VII Sterilitas, or Loss of Fur is
another disease OF the hat, especially
prevalent in Winter. It is not accu-
rately known whether this is caused
by n falling out OF the fur or by a
cessation of growth. In all diseases
of the hat the mind of the patient
is greatly depressed and his counte-
nance stamped with the deepest gloom.
He Is particularly sensitive in regard
to questions as to the previous his

malady so suddenly as to render med

MARRIED

One of our most popular young
widows, Mrs. Mary Logan, aged 60,
surprised her friends by clipping with
Rev. M. p. H. Potts aged 10 of
Mobile, Ala. on Friday, May 22nd
They slipped away quietly on the
early train to Weston and were
married there and departed for their
future home in Alabama. In com
ing for his bride Rev. Potts brought
his Sedan car as far as Charleston,
w. Va. This young couple took the
train to Charleston and from there
went by auto to Alabama. The last
heard from them they were going
south at terrific speed and pro-
badly jumped clear over Alabama in
their haste to get away and are
likely crossing over the equator by
this time. Their many friends here
wish them a long and happy married
life. May they always be prosper
Gus and contented and forebearers
of large and illustrious generation.

FORMER VICE-PRESIDENT
THOMAS MARSHALL DIES

WASHINGTON, June Thomas
R. Marshal, war time President
of the United States, died here today
He passed away at the new Will
lard Hotel here where he had been
i'll for several days with cold and a
heart affection.
The end came unexpectedly as the
former Vice President showed signs
Of improvement in the week he had
been confined to his hotel room, and
plans had been made for his return
to his home in indianapolis some
time this week.
Accompanied by his wife, Mr..
Marshal came to Washington a week
ago today. On his arrival he went
directly to the hotel, complaining Of
great exhaustion. When physicians
were summoned it was found he had
suffered from heart attack. He
regained strength gradually, howev-
er, and soon was in such a condition
that it was possible for Mrs. Mar
shall to leave the bedside to attend
to various personal errands around
the capital
Death resulted from a recurrence
ofthe heart attack which he suffered
a week ago. Tentative plans were
made for burial at Marion, Ind, near
his father and mother and foster
child who died recently.

INCREASINGLY

One step wont take you very far,
you've got to keep on walking;
One word won't tell folks who you are
you've got to keep on talking;
One inch won't make you very tall,
you've got to keep on growing;
One little ad won't tell it all,
you've got to keep them going
BECAUSE
A constant drop Of water wears away
the hardest stone;
The constant gnawing towser masti-
Gates the toughest bone;
The constant cooling lover carries off
the blushing maid,
And the constant advertiser is the
one that gets the trade.

 Oh, how Scott Thiele and Karl Bone would like to throw Kasaan out on the strength of Heckman's affidavits.

THE CANVASSINC BOARD

 Karl Thiele, Surveyor General and Secretary of Alaska, and M. S. Whittier, Chief Deputy Collector of Customs.
 In their desire to prevent William L. Paul from sitting in the next Legislature, to which he was elected, this Board is grasping at legal straws hoping against hope that 1t may find some legal excuse to throw out enough votes to unseat him.
 They, (eXcuse our use of the pro- nouns ''it'' and "they," as we some times think of the Board as unit and at other times as individual members), remind us of a self-con- scious boy trying to get up courage to ask his adored sweetheart the fatal question.
 Their trouble is that none of them knows just what the reaction on the part of citizens generally will be and they lack nerve to do what they most desire-to steal the election from Paul, whom they cannot con- trol, in favor of J. J. Connors for reasons which they we'll know.
 This Board we'll exemplifies how ignorant men in high public office can be. The method which they thought they could follow was simp- ly to act on J. R. Heckman's affi- davit, throw out the Kasaan vote and Paul would be out and Connors in.
 Cautious Scott Carpet Bone, how ever, thought that by getting an opinion from the Territorial Attor- ney General to that effect he could "wash his hands" of the wrath that will surely come. They really thought they could go behind the returns So they propounded their questions:
 l. Can the Canvassing Board take cognizance and action on the affi~ davits filed with it, showing that at Kasaan the election board failed to provide booths and privacy of voting as required under sections 16 and IT, of Chapter 25, Session Laws of 1915?
 2. Were the judges at Angoon le- gally qualified under Section 397 Compiled Laws of Alaska since they administered the oaths to themselves and not one to the other?
 3. Whether the Board has the right to canvass individual ballots and to allow inspection of them by Interested parties."
 You can imagine the consternation of the anxious Board when the At- torney General said. "The Territor- ial Canvassing Board has no right or power to canvass individual bal lots, and it's duty is confined to the purely clerical function of totalling the vote cast at the various pre-
