SAVE THE EAGLE.

From the public information bureau Of the

passed by the Alaska legislature IN 1917.
Alaska is eagerly protective Of it's budding re-
sources Some cases of depreciation OF domes-
tic animals and fowls were reported to the legis-
i1ature and that body of territorial patriots at
once enacted a law awarding bounty of fifty
cents for each eagle. Already, the museum 8
experts DECLARE five thousand eagles have been
killed and in another year the bird viii be well
on its way to extinction. Moreover, these ex-
pertg gay that the bird is inoffensive except in
rare instances where in nesting time the fe-
male seeks food nearby.
We killed off our wild pigeons foolishly and
barbarously and only wakcd mp to the loss when
it was too late to save the bird to our land. Now
we arc spending public money to kin off the
american eagle. We have done badly enough
by our birds already without adding another

Weak, Thin, Nervous
People Should Take
Bino-Phosphale
What II Is And How II Increases
Weight, Strength and Nerve-Force.

(! Judging from the countless prepa-
rations and treatments which are
continually being advertised for the
purpose OF making thin people heshy,
developing arms and neck, and re-
placing ugly hollows and angles by
| the soft curved lines of health and
beauty, there are, evidently thousands
| of men and women who keenly feel
their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often
due to starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contain
| ed in modern foods. Physicians
claim there is nothing that will sup
Iply this deficiency so well as the
organic phosphate known among
druggists as bitro-phosphate, which
| Is inexpensive and is sold by Wilkin-
son G Co., and most all druggists
under guarantee Of satisfaction or
money back.
BY feeding the nerves directly and

necessary phosphoric food elements,

Increase in weight also carries
with it general Improvement in the
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness
and lack of energy, which nearly al
ways accompany excessive thinness,
should soon disappear. dull eyes

the bloom of perfect health

OUR DAMAGED RAILWAYS,

The Association Of Railway Executives
points out that while the roads received during
government operation a stated financial return

previous years, their operating costs were so in
creased and their equipment has so run down
that the work Of restoration will require an es-
timated billion dollars annually for several
years 10 come. Where to get this capital is the
very serious problem now confronting them: for
H. order to obtain it, their securities must be
more attractive to investors than they are to-
day Essential to this end is change of atti-
tude on the part Of governmental agencies and
juster popular appreciation Of the situation
The Interstate commerce commission, the man
ayers Of the roads and their organized employees
must work together for conditions that will per
nit their restoration; and the public must real
ize the tremendous extent and cost Of the work
TO be done and the Importance, which cannot be
overestimated, Of making the transportation
system Of the country adequate to its needs
obviously such rates and earnings as will re-

TRY SULP HUR ON

Costs Little and Overcomes Trouble
Almost Over Nioht

Almost Over Night
Any breaking out of the skin, even
fiery, itching eczema, can be quickly
overcome by applying Mentho-Sul-
phur, declares noted skin specialist.
Because OF its germ destroying prop
critics, this sulphur preparation in.
stantly brings ease from skin irrita-
ton, goothes and heals the eczema
right up and leaves the skin clear
and smooth.
1t seldom fails to relieve the tor
ment without delay. Sufferers from
skin trouble should obtain a small
jar OF Mentho-SuIphur from any good
druggist and use 1t like cold cream.

In an official document issued by the war de-
partment the information is given that that de-
partnent has gold TO the Russian soviet gov
eminent one hundred and thirty-fve Thousand
pairs of army shoes at prices from one dollar
and thirty-fve cents pair to two dollars. This
is extraordinary. In the first place the state
department has been telling the people that
there must be no recognition that the soviet
government exists; then there is the straight
statement from the attorney general that soviet
Russia is back Of reasonable unrest in this
country; it's ambassador, Martens, is being in
vesti gated now by the senate. Yet here is the
war department selling shoes, presumably good
ons, at prices that read like Arabian Night
stories Possibly these shoes are not Of late
pattern nor of the most liked materials and for
this reason Secretary Baker believed there
would be no market for them here. But it
would seem that they might have been sold at
such prices.
