In Iditarod in the spring of 1912, A. B. erguson, now gone to rest, pre- dicted that the next7worthwhile camp struck in the Northland would be 20 years hence. In other words, in 1882. We'll, Jack Mutchelr has been read ing the stars of late and a short time ago waved "geod-by' from a steamer Alaska bound. He was on his way to airbanks, which is his old stamping grounds, and before leaving confded in the writer that he was going to be on the aground for this ne wstrike. There axe more prospectors 5in hhe hills this winter than for many years past, and We trust that Long Fergy's prediction may come true.
 Jack Mutchler has been on the Out side for the past four years. How ever, he pined for the call of the ptar- migan and for the healthy atmos- phere of the North. Known through out the Dawson and Fairbanks coun- try-sxhere he pioneered for over420 years-Jack will have quite joyous time renewing the friendships form ed in the Northland. His brother, Dave returned to .the North this summer, and George, another brother, makes his home within short jaunt of Fairbanks. In the early days of Dawson and Fairbanks the Mutchler boys were actively engaged in the freighting business. They had one of the finest outfits in the North.-Alas- ka Weekly.

UTOPIA LOOMS FOR DRIvERS;,
 INVENTOR RUNS CAR ION AIR.

LCS ANGELES.--Roy D. Meyers, inventor, predicts motorists may soos refii. their tanks with air instead of gasoline.
 Eteyers yesterday demonstrated an a. .omoble, with a six-cylinder radiai
 e Igne, minus the .usuak carhnr- ,,cr d ignition and cooling systems, j, Du. equipped with a compressed.9air tank flied to 800 pounds pressure. .s
 He pulled a lever and the car pick d up speed quickly and smoothlyy with slight hiss of air from .thetex- haust valves. The motor was ,geared so the maximum speed reached was s miles per hour, but Meyers said that, with a gear shift and a higher powered engine, speeds equal to spr higher than those of gasoline+driXen may be attained.
 As the air goes through the engine, forcing pistons up and down, much of it is reeaptnred and recompressed, Meyers said. The cooled air returns to the pressure tank, which is heated by electricity from batteries and a generator.
 This heating, he explained, sex pands the air in the tank, increasing the pressure.

John A. Fleming, acting director and member of the International Po- lar Year Commission, and who also is connected with the Carnegie Institu- tion of Washington, has sought the interest of the Delegate in the effort to get an appropriation from Con- gress for the competion. of the Zep- pelin airport at Eairbanks. A pro- gram is now being arranged for 1882 B, and Mir. Fleming states that in view of the participation already del- nitely arranged by many other gov ernments it is a matter of interna- tional concern that our government should take part as proposed in the occupation of the ststicn near Fair banks. A bill making provisiou for such participation was submitted too late at the last Congress to be 3avos- ably acted upon by hsth houses. How ever, it had the comsnaa,dation of President Hoover; and ~iiE be resub- 1 mitted for prompt andi favorable con- alteration at. the coming sess;on.

The Alaska Territorial Chamber or Commerce has taken referendum among it's chamber members on the
 lproposition of the Government sell ing the Signal Corps system, and the oinly chamber favoring sale was that of Seward The chambers were unan- i2nous on the desire to secure 50 per cent of the annual revenue derived by the Government from the operations of the seal fisheries of the Pribilof Ilslands. Another referendum on which the chambers were unanimous iS the desire for adequate legislation by Congress to authorize the U. g. Army and Navy to establish adequate aviation stations and landing fields in Alaska, and to maintain one or more sq.uadrons of airships at all times in the Territory so as to be ready to re- spond to call when needed. The re- suit of these referendums was sent to Dglegate Wickersham, which coincide with his views and desires on the re-
 spective subjects, on the latter two
 of which he will introduce bills in
 Congress.

STANDARD RULES
OF ETIQUETTE

Question: Is it correct to display
the wedding presents?
Answer: This is q matter of in
dividual taste. If they are display
ed the bride should strive TO see
that each is placed to best advan-
tage out Of courtesy to the senders.
Usually china is placed on one
table, silver on another, laces and
linens ON another, etc. Pieces that
jar should s'Iuld not be placed next
TO each other.
Question: When are the wedding
presents shown?
Answer: They may be shown
during the wedding reception with
perfect propriety if the house is
large enough to afford a special
room for this purpose. If the house
is small and there is no room avail
able for this purpose at the we'd
ding, the presents may be shown
the Aay before and intimate friends
asked to come to tea and see them.
The cards of the senders may or
may not displayed with the gifts
according to the personal taste of
the bride.

So remarkable have been the re-
suits accomplished by Sargon in
helping restore health to countless
thousands of people that during
the past thirty days alone thirty
two leading physicians have brok-
en- the rule of a lifetime and have
come out openly and publicly to
give it their unqualified endorse
ment.
So startling have been the re-
ports in many thousands of cases
that selected physicians in princi-
pal cities were expressly retained
to study the Sargon formula and
report their findings so that the
public might know the whole truth.
Outstanding among the number
are:
DR.. K. P. Drummond, plant ply
