 AGING GAME OF ALASKA
Anchorage Times.


 The predatory anima lsituation in Alaska has reached tn ep noit mfw f Alaska has reached the point where it IS real menace to game and fur life and should have the very serious consideration of Alaskans, according to F. K. Stewart, Territoria lperda <o-t yranmail hunter, who arrived in Anchorage on Saturday, and who will remain here until the end of the week for the purpose of acquainting trappers and prospectors with the best methods of trapping coyotes and wolves
 Mr. Stewart has been in Alaska since last July, having spent most of that time in the Upper Panama coun- try, where he found abundant evil tdence of the rapid spread of coy 'otes- He worked his way slowly down the valley toward Fairbanks and found many coyotes all along the way and out along the railroad to- ward Healey and Cantwell. More evidence of the animals was found on the Anchorage side of the summit, giving encouragement to the belief that they are invading the Territory over two routes, one being down the Panama valley toward Fairbanks and the other across the Alaska range toward Anchorage. There apparently is small area between Anchorage and Fairbanks, along the Alaska rail- road, which has net yet been invaded, hut Mir. Stewart believes that region also will be overrun shortly.
 Mir. Stewart came to Alaska to in- vestigate predatory game conditions, and in connection with this Work he is demonstrating methods of trapping coyotes and wolves showing .rarpcrs and prospectors where to place their sets and what to use to attract the animals. He has prepared two form ulas for this use and is arranging with drug stores in various towns visited, to supply local demands. It is

SANITARY EVOLUTION.

The course of sanitation, as out lined by Pierre Van Passen in his "World's S Window" has been slow and the point reached by. progress simply marvellous, says the Medical Times (New York;, which says:
 "In the case of the Puritan.C Calvin ist Dutch it was good hygienic form to wash one's hands frequently, one,s feet very seldom, ones head never. The washing of his feet was so extra ordinary an event in the life of Pepys that he marked it down in his diary as having occurred on May 30, 1868. A great event in 1649 was the coming to Paris of a Russian prince to have his teeth cleaned.
 "The kings of France had no bath rooms or washtables, and seldom washed at all. In 1780 a student in the theological school at Leipzig Uni- versity was not allowed to pass his examination for the doctors degree because of his modernism, which con- sisted in washing his whoae body; it was whispered that the miscreant act ually took baths. A Belgian medicau authority, in the eighteenth century. advised that if bathing is too difficult an undertaking, people ought to put on clean linen at least once every six weeks. It will be seen from the fore going that we are in an advanced state of sanitary evolution today and that there is no reason for pessimism regarding the matter of public hy- giene."

CARBON MELTED AT LAST.

The long@sought process of melting carbon, which has stood in the way of the manufacture of genuine diamonds, has been discovered by group of German chemists, according to Sci ence Services Daily Science News Bulletin, which says:
 Carbon has been one of the most heat-resistant. substances known, and for this reason has been used in arc lights and carbon filament lamps where . powerful current sent through this substance found such resistance that it raised it to white heat without melting. But the existence of dia- monds, which are pure crystallized carbon. tantalized chemists for years, because it proved that at some time in the past carbon had been in . molten state before it formed the transparent eight-faced diamond crys- tai. Graphite has been known for a long time and can be made artificially, but, unlike the diamond, it is softer, opaque, and forms six-faced crystals.

 A standard airway, as the section grades it, must be for the airplane what the highway is for the motorist. Dangers and difficulties ordinarily en- countered by the sky traveller must be reduced to minimum.
 A number of the sections of the airways thus far approved are lighted and equipped with with emergency with emergency landing fields at fre- quent intervals, with heacons to guide and fairways to alight upon if necessary, making flying almost as safe at night as by daylight.
