verse and are later Set in music. This furnishes another obstacle for the composer. as the corresponding lines of the various stanzas may not have exactly the same meter. Where word followed by comma or semi colon may occur in one stanza, the corresponding syllable in the next may contain the first half of word, and it becomes lneX- pedient to make the note too long q one. II IS frequently impossible 10 devise a tune which will meet the requirements fall stanzas, Profes- sor Baumgarter says, and the com poser then has to compromise and suit his music to either the ma jor- lty or to the first stanza, which is usually sung most often.
 Professor Baumgarter finds faul: with many hymns beca Use of their unnecessary repetition of words and phrases. Such instances, he says, are due to sheer laziness on the part Of the composer, as it would require only u little thought to create mu- sic fitting the words without repeat ing. Ofen this results in stronger music, he claims, but in many hymns the easier course IS taken
 Contrary to the belief that a hymn depends upon it's air for its beauty, the Yale instructor says that frequently It is the bass which makes Or breaks a composition. Any hymn with d bass of rugged strength is satisfactory he says, whereas too many hymns now in use have bass with those of the air.
 Suitability of the tune Of both theme and church must also be con sidered. A song expressing joy or praise must naturally have music Of a different character from one of prayer or an evening hymn. Fur ther, there arc many tempos which are not suited 10 religious music. This has not be recognized by all composers, for many hymns in Pro- lessor Baumsarter's collection sound more like waltzes. spring songs, or Sousa marches than like church nu- sic. He even has one which bears re- sembance in its tempo to Turkey in the Straw" Hymns, he believes, should not be written in 6S or ia ster time.
 Professor Baumgartncr has writ ten numerous hymns and other pieces Of choral music and is all au- thority on music theory. He IS 6 Cla ssmate Of Rev. Alfred D. Heln- finger. associate pastor of the First church Of this city.

 using their canoes. He said he planned to go to the Indian village immediately to get their aid.
 Upon arrival at the Stevens camp, farther down stream. and finding no one, there, Lindfors left a note in which he. explained that his partner had.lost his life and that he was then . on, his way hack to his own camp at : the mine in order that he might con- < tinue his search for the body of Kirk. That. was the last seen or heard of Lindfors.
 :. In the-meantime two boys had been dispatched te~the camp of Lindfors and Kirk to. inform them that a steamer>would pass down the Kusko- :, kwiim >within a few days, affording the. man. opportunity to ship theiir auicksiIvex to the States. There was no4one at the mine camp when the boys.arEived ,there. but note, written by Lindfors, was found, stating that Kirk,s dog had returned to camp drag ging his chain, indicating that some thing had happened to Kirk, and that he was starting out to hunt for him. It is thought that Lindfors saw the tracks of these boyson the trail lead ing to the mine after he had left the Stevens camp, and, fearing that an in- vestigation had been. started, took :, flight either to the Yukon river or the Kuskokwim without returning to his camp.

with -Lindfors in lease of the prop erty of the Thrift Mining Company. There were four of them in on this lease, Fullerton and Ivan Wales being the other two, and they had taken out about fifty tons of cinnabar ore when they encountered a fault and threw up their lease. Brink, Lindfers and Wales then began prospecting, and were rewarded by finding some rich ore a short distance down the hill from the Thrift property, and~sthev located several claims. Fullerton, who left for the States about < that time, was delegated to negotiate with the Thrift company for the purcsas, ,of their plant flor use on theSs* new ground, but he died before the deal was made.
 Later it was discovered by Brink that Lindfors was trying to double cross him and Wales and had, in fact, chopped their names from the stakes and had the claims recorded in his own name and that of Fullerton. Brink and Lindfors had worked to- gether on the new property for some little time, the former being engaged in moving some retorts to the claims, whilethe latter drove.a tunnel into the hill to tap one of the ore bodies dis covered. The tunnel was a failure, however, and the two men then began sinking on the ore and had taken out a considerable quantity of it when Brink decided to pull out. Hummel took his place, and after Lindfors had chased him off the property Kirk was induced to join Lindfors. They re- mained together until both disap- peared last spring.
 Brink still retains his interest in the property and hopes to interest capital in it's development as soon as the present muddle is strengthened out and titles set right. The property is situated about eight miles from the Iditarod river, above the town of Idit- arod, and about 22 miles from the Kuskokwim river. It is believed that it is the only Worthwhile cinnabar propertty in Alaska.

 Find Bones in Furnace.
 Deputy Kincaid left Flat last. Au- guest for the quicksilver mine, accom- panied by. Jack Richardson and an other man. They travelled across country, distance of about sixty miles, and upon arrival at the mine began a thorough investigation, which resulteed in the discovery of some bones in one of the furnaces used for retorting the quicksilver. These bones, weighing about two pounds, were sent to Fairbanks and tested at the Alaska College, where, it is said, they were found to be the bones of human It is understood that the bones have since then been sent to Washington, D. C., for fur ther examination, but the results ob- tained there, if any, have not been made public.
 The finding of the bones and the disappearance of Lindfors with the proceeds of the sale of the first ship ment of quicksilver very naturally have given encouragement to the sus- picion that Kirk was murdered and an effort made to dispose of the body by cremating it in the furnace. The theory is that Kirk refused to consent to Lindfors' pan to take the second shipment of quicksilver to the States and that Lindfors killed him and then Red when he thought his drowning story was not believed.
 Lindfors had chased Bill Hummel from the property before Kirk be- came associated with him; he had quarreled with Kirk when thee were engaged in mining some time previ- ously on Ophir; Harry Brink, who is at present in Anchorage, and who IS one of the owners of the quicksilver property, also wsrked with Lindfors when they were first engaged in de- veloping the ground, but was not able to get along with. him.
 It is also stated that Lindfors sold considerable oil stock to residents of the railroad belt several years ago, the sales having been made after drilling operations in the Katalla field mad been abandoned by the company he represented. After becoming in terested .irf the quicksilver mine he promised to return somd of', this money, but it is claimed he never did iso.
 At the time Lindfors disappeared there were about -65 ~fasks of quick silver ready for shipment, and these were sent Outside on. the last boat last fall by Al Walsh, who was dele gated to de so by Harry Donnelley, administrator appointed to wind up the affairs of the missing men. Lind fors owned .an interest in the prop erty as we'll as the quicksilver, and it is hoped there will be sufficient funds available eventually to pay off all the debts.

The fact that the smartlystyled

In curing pork scrupuleus care and
cleanliness are fully as essential as
the salt, sugar and saltpeter. K. f..
Warner, meat specialist of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
elaborates this point.
Zone hundred pounds of meat" he
says, "can be cured with three pounds
of salt or twelve pounds of salt and
widely varying amounts of sugar and
saltpeter, but unless carefulness is in
cluded, the resulting product will be
neither economical nor palatable. The
boys complain considerably nowadays
about the fusSy crankineSS with which
grandpa puts the meat in cure, but
grandpa learned his lesson in the hard
school of experience, and he knows that
unless meat is put down with care, re-
fined almost to the degree of crank
mess, the result will be unsatisfac-
tory"
Mr.. Warner also calls attention to
the fact that the home butcher should
select the animals for slaughter with a
view to the weight and quality of meat
desired. Where lard and sausage
are the products desired, very large
and very fat hogs will serve, but when
shoulders, hams and loins are desired
these will be in proportion to the
weight of the animal. A trimmed ham
will weigh about Z per cent of the live
weight. If the family can make eco

Drugs Excite
the Kidneys,
Drink Water
Take Salts at First Sign of
Bladder Irritation or
Backache

The American men and women must
guard constantly against kidney
trouble because we often eat too much
rich food. Our blood is filled with
acids which the kidneys strive TO
filter out; they weaken from over
work, become sluggish, the elimina-
tive tissues clog and the result is kid
ney trouble, bladder weakness and
q general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps
of lead; your back hurts or the urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night; if you suffer
with sick headache, or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or if yuu have
rheumatism when the weather is bad,
begin drinking lots of good soft water
and get from your pharmacist about
four ounces of Jad Salts. Take q
tablespoonful in a glass of water be-
fore breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys may then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for years to help flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys, to neutralize the
acids in the system so they no longer
are a source of irritation, thus often
relieving bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure, makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink and belongs in every
home, because nobody can make a
mistake by having a good kidney
flushing any time.

The basis of treating sickness has not
changed since DR.. Caldwell left Medical
College in 1875, nor since he placed on
the market the laxative prescription he
had used in his practice.
He treated constipation, biliousness,
headaches, mental depression, Indigestion,

entirely by means of simple vegetable
laxatives, herbs and roots. These are
still the basis of DIR. Caldwell's Syrup
