ing irritation on my back, princi-

also on the back of my hands, ex.
tending to the shoulders. The skin

After a vigorous rubbing with q
Turkish towel there would appear
two spots, about an inch apart,
which bled from the effects Of the
rubbing. ] used Bay Rum and

back received thorough washing
with Resinol Soap and a very gem
erous application Of Ointment, after
which / would rest quite connforta-
bly, until about two or three in the
morning, when I received another
application. A third upon arising

MY TOWN"

A person should take pride In
 the town where he lives. If he cannot. because of gross blemishes,
 take pride in 1t. there Is only one thing that a true man can do, and that is thoughtfully and indus triously work to make the town better.
 The thing we have in mind is this, There is something gravely | wrong and out of point within the life of a person who continually finds fault with the place where he lives" 10 put it in it's simplest form, the place feeds, clothes him, and gives him a home Now that is so central in ones life that a person not loyal here is falling down in one of his major obliga- tions.
 There is something wrong with the man who always knocks every thing local. He sees no good. The people are not to his liking, the institutions are "dead ones." The whole place is "bum." It is a
 The easiest thing to say to man like that is to suggest that in following out the simple logic of his thoughts he just moves on. "Go some place else where things are more to your liking" But that, of course, would not be fair or kind. And, too, a moments thought will bring out the truth of the matter to a person like that, any place would soon become a place like the place he thinks the present home to be. It is in the person.
 What then? Why this: Work to make your town better. Be- lieve in it. In simple straightfor- wardness bring yourself to think 1t is good place. And you will be surprised to find how quickly and truly it becomes a good place. The people will become good folks" The institutions will appear in the true light of simply struggling to be what they ought to be. The spirit of the place will change and be like your own improved spirit
 It isn't your town. it's you. And the place will no longer be "bum town" It will become to you in a very fine way "My Town"
 Every truly good citizen believes in his own town. He takes pride
 in it. He works for 1t: He boosts | it.

Captain A. F. Crowley, one of the owners of the Dry creek dredge had a narrow escape from being shot in the head last Tuesday when bullet from a gun fired by some unknown person on the tundra just whizzed by his ear. Two shots were fired and both shots passed through the window where Capt. Crowley was standing, and only through sheer luck of being half an inch of, his life was saved. This article is printed with the object in view that it might prevent a similar occurrance. and a warning to gun men, and hunters in gener- al. that it is better to lose shot at some small bird, than to take a chance of shooting some prospect or or mining man. who is trying to do something to stimulate the resources of the country. There is really nothing bigger than a Sutp6 tO SuVOt ct, oS tnAo SS&SoAA OA the year. unless someone is trying to break the law, and if anyone is caught breaking the law and shoot ing eyes out of some prospector or 1 mining man, it is possible that ; guy will need no trial by jury
 it may be simply a neck-tie part,
 where lawyers and courts do not figure in rendering justice. It vii
 be the old miners law" that will
 render justice. and see that tht
 verdict is in keeping with thu
 crime. We do not know whether
 the parties responsible for
 1 shooting were white men or na
 tives. but nevertheless the punish ] ment will be just as severe.

Attention is called to the Act re. lating to transportation and as- sistance to prospectors." If there are any prOspectors needing assist. ance in the way of transportation for themselves or their supplies to out of the way places. they may receive assistance from the Terri tory under the aforementioned Act. Quite a number of prospectors in other localities are aveiling them selves of the provisions of this Act. and application forms have been mailed to Representative Thomas Gaffney of the Second Division. Owing to the fact that Mir. Ga6ney is in the Solomon section, the pub .ishtr ,, the Nugget will endeavor to procure forms of application
 ,nis class of matter if there is found to be any need for same. Under the law any prospector may receive s15O.00 assis anIce from the Territory for transportation of his supplies to any given point where transportation is needed. in con nection with his prospecting activi- ties.

Miss June McNichol. who filled the position of stenographer at the Miners and Merchants Bank last winter. and who left Nome some two or three weeks ago for St
 Michael enroute to the Outside via the Yukon River route, has had con siderable experience in making connections with river steamers. Miss McNichol. after reaching St. Michael decided to return to Cna- lakleet and mush across the port age to kaltag where she expected to catch one of the river steamers. but fate seemed to be against her, and the young lady was delayed by no steamers arriving at that point Finally, Miss McNichcl 'el- ographed to Nome and made ar engagements with Joe Crossen to pick her up by airplane at Nulato a few days ago, and as conse- quence she was able to make con- netcions with the train leaving Fairbanks for Seward Friday. The service on the lower Yukon, ac- cording to all the passengers arriv- ing in Nome thfs season, is sim ply "rotten." and they say 1t is simply ridiculous to encourage travel by the lower Yukon route.
