UNIFORM FLAVOR IN COFFEE DEPENDS UPON THE ROASTING
Hills Bros. Insure Uniformity by Their Patented, Con-
 tinuous Process

Coffee experts agree that blend alone, regardless of quality, will not produce a perfect cup of coffee. In the roasting of the blend lies the secret of perfect flavor.
 The common method of roasting coffee in bulk falls short in develop ing flavor, because it is not possible to roast every berry evenly. Real izing this, Hills Bros, after years of experimenting, discovered and patented continuous process of roasting coffee a little at time.
 Control is the watchword of this process. The quantity of coffee passing into the roaster does not vary. The speed of operation and temperature remain the same with the result that Hills Bros. Coffee is absolutely uniform. This process, fittingly called Controlled Roast ing" gives flavor in the cup that no other coffee has.
 Hills Bros. Coffee never "goes stale" because it is packed in vacuum cans. Ordinary cans, even if air-tight, do not keep coffee fresh because air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is inside. By the vacuum process, air is taken out of the can and kept out. Hills Bros. Coffee is sold everywhere by gro cers. Ask for it by name and look for the Arab-the trade-mark-on stlfe can.

 Call Emergency Meeting
 An emergency meeting of the Alaska Committee of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce has been called for today to protest to cur tailment of maintenance funds for the Alaska Railroad.
 E. H. Hatch, Chairman of the Committee, said: Tt is not neces- sary for the Government to feel it must obtain a profit on everything it operates. The Government cer- tainly does not operate the mails on that basis. This is vital ques- tion regarding the future of Alas ka and I believe the Government should encourage rather than re- tard development of the Territory"
 Protest From Green
 Joshua Green, also a member Of the Alaska Committee of the Se- attle Chamber of Commerce, said: "The Government has been none too kind to Alaska. At the best hI5 been practiced until the Government has chased a lot of people out of Alaska. I hope the Government will come to it's senses and cease throwing money away on Inland Waterways, which mean nothing, and recognize for it's true value a railroad that opens up the entire territory of Alaska to development and prog ress."

Beauty Hints
What About Your Eyebrows?

What About Your Eyebrows?
Perhaps you do not like the thin
line left by a severely plucked eye
brow given by many beauty ex-
perts; IL that be true a more con-
sentative effect can be attained.
Cold cream your eyebrows, then
lay hot damp towel on them a
few minutes and then pluck with
tweezers the few uneven hairs that
extend beyond the perfect line of
the eyebrow above and below.
Thus you will remove the shaggy
unkempt appearance and still pre-
serve the full eyebrow which will
be much enhanced by the small cor
rection.
( Mrs. G. B. c.: Even though you
have a permanent wave you should
brush the hair. At least you should
give the scalp a couple of minutes
massage with the finger tips every
night in order to have a sheen on
your hair.
Y. S. You may reduce the bust by
exercise, but you must do the exer-
eises faithfully and strenuously,
otherwise they are ineffective.
j. P: No, there is no other
means of correcting bowed legs
Than by submitting to an operation
Exercises are of no avail
MISS G. F.: Tweeze out the stray
gly hairs that grow above and out
side the. eyebrow proper and down
toward the eyelid. Shape the brow
to a nice arch by thinning out the
hairs toward the inner and outer
edges

Jane M. My dear girl, I'm so
sorry you are so unhappy. | know
your suffering is very real but l
also know that you can change it
all. You can't change other people
and the things outside of you but
you can change yourself and your
way of feeling and that will change
the whole world for you. In the
first place | want to say that the
boy who is trying to make you UNI
happy doesn't love you and never
did love you What he loves is his
own self and his own pleasure.
Love doesn't act that way. Love
thinks always of the happiness and
welfare of the loved one. True
love would give its own life for the
sake of the loved one-instead of
trying to- make that loved one un-
happy. SO don't waste your time
thinking about him He isn't worth
1t. | hope when you have finished
your present course that you will
get job and | hope you will get
a job in another town some time.
But ii seems to me that the thing
to do right now is to win out
where you are. You don't want to
run away from your problems. I'm
sorry that your parents take the
attitude they do, but stick to 1t and
show them the true stuff that Is
in youaqsIt's hard | know. but 1t
will be all the bigger victory for
youa The thing you have to do
first toflfall is to get busy doing
something for other people. | want
you to find some definite way in
which you ,can help others. | don't
know what 1t, will be because | don't
know what the activities in your
town are, although I've been there
several times. But | want you to
look around and see what organi-
cation. you can join that will give
you. some definite, helpful work to
do. for others, or what work you
can take up yourself that will bring
help and happiness to others In a
hard win ter like this when so many
are suffering you will be able to
find lot to do. Then | also want
you to- make Ii a rule to see how
much Happiness you can spread
around each day. Think up things
you can do for your family and
your aequaintances. Never mind
whether they seem to appreciate it
or not.i You aren't doing 1t to be
appreciated. You are doing it be-
cause you want your life to count
for happiness. Try this one month
and then write to me again.

YOU DON'T GET
 THIS STYLE OF
 FISH NEAR HERE
Explorers Described Those That Jump, Clim b Trees, Wink One Eye and Take Shower Bath

New York, Oct 30-UP)-Fish that bounce and others that climb trees and wink one eye as they give themselves a shower bath were de- scribed by members of the Ex- plorers club in a luncheon program here.
 Among the speakers were Sir Hubert Wilkins. Roy Chapman Andrews, Captain Bob Bartlett, Carveth Wells, Gordon MacGreagh and Anthony Fiala.
 Wells. introduced as fellow who can make the truth sound like a lie, told the fish stories.
 This Malay jungle fish," he said, twill climb 10 feet into tree af- ter walking over the ground from a nearby pool. He'll wink one eye at you and take a shower bath by fiipping water over its back with it's tail. It's the periopthalmus schloseri.
 Wells saw the bouncing fish in the rice fields, he said.
 "A Malay boy set up about 20 fish poles, and when he started home he had 50 fish. He took one out of his bag, and rubbed 1t on the ground.
 '.rhe fish was swallowing air. Then it got round and tight like a tennis ball. The boy bounced it in air and played with it as a ball until he got tired. then he threw 1t back into the water.
 "The fish squirted out all the air and swan away"
 Nobody disputed his story, which wsIs broadcast over the NEG net work from the luncheon given by the New York Exchange club.
