"IIenry Watterson," said a Louis
Vile editor, "was a %gourmet-a fin
gourmet, as The French put it-but
he hated gluttony like sin.
"Gluttons, he claimed, couldn't keep
their minds off their stomachs. He
said he once visited an English lord,
and the smoking room Of the.castle
was crowded with trophies of the lords
skill in the hunting field.
"A fat glutton was among the party.
He, with the rest, admired the fine
display of antlers-horns Of the noun
tain sheep, the elk, the antelope, the
wild goat, mOoSe and so on. Then
there were skinS-bcar skins, bison
skins, tiger skins. And stuffed birds
~pheasants, w%oodcock, vile turkey,

MY lord said the glutton, tell me
did you eat all this yourself?'"

All Is Not Gold That Critters
 Hyder Alaska Miner

Writing to Ed, Fernald from Siberia, where he went last spring, Arthur Marlatt con- firms the letter quoted some time ago in the Miner which was received by a friend in Ketchikan. Siberia, he says, offers no inducements to the prospector, for while there is undoubtedly some gold there the government is so uncertain except in it's invariable crooked ess, that should a big strike q made the discoverer would yer be allowed to reap the benefit.
 The 19 Americans who land- ed there, he says, are about broke including himself.
 They have 'scurvy outfit" for winter, if the army uoes not take it away from them, in which case they will have to eat snowballs.
 He asks that the truth be made known through the press to discourage others who may contemplate going from taking that step.
