Is IT PROFITEERING

According to late reports thee is tentative plan on foot whereby the transportation com panies doing business in Alaska are to raise pas senger rates. Is such action justidable?
 Monday evening, business man in one of our neighboring towns. returning from visit to the states stated that he had to wait week inSeat tie before he could get passaoe fer his home. He further stated that he had learned at the various offices that there were nearly six hundred per sons whose names appeared on ihe waiting list for accommodation. Some of his personal and intimate friends were amrng them who told him that they could not possibly come up before the first part of April on account ol lack of accom- modation.
 From that. if the companies add another raise they cannot give the excuse of lack cf business. If they are doing all the business they can do, on the face of it, it would seem that the con templated raise is uniustifable and savors of profiteering.

IS YOUR LIFE A HARD ONE?

Do you people at home feel at times that this war has made your life pretty hard. Read what an American correspondent writes about one of cur boys who had beeen doing his duty.
 'In little field hospital west of Montdidier I stopped at the bedside of an American boy, one of those victims of the German mustard gas with which the Huns are making all their pre- sent gains. Hih eyes were matted with yellow pus and he could not see. His face was etrribly burned. His lips were swollen and purple. His whole body had been turned the color of an in dian, and portion of it looked like melted flesh as though it had been iquided.
 ''The fighting had been renewed all along the American lines, and German wounded had begun coming into our hospitals. said to this soldier
 The boys are getting their revenge for you fellows tonight He smiled through his scared lips and in voice so faint that had to bend down to listen, he gasped God! wish was back there with 'em.'
 Do you still think your life hard one?
 Help that boy and the hundreds of thousands of others doing their duty. Buy war saving stamps to the limit of your capacity.

PLENTY OF TIMBER

Looking down the list Of names nominated for candidates at the coming municipal election for the various offices in the local government, we find plenty of timber and apparently all good timber at that. Some of them have already prov ed their metal while in the service of the city. Others, while they have had no chance to de monstrate their qualifications along that line, they are men of unpeacheable character. How ever, it will be up to the yoters to say who they desire as their servants. Meanwhile it would be we'll to remember that unless we register we shall be barred from saying anything of the man agement of the city's affairs.

WHAT TO USE AND AVOID
ON FACES THAT PERSPlRE

Skin, to be healthy. must breathe
1t also must perspire-must expel
through the pores, its share Of the
body's waste material. Certain creams
and powders clog the pores, interfer'
ing both with elimination and breath
ing. especially during the heated per.
Tod. II more women understood this,
there would be fewer self-ruined com.
plextons. II they would use ordinary
mercolized wax instead Of cosmetics
they would have healthy compilations.
This remarkable substance actually
absorbs the bad skin, also unclogging
the pores. Result: The fresher, young
or under-skin is permitted to breathe
and to show itself. The exquisite new
complexion gradually peeps out, one
free from any appearance Of artifi-
ciality.
Obtain an ounce of mercolized wax
from your druggist and try 1t. Apply
nightly like cold cream for a week or
two, washing 1t off mornings There's
nothing quite 30 good for an over-red,
tanned OF freckled face.

Purchases Of fail goods in mems wear
win be deferred as long as possible as
result Of the uncertain conditions In
the Wholesale market, especially in re-
lation to prices. say many big buyers.
Seemingly the majority Of retailers have
made their decision to keep tabs on the
market for az long q period as possible
before attempting to meet their require
ments, and Il u eaid that buying In ed-
vance will be clrtailed greatly.
Especially among dealers in cheaper
GRADES Of merchandise is this tendency
TO delay operations pronounced. Wills
the stores dealing In the better grades
are keeping their counters wen stocked
they are conservative In their buying AZ

The dealers point to the fsct that
already have been noted in spring mer-
chandise in some cases. and for fall they
| believe there should be further reduc.

! In this connection Joseph Goldsmith

that II would be unwise for q retailer to
do fall buying now or within the next
