and he sounds It at every possible OPP
portunity.
His colleagues hear him good natur-
edly. laugh q great deal about his con-
Germ over their physical condition,
crack Jokes when he gets serious about
the thing, and generally allay his fears
with grins. But the doctor plugs on,
nevertheless, firmly believing that one
must be as patient in such things with
Senators as with ordinary human be-
ings.
For a long time Copeland has rallied
and roared about atmospheric condi-
tions in the Senate chamber. The lack
of natural light there frightens him.
He is sure that Just as plant brought
up in the dark becomes a white, with
cred thing, so is the blood Of every
Senator being whitened and lowered in
It's vigor by his being compelled TO live
under conditions prevalent in the Sen
ate chamber.
He points to the fact that since he
has been in the Senate 36 or 81 mem
bers of that body have died.
"Of course" he hastens to add, "the
majority OF them, no doubt, would have
died anyway, but the life OF many
faithful Senator has been shortened
by living under these conditions"
What he points TO with something
akin to horror is that the light which
foods the Senate chamber from the
ceiling is artificial The only natural
light coming into the chamber is just
the little which filters through the
doorways at the east and west en-
frances.
More sky shine" he pleads--"more
sky shine"
A real difficulty confronts the doctor
in his crusade for the thing called sky
shine. To get 1t, it would be neces-
sary to tear up the whole Senate cham
ber. And that, his less health-con-
scious colleagues say, is something un-
speakable.
In order to make contact with the
sky, 1t would be necessary to construct

"The bread and butter plate with
butter knife placed squarely across it
is ut the tip of forks. We used goblet,
rather than a tumbler. The round
bowled soup spoon is at the outermost
right beyond the dessert knife (Which
is used for the main course) and the
tea knife, which is the size we were
told is proper for the salad.
''In setting up the dinner we used
damask cloth with napkins to match.
The napkin was folded into thirds one
way and then into fifths the other way.

Soaring Us to Death

Clever advertising of anti septies and other preparations reputed to save us from all the ills to which the flesh is heir has done a lot of harm, accord ing to Dr. Shaw, professor of philosophy at the New York University.
 While real science is reliev- ing the human mind of many former bugaboos, mod e r n "fear factories" are manufact- uring new horrors to alarm the gullible and shorten their lives through sheer fright.
 Just as we have been reas- sured by scientific control of yellow fever, smallpox, ma- laria and a host of old-time dangers, along comes the kill joy tribe, warning us of the menace of dandruff, pyorrhea and halitosis. Quoting the good doctor:
 Man is tormented with an array of drug-filled rememies which are supposed to act as antiseptics. The bathroom be- comes a clinic, and every man a doctor in spite of himself. Now, dread in the heart, and fear in the soul is more un- slightly than film on the teeth"
 To which we may only add, as the high school girl would say, "Aint it the truth"

TEN YEARS OR so AGO From the Hyder Alaska Miner
 of Jan. IS, 1920.

Three claims adjoining the Premier on the east side and called the Premier Extension group, have been sold to Prince Rupert men, the deal being made in Vancouver by Duke Harris. The ground was staked by Bill Irwin and the option was taken out by W. G. Harris.
 Announcement was made by Roy Clothier that Indian Mines, Ltd, was on a sound financial footing and would start work on their property as soon as supplies could be got in. Discussing the outlook for the property, the Miner said: "The Indian is one of the first locations on Salmon River and has been developed to a point where it may be truthfully called a mine. With the re- sumption of work, shipping ore can be extracted from the start, and before fall this prop erty should be one of the big factors in ore tonnage of the camp"
 That the trouble at Premier has developed into strike is evidenced by the fact that the men affected have called for strike funds to enable them to carry on until other employ ment can be secured.

pound mark and he believes, in company with his many Waterbury supporters. that this extra weight will be the determining factor in bringing him back into a place of prominence. Always a terrific hitter, kelly's siege gun rights will be even more hefty and dangerous with this added weight and he is supremely confident that he will signalize his entry in heavyweight ranks with one of the seasons biggest fistic up- sets, a clean-cut kayo of the Jer- sey thumper who has knockout such well known heavyweights as Tuffy Griffiths and Jimmy Slattery.
 Tn New York
 So serious is Kelly over his forth coming bout that he has gone to New York to do all his training at the Pioneer gymnasium under the direction of Charlie Doesserich, one of New York's leading trainers. The Lith realizes just what Monday nights fight means to him and he is going to leave no stones unturned to be in the best shape of his entire career for the biggest test of that career.
 Braddock's punching power is well known to every fight fan in the world. The New Jersey thunderbolt packs sleeping potions in either hand and has compiled an impress sive string of kayo wins. Whether he will be able to tag Kelly in vital spot remains to be seen. Kelly thinks he won't.
