EndeavOring to
 Find Happiness
Seattle.-Wanted-a baby.

Seattle. baby.
 Sending an emissary 1000 miles to Seattle to find child for them to adopt. an Alaska couple, doing mis- sionary work in the North, have fail ed to find the little human mite need ed to complete their happiness.
 But they are still hopeful. Their forwarding address is held by the Washington Children's Home Society and they have first call.
 They want a girl anywhere from a month to years old. Specifications as to complexion, nationality, eyes, hair and everything else are waived.
 w. H. Shoemaker, 22 years old, and his 21 year-ol6 wife have been married for two years and for the last eight months have been doing missionary work for the Penticostal Rescue Mission at Skagway. They are soon to go into the interior in furtherance of their missionary work and having no children of their own decided to adopt a little girl. When their friend, Mrs. A. R. Hillery, sec retary of the Skagway board of edu- cation, recently was called to Seat tie on business, they commissioned her to find a child for them.
 Mrs. Hillery was in Seattle 10 days, but was unable to find little girl such as they required, although she applied to the Washington Chil- dren's Home Society, the Public Vel fare League and other charitable in- stitutions. Mrs. Hillery left for Al aska the other morning, but has left credentials for the couple at the Se- attle offices of the Children's Home Society in the Thompson building, and said they would gladly send for girl should one be found.
 Dr. George H. Sheaf, state super intendent of the society, said there are so many applications for little orphan girls for adoption that it is impossible to fill them. The only lit- tie girl at the home in Seattle an- swering the requirements of the AL aska couple he said, had been virtu- ally reared by her 13 year-old sister and when the sister objected to going to the North he did not feel that he could separate them. Dr. Sheaf said that MT. and Mrs. Shoemaker's rec concentrations were of the best.

The bucket line was put on the Gold Run dredge this morn ing. and the big machine started digging on claim No. 2S. Marvin H. Benton is dredge master in charge.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two
young girls fifteen and sixteen years
old and are always bothered with boys.
We do nothing to call attention and
only speak to our best friends. How
can we get rid of these boys? We are
not on the streets except when we have
TO go.
We were out with two of our friends
the other night and the boys followed
US. Do these boys think we are hard
We do absolutely nothing to show it.
Please give US your advice.
INNOCENT GIRLS.
Perhaps you giggle, dress immodest-
ly, flirt without speaking or give an
invitation for familiarity In some other
way. If you are cal eful enough you
will not be annoyed. | would advise
you not to go on the street in the even
ing unless you are accompanied by an
older person. You must give the i'm
preston in some way that you are
hard or the boys would leave you
alone.
