the abolition of their hrrc rcin to oIi Cfy v,t to the proposed condition. The Leg islature and Congress have acted on the assumption that fair play would be served by giving them until January 1, 1918, to close out their business and adjust themselves to a changed condition, and the busi- ness people of Juneau think the peo- pie should recognize that date by vot- ing for the vets tomorrow
 All the saloon men of Juneau have stated through ads, and person ally to those who have put the ques- tion to them for the Empire, that they will go out of business on the first of next January or before that time in good faith. There will be no attempt they promise, to defeat the law or violate it's terms in the slightest degree.
 Behrends Views.
 A list of the business men who spoke for publication to an Empire representative and their statements follow:
 B. M. Behrends: "The entire Ter ritory will go dry on January 1st, and I am naturally in favor of letting the saloons run until that time. Clos ing them at this time would not only disarrange the affairs of the city but it would be very unfair to the saloon men of the city who are as clean bunch as can be found any where in the United States"
 s. P. Raymond, city councilman. "I am in favor of extending the le- cense of the saloons until January 1st, as everyone understood would
The Alaska daily empire., 1917-07-16
J. C. Mcbride.

J. c. Mcbride, of the c. w. Young company: The people of the Terri tory held an election and voted that we should go dry on January 1st, and think that is the time that prohibi- tion should go into effect"
 H. J. Fisher. of the c. w. Young company and the Juneau Commercial Club: eve voted that the Territory should go dry on the first of the year and there is no good reason that can see why we should vote on it again or why Juneou should go dry before that time
 H. T. Tripp, of the II. J. Raymond company: "The people voted on the proposition and I feel that the vote of the people should rule"
 George Burford: "We voted to close the saloons on January 1st and I feel that they should be given until that time to run"
