.AIRPLANE DOPE.

Pilot Noel Wien has, been pre- vented the past two days from taking off for Candle by stormy weather, which still continues.
 At the present time, besides the trip to Candle, there are three men who want to fly to the Ser pentine Hot Springs; another pas senger for Teller, and two for Col ovin, before the return flight to Fairbanks is made, at which time two or three passengers will make the trip.
 Just when the weather will clear up, we are unable to tell the numerous persons who are making inquiries: we have not as yet been listed in Ayres Almanac, as wea- ther prophets. bat you can take it from us that when the sun be gins to shine all day, you can look forward to airplane activity.

In London one day George Francis
Train saw a man searching for an
eraser He had written with a lead
pencil something which he wished to
change.
why don't you attach an eraser to
the pencil?" asked Train.
The man got out patent and made
a fortune. Train himself wasn't interes-
ted in money-making He knew all
about the process and was interested
in other things. If ever human mind
worked faster or more furiously than
this former Bostonian's, history has
not recorded 1t.
Reared on his grandmother'S farm at
Waltham, Mass, he started work in
the shipping Office of his uncle, Enoch
Train, in Boston, when he was Is.
BY the time he was 20 he had OBJ
tanned an interest in the business that
brought him $4,000 a year.
The California gold boom found him
wide-awake. He created q sailing fleet
of 40 ships for the California trade.
Next he went to Australia during the
gold strike there. He established a
shipping and commission house that
soon was bringing him in nearly
100000 annually.
He now showed up in Europe. His
money opened all doors to him. Hand
some, magnetic. dashing, he kept them
open. He became the friend of Ma
poleon III and the Empress Eugene
of France and of Queen Maria Chris
tina of Spain. After the war he pro-
iected the Union Pacific Railway and
founded the city of Omaha. While in
Omaha he complained to the proprietor
of hotel about his service. go build

face rudely. Train did-in so days.
In 1872 he announced himself can

States. With his usual rashness he de-
Tended the free love theories of the then
famous Virginia woodruff. Jailed and
charged with insanity he was tried and
adjudged unbalanced. He appealed,
however, and got a reversal.
While all this was going on he lost
much of his money. However. he had
lost interest in money making He now
devoted himself to being a crank"
He lived in a Mills hotel on three dol

diet. and wrote and spoke things no
body else dared to sponsor.

A Sermon for Today
"Yet I Will Rejoice. "

joice in the Lord. "-Hab. iii.l7-i8.
Although what? Although the fig
tree shall not blossom, neither shall
fruit be in the vines; the labor of the
olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield
no meat; the flock shall be cut of from
the fold, and there shall be no herd In
the stall"
A pretty bad situation. The fruit
The meat supply cut off. A general
shortage of all food supplies. A famine
and starvation threatened. yet I will
rejoice in the Lord" says the man Of
faith.
Said Charles Dickens: Troubles are
exceedingly gregarious in their nature,
and flying In flocks are apt to perch
capriciously." It seems as though when
a man has an adverse turn in his
affairs, misfortunes heap up upon him.
A comment often made regarding this
is, ct never rains but what 1t pours. Z"
"Yet will rejoice" Better to rejoice
than to rebel. Better to whistle than
to whine. Your troubles will not hurt
you unless you allow them to harden
you, and make you sour and bitter and
skeptical IT will rejoice-in the Lord. "
If you have rejoiced in the Lord in the
day of prosperity. you ought to be able
to rejoice in Him in the day of adversely.
If He permits you to walk in the dark,
remember the apt words of Carlyle:
THE eternal stars shine out as soon as
it is dark enough"
Of all the times when you need to
be cheerful, 1t is when your troubles
are many and great. What ever dis
asters befall you, no matter what de-
feats you suffer, let your response to
it all be-"Yet I will rejoice"

June IL, IS8O.-The bill for the con-
struction of new bridge across the
Potomac River at or near Georgetown
was passed by the Senate today with
the committee amendments. 1t has
already been passed by the House,
which is expected to accept the Senate
am endments, so that the measure will
probably soon become a law.
| The bill provides for the conStruc-
ton, under the direction of the Secre-
! ta-y Of War, of a Substantial iron
and masonry bridge with approaches. "
The sum of $150,000 is appropriated
for the work It is required that the
| structure shall be maintained as a
| free bridge
/ A draw must be constructed of suffi-
Gent width to permit the free passage
Of vessels navigating that part of the
river, unless the new bridge shall be
constructed upon, or by the side Of,
or UP the river from the present aque-
duct and at the same or greater ele-
walton above the water.
1t Is stipulated that no steam power
shall be used on the new bridge or its
approaches.
If he so determines, the Secretary of
War is authorized to build the new
bridge upon the piers of the Alexan-
dria\ canal, or to use the present
WOOucIl UIluBS OH SUCH piers DIS IOh6
as 1t can be so used conveniently and
safely, and afterward to build and
maintain a new bridge upon those
piers; provided, however, that the
present bridge and piers can be pur-
chased for 100000 of the amount
appropriated in the bill for the pro-
posed new bridge. In the event of
the purchase of the old wooden bridge,
the Secretary of War is authorized to
repair it at a cost of $4,000.
The new bridge is not to interfere
with the Alexandria canal and shall
be strong enough and SO constructed
as to allow the trough or trunk Of the
canal to rest securely thereon, but 1t
is provided that the United States
Government shall not be charged with
the expense of building or maintain
ing this canal trough.
The Commissioners are very much
gratified at the recent increase in the
District revenues. For a number OF
years prior to 1878 the receipts from
licenses fell off, due chiefly to the
evasion of the license laws, which had
become quite general.
About Is months ago the Commits
sioners designated C. S. Jones to give
his entire attention, as license inspec-
tor, to those who were evading the
law with the result that the total
liquor licenses alone have jumped from
about $4,000 to about $4,000.

Vanished Splendor

This anecdote is strictly true: Some
years ago man I knew, who earned
much coin of every brand, his services
were in demand. And while he gath
cred in the dough he strove to be
sort Of beau; his big fur coat gave him
the air Of a distinguished millionaire;
he wore lot of diamond rings and all
such plutocratic things; he had more
clothes than he could count. which
cost a fabulous amount. He blew his
cash for doodads fine, and never had
q cent in brine I used to lecture him
at times, I argued he should save his
dimes. Your graft is excellent" /
said. but any day may see it dead;
some younger man may take your place,
and leave you crippled in the race.
Your friends and clients may get tired
of seeing you so much admired; a
hundred evil things may chance TO
spoil your merry song and dance. and
buy the bacon and the ,spuds, you'll be
surprised how little cash you'll get for
all that flossy trash" "You are" he
said. "a dreadful bore; you make me
tired, you make me sore. While
through this world dance and sing I'll
strive to emulate king, and always be
on dress parade, and eat the choicest
marmalade. and wear such suits and
stovepipe hats as are reserved for plu-
tocrats." The other day he wrote to
me, a letter bleak and sad to see. A
poorhouse in the Middle West has
gathered him, signing guest. There
he Is doomed to end his days with

Thin Hair.
Dear Miss Leeds: am 10 years old
My hair is thin and very fine and
grows very slowly How can I make it
grow faster? I am feet inches tall
and weigh 1879 pounds.
MISS NINETEEN.
Answer.-It is not possible to change
the texture of the hair from fine to
coarse. but you may stimulate its growth
SO that 1t will be more abundant. Make
point of n1asSaging your scalp for at
least 10 minutes each day. Do not just
rub the surface of the scalp, but move
the scalp over the skull; loosen up the
scalp. If the scalp is of the dry type,
rub little castor oil into it every night.
Before your shampoo have hot oil
treatment with mixture of equal parts
OF mineral oil and castor oil.
Apply the oil warm to the scalp,
steam it in with several hot towels APP
Piled successfully, then shampoo with
pure CASTLE soap. Lather and rinse
three separate times before the final
rinse. You may apply a stimulating
scalp tonic before the hair has dried
entirely: I cannot very well prescribe
a particular tonic without knowing
whether your hair is oily or dry, and
It's color. Give your hair an air bath
daily-that Is, shake and fan 1t SO that
the air can get to the roots. Shake it
IN the sunlight also for a few minutes
daily.
You are about IS pounds above the
average weight for your age and height
Perhaps your diet is too rich in
starches, sugars, fats and meats. You
need an adequate amount of these
foods, but you must not forget to eat
a. large proportion of fresh fruits and
non-starchy vegetables also. Keep your
digestive tract in order and build up
radiant health. LOIS LEEDS P

Children eat more sandwiches today than
ever before. And it is just plain common
sense that in those sandwiches there ought
to be the very best of food materials. They
ought also to be tasty, because when children
eat food with a relish they digest it NOR
easily.
Not only is Bond Bread made of the purest
and finest ingredients, but it is close-baked
The texture is firm. There are more bread
cells to the slice; and hence more nourist-
ment in each bite
Then there is the flavor of it, so home-like
that many women tell me they can see no
difference between it and the flavor of their
best home-baked.
Another thing about Bond Bread sand
witches is that they keep fresh. Children
opening their lunch boxes hours after the

and tasty.
