 Unalakleet. April 12 , The flu is pretty well stamped , out and the few cases that are left will give way before the pro per treatment and nourishing food 1 There were few deaths record | ed. but not from the flu. old age and other organic troubles being the principal causes.
 In a previous letter l stated it seemed as if the whites were i'm . mune from the flu. but they get it just the same, as well as the nat ives.
 The Neely's went under and Rev. Larson took over the job of administering to the patients, he too. later taking the count and the mantle then fell to another. but there was always someone to look out for the comfort of the natives
 The writer is holding no brief for Charles Traecer, but am fore ed to give him the royal salute, as he, without fear or favor. at tended to the wants of the nat ives, giving them nourishing food and seeing that their wants. as far as it was humanlv possible, were supplied. he was not troubl- ed with the flu.
 The flu touched the Lapps but lightly and they too were generous in their efforts, and daily visited the houses of the sick supplying them with firewood and ice and doing all they could for the allev- iation of the sick.
 Unalakleet is strictly quarantin- ed. but we learn that the flu has moved on to Egavik and Shak- tolik, and is heading across Nor ton Bay. and whether it will head towards Koyuk, Haycock and Cand- le. or make for good old Nome, is d question.
 The old Northern Commercial Company store that has not been used for several years has re- gently changed hands and is now the property of Charles Traeger. After the place is renovated it will be used for moving pictures. It is MT Traegers intention to use them as an educa tional factor in the Eskimo's life.

Smart in White
The most popular use of pig
skin is in gloves, of course. and
If you will notice. you will see
them on q large proportion of

to the fact that so much white
is being worn in every part of

practical and so smart in white.
With these gloves you will see
handbags of white combined
with colored pigskin or cNn'-

all the smarter if you add a

says Mrs. Helen Blume, 612 Twenty

Nov it's different story as YOU
can see from his picture. He's strong
and full of life. l gave him California
Fig Syrup because mother used it.
1t increased his appetite, helped him
wonderfully. Since then l have used
California Fig Syrup for all Georges
upset spells"
To show how California Fig Syrup
acts to build-up and strengthen half
sick, headachy, constipated children
through giving tone and strength to
weak stomach and bowels, nothing
could be more convincing than
praise like this.
Your doctor will approve the use of
this pure vegetable product-as often
as an impure breath, coated tongue,
listlessness, feverishness or lack of
appetite warn of constipation-or to
keep bowels from clogging during
colds or children's diseases.
When buying, look for the word
California on carton and bottle. That
marks the genuine.

COOKS
USE SUGAR TO
SEASON FOOD
Improves the Taste-appeal
and Increases Nourishment
of the Dish

There is no need to deny yourself
flavor when you eat essential foods.
According to leading nutritional
authorities and dietitians, the use
of sugar to season vegetables, meat
dishes and fruits is entirely proper.
Sugar adds zest to essential foods
which carry vitamins, mineral salts
and roughage. 1t heightens the
taste" of peas, beans, spinach and
other vegetables. 1t improves the
flavor of meat stews and makes
them more palatable. In the case
of fresh fruits, sugar modifies
harsh acids.
In vegetable and meat cookery,
a dash of sugar to a pinch of salt
is a popular rule of clever cooks.
The great value of seasoning and
flavoring foods with sugar is that
it makes them more enjoyable. Too
often essential foods are rejected,
especially by children, because they
are not pleasing to the taste. Most
foods are more delicious with sugar.
