settings innumerable ;the fisherman may use his rod with a vengeance; the kodak fan may take pictures from sun-up to sun-down, and have at the close of the day an envious col lection of views. Here the saddle horse enthusiast may follow his fav- orite sport along lowered and wood ed trails-always with the mighty and magnificent Mt. Mckinley in view. Here in this vast northland may be seen and enjoyed everything that the Alps has to offer and more.
 What Mt. Rainier means to the Pa cific Northwest; what Yosemite is to California; what Yellowstone and Glacier National Park mean to the west and middle west, and what La Toilette National Park means to Maine and the other New England States, Mt. Mckinley National Park can mean to Alaska. In the ac- complishment of this aim all that is required is the whole hearted and un- ited effort of all concerned. Appro- priations for National Park develop ment come when the communities di- rectly interested do their part, and it remains for every Alaskan to do his and her part towards interesting the world in what we have. In this work our agents each day have op- portunities to play an interesting and leading role. Whenever visi- tor makes inquiry concerning places of interest, make it point to men tion Mt. Mckinley National Park, and how to reach it. Outline the activi- ties that may be indulged in there. Explain that accommodations at the Savage River Camp of the Mt. Me Kinley Park Transportation Company are clean and comfortable, and that safe saddle horses and competent guides are always available. Also explain that stop-overs at Mckinley Park are allowed on all tickets. AL ways have on hand supply of cards covering rates for various services at the Park. When your supply becomes low advise this office and an addi tional supply will be sent you. In brief boost Mt. Mckinley National Park whenever and wherever possible. It is the biggest single attraction that Alaska has to offer, and it's develop ment means much toward develop ment of the Territory and The Alas ka Railroad.

What Today Means to You
Taurus.
BY MARY BLAKE.


Today is entirely dominated by un-
favorable aspects, indicating discord,
| trouble. irritation, delay and loss.
Very inauspicious for any and all i'm
| portant matters. Only commonplace
and routine duties should receive at
tention.
A child born today will be healthy
and have promise of a long life. 1t is
liable to be rather violent, although
very repentant after any outburst or
either bad temper or foolish impulse
These inherent characteristics can be
very much modified if a consistent ef-
| fort is made in youth to inculcate
self-control and restraint
| If today is your birthday, you pos
| sess a genial disposition and a reli-
| able character. You are very frank
| and are an avowed enemy of every
| thing that has the earmarks of deceit
| or observation-disclosures. You feel at all
| times free to express your opinions
| without fear. This. sometimes. causes
| you trouble. but, on nearly all occa-
| sions, the geniality of your disposi-
| ton pours "oil on the troubled wa
! ters."
Very few people like to hear the
| real truth about themselves, as all of
us have failings and weakness, which
we endeavor very often unsucccss-
| fully, to hide from others. You could.
possibly, secure better results in life
| if you were not so candid.
When courting or being courted. a
| mans ardor is quickly cooled If the
| girl lets him know that he is not all
that he has tried to make himself ap-
| pear. A girls affections are disposed
| to waver if the man does not keep her
on the pedestal on which she dreams
| she ought to stand in his eyes.
/ Your home and social life leaves lit
| tie to be desired, as here you are with
| those who know you. and who are
| more amused with. than angered at,
your well known proclivIties. Your
| eeniality, accompanied as it always
| is with a smile. disarms criticism
and invites affection.
In business your success is not so
startling. as your associates do not
appreciate at times your candor and
absolute lack of finesse. Your smile,
attractive though it may be. seems to
lose it's influence when used on hard
business men.
1t is, if congeniality is desired.

My Neighbor Says:

When it is necessary to re-
paint a bathtub first rub it
with sandpaper or pumice stone.
After this apply two or three
coats of bath enamel which
will adhere much better when
the surface is roughened. In
order to preserve the paint
when the bath is in use be
careful to turn on the cold
water before letting hot water
run into it
To whiten cotton cloth, wash
it with soap but do not rinse
before spreading on the grass
to bleach. Rinse after few
days and repeat, If necessary.
Iron pillowslips lengthwise
instead of crosswise If you wish
to iron the wrinkles out instead
of in.
Rugs and carpets should be
turned around every six months
where there is much wear.
Constant turning in this way
causes them to wear evenly.
To cool a hot dish in hurry,
place 1t in a vessel full of cold
salt water.
If postage stamps have be-
come glued together, lay thin
paper over them and run a hot
iron over them The mucilage
will not be hurt.
The refrigerator should be
thorough scrubbed frequently
with a strong solution Of hot
borax water and left open to
air.

tempted to plunge into the water and
swim and swim until he could swim
no longer.
1T would be no worse to drown
than to starve to death" said he. But
somehow he never could make up his
mind to try it.
He was thinking about this as he
sat in the doorway. He was trying
the water and swim. He happened to
look off to his left, and he saw a
large piece of board floating. 1t was
moving very. very slowly, but 1t was
moving toward that fence post. 1t

until he was sure that If that little
piece of board kept on it would pass
close to the post. Then he scrambled
out and called to Nanny. Nanny poked
her head out at once.

chance to get away from here, Nan
ny" cried Danny. "If that piece of
board over there keeps on drifting
the way it is going now 1t Will get
to shore some time. IF we can get on
it it will take us there"
But it Will take long time pro-
tested Nanny at will take long
time, and all that time we will be
right i'm plain sight of Redtail the
Hawk if he comes along. Besides,
with two of us on it that board
might upset and then we would be
drowned"
Then that would end it declared
Danny. "If we stay here we'll starve
to death. If we go drifting on that
piece Of board we may be caught by
Redtail the Hawk or we may be up
set and drowned. but we may reach
land. 1t offers us chance, and
for one am going to take that
chance.
Nanny said nothing. They watched
that bit of board drifting nearer and
nearer. Finally it actually touched
that post. without a word Danny
ran down ionto it, Nanny hesitated:
She hesitated until that bit of board
with Danny on 1t was starting to
drift away. Then she, too, ran down
and onto 1t The bit Of board drifted
away from the post with two as

Cooking for Two.

Young housekeepers should be re-
minded that the recipes given in this
department may be used as a basis
for larger quantities. BY doubling
or trebling each ingredient satisfac-
tory recipes may be obtained for
serving four or even six.
If multiplying the quantities by
three does not give dishes sufficient
for any increase in the size of the
family, it is best to use a special
recipe, as materials do not combine
in precisely the same manner when
the quantities are large. In other
words, three times an average recipe
will give satisfactory results, where
as IL the quantities are multiplied by
four the smooth blending may be
interfered with.
Scalloped Asparagus.-Place left
over creamed asparagus (the coarser
portions of the stalks are suitable for
this) in a small baking dish; cover

more asparagus and add a top layer
Of crumbs. Three-quarters of a cup
of bread crumbs will take about one
quarter cup of butter. The butter
should be melted and the crumbs
stirred through. being careful not to
brown the crumbs at this stage. After
