Four forest fires have occurred sl- ready this season, in the Chugach Ma tional Forest, according to Forest Ranger John G. Brady. Three of these took place along the Alaska Railroad and one at Hope. An ap- proximate area of ten acres of timber was burned down. It was stated that one of the fires was started by a camp fire started by -:- man walking into town A wind, starting up just after he had left the vicinity, took the fire away from the camp and de- stroyed some fine trees. Two others were caused accidentally when sec tion men were clearing up along the right of way. The one at Hope began by parties beginning to burn over clearings during the dry spell.

The scene at the Corner House,

Peter and Terry.
The meeting of Jill Seaton and

evening at 10 o'clock; the fact that
Jill had on that occasion worn
jeweled hatpin of peculiar and un-
mistakable design; and the finding
of Parsxer,s body by the river po-
lice with this pin buried in the left
breast-these things were repre-.
scented briefly but effectively to
the jury.
THE first and vital question
that arises" he said, sis that OF
motive l shall submit that in the
case OF the prisoner the motive is
clear. Parker was the obstacle
between him and the woman he.
loved. The immediate quarrel was
Of Angeles seeking, and Angelo
was the aggresser.
What motive had the prisoner,
Jill Seaton? 1t is not suggested
by the prosecution that she COM
mitted an act of deliberate and
premeditated revenge. But that
she had grounds for a deep and
bitter resentment against Parker
Is not denied. She would naturally
consider her sister to have been
wronged by Parker, and his atten.
tons to herself were doubtless an
added wrong. which most women
would find 1t difficult to pardon"

VoUR interest is naturally
L aroused by anything relat-
Ing to the possible cure of cancer.
The newspapers and medical
journals for the last few months
have contained many references
to the treatment of that disease
by the use of lead.
Before describing this recent
work in the struggle against
cancer, it is important for your
protection and that of the public
to point out emphatically that
this treatment by lead is still
very tentative and experimental.
The discoveries make no claim
whatever that lead will "cure
cancer" they simply state GER
tain results which have followed
their treatment.
It will probably be years be-
fore the process is sufficiently
understood to justify either it's
condemnation or its general use.
The difficulties in its way may
prove to be insuperable and for
this reason no one who Is unfor.
tunate enough to suffer from can.
Ger should for the present base
any hope whatever upon it.
Here is what has so far been
demonstrated:
It seems that the various ma.
lignant growths which are known
by the general name of cancer
will absorb lead more readily
than any Of the other tissues of
the body. and that Its influence
on them is very hostile.
The trouble is TO prepare lead
