NO PHYSICIAN IN RUBY

There is now no physician in Ru- hv and so far as we have been able to learn no steps have yet been taken towards inducing one to To- cate here.
 While the residents Of this dis district apear to enjoy exceptionally good health, yet accidents do hap pen and when the services of a physician are needed it might easi- " result fatally for the patient to 5a obliged to send or go to Tanana or Nulato for medical treatment.
 The Government maintains hospi- tals at various points On the Yu- kon River at which are stationed Government physicians whose duties are the medical care of the natives O. that vicinity.
 If the Government could be in duced to establish such an hospital in Ruby the private practice of the physician in charge, added to the salary paid him by the Government would make the position attractive enough to be sought after by a physician of experience and ability and enable both the native wards os the government and the private citizens of this community to re- ceive first class medical treatment wlen needed.
 Let us delay no longer in an eff fort to bring this about. Now it is up to the residents of this dds trict themselves to get busy and get the matter settled before the ckse of navigation. We have to let the government understand that about 500 white citizens and about 300 natives reside in this district and that the nearest psysician is located about 200 miles away. -Ru tY Record Citizen.

THE PLAINS CALL

I must ride out on the plains again. With a horse 'twixt knee and
 knee, Where the wolves howl and the
 winds growl,
 And the clouds drift fast OCT me; I must ride out on the plains once
 morn, On the Westland's broad and level
 floor. I must ride forth on the plains at omrn, Were the cactus flowers are, And the lark calls, and the white
 walls
 or the mountain loom afar; I must ride out, when breaks the Ridr wnere the gods of outdoors
 play. I must ride out on the plains at
 night,
 And smell the dew wet sage, When the moon glows, and the late
 suows
 GIeam like a books white page; ] must ride out on the plains again. And quit this haunt of pygmy men.

PRIZE WINNING
 LIVE LETTER

This, the copy of a letter which wes written by young lady to one of the soldiers of the post, and en- closed for mailing n one of the business envelopes of the office where she is employed. The writ CT forgetting that the postage was three cents instead of two put a two-cent stamp on the letter and 1t was returned to the office for more postage. We regret that they open- ed it, but as it is considered to be a masterpiece in it's class they requested that We reprint it with the writers consent:
 You ask me to forgive you. What can you ever do, sweetheart, which for one moment could make me forget what you are to me, or that love which has made earth heaven, and my life 8 joy? Have l to for give the sun for lurking behind the clouds when he has shone OF my days and made them golden; or shall I welcome him the less when he comes forth to warm me again? Beloved, if I have aught to forgive it is that you, I hold, have asked the question. I have no desire to know anything, except that you have loved me and love me still My faith is unquestioning, for have I not crowned you king, and the king can do no wrong? These eyes of mine, which closed beneath your kisses, are sightless until your lips uneal them. My ears Ire deat except to the magic call or the voice of my beloved. and my heart has ceased to beat until 1t can throb on yours. I am sleeping and shall awaken but at the sound of your footsteps"

THE GERMAN LANGUAGE STUFF
 By Anthony Euwera

About this German language stuff 'Twould seem we've had about
 enough
 Of German things somehow ot late Eh what? Nicht vshr? At any rate We've shown we can exist quite free Or all things made in Germany, Save one, nor yet the least among Ths emblem of the German tongue And too, a most expressive one' This language of the modern Hun. All-eloquent of lust and rape, Each diabolic ogre-shape, That helps foul dam could breed
 and spawn, Our sickened eyes must look upon. Red death and carnage, torch and blaze, You know them backwards, eY'ry phrase!
 The German language! Such l say Is what that language means today. The German language, youngsters
 taught
 From German textbooks, seeped and
 fraught
 Wit.. Kaiser-love, and from such
 youth
 We draw our cOuntry's men for
 sooth!
 Ano Deutcher dailies, those that fee Our CITIZENS who cannot read Our words, showed down our throats
 We frOwn Ard gulp, and let the thing go down But hold" you say, why confis-
 cate
 From thousands loyal to our state Thts vital thing, withdraw perforce Their one sole coin of intercourse?" We'll meaning friend, this is our
 land,
 Nor shan we trust a secondhand Ieutonic courier with such A cause as we've espoused-not
 much! If some old Fritz within our gates Cannot read plain United States, Tn B he should be content to choose Some younger Fritz to read the
 news. Should young Fritz likewise Daffled
 be, Well then it's time they both agree To get their notions rearranged' And have their German coinage
 changed, If they'd enjoy that blissful state Meath their new found protector
 ate.
 We've got our national bird, we've
 got ..,| Our flag, our capitOl-why not Have our court language-plain un-
 mixed Good AnglO-Saxon-firmly fixed. Our land may be melting-pot, ,. Our lingo somewhat polyglot, But since this tragic world event, We've found there's one ingredient Grown so distasteful, odious, Exhalant Of such leprous 6ross, That we cannot afford to See t, Our national life in jeopardy. Then let us not caiole with chance, Too long, we've bowed to circum-
 stance, No longer dupes, we've had enough Let's end this German language
 stuff!

 An Effective Cure.
 If you see a woman or a man with lux uriant glossy hair, you may be sure nei- ther has dandruff to amount to anything. In nearly every case where women and men have thin brittle hair. they owe It to dandruff. There are hundreds Of prep arations that "claim" to cure dandrun' but not one but Newbro's Herpicide tells you that dandruff Is the result of germ 6urrowing into the scalp, and that per manent cure of dandruff and its conse- quent falling and badness, can only be had by killing the germ; and there is no other preparation that will destroy that germ but Newbro's Herpicide.

Does Your Child Save? Start Him
Or Her on the Right Road to Thrift

five cents week. One boy saved
IS money until he had a quarter
and then spent it fer a much wanted
toy The other boy spent his as soon
as he got it but began to realize his
folly when he saw the other boys
"daudy toN9
Children should be encouraged to
keep accounts as soon as possible. one
boy Of eight whose allowance is ten
cents q week showed me his crude lit
tie account hhich leads his article. It,
shows the spirit of saving.
The high school girl who handles
.carrare and lunch money for the first
time usually does not know how to-
manage This is not her fault exact
ly, because if she had been used to
managing even a small allowance she
would be better prepared to handle
her larger allowance
More than one widow whose hus
band has paid all bills willingly, but
never given her an allowance, often
makes very foolish investments or eX-
uaraganly disposes Of his few
thousand dollars insurance, because to
her unframed in percentages and
values a few thousand dollars seems
q huge ineXhaustble sum-
OF course children are like grown
Iups to the extent that they think much
more OF money that they earn than
@ that which is given them.
Each housewife might put a price
on the performance Of some simple
household duty, and thus allow the
ctild to earn his allowance. Where
his does not seem advisable the COM
Uniting to memory of a beautiful poem
Or The solving Of a reasonably hard
mathematical problem might be re-
Iwarded.
A successful woman writer Of fic-
ton told me she was very lazy as
girl Of high school age. Her clever
mother put a price OF twenty-five cent
as the reward for eaeh thousand-word
story cleyerly and neatly written
"And because I wanted a silk petit
coat which cost five dollars, and l
had no other way of getting it, just
had to write"
or course no child should be en-
couraged to refuse to be helpful or
obliging unless he is paid. But there
is happy medium and The wise par
ent begins the childs financial train
ing early by granting an allowance.
