 BEACH E0TD
 For many vears they have been taking out beach gold along th5 beaches near tha mouth of Red River at the south end of Kodiak There are thtrty riles of black beach sands, vhirh the action of the Seas frequently washes into gold pockets where men have taken out thousands in a few feet of ground The great mass of the stuff carrying gold is of such low grade that it would only go a few cents a yard and the conditions are such, with the sea rolling in constantly, that it seems impos- sible to handle the material On a paying basis. A dredge would not live in those waters, and any work done on the beach is at once vashed out by high tides At tha- Fred Henton and associates of Ko- diak who went down there last Summer shipped south several tons of black sand to the smelter lon the last trip down of the Vic- toria.

Grange Progress Of the Year
In his summary OF Grange affairs
National Master Taber points out
that 345 new Subordinate, Pomona
and Juvenile Oranges have been or
ganized during the past year; that
a substantial net gain in national
membership has been made. with
finances in very satisfactory condi-
ton; that South Carolina has been
organized into the national coun-
ellis of the Order, with a splendid
years progress in the new states of
Virginia and North Carolina; with
many new Grange halls built and
large classes everywhere initiated;
and in the entire membership in 33
states, from Atlantic to Pacific, a
growing realization of Grange pow
er for service and an increasing de-
termination to translate that power
into a mighty rural agency for
good.

QUICK RELIEF FOR
COUGHING SPELLS
Famous Prescription Stops Them
Almost Instantly

The amazing success of this pre-
scriptiOn called Thoxine is due to
its quick double action; it immedi-
ately soothes the irritation and goes
direct to the internal cause not
reached by ordinary medicines. The
very first swallow usually stops even
the most obstinate cough.
Thoxine is pleasant tasting and
safe for the whole family. Your
money will be refunded if it does
not give better and quicker relief
for coughs or sore throat than any
thing you have ever tried. Put up
ready for use in 35c, 60c, and $1.0O
bottles. Sold by Pettyjohn's Phar-
macy, Milford Del, and all other

Much stress is laid upon the cal
for greater rural beautification-tht
planting of trees and shrubbery
around public buildings, upon town
commons, and especially such beau
tification program around Grange
halls, of which there are nearly g.
300 in the United States. The men,
ace of unsightly billboards is vigor-
ously pointed out and an energetic
campaign in this direction is urged.
Lack of interest among the regis
tered voters in America is deplored,
as shown by the relatively small
number who vote each year. 1.-The
tragedy of recent years has been the
lack of interest of the better class
of our people in the problems of
government. If politics be corrupt,
if the chosen representatives of the
people are faithless to their trust,
then the citizenship itself is to
blame"
Temperance and Progress
Mr.. Taber characterizes the Eigh-
teenth Amendment as "the greatest
moral reform of the century" and it
must be sustained. Declaring that
its supporters must awaken or they
will lose the fruits of their great
victory, this Grange leader asserts:
"a large group of those demand
ing prohibition repeal are actuated
solely by mercenaTy motives. Re-
storing the tax on liquor might re-
duce taxes on incomes, and a look
behind the scenes indicate this to
be one of the chief reasons why
millions are being spent to pro-
mote the wet cause"
Mr.. Taber's advice on this impor-
tant problem is: Education must be

brought to the public, along with

and tied the halter by two long cords
to the roots Of two separate trees and
left him to recover himself.
In the meantime the rest of the
family had collected to admire this
noble animal. whose graceful and ele-
CANT form. so superior to that of the
ass, raises it almost to the dignity of
a horse. After a while 1t rose, and
stamped furiously with its feet. trying
to release itself, but the pain in its
nose obliged 1t to lie down again.
Then my eldest son and I, approach
ing gently, took the two cords and led
or dragged it between two roots very
near to each other, to which we tied
the cords so short that 1t had little
power to move. and could not escape.
We took care our own donkey should
not stray again, by tying his feet loosely,
and putting on him a new halter, and
left him hear the other.

I could think of with our new guest,
and at the end of month he was so
far Subdued that I ventured to begin
his education. This was q long and
difficult task.
We placed some burdens on his back,
but the obedience necessary before we
could mount him 1t seemed impossible
to instil into him. At last I recol-
lected the method they use In America
to tame the wild horses and I resolved
to try 1t. In spite of the bounds and
kicks OF the furious animal I leaped
on his back and seizing one of his long
ears between my teeth bit till the
blood came. In moment he reared
himself almost erect on his hind feet,
remained for a while Stif and notion
less, then came down on his forefeet
slowly, still holding on his ear. At
last ventured to release him; he made
some leaps, but soon subdued into q
sort Of trot, I having previously placed
loose cords on his forelegS.
From that time we were his masters;
my sons mounted him one after an
other: they gave h1n tbs name Of
Lightfoot, and never an animal deserved
his name better. As precaution we
kept the cords on his legs for some
time, and as he never would submit
to the bit. we used q Snafle, by which
we obtained power over his head, guild
ing him by stick, with which we
struck the right or left ear, as we

E TThfTes swiss Family Robinson" which re- e.
lates the marvellous adventures of the Rob-
forced to shift for themselves in the wilder
nesS.)
One morning, as we were engaged in
giving the last finish to our homemade
staircase, we were alarmed at hearing
at a distance strange, sharp, prolonged
sounds, like the roars of a wild beast,
but mingled with an unaccountable
kissing. Our dogs erected their ears
and prepared for deadly combat. I as
sembled my family; we then assembled
our tree, closing the lower door. loaded
our guns and looked anxiously round,
but nothing appeared. armed my dogs
with their porcupine coats of mail and
collars and left them below to take
care of our animals.
Thehorrible howlings seemed to
approach nearer to us: at length Fritz,
attentively as he could, threw down his
gun. and. bursting into a loud laugh,
cried out:
''It is our fugitive, the ass, come
back to us and singing his song Of Joy
on his returnl"
Our ass had run away into the Wild
ness some time before.
We listened and were sure he was
right and could not but feel little
vexation at being put into such fright
by q donkey. Soon after We had the
pleasure Of seeing him appear among
the trees, and. what was still better, he
was accompanied by another animal
of his own species, but infinitely more
beautiful. ! knew 1t at once to be the
wild ass, a most important capture,
If we could make it, though all natural
lists have declared 1t impossible to tame
this elegant creature. yet determined
to make the attempt.
I went down with Fritz, exhorting
his brothers to remain quiet, and
consulted with my privy counselor on
the means of taking our prize. I also
prepared, as quickly as possible, a long
slight stick, which would fall out as
soon as the animals head entered, while
any attempt to escape would only draw
the moose closer. The end of this cord
was tied to the root of tree.
I took then a piece of bamboo, about
2 feet long, and, splitting it up, tied
it firmly at one end to form a pair of
pincerS for the nose of the animal. In
the meantime, the two animals had
approached nearer, our old Grizzle APP
parently doing the honors to his Wis
itor. and both grazing very comfortably.
BY degrees we advanced softly to
them, concealed by the trees, Fritz
carrying the lasso and I the pincers.
The animal, as soon as he got sight of
Fritz, who was before me, raised his
head, and started back, evidently only
in surprise, as 1t was probably the first
man the creature had seen. Fritz re-
manned still, and the animal resumed
his browsing.
Fritz went up to our old servant, and
offered him handful of oats mixed
with salt, the ass came directly to eat
its favorite treat: its companion fol-
lowed, raised its head, snuffed the air,
and came so near that Fritz adroitly
threw the moose over its head. The
terrified animal attempted to fly, but
that drew the cord so tight as almost
