Ashtoreth~ And when I discovered
he was bootlegging, 1 said, No, SIR
I said, I amt going to get mixed
up in any of that stuff And I give
him the go-by, just like that.
And, the big stiff, he's got a real
sporty car now, with wire wheels
and one of them French honors. And
he's runnin' round with that doll

Ashtoreth Sympathized wanly.
But why did you give up the
apartment, Sadie? I thought you
were awfully happy"
"Oh, you don't know how 1t Is,
living with bunch of girls. Every
one wants first parking privileges.
And when it got so they froze on
to my divan for petting, and
George and I had to while away
our time out in the kitchen-wny,
you can't blame me, Ash, for getting
sort of sore, can you?"
But what did you do with your
furniture?" asked Ashtoreth.
"Oh, I sold some" Sadie was
airily casual. "You see I'm out of a
job right now, Ash. And girls got
to dress. You can't blame me for
wanting some new clothes once in
a while, now can you?"
"Sadie's sleeping with me-" broke
in Maize conciliatingly. And I
got a nice new set of blankets for

She indicated verse, framed and

DWARF DALLAS AS SUBSTITUTE
 FOR ROSES.

The dwarf dahla will come into favor as a substitute for the rose when roses scarce daha experts predict The massive flowers dominate now Eight thousand varieties of the dahlia it is esti- mated, are or have been in cultivation.
 The dahlia favorite ornamental of the American house and garden is winning increased popularity in both the United States and Canada, according to Dr. Marshall A. Howe Acting Director in Chief of the New York Bontanical Garden, and a na- tionally known dahlia expert
 "The dahlia," says pr. Howe "is invading the mountains and seacoast of our Southern States as well as the coastal regions of British Columbia and Alaska, where cool summers and plenty of moisture combine to produce flowers of exceptional size and beauty
 pr. Howe attributes public favor to the beauty and diversity of the flowers in both form and color and the persistence under favorable cond- tions of the earlier and freer rflowering vaietes, which provide flowers for two three months until they succumb to the frost of October and November

JACKS CASTLE By Mary Graham Bonner

Jack Frost was wearing a white suit with fringy edges and a long, funny cap that hung down his back
 From his cuffs and around his collar and the tops of his boots were fringy edges of white. He looked very much like handsome creature made out of frost-but very stylish and very dashing in spite of his untidiness.
 50 you've brought them to call on me-" Jack Frost said. And as he spoke you could see his breath.
 Its chilly" Peggy thought as she tucked her sweater up at the collar.
 well, I'll show you around D Jack said. And he took them over his castle.
 They saw the workers he had. They were planning some of the new patterns for window decora- tions this year, and they were choosing the colors they would paint the trees.
 They were planning which flow CTS they would nip first, and which they would not put to sleep until later.
 You're back in the time Jack  Frost was first laying out his work" the Little Black Clock said. "Rut he continues to work out his first plans year after year. He says they are quite satisfactory, and he will keep his same workers, too. :
 Jack Frost now showed them how he would send his people all over the world to do their duties.
 Don't say you don't like us. Our work, you must admit, is beautiful. If it were not for us you wouldn't have chestnuts. If it were not for us you wouldn't have lovely painted trees.
 We're going to get started soon now The frosty brushes for win dow painting are all ready. Every thing is at hand"
 So Peggy and John walked about Jack Frost's castle which was his headquarters, and they saw every thing being made ready.

ito the Territory through four long years of un- diluted effort In scores on scores of instances Gov Parks has helped Alaska over obstacles and paved the way for progress in many other instances and directions. Through intimate knowledge ot Alaska and the problems of government through his experience and engineering education, through the single -mindedness of his unceasing industry, Gov Parks has proved himself to be the right man in the right place. Always fair, always square and always having the good of Alaska and her permanent welfare in mind, Gov. Parks has been a plugger the job and he has got tangible results.
 And the Juneau Chamber of Commerce is en- titled to the praise Gov. Parks bestowed upon it. The organization has worked honestly and intelli- gently without regard section faction for the advancement of Alaska, and it has supported Gov. Parks in his work as he deserved to be supported. The Juneau Chamber of Commerce is composed of wonderful body of intelligent and unselfish workers for the common veal. It has accomplished a lot of good in the last dozen years more, and it takes no prophet to predict that it will do lot more.

No "Ghost" Cities.
Seward Gatcway.)


 Those dsgruntled and pessimists who harp on the fact that Alaskas population has been dwindng (which is probably not the at pres ent and who says Alaskas gold supply is prac- tically exhausted; that there will never be any big gold camps in the Territory will get pleasure from the report of the Director of the Mint which shows that Alaska second in gold production in 1928 taking second place to Cali fornia and that the gold output for the entire Nation should show increase of nearly million dollars
 California, with inhabitants numbered in mil lions produced 523 429 ounces of gold while Alaska with inhabitants numbered in thousands produced GOA ounces. As per capita showing Alaska un- doubtedly beats any part of the country in the amount of gold mined per person in spite of the difficulties of the game in this Northern country
 Although some of the bonanza camps had their hectic days of great production and sank into de- cline because they could mine only the richest deposits, notably Nome and Fairbanks, these camps are rapidly coming back and Fairbanks will un- doubtedly add another $150000000 to the flood of wealth she poured out in the boom days. Nome is increasing her production again this year as new methods being adopted, and there is scarce ly a camp in Alaska that is not holding it's own or is on the upgrade.
 There are no Ghost Cities in Alaska In ad- dition there the fields that are being added to the list of potential producers every year indicating to any fair-minded man that the dis semination of precious metals throughout Alaska is almost universal. particularly gold and only an ngrained, pessmistc "diehard" would prophecy that there will be no more big gold camps in this great Territory

ALASKA IS sIxTY-Two TODAY.

Alaska is today celebrating the sxty-second an- nversary of the occupation of this Territory by the United States It was on October lo 1a67 that the Stars and Stripes were raised at Stka by Gen. Rousseau signfying that this had become an Am erican possession. The Alaska Legislature has com menorated the occasion by making the 18th ot october a holiday - Alaska Day the Territorial birthday.
 Alaska Day must not be confused with Seward Day that occurs on the 30th of March. Seward Day commentaries the signing of the treaty of purchase which was done March 3O 1867.

Eastern Canada Also Interested.
(Prince Rupert Empire)

Eastern Canada is also showing a lively inter est in Premier Tolmies plan for a road through British Columbia from the United States to Alaska. Not the least of the many advantages that such a road would bring, would be the giving to Yukon, of a Canadian outlet-something which it does not possess today.

After they have gone to all the trouble to make it so that Wilhelm Hohenzolern, erstwhile Kaiser Wilhelm H. might live in Germany, if he would wish to do so, he says he will never go back except as Kaiser Which means that he declines to accept the privilege that offered him, for he will never again be Kaiser.

Credit Conditions Easier.
Credit conditions were regarded as
one of the brighter aspects of the situa-
ton There was no call money market

the week end, but bankers stated that
a huge amount of credit had been
liberated, which would probably be

foreign takings of gold appeared to
have been removed. Sterling cables
