REINDEER AND EDUCATION.

Domestic reindeer herds in Alask:
are now worth $1,550,000 more thar
the United States paid to Russia il
1867 for the entire Territory, announc
ed the Bureau of Education of the De
partment of the Interior in its annual
report for the past fiscal year made
public today.
OF the whole number of reindeer
approximately $4,000, about 235,00d
are owned by natives. The deer sup
ply to their owners means not only
food and clothing, but a livelihood
The entire industry has developed
since 1892, when the Bureau of Edu
cation began to import the animals
from Siberia. The herds extend from
the Attic to the Pacific Ocean, and in
the interior from The Alaska Railroad
to the Aleutian Islands.
The Bureau of Education is charged
by law with the education and well
fare of the natives of Alaska, and the
introduction of reindeer is but a part
Of its work in their behalf. Schools,
hospitals, and cooperative commercial
enterprises are also included.

SPREAD YOUR CHRISTMAS.

There are so many homeless folk i'll
the hotels and boarding houses and
school dormitories-so many, too, who
are unable, for one reason or another,
to go home for the Christmas holiday,
that it is an especially gracious thing
for those who have homes to invite
someone of these unfortunates to
share the Christmas cheer. America
is often known as the home of hospi-
tally and the land of the most gem
erous hostesses. But guests should not
take advantage of this. A well-bred,
considerate person always seeks to
make the hostess efforts as light as
possible when he is trying to make
the visit pleasant. If the hostess sug-
gests some sort of entertainment, the
guest should aid her, and should in all
things show consideration and regard
for the rights of others in the house.

you don't feel like talking;' be as

There was time when Oleomarger
inc and many other butter substitutes
were sold up and down the state with
out let or hindrance. These substi-
tutes could be made cheaper and
therefore, sold cheaper than genuine
butter and the result was disastrous
to the makers of the real article both
on the farm and in the factory. A
law was later enacted by our legisla-
ture requiring that all such articles
placed in the public marts for sale be
done in packages bearing printed la
bells stating specifically their CON
telts. This was done for the protec-
ton of the seller as well as the buy
err. This law requires that butter la
bel must be printed with a nom
poisonous, vegetable ink, made espe-
cially for this use. The promiscuous
use Of stamps would defeat the object
of the act, so it says the labels must
be printed in regular form.

Business is business, the old man
said,
"It's warfare where everything
goes,
( Where every act that pays is fair
And all whom You meet are foes.
It's battle of wits, heartless rush;
It's tearing, wearing fight;
It's trick of the strong to win from
the weak.
With never thought of the right.
And he schemed, and he fought, and
he pushed men aside,
While the world in contempt looked
on;
1t buried him deep meath the wealth
that he claimed
And covered his name with scorn.
q Business is business the young
man said,
A game in which all may play;
Where every move must accord with
the rules
And no one his fellow betray.
It's wholesome and clean, and full of
goodwill
It's an urging, surging game,
It's mission to serve in your day
and age,
And guerdon to honor your
name.'
And he sought and he bought, and he
brought from afar,
And he served with conscience
clear;
While his praise was sung by his fell
1ow-men
And his service crowned with cheer.

Assistant Attorney General, in letters

was prompted by the increase in bank

the possibility of further increase of
crime when thousands of men come
into the state for the harvest.
Yeggmen, according to Mr.. Thorpe,
have taken advantage of towns with
out night watchmen, and most of the
burglaries have occurred in such
towns. In some towns citizens of
their own accord have formed vigil
ance committees, provided night
watchmen either through volunteers
or raising funds to pay them,. and
have protected the towns from rob-
