EOR years there has been generally
l. striking avoidance of the word
'inhale" in cigarette advertising. Why?
Goodness only knows! For everybody
inhales--knowingly or unknowingly!
Every smoker breathes in some part of
the smoke he or she draws out of
cigarette.
That's why it's all-important to be
certain that your cigarette smoke is
pure and clean--to be sure that you
don't inhale certain impurities.

Water was plentiful everywhere, facilitating all kinds of placer mining operations. The Fairbanks Exploration Companys work at Fairbanks was launched earlier than usual and 1t is expected 1t will have one of its best years. Individual miners and smaller com panies are expected to do well, al- so. The Willow Creek mines, re- opened some two years ago by w. E. Dunkle, are making fine head way and operating successfully. A new mine at Ferry, on the Alaska Railroad, Tn the Bonnifield district, also shows much promise.
 Big Building Progresses
 Work on the new Federal build ing at Fairbanks, to be erected at an estimated cost of $400000, was launched several weeks ago and is moving ahead rapidly. Excavations fer the foundations and basement have been completed and the base ment was almost finished when the Governor left.
 This project, while reducing un- employment some. has also attract ed a large number of job seekers to Fairbanks. It was estimated that about 200 idle men were in the community. Other towns also reported unemployment lists, and at no place was there any indica- tion of new employment to ab- sorb the surplus of laborers. Some of the disappointed seekers of jobs are beginning to return to the States.
 Sees Much Game
 The Governor and Col. Olmstead made trip over Mckinley Park Highway to Toklet River. The road was in excellent shape throughout the entire route. Great quantities of game were seen. Herds of mountain sheep grazed along the roadside and were barely missed by the motor cars. Large num- bers of caribou were also observed.
 The number of dead sheep not ed in the park this Spring was unusually large, the Governor said. Supt. Harry Leak attributed this to the severe winter weather as all of the deaths were of old anil mals. Bear were also sighted
 The Governor and Col. Olm- stead went from the park to An chorage with Col O. F. Ohlson general manager of the Alaska Railroad. Enroute they almost ran down a large brown bear which ambled off the track. down an embankment, and then sat down to watch the intruders.
 Anchorage Is Busy
 Anchorage, Gov. Parks said, was oae of the busiest places visited. Spring work was in full swing on the railroad. The Anchorage can- nery was putting up record pack of king salmon and generally conditions were better than might have been expected Both there and at Seward there were con- siderable number of unemployed.
