Mixes Cyanide Draught
 But Police Interfere

When Officer Louis E. Harper ar rived at 21S Pleasant street Satur- day evening, Carl Schnieder was stirring something in a small jar, It was a poison, and, if the officer had not arrived just when he did. Carl would have swallowed his mix lure, the policeman reported.
 Carl was mixing cyanide tablets. He had arrived home drunk, it is said. There was the usual argument. His family objected to something. Carl cried, got out his tablets and began to mix. His wife called the police.
 Today the mixture sits on a win dow sill in the police station. Officers say that it is strong enough to kill almost an army of men.

THREE CANDIDATES
 FOR jGovERNoRSHIP

Recent Outside reports say a second candidate has entered the race against Governor Geo. A. Parks for the governorship of Alaska, in the person of Capt. Alfred D. Williams, who is said to have resided in the Territory for 31 years. Will jams claims to have the SUD- port of Senators Borah of Ida ho and Reed of Pennsylvania.

He has the backing of the national committeeman of the southwest. Gov. Parks, whose term expires June 1 next, is expected to be a candidate and will probably have the backing of Dr Hubert Work, who recommended him for the position while secretary of the interior and is now chairman of the republican national com- mittee.

About 500 caribou are said to have been seen during the trip, in addition to nine moose. On another occasion the observ- CTS counted 20 moose, 12 of the animals being in pairs. The moose paid practically no att tention to the plane, although lifting their heads occasional ly to look at the strange bird, but usually betrayed no signs of fright. The caribou, howev- CT, became alarmed at sight of the plane and ran away. The tracks and trails of the ani- mals were plainly visible from a considerable height.

SERVICE I'm BUSINESS

CERVICE in business means more
- than merely satisfying public
need. IN his interesting lecture.
Acres Of Diamonds" DR.. Russell Con
well relates an experience which oc-
Cured when he was young man
clerking in store. A customer de.
sired TO purchase a Jack knife, but
there were no jack knives in the store
for sale. Another customer who de.
sired the same article left the store
dissatisfied. BY the time the third
customer asked for the same article
plenty OF Jack knives were on the
counter for sale.
While the public creates the demand
which business must satisfy, Service
implies more than just satisfying this
demand. Service In business should
create spirit of good will, of per.
sonal Interest, mutual trust and COM
radeship. Service demands not only
that the customer be furnished with
jack knife when he asks for 1t, but
also, that when he desires another one
ne will return to the same counter for
it. The most important thing is not
that transaction was made that may
have brought profit to the dealer,
but that through that satisfaction

Frick First Motorist
Taken in Speed Trap

The first automobile speeder and
the first speed trap in the New Eng
land district were described in the
Boston Post. Condensed, II happened
in 1857. In this wise:
The speeder, in his little high
wheeled eontraptlon, was roaring
tlewn Arlington street, going every bit
as fast as some modern concrete mix
ers and making an equal amount of
noise. The legal limit was ten miles
an hour and the local police chief
told the court his prisoner had been
making eighteen.
"Were you?" inquired the Judge.
"Why, your honor, my motor car
won't even make the ten-mile limit :"
protested the driver The strange
part Of II is that The judge believed
the driver and discharged him.
To maintain his reputation for
veracity, The police chief secretly
measured off a quarter mile, got two
good stop watches and with the aid
of a sergeant, set out to catch con
scienceless Automobiles. The first
victim was Henry Frick, the big steel
manufacturer This time there was
indisputable evidence of speeding
twenty-five miles an hour cost Mr.
Prick just $50.

Service in business has a sort of
plus value. Ii is n sort of spirit
which satisfies a public in such way
that ii creates good will. The old pol
icy of IAN eye for an eye and a tooth

creed of a successful business career.
Self-preservation is not the first law
of life in the realm of human values,
and business is more concerned with
human than material values.
The most serious loss to any bust
ness concern is not money but salts

the modern business world where one
concern endeavors to secure advan-
tage at the expense of Its competitor,
the element which ultimately wins is
something more than the quality of
