It's vain to get excited IL wrongs

groan. IL gnashlng teeth and
ranting, and frenzied gallivanting
would cure single Ill, I'd say,
Why, then, get busy, and whoop
until you're dizzy. its sinful to be
be still" when troubles gather
round me, attempting to confound
me, do not shed a sigh; l know
that by tomorrow, by little bunch
of sorrow will snriveI up and die.
For troubles perish early unless
were sore and surly, and make Of
them our pets; the wise man winks
at trouble and blows soap-suds
bubble, and slumbers and forgets.

 OLD HOOK AND EYE

LONDON, Sept. 12.-The last nook any eye" manufacturer in London has gone out of business! Think of this, all harassed husbands whose recollec- tions can go back twenty years!
 Where we bought hundreds of thou sands of hooks and eyes ten years ago. said the manager of Harrod's Stores, i've don't buy five thousand in a tWelvemonth The poor old hooks and eyes have been superseded.
 "The first thing to take their place was the press-stud (commonly known as the popperD. This is remaining increasingly popular because it is much heater and easier to adjust Elastic is another substitute which is being increasingly used.
 But what really sounded the death of hooks and eyes was the slip-on dress, which is becoming increasingly popular and, of course, requires no fastenings at all. But don't worry about the departure of hooks and eyes. They were both clumsy and ugly.
 "Other articles have suffered sim liar eclipse. Years ago we used to buy huge quantities of buttons for sewing on costumes. No tailor-made garment would have been complete without them. Today they have gone com pletely, their place being taken either by buttons of the same cloth as the one is required

It is a pleasure to announce the good news that the Alaska Road Commission will establish a perm anent camp here in the near future i; that work on the Nizina Bridge will be begun next winter; and that a bridge is to be built across the Ken necott River to help the ranchers be- tween here and long Lake.
 MT T. Huddlestone, engineer for the Alaska Road Commission was a Mccarthy visitor this week and made a brief trip to the Nizina riv- CT to check up some data, as it is the intention of the Commission to start work on the piers next winter.
 The engineer also looked into the proposed road round the Pot Hole, but could not recommend work to be done there owing to the fact that there could not be permanent work work where the glacier is always moving but he strongly recommends that a bridge be built over the Ken necott River below the present Rail- way bridge, and that an appropria- tion of $2500 would be passed for this project and the same built next winter.
 This bridge will not only be a help to the ranchers, but to all those who use the trail through the canyon in winter.

Natives Of West Africa Gladly Ex-

Brought Them by Traders.

Beads in ancient days were used in
other ways than merely as ornaments.
There are the "aggri" beads, for In
stance, which are supposed to have
been made by the Phoenicians and
which are SO highly priced by some
of the natives of the west coast of
Africa that they give gold dust and
nuggets and slaves in exchange for
them. OF course, many of these prim-
Tive races have no money even now
and, therefore. they barter, and beads
are some Of the things they like so
much that they will give valuable
things in exchange for them. Some
times ships have sailed from European
and American ports with a cargo con-
sisting chiefly of common beads, such
as we know, as that is what certain
native races like to trade with. The
"aggri" beads are ancient barter
beads, and they form part sf the
royal jewels of the kings Of Asian
tee. Up to about fifty years ago, as
general rule, they fetched their
weight in gold, and some of the rarer
sorts one and half to twice their
weight in gold. They are really very

Some of the lighter sections of the

the traffic of light trucks driven along
the edge of the surfaces on the first

especially constructed for the expert

with increasing loads until the suit
ability Of each type is determined. The
trucks were driven SO that the outside

the sections began to fall. This was

BOOM IN MATERIAL TESTING
Increase in Facilities Has Grown Rap
Idly In Past Few Years in
Different States.

The great boom in highway build
ing which has come since the federal
aid act of 1915 has led to an increase
In the facilities for testing highway
materials. The bureau Of public roads
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture keeps in touch with all
laboratories which test material for
federal-aid roads and reports that the
number has grown from scattered
few in 1916 to at least one in every
state with two exceptions. They are
distributed as follows: State highway
department laboratories 20, university
laboratories 81, and commercial labor
atories 81, total of 6S.
Conditions have become such that 1t
is practically necessity for each
state to have means of quick testing
In order not to delay work. In pass
ing on materials the laboratories are
governed by the idea that roads must
be constructed with materials close at
hand wherever possible and give as
surance for the use Of such material
where>it is suitable.
