says, &c it need not be-! We should
cultivate love of health, sense of
responsibility for the care of our bodies.
Do not allow the machinery Of the body

Golden Medical Discovery, to be had at
most drug stores in tablet or liquid
form, tablets sixty cents vial, COM
posed of native herbs. This puts the
stomach and liver in proper condition.
You may be plodding along, no spring,

PAN BANlSHED
 AT NENANA NOW

The devotees of pan" in Nenana are feeling rather glum over the fact that their favorite pastime has been denied them The information regarding the closing of the game was brought to Fairbanks by a re cent arrival. who stated that the players there had overstepped the intention of the game by going stronger than was intended by the house rules and that orders had been given to close the game in all pool halls. cigar stores and recr4a tion parlors.
 The familiar cry of the player who picks a "camoka" or a key card" will be thing of the past. as will the kick of the one who is being "piuted" or bumped" ol slowed" when he holds a fast hand It is stated that pinochle league will be formed there in the near future

MANY LAUNCHES
 WILL OPERATE

The usual activities of the mos- quito fleet will soon be resumed. For the past several days the own CTS of the launches comprising the fleet have been making preparations for the seasons work and outlining their routes.
 While the list is incomplete, the following names of the launches, with their routes and owners, is given:
 Galatea, Tolovana-George Moody.
 Victory. NenanaCF. A. Douse.
 Peerless. Nenana-Joe Johnson.
 Louise, Nenana-H. P. Karstens.
 There is also the mail launch own. ed by Carl White which was on the Tolovana run last year and will be so employed this year. There will be few more launches put in com mission later in the year on these runs. and from all appearances there will be a demand for their services.

WHEATLESS DAY
 MADE OPTIONAL
 PRIVATE HOMES

A recent bulletin received from the office Of the United States food administration at Juneau bearing oil the question of the observance of the wheatless meals and days has the following to say:
 While private homes will not be required to observe wheatless meals and days. they will be required to cut wheat consumption to about one half of normal If this can be done without entirely giving up wheat at any meal, the food administration will consider that it's program is being followed strictly to the letter. It is urging, however, that those whose circumstances and require ments permit, effect an even greater reduction. It believes that the i'm. perative necessity for this measure will be we'll understood and that its request will receive ready response from the people of America.
 The allowance of one and one half pounds of wheat flour per per son pUr week is considered reason able. Wheatless days and meals must be strictly observed by all public eating places. The full light of publicity will be turned upon es- tablishments violating this urgent re- quest of the food administration. Federal food administrators have been given telegraphic orders to en- force the program by rigid inspec- tion and investigation. Where viola. tions are reported, the administra- tors are instructed to hold hearings which must be open to the public and to the press. Virtually this means that no violator. no matter what the extenuating circumstances, will be shielded by having his name withheld from the newspapers. Where violations are proved, the admins trators are urged to follow immedi- ately with punitive measures, the nature of which will be determined in consultation with the authorities at Washington.

STATION BEEN CAPTURED
 BY B0LSHEVlKIS

CONSTANTINOPLE, May 17.-Ad- vices received here today state that the Bolsheviki troops, reinforced from Turkestan and Astrakhan, have recaptured the port of Baku on the Caspian sea.
 Baku is strongly fortified port and was formerly the chief Russian naval station on the Caspian sea. It is in the center of the most pro- ductive petroleum fields in the world, there being over 1,500 wells in this district connected by pipe line with the refineries.
 The Bolsheviki troops crossed the sea on Russian gunboats. After land ing they experienced no difficulty in capturing the port. The Musselmen who were stationed there were with out any adequate means of defense and offered no resistance to the raid- ing forces. The defenders were forced to abandon the town to the Bolshevikis. there being no other re- course left them.
 The Russians are vigorously pur- suing the fleeing Musselmen and continuing their attacks upon them. The port is now entirely in the hands of the Russian forces.

FLOOD
 WAS GOOD ONE

From the reports of recent ar rivals from Nenana, the flood which existed there during the high water was the worst seen there in many years. The main street of the town was covered with such a depth of water that 1t was possible for a launch to make it's way to one of the hotels to receive a load of pas. sengers for Fairbanks.
 The commission employees had to be ferried to the mess house in. or der to get their meals. Most of the commission warehouses were in a flooded condition, but as their con- tents had been removed no damage was done.
 Several of the pool halls and rec reation places had to close down on account of water being on the floors of the establishments.
 Those who enjoyed fishing took advantage of the opportunity and used their tackle. One person is re- ported as having caught two white fish by angling from the window of one of the hotels. This sounds fishy, but 1t may be true.

HAS OBNOXIOUS
 NAME CHANGED

SALINAS, May 16-After being subjected to great humiliation ever since America entered the war, be- cause of the war Carl Bernard Det- riech Kaiser today petitioned the su- perior court of Monterey county to have his name changed to Carl Der nard Ali.
 The reasons given in the petition for the change of name are as fol- lows: The United States is at war with the imperial government of Germany, whose ruler is known as the kaiser; which name is synony- nous with autocracy. which is the opposite of democracy; cruelty, which is opposite to humanity; barbarian, which has no respect for civilization: Prussian militarism, which hates Christianity.
 The petitioner recites that he is a native born American citizen. having been born in Nebraska, and believes In all the principles of the U. S. government; that daily he is sub jected to great humiliation by peo- pie whom he meets because of the name of his ancestors, but changed to Kaiser by German customs over which he had no voice.

LADY BALTIMORE
 PARTY MAY 25TH

Much conjecture has already been aroused as to who Lady Baltimore, who will entertain the public at the Masonic Temple on the afternoon of Saturday. May 25. really is. The lady Is we'll known as a hostess in Fairbanks. and her gracious recep- tion of the guests on that day will be the public's answer.
 The hours of from two to five in the afternoon will be pleasantly passed with bridge playing and in knitting by those who do not care for cards. A nominal charge of fifty cents for adults and twenty five cents for children will be charg- ed as admission. whether those at tending are players or knitters. The whole proceeds will go to help fill the 3S.000 quota asked of Fairbanks in the present Red Cross drive. The expense account will be materially lessened by the generous donation of the Masons in giving the Temple free of charge for this occasion.

ARMY CAPTAIN
 DISCUSSES AS
 ENLISTED MAN

SAN DIEGO. Cal, May 17.--Capt Richard F. King, of the 115th Utah Field Artillery, stationed at Camp Kearny, who has been missing since last December, has been apprehended in France in the disguise of an en- listed man.
 Capt King was missed from his company early last December, and his whereabouts were a mystery to his comrades until they were noti- fled today that he was being re. turned to the United States after being arrested on the western front in the guise of common soldier.
 Capt King had often expressed the hope that he would be immedi- ately sent into active service against the Germans, and it was for this purpose that he deserted his com. mand at Camp kearny. After leav- ing his post, he proceeded to Camp Grant, Illinois, where he succeeded in enlisting as private in an in. fantry company. He had good luck and was included in a unit that was ordered from Camp Grant to join Pershing's forces.
 A diligent search for the past few months having failed to show any clew as to the missing captains whereabouts, he was given up as being one of the many unsolved dis appearances. Although Capt King enlisted in the Camp Grant contin. gent under an assumed name to forestall any likelihood of his being recognized, he had the misfortune to run into private in France who had previously known him.
 The private, knowing that search had been instituted for the captain. immediately informed his superior of ficer that Captain King was a mem Der of his company. King was then taken into custody by the military officials and was ordered to be re- turned to the United States imme- diately.
 It Is not stated what disposition will be made of his case, but owing to the fact that his motive for talk ing leave was in order to serve his country on the battle line. it is prob able that he will not be severely punished.

COLEMAN WITH
 ENGINEER CORPS

In the last mail a letter was re- ceived by G. A. Coleman from Fort Mcdowell. written by Ed Coleman, who, 1t will be remembered. left for the Outside some time ago for the purpose of enlisting.
 Coleman states that he has joined the engineering corps and has been stationed at Fort Mcdowell for some time, but expects in the near future to be transferred to Fort Myers. Virginia. This is the first word to be received in some time regarding the movements of the young man. and no doubt will be interesting news to his acquaintances here.
