TWO STRINGS TO YOUR BOW.

Can YOU do more than ono thing7
Do one thing well, is the slogan Of to-
day. 1t has points. But it Ia often lucky
thing TO be able to do another thing at
one time well And the more tho two things
you can do differ from each other, the
better
There are such things in life rs accidents,
sudden brealSdowns or n complete change
of circumstances. Something happens that
makes it impossible for you to 20 on with
your regular job. Take the case of n girl
| know. She was an expert stenographer,
and commanded An excellent salary. But
deafness developed which increased no
that she could no longer 20 on with her
work. As it happened this girl had a taste
for cooking and serving meals, and had
once taken summer course In domestic
science. She was of the real, spunky,
never-sav-die type, and she went right to
work at finding an outlet for that side OF
her. She got another woman interested
and between them they set up n small tea
and luncheon shop, and this girl superin-
tended the kitchen department, did the
marketing, planned the desserts, and two
cake specialitics she featured were made
either by herself or under her direct super
vision.
She made success of the venture, and
is today in comfortable circumstances.
But if she had had no other string to her
bow she would have less pleasant tale
to tell
But aside from some such ca tastrophe
as this, where you lose your chance 10 do
the work you have been doing for living,
it Is good thing to have something else
at which you are proficient. Ii is great
relief from staleness 20 be able 10 do some
thing different. Even II you only change
from an office job nll winter, to being a
waitress the summer at some resort Of
mountain or sea, you will be bene fitted by
the complete change which will affect
you all over, mind and body, broaden
your contracts with the world Of people
and give you fresh views points.

will tell you that when they have gone a
certain distance they are almost over
| come with exhaustion. Their feet drag
and their breaths clog but If they force
themselves on, they get what they call
their second wind. and make their best
speed to their goal.
That is true cverywherc in life. If we
refuse TO give up whom we get weary, and
discouraged. and lose heart, we get our
second wind, and find that we have dipped
down into unexTlored and undreamed OF
wells of vitality and power, md that we q
are enabled TO do better work than we
have ever done before.
If YOU are tired of your work and en-
vironment, and circumstances are 80 that
you cannot change them, why not try
changing your own viewpoint towards
thcmf
Everything in life depends upon the
way in which we look upon IL. The only
difference between work and play IL our
own attitude towards it. II costs a man a
lot of money 10 drive his own automobile,
and he calls that sport. He hires man
TO drive that same automobile, and that
man calls il work, but both men have done
exactly the same thing.
Most girls consider that they are having
the time of their lives when they go shop
ping, and peacock around before long
mirrors in imported gowns, and wraps
that they haven't the money TO buy; but
when girl is paid for showing how lovely
she looks In gorgeous finery, she bewails
her fate as a poor, down-trodden, working
girl.
So you see il is all the angle that you
get on YOUR fate | know Just as many
rich girls who are bored to death with
having nothing worth while To do, as do
working girls who are tired of having
something definite they have got to do.
Believe me, mydear, you can get just as sick
of dragging around To parties as YOU can of
pounding typewriter, and YOU can come
10 hate the inanc chatter of willy-boys just
"a much rs you can the line of conversa-
ton your boss carries.
So the best cure for that tired feeling is
TO quit looking upon your Job rs curse,
and to regard il as blessing. Just reflect
that it stands between you and want. You
are independent, self-rcspecting, honored
by all who know you. No shadow lies
across the white pathway of your girl
hood. Whsn YOU look at the poor be-
draggled creatures of the streets, skulkins
along in the shadows, just think that but
for your ability to make your own living
you might have belonged to that sorrow-
ful sisterhood
You cannot stop TO rest because Of the
helpless ones of your family who are
dependent upon you. II is hard that your
slender young shoulder must bear such
heavy burdens, but when YOU think Of
your mother in the poorhouse, your little
sisters and brothers in the cold, forlorn
shelter Of an orphan asylum, does it not
make you want to 60 down on your knees
and thank God for the job that enables
you TO keep your own home-frs burning
And, lastiy, for that tired feeling, shake
up your self-conceit, and take a good
strong dose IS often as required. Quit
looking upon yourself as a martyr, and
get slant on yourself as conqueror, No

GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

OF all the lettshs receive from my read

refer TO the dining room Housekeepers seem
to be waking up TO the fact that IL Is more
important to have an ldiningroom

one is eating naturally brighten the diner
and make the meal more enjoyable.

 RETAIN INSURANCE

aEX-seryice men now have until July 1, next, to reinstate their gov crnment insurance" declared J. P. Walker, Commander of the Depart ment of Alaska, American Legion, in a statement made this morning. At the rate offered by the govern ment's War Risk Insurance Bureau, no man is unable to grab the op- pCrtunity offered, and the protection afforded relatives of the insured is immeasureaple.
 In order to make reinstatement as easy as possible, any former soldier whose insurance has lapsed not more than IS months can, by proper ap- plication, be re-instated upon the payment of only two months prem iums accompanied by a certificate or statement that his physical con dition is as good as on the date his insurance was last effective. The government by recent legisla- tion has arranged for any kind of policy from straight life to an en- dowment policy. Regulations also have been changed so that policies are now paid in lump sums instead of in monthly instaIlments as was formerly the case.

RICH GOLD STRIKE
 IS REPORTED FROM
 CHICHAGOF ISLAND
Captain J. H. Cam Brings In News Of High Gold Values On Stag
 Bay Claims

Bringing in the news of the find discovered at Stag Bay on Lisianski Straits. Capt J. II. Cam is in town from Chichpgof on the Apex today
 The group of claims on which the new rich strike was made is one of three in which Capt Cam is in terested and is the original group that was discovered by Mrs. Cam in 1913 The other two groups were discovered last fall and have been bonded for very large sums.
 MT Cam said today that with the aid of ladders to scale the cliffs back of Stag Bay he was able to reach the ledge. He took samples and found them high in gold values, making this property, the nearest to the beach on the Stag Bay side of Chichagof Island look fully as promising as the other two groups of claims that have been bonded.
 This spring is the latest that he has ever known according to Capt. Cam. The snow, while not so deep, has not started to melt in many places and is lying at a depth of at least two feet This condition. of af- fairs makes prospecting or develop ment work extremely difficult.
 Capt. Cam, who arrived early this morning on the Apex is here on urgent business matters and will re turn to the mines immediately.
