ensemble. They are no longer 2

Black kid is gaining much
favor, according to the designers.

stitching and piping. The cuffed

effect are preferred to the slip-on
models.
For those who prefer TO YEA

Four very new gloves are illus

cleverly shaped in the form of
diamonds.

the decorative demands or your

Next to bath salts comes the
choice of bath powder. Needless
to say, all bath powders should
have only the faintest fragrance
IL they are not to offend. Some
of them are entirely unscented.
Then, too, bath powder should be
SO placed that the most conscien-
tious guest will feel free to use
it. How many times I've noticed
bath powder tucked into the far
corner of the medicine chest with
the cover pressed firmly down as

many times I've missed not fol-

powder because of this.

Because to the woman who loves

TONY" KVAS GOING OUTSIDE AFTER 25
 YEARS IN ALASKA

Going to the Outside for the first time in over 20 years, Tony Kvas, sourdough character to the Westward and in the Interior, and at the present time proprietor of a restaurant in Kodiak, is aboard the Admiral Rogers, bound from Seward for Seattle and the East. Tony" as Kvas is known to all his acquaintances was a famil- jar sight during the boom days in the gold camps in the Interior, and it is said that it is few camps he has not visited during his mushings of the quarter-century he has lived in the Territory.
 Cleveland, Ohio, is the destina- tion of Kvas. He plans visiting relatives and old-time friends there for few weeks and then return to Alaska, which, as he says, is his adopted home country.

INDIAN WOMAN
 AND DAUGHTER
 ARE DROWNED

Mrs. Nellie Gamble, age 23 years and her adopted daughter. Irene age 3 years. Indian residents of Angoon, were drowned in Mitchell Bay, Kootznahoo Inlet, on January 15. A verdict of death by acci- dental drowning was returned by the Coroner's Jury which was com posed of the following citizens of Angoon; Eli Katawood, Mary D. Merilatt, Annie Scott, William Quick, George R. Betts, Samuel G. Johnson, and William John.
 The testimony was given to the Co1oner's Jury by John Gamble. husband of the deceased, and by Louis Wright. her cousin, to the effect that Mrs. Gamble and Irene accompanied them on the gas boat Robert Barron, on the morning Of January 15, when they were going out to lay their traps. Upon ar irving in Mitchell Bay, they drop ped anchor and the two men went ashore in the only tender on the boat and did not return until about S.30 o'clock in the afternoon al which time they were greatly surprised to find that Mrs. Gamble and the baby were not aboard the Robert Barron. They immediate iy began to investigate and found the baby's shoes and stockings on the bow of the boat; an Ameri- can flag hanging across the door of the pilot house; several articles spread out on the bunk of the pilot house as if they were being aired or dried; and fire still burning in the stove with a pot of hot coffee on top of the stove. The thought occurred to them that possibly someone in the family had taken i'll and that Mrs. Gamble's father had come after her and so, acting upon this presumption, they immediately proceeded to Angoon only to find that Mrs Gamble had not been seen since that morning. The Robert Barron. accompan- jed by the U-and-I and by the Mer- rimac, returned to Mitchell Bay and after searching the waters nearby they found the body of the baby floating near the shore, and about an hour later the body of Mrs. Gambell was found in five or six feet of water. The baby was fully clothed with the exception of her feet, which were bare; and the woman was dressed in over alls. No bruises, decorations, O. any marks of violence were found on the body of Mrs. Gamble, and she and her adopted daughter had presumably been in the water fol about ten hours.

BAND DANCE
 ON SATURDAY

For the first time in two years, dancers will enjoy waltzing or foxtrotting to music of a brass band when the Juneau City Band gives it second annual dance in Elks' Hall next Saturday night. Of the many dances given in Ju- neau during recent months, none perhaps has caused so much att tention as the band event for there is an opportunity to hear and dance to real music with all of the harmony written by the composers of the various selec- tions.
 Juneaus musical organization is enc to be proud of and the band boys who have hung to- gether for the past seven years appreciate the genuine support accorded at all times.
 The arrangement of dance se- lections for next Saturday night ' has been taken from a series of dances given by various band or ganizations throughout the Unit ed States and includes popular numbers of the day with old time lfavorites.
 Tickets can be obtained from i the band members, at Butler Mauro Drug Store or at the dooi on the night of the dance.

OLD FOLKS SAY
DR.. CALDWELL
WAS RIGHT

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, biiousness,
headaches, mental depression, indigestion,
sour stomach and other indispQsitions
entirely by means Of simple vegetable
laxatiyes, herbs and roots. These are
still the basis of DR.. Caldwells Syrup
Pepsin, a combination of SIENNA and
other mild herbs, with pepsin.
The simpler thelremedy for constipa
ton, the safer for the child and for you.
And rs you can get results in a mild
and safe way by using Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, why take chances with
strong drugs?
A bottle will last several months, and
all can use it. 1t is pleasant to the
taste, gentle in action, and free from
narcotics. Elderly people find it ideal.
All drug stores have the generous bottles,
