POSTMASTER GIVES CHRISTMAS ADVICE.


 Do not send money in letters. Al ways buy a money order and you will be sure the money reaches the person for whom 1t Is intended.
 Every Christmas there are whole lot of postal cards left over < at the postoffice without any stamps on them and containing only name like "Jack' or Nellie or "Jim." Th.s offers no. clue to where the card comes from and gives the post office no chance to ask the postage from the sender. The card is accordingly sent on to the addressee from whom the postage is demanded and is not always paid very graciously. In returning goods bought through mail order houses, the postmaster ad- vises people to put the senders name and address inside the packages, get the package insured and ask for a return receipt. This. will very often aid the person in getting credit with the house to which they have returned goods. E.,
 The department accepts for mailing certain articles if properly packed ir accordance with the requirements. Ii not so packed, and the article is broken in the mail, no compensation need. be expected from the govern ment.
 Finally is there is any doubt ir yout mind about what you ought to dc in mailing a letter or a parcel. ask tht ! postal authorities.

This may be iAompared with 53,955 tonss valued at S265, ,317,7 in 1917. The production for 1918 avs by far the largest in the history of coal min ing in Alaska, being 40 per cent larger than the output for 1917. which as also greater than that of any previous year. Itiis believed that substantial coal-rining industry has at last started in Alaska. The larger part Of the output in 1918 came from the Mat anuska field, which yielded 63,os2 tons. The remainder came from eieht or ten small mines. in different parts Of the Ter itory.

 The Tokio government is said to be moving cautiously. however. and to contemplate no change in policy relative to Siberia thats is not the outcome of frank discussions with the entente governments and especially with the United States | Officials of the Japanese foreign of- fee have already talked With Amer icans who only recently returned to Tokio from a tour of Siberia, there have been formal exchanges between the two governments. however.
 The aJapanese. view is said to be that the situation in Siberia demands re- adjustment of the regulation of the intent powers which participated in the original military movement into that country. The. purposes of that movement were to aid the Czecho- Slo- yak forces against, the pursuing. bol- shevist army. Practically that has been accomplished, many thousands ot the Czecho- -Sloyak troops having been repatriated via the United States OF the Red sea.

 The song and dance ensemble by Louis Tracy, Frank Quinn. George Miner, "Sugarfoot'' Gaffney, Bobby Gossans, Miller &. Strong and Fred Miller, bringing in lines from all the popular songs and soft shoe dancing kept the house applauding all through.
 The Potato Peeler, a .one-act sketch on a near war hero, was lacking in originality in it's jokes and the League of Expla- Nations, a satire on the mo- i mentous world event did not show the great Neil at his best as a sketch writer.

Dandruf Surely
 Destroys The Hair

Girls-ifs you want plenty of thick. beautiful; glossy, silky hair, do by all means get. rid of dandruf, for it will starve your hair. and ruin 1t if you don't, s
 It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve 1t, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to meisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
 By morning. most if not all. of your dandruf will be gone. and, three or four more applications will completely dis solve and entirely destroy every single | sign and trace of it. .I4.4 4. st You will find, too. that all itching and digging of the scalp will. stop; and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails

Three : cardinal principles for the Christmas season at the post office are emphasized by Postmaster John F. Murphy-Wraps Securely, Address Plainly, Mail Early.
 Especially on package articles, the postmaster advises that it is none too early to: begin mailing them, partic- ularly if they are going long distances. The directions, Mot to Sbe opened until, Christmas may be attached to packages so that they can be sent any time. in advance.
 The postmaster says that the pub lie can do a great deal, towards fa- cilitating mail deliver .es and avoid ing errors and complaints of mail service.
 Some of the things that it is im- portant for the public to attend * to are the following.
 If packages contain perishable : or fragile matter. be sure and mark them that way. The, postoffice will furnish tags.
 Be sure to put on the necessary postage. Many delays in deliveries of letters and packages occur because people do not find out the amount of postage needed.
 | Always put the return address on mail. This will insure the immediate return delivery to, the sender in case ;the addressee cannot be- found. 9th erwise the mail goes to the dead let ter office. ss
