Dear Mrs Thompson: Should a
girl suggest the place to go il the
boy asks her? THANK YOU.
1t is all right for the girl to sug-
gest the place she wants to go If
the boy asks. for her suggestion.
But she should be considerate q
him and not overstrain his pocket
book if she knows that his allow
ance is limited.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Will cold
cream grow hair on the face?
Can anything be done to do away
with dark rings under the eyes?
Is there a. good remedy for
pimples coming now aid then On
the face? THANK YOU.
There are many good cold creams
which guarantee that they will not
grow hair. Ask your druggist 10
recommend one.
Dark rings are the result of lac k
of sleep and physical disorders. If
you are so troubled and know that
it cannot be from lack of sleep,
consult a physician by all means.
Pimples that come now and then
result from an upset stomach in
almost all cases. Be more careful
of what you eat and avoid rich
foods.

BONE PROTESTS
AGAINST CHANGE
OF MAIL ROUTE
Saws Transfer of Lower River
Mail to Northern Route
Is Injurious.

Declaring that it will be impos-
sble to give satisfactory or reason
able service on the proposed mail
route from Kob station just south
to Nenana to McGrath and the upper
Kuskokwim districts this winter,
Gov. Scott c. Bone has entered a
protest against the substitution OF
that route for the Nancy Rainy Pass
McGrath route over which the mail
was carried last winter. The lack
CT a trail on the new route, said
Governor Bone makes it impossible
for the maintenance of an adequate
service.
In a telegram sent to Supt. Van
Dervoort, U. s. Railway Mail Service
at Seattle. the Governor asks for a
reconsideration of the matter with
the view OF restoring the old service.
He pointed out that the service last
winter was entirely as satisfactory
and much superior to that given
residents of the remote districts
during the winter of 1920-21. when
the mail was routed from Nenana
down-river to McGrath and the other
lower river settlements. On the
Rainy Pass route. he said. feed for
dogs has been put in. roadhouse ae-
commodations for mail carriers and
other travellers provided and the
proposed switch in the routes will
cause a material loss to the road
house keepers, who have made all
preparations to look af.er this years
traffic On the Kobi-McGrath route,
he said. accommodations are scanty.
The contract over the latter route
was recently awarded to f. Coke
Hill. well known interior lawyer and
business man II have the very
highest regard for Mr. Hill and tho
request for a restoration of the
Rainy Pass route is not criticism
of him"

Deal to them. They do not want
legalized temptation thus placed
before their sons and daughters.
They do not believe that the sale of
liquor would be confined to light
wines and beer anyway. The pur-
veyors of alcoholic beverages never
have obeyed the law. Is there any
guarantee that they would not sell
every conceivable drugged drink in
Guiding moonsHne, under the guise
Of light vines and beer? If there
is the people of Sitka would like to
see that guarantee. In other words,
you will have to show them. They
are not all from Missouri but many
of them are"
