EaIth BROUGHT Forth by War.

The great harvest of death in France
brought the subject of life eyerlast-
ing more closely home to millions of
men and women than it was ever
brought before and has made Easter a
more significant festival, for it stands
for resurrection and only faith in that
doctrine, that mystery, can reconcile
those who make the great sacrifice TO
their fate or can console those who
mourn. The very war itself has in
stilled this faith. Whenever soldiers
who have been at the front express
themselves on the subject 1t Is to
show belief in a future life. The
testimony of chaplains and Of nurses
is that the men do not consider the
destruction of their bodies the end
of all.-New York Sun.

FAR NORTH MISSIONARY
 TELLS OF BARROW ESKIMO|

Certain tribes of Eskimos do not eat blubber and live in ice igloos, nor are they short and squat, according to Dr. Frank H. Spence, head of the who was in Buffalo recently on a visit from the far north.
 "The pictures in the school books are wrong," Dr. Spence declared "The Eskimos at Point Barrow are as large as the average American. They do not eat blubber, but burn it for fuel. Neither do they live in houses made of ice if they can help it. At Point Barrow their shacks are of three thicknesses of wood, with much build ing paper in between.
 "They are the happiest people i'm aginable; they laugh much more than the white man. They are very polite and show many characteristics of the Oriental. Because of their crowded living quarters many of them contract tuberculosis, but we are combating this.
 q have heard from white men the story of Eskimos killed the aged and helpless, but never from a native. They are kind to their cripples, sick and aged They use modern weapons for hunting and rarely resort to the spear, also invariably shown in pie ture books, They make wonderful mechanics" nl~ . .~., .p~,..~

enough. District Attorney Summer field found that the law is some law. It requires that any Nevada County treasurer must give bond in double the amount that he may probably handle during his term.
 The bond law has been amended so that surety bonds may be given and the county pays the premium if it is not more than two and one half per cent year.
 The Washoe County treasurer hand. les approximately $14,000,00O during his term. During his four years the county will have to pay yearly TWO and one-half per cent of twice that amount, $28,000,OOO, $280,000. The treasurer's salary is $2,500 a year

ARRIVAL AT DAWSON TELLS
 OF HAPPENINGS AT MAYO

George Fulton, who arrived in DaW- son recently from Mayo, reports that the Treadwell Yukon Company struck spot on it's property, at the fifty foot level, that showed values run ming 1900 ounces to the ton in sil- yer. He also confirms the news of the good ore struck on the Gam bier claim, where Bert Lamb is working, and he tells of the new hospital and the patients sreceiving treatment there.
 "Things are looking brighter all the time in the camp" he told the News. Apart from the big body of high grade ore struck by the Wer- necke people, they hit spot that ran 16,OOO ounces to the ton in silver. This may sound incredible but it is a fact. Of course, it was only a spot. But it goes to show what an astounding future may be in store for the district.
 "On the Gambler claim Bert Lamb has values running 107, 900 and HOO ounces to the ton. The tunnel hal sloughed in on them and they are now working from shaft. This claim looks the best on the hill next to the properties of the two com panies.

MAY DILUTE WHlSKEY, BUT
 NOT BEER

LONDON, Feb. 14.-An innkeeper of England has to know a lot of things, but nevertheless there are compensations.
 For instance, it is revealed in the Licensed Victuallers' Annual for 1923 that innkeepers, who are the li- censed yictuallers of the Kingdom, may put water in the whiskey they serve their honored guests, but they may not hold a flagon of beer under the pump and dilute it's contents with the liquid that is popularly supposed to be the American national bererage. | That is one of the things they are supposed to know. One of the con- pensations is that the innkeeper is allowed to charge just as much for the diluted whiskey as he would for the real old unadulterated 100 proof The possibilities for "trifle of pickings," as the Britisher would say, are obvious, The "watered down" of adent spirits has fine opportunity of enhancing his bank account by the process.
 Beer Is Pure
 There is a common impression that all is not beer that finds it's way into the steins that are piloted over the point sturdily to the provision of the poina sturdily to the provision Of the law which "strikes with great seV- erity at the dilution of beer" They likewise point out that the mixing of one quality of beer with another beer of inferior quality is illegal, and therefore is never done by the con- scientious Boniface.
 The pollution of whiskey by mix ing it with aqua pura is permitted but the innkeeper is careful 10 ob- serve the mandate of the law by giving his patrons express notice that mo alcoholic strength is guar anteed."
 The earnest innkeeper likewise is required to know his patrons, ac- cording to the annual. The "blacl- list" of those to whom drink may not be served is still in existence and heavy penalties attach 10 the host who dispenses intoxicants to one whose name adorns the forbid i den list.
 Can't Deny Guests
 Leaving the field of ardent spirits, it is revealed that the keeper ot an inn in England may not refuse his hospitality to wayfarer unless his rooms are all full. The law gives the traveller the right to demand food, drink and shelter of the inn keeper, who is required to "receive travellers into his house and pro- vide them with beds and whatever else they may reasonably require' The publicanfi on the other hand, who is the keeper of a pup or Saloon where meals and sleeping ac- commodations are not provided, may choose his customers or refuse his hospitality to anyone he sees fit
 Miscellaneous information revealed by the yearbook points out that the really erudite innkeeper should know that the national mottor of Scotland is "Nemo Me Impue Lacessit," which means "No one provokes me with impunity," or in the argot of the Highlander, "Touch me gin we daur." That ought to be great aid to thy innkeeper who might grow hostile to- ward any Caledonian customer.
