IMPORTANCE OF

Matter of Moment, as You

1.-The Importance Of being impor-

ingly impressive to the people who
would like to be, or, at any rate,
seem to be, important" said Mr..
Cato Ninetails. IF course, there
are people who are undoubtedly i'm
portant, but it is not so much the
result of their special efforts to be
important as of combination of
circumstances and their individual
talents. That is to say, they are not
important merely because they want
to be important, but because Of the
natural order of things. There are
other people who are not important,
but who seem to be important. l
don't know whether this Is merely
the result of chance or is brought
about by good management. Which
ever 1t is, it seems to require no
great effort by them. and they un-
doubtedly fool a great many people.
Sometimes I suspect that they even
fool themselves. There are still
others of high ,ambition-or perhaps
strong egotism-who notwithstand-
ing their vast expenditure of effort.

quaintances.

Of imitation importance-thati is, that

to the workaday pack of him who

 Through this treatment the stor- age is made both dust and vermin proof and will be used for the storage of flour, sugar, candy, to- baccos and other commodities, in- surfing their perfect keeping.
 According to MT. Paul it is the only storage place of it's kind in Alaska.
