WANTED ABROAD
John Martin, Held as Hugh

Story to Officers.

Giving his real name as julius

political refugee from Czecho-Slo-

local Federal jail at Hugh DeAutre-

Marshal Albert A. White that he
had come to Alaska because he had
read newspaper stories that eondi-

The story told by the man known
as Martin reads like fetion and in

claimed, in an effort to evade de-

sentatives, a consequent deportation
to that country and death at the
hands of firing squad.
Death Either Way
Arrested as another man against
whom a charge of murder and a
train holdup was pending, if he
were identified as that man he said
he realized that the moose awaited
him. If he confessed his real iden-
tity and proved it, he said he knew
he was liable to deportation which,
to him, was equivalent to being
condemned to death as he expected

Nerves of Inualids
Soothed by Pictures

Art Is being used successfully in
the treatment of nervous diseases In
Philadelphia hospital. Pictures In
proper colors, when exhibited to pa
tients, have soothing effect, 1t has
been found. Reds and other hot col
ors" are not used, since they disturb
the nervous system. In some of the
more turbulent cases 1t has been nee
essary to hang the paintings out of
reach of the patients.
The basic idea is that Of the emo
ton being affected by color, SO great
care is exercised in selecting the right
pictures.
''The cOlors we find most advan-
tageous," said hospital attache, "are
the cool ones. These bring a calming
influence. For this reason landscapes
seascapes and mountain scenes are
preferable. The wave-wash on New
England coast, a sunny pastoral
scene, puffy white clouds astride
mountain peaks, all reveal peace, still

which are nevertheless suitable human

fishes Of the American Museum of Nat
ural History, writing for the Forum.
Even the predacious shark can be util-
lied. AT present sharks probably take
toll OF food from the sea equal or
even greater by several times than
man. II the sharks were gone, man
would have what the sharks now take
from him. The usableness of sharks
has been demonstrated by recent in
vestigations. Many of them are per-
fectly good to eat. Their oil has va
rious desirable properties, and excel
lent leather can be made from their
hides. The residue may be ground up
and used for fertilizer This much is
certain: when once the necessity
arises, the sea can stay mans hun
ger for long time.

FOOD FOR THE DAY

Nov that the warm days of sum.
~ mer are. here, the house mother
who gets any enjoyment from out
door life, must simplify her meals
Fortunately during the warm months
we all like the juicy fruits and sue
chlent vegetables and care less about
hearty foods. such as meats, puddings
and pastries.
Cold fruit soups, fruit salads and
fruit cocktails are all wel-lked for
the beginning Of the summer dinner
Iced drinks are always welcome
For luncheon or supper, sandwiches
with a drink of some sort, a salad and
a piece of cake will make a good
wholesome meal. One may have sliced
cold meat, olives, radishes, green
onions or simple vegetable salad; a
dish Of some sort of frozen combna-
menu
An omelet is plain, and one of the
easiest dishes to prepare, after little
practice; served with some sort of a
sauce it may be very satisfying.
For breakfast the dish of fruit, an
orange, or any fruit In season, is al
ways a good beginning for the day.
With a dish of oatmeal with cream or
top milk, q piece of buttered toast
with an egg or slice of bacon, cup OF
coffee and cooky or doughnut one
will be sufficiently sustained until the
noon meal. When dinner is served at
night and luncheon at noon, the menu
for the luncheon will correspond to
the supper dishes, for those who serve
the dinner in the middle of the day.
Chocolate cake baked in layers and
put together with orange sauce Is a
great favorite.

KNOW not what the day may bring

For have seen q yellow morning
With summer gold the hills adorning,
1et seen that very sun at noon
Turn to the pallor of the moon,
Have seen the fog come landward
drifting
TIL mountain peaks no more were

Until the world was nothing more
Than just path along the shore
Where seagulls scream and breakers
l know not what the day may b.:
For have seen the troubled sea
Grow calm, have seen some morning
olouded, q
It's pathway dim. its mountains
shrouded,
Grow blue above. grow green around
Yes, faring onward I have found.
That many sun SO poorly risen
May break through mists that may
imprison
And turn the world to green and gold.
Yes. warm the rocks that now arc
cold.
Ono never knows what day may hold.
One never knows--but this we know:
The fogs may come, the fogs may 60.
And men see darkly. mon see clearly,
But II we hold not Joy too dearly
Nor pain too deeply, take the day
As day may come, and walk the way,
NO path shall seem too hard for choos-
Ing.
For faith can answer anything,
And lips can smile, and even sing.
No matter what the day may bring.

It can be said that many of the
