is level enough to lie down and be
sure that there is no danger of roll

had the best buffalo fish for dinner,
Mr.. Todd knows how to catch them,
and what is more to the point, Mrs.
Todd knows how to cook them. Being
fresh from Bayou Meto you can mag
inc how fine they were 1t was worth
a weeks trip just to get this fish
dinner Mr.. Todd said he went fish,
ing about once a week. Mrs. TODD
said three times week would be
nearer right. He said he had only
been once that week Then Mrs.
Todd made him acknowledge he had
been twice that week and three
times the week before. The three
Todds always go together, even if
they have to shut down their saw
mill and always catch plenty of fish.
On this occasion Warren Hogan, M.
L. Misenheimer and another party
was with them, so they divided their
fish in six equal parts.

Mr.. Bryant had been gradually

you see it pays to read Pulaskian

Pile of this section, would rather live

him was a farm of 1913 acres. Twenty
five acres rich bottom land, fifteen of
it in cultivation Good box house,
stable and well of best cold water, a
few fruit trees. Sixty acres of virgin
nine timber, lot of white oak and
other hardwood on the bottm land.
The other timber was cut carefully
and the remaining pine is growing
faster than the interest on the money
The price of this is $1,000, $500 cash,
remainder 500 year at a low rate of
interest I should think man could
hire the timber cut and made into
lumber and sell it at a profit of ST.

Worse than the evils Of strong drink are the evils of gossip. Strong drink causes the downfall of men and women who are to, weak ,o withstand it's ravaccs. but gossip causes the downfall of innocent men and women mcr and women who are the head, of families and who are living upright, honorable lives.
 Gossip has blasted the name of mora honest. up.irh, and vtr,uous women than all the drink in ,hc world. Like unto the crprn;'s tooth k the sheer ins word ,noIcn behind ,hc hack.
 ThcIc k au oId saving that Truth crushed to earth shall rise again Eut Tur,h can never ovrr,akc th' evils which have caused jts downfall.
The Seward gateway daily edition, and the Alaska weekly post., 1919-05-23

The evil word OF thought spoken in gossip travels aS the lightning while the true facts as the snail.
 Gossip has caused more hard feel ing in Petersburg than all the sa- looms that ever existed here. Gossip hal, driven honorable men and wom- cn from the community. Men and women who would have made good citizens but who have left rather than endure the misery of being the target of malicious tongues.
 Gossip k the offspring of idlcnrsS. lf all the women and men were k'pt busy attending to their own aft; rS they would he too busy to spread talk about others or mind the affairs of others. Many far name and rcpu- ,a,iou k forever blasted by some ua- thinking woman who has nothing bet ter ,o occupy her time than to tall; about the affairs of her neighborS.
 Petersburg iS gaining an nerti- able reputation for this evil; unles lt is stopped soon great evils will rr- suit. Three women meet;
 Mrs. So and So left for the south on a certain boat" says one.
 "Ncs. and such and such a man went on the same boat" says another
 Why, they went together and a'c not coming back" says the third. and the gossip has started. Within day the reputation of the absent woman k blasted, although she may have been good wife and her trip may have been from entirely inno- cent causes.
 And here k another inStanco:-- two women meet on the street;
 Mrs. So and 50 has gone on a trip Co the states, hasn't she!
