In accordance with petitions re- ceived from Fortuna Ledge and the lower Yukon river district Delegate Wickersham has taken up with the Post Office Department the desir- ability of establishing an aeroplane mail service from Holy Cross to St.. Michael twice a month, instead of the present dog team service that is furnished from Nov. to April. What they really want is an extension of the air service which is now pro- vided for the Kuskokwim valley down the Bethel extended so as to take in the lower Yukon valley. It is only 45 minutes by plane from Bethel to Fortuna Ledge, while the entire distance from Holy Cross south and then north to St. Michael could be easily covered in one day.

WASHINGTON FASHIONS

Did you ever see anything
like the way the world is get
ting into stripes? And the
way We are all getting sports
minded too? It's a typically
American trend, yet it is seen
in Paris and at continental re-
sorts. We are playing more,
actually taking part in all the
more active sports, and of
course are dressing the part.
We need more sports clothes,
but they must be the right
clothes. And as the world is
going sports, it is now possible
to wear these clothes in town
too, and you'll see many of them
all summer on the streets, at
work in offices, or just doing
nothing in a pleasant way.
Small, Neat Stripes
One of the smartest develop.
ments is the striped silk shirt
ing dress. We've shown it be-
fore as woman's fashion but it
is so essentially youthful, and
looks so smart on young girls,
that we decided to sketch some
in junior sizes. They have a
trim, tailored look. are cut on
Shirtwaist lines, and. have many
features to recommend them
besides their chic. AS you
know, silk shirting is the easi-
est thing imaginable to launder,
and comes out looking as we'll
as when it went into the tub.
And the narrow-Striped patterns
come in marvellous color COM
binations, soft grays, yellow,
tan mixtures, blue, greens and
so on.
Correct for Golf
The two dresses Sketched are
in several color combinations.
One shows how smart a vestee
can be, and it wears its pockets
on the skirt. The other with
a button.up collar has a tab
front and a pocket on the
blouse. Both have pleats in
the back to make room for
a good golf swing and both
have good looking leather belts,
and colored buttons. They are
priced $6.95 each and come in
sizes II to II.
For the name of the store

dresses, or for help with your
fashion problems. write Miss

Your Health
And Diet
BY LOGAN CLENDENTNG, M D.

~ AONEAAN Nh1ANDDANAANNy N -
The flies and their cousins,
the gnats, are not only pests,
but dangerous enemies of man.
kind.
Entirely aside from their role
as carriers of disease, they can
do serious harm by their biting
habits. The mouth parts of the
flies differ somewhat in the diff
ferent families, but all consist
of a needle-like projection
which can pentrate any kind OF
skin to perfection.
After getting underneath the
skin and before sucking up the
blood, which is the object of the
maneuver, most of the flies, as
we'll as the mosquitoes, inject a
small drop from their Salivary
glands to dilute the blood or
juices of the host. This alivary
secretion is very irritating in
most species and in some, &C
lively poisonous.
Black flies, sometimes called
buffalo flies, or hump backed
flies, are the worst. They arc
fortunately not very much at
home in civilization, but in the
woods and fields they make
life miserable for the fisherman
and farmer.
The bites of black flies are ir-
ritating and painful when
made, but become even more 6.
in the course of three or four
days. The swelling, inflamma-
ton. general poisoning. and
loss of blood from the bites
breaking open have often
caused death in man, and
among domestic animals is so
common as to amount to a con-
siderable economic loss.
They breed in running
streams, which makes their an
Inhalation more difficult than
mosquito larvae which are born
in still ponds. Rivers hich
overflow their banks in the
black fly country, however, can
be banked so as to prevent over
flow.

to allow the weak hand to

Not knowing how the oppos-

would have been to lead his

An Unusual Result

of a slam seldom are justified.
In case the opening bid hap

the extreme hope. An opening
bid of Two-No TrumpS bars

favorable, and unless the part

CHAPTER XXXXVITI

I should have known better
than to bedevil myself with
such questions. I have been
with Thatcher Colt too many
years not to know better. The
man never does anything with
out some basis in sound reason.
Colt had seen something in
that photograph which had eS-
capped me-had escaped us all.
What could it be?
/ 1 confess 1 looked with new
interest at the framed portrait
which Captain Henry presently
brought into the room. There
was the same smiling, youthful
face. But what clue looked out
at us from within the borders
of the chased silver frame?
Still 1 could find nothing
whatever.
Thatcher Colt received the
photograph from Captain Henry
and with a smile sent the old
fellow back to Center Street. 1
am sure he wished to reman.
Without waiting for the door to
close, the Commissioner went
back to his argument.
The final proof, gentlemen,
Is just now in my hands. The
case has come to an end. The
facts are complete. 1t remains
only to place them before you,
and to arrest the guilty person"
The Revelation
We looked at him like fresh
men, absorbed in a lecture we
found glamorous. There was a
tensenesS, like electricity, tremb-
ling in the air. What revelation
would be uttered here in the
next five minutes?
Colt held up the photograph.
"As some of you know" he
went on quietly, Il was drawn
to this photograph from the mo-
ment I saw it. 1t seemed to be
the face of someone l had seen
before. The features evoked a
recollection in my mind. Yet
for a long time could not
identify them.
But logic settled that ques-
ton, within two hours, I made
a mental breakdown of that
photograph. Whose eyes did it
suggest? Whose mouth? Whose
short, peaked ears? I got a
little way with that-but I need
ed proof. Then l unframed this
portrait and got the name of the
French photographer. BY the
telephoto process I sent that pic
ture to Paris and asked the chief
of police to investigate.
Meanwhile I was making
other researches by cable. To
my infinite surprise 1 learned
that Lola Carewe had lived
alone in Paris and London.
Who, then, was the charming
old gentlewoman she had intro
duced to us here as her mother?
Was she stage mother, family
front for nobodies, as 1 have

Is She More Than a Friend?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
A young man who interests
me very much has lately intro
duced me to a girl, Miss -,
who think is a dear friend of
his. Not knowing definitely,
should l wait ahd see, then
try to forget him if she is
more? He is very handsome
anG fascinating. though of
nationality that I hate, but in
his case l don't care about the
nationality. A.
1t might not be we'll to delay
too long, my dear, in deciding
on the status of the young lady
to whom you we're introduced.
You may find it harder to for
get the interesting young man
than you suppose, for not al
ways are our feelings entirely
biddable. If you happen to be
thrown in with these two, it
shouldn't be very difficult to
size up their relationship. It's
pretty hard for an engaged COu-
pie, or a couple in love, not to
give away the happy fSSt.

Advice to the
LoveIorn

An Authority on Problems of
Love and Marriage.

In Love With Both
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am 10 years of age and in
love with two girls. One is 18
and one is 10. I can't make up
my mind which one 1 love
best. Miss Eighteen is very nice
to me when she sees me, but
that's not often, as her pa
rents are very much opposed to
her friendship with me. Miss
Nineteen's parents seem to like
me very much, so I go to their
house quite often. Still find
myself thinking of Miss Eight
cen. What would you suggest?
FARM BOY.
Don't worry, my dear Farm
Boy. You're not seriously in
love with either of these girls if
you can't decide which is the
right one. Just keep on being
happy. Nothing in the world
equals being 19 and in love.
Go to see the girl whose pa
rents approve of you. Prudence
suggests that you confine to
chance meetings your attentions
to the girl whose parents disap.
prove. It's a pretty courageous
young man who has the hardi-
hood to visit a home where the
parents frown him down.

Household Hints

In making a sauce that con-
tains egg yolks for thickening,
the sauce must not be boiled
after the eggs are added as it
will curdle.
To keep poached eggs from
breaking or sticking to the pan,
put a few drops of vinegar in
the water in which they are
poached.

Things too poor to prize;
Life has brought me riches,

Life has lent me power,
Strength to fill the day,
Life has shown me beauty
In each common way.

For the whole way long.
