Tommy unbent and confided his new

Miss Todd, the boss stenographert
had been listening in. She entered the
debate.
Tommy, why don't you try this Ru-

was sallow faced and sardonic. A few
lean remaining hairs emphasized his
badness.
Miss Todd bridled. But I'm telling
you, Mr.. Liebermann, that my brother
in-law says this Rupert's is making his
hair grow, and I'm sure he wouldn't
lie about it. Besides, they give a writ

four bottles for six dollars, and If your

fourth bottle they'll give you your
money back.

Liebermann. you're bound t be bald
Tommy, SO you might as well say your

Tommy gulped guiltily.
The debate was ended in unparlia-
m~entary fashion by the abrupt en-.
trance of the boss.
Soon hair became an obsession with
Tommy. He was told that plentiful
massage was helpful. Thereafter, when

to wait-and dream. Tonight his dreams
had been rudely jolted. He had had
a date with Clara. Early in the eve

He was admitted to the Schultz home

She appeared after a nicely timed in

In short order she proposed the

Tommy inwardly sighed with relief

AS they left Clara called goodnight

Non-Blushing Potatoes
 Best for Chip-Making

WASHINGTON, D. O., Aug. a. Potatoes that blush" the least when subjected to chemical test make the best potato chips and French fries,' the department of agriculture has found.
 The relative redness of the blush" shows the amount of solu- ble sugars in the potato
 The blush" is produced when the potato is heated in solution of picric acid made alkaline with sodium carbonate. If the solution turns a deep red, it shows much sugar is present and the potatoes are unsuitable for chip-making.
 If the blush is only a light pink, however, good chips can be made from the potatoes under test.

NOTED ALASKAN
 CHU RCH M AN IS HERE ON TOUR
Bishop Rowe Deplores R R. Rate Increase-Pre-
 diets Traffic Diversion

Bishop P. T. Rowe, of the Epis- copal Church, arrived from Skag- way this morning on the steamer Dorothy Alexander, after a four months tour of the interior which took him as far west as Anvik, on the Lower Yukon, and as far north as the Koyukuk. returning to the coast by way of Dawson and White horse. He advocates a road from the Yukon to the Koyukuk to tap the mining country, and deplores the increased rates on the Alaska Railroad, saying that this will di- vert traffic to the old route via St. Michael and Yukon River.
 Visits Missions By Plane
 Leaving Seattle May 30 Bishop Rowe disembarked at Seward and travelled by rail to Nenana and Fairbanks, and then took a plane to Panama Crossing where a mis- sion of the Episcopal Church is situated. He reports the folk there enthusiastic and hopeful for an international highway.
 Returning to Nenana, Bishop Rowe embarked on a steamer for Ainvk. where he was met by the mission boat Pelican No. 4. which took him up the Koyukuk as far as the mission of St. John of the, Wilderness. Returning to the Yukon he ascended the river by steamer, stopping at Beaver, Rampant, and Ft. Yukon.
 Interested Tn Development
 T am much interested in the development of roads for the in- terior" Bishop Rowe said And I feel certain that a road from the Chandalar to Wiseman would mean an impetus to mining on the upper Koyukuk. The cost of transporting supplies by water is almost prohibitive. The river is very shallow and navigation. even for polling boats, is constantly ob- sructed by rifles"
 Regarding the increase in rates over the Alaska Railroad the Bishop was very emphatic.
 There's no sense in trying to make the Alaska Railroad pay dividends - because 1t can't be done. The railroad was built for the purpose of developing the and it will never be developed under the present state of affairs"
 Yukon Cannery Operations
 Another thing I wish to pro test against is the contemplated opening of the lower Yukon to commercial fisheries. We know what happened a few years ago, when the canneries were allowed to operate at the mouth of the river. There are hundreds of indians along the Yukon and it's tributaries who depend almost entirely on the salmon for food for themselves and their dogs. Their welfare should not be jeopardized. There are enough salmon in other parts of Alaska to supply the needs of commerce"
 Bishop Rowe will deliver a ser- mon at Holy Trinity Cathedral tomorrow morning at II o'clock, and in the evening he will preach in Douglas. He expects to leave for Seattle on the Yukon, accom- panied by Rev and Mrs. c. E. Rice, to attend the convention of the Episcopal Church at Denver, from which city he will journey east.
