The Tidewater Oil Company, Of
Bayonne, N. j., today was alb
solved of violation of the Oil
code by NRA officials, but the

1; Tom Skolsted, of Seminofsky Is-
 land, owner of one of the largest of fox ranches to the Westward, accompanied by Mrs. Skolsted and family, is accompanying Capt. Pete Wold on tn MS. United on a roundtrip to Seattle.
 Some idea of the size of MT. skolsteds fox ranch may be gain ed when it is learned that he has go head of cattle on his island in d d ii o n to the fur bearers he raises. About 80 head of these cat tie simply roam wild over the is- land while the other 10 are used to provde milk for household con- sumption and milk to be fed to the foxes.
 Exceptionally fine fox are raised on this milk diet, it is stated, as a recent pelting of 17O foxes gave MT. Skolsted a price of about $40 apiece when he sold them on an Outside fur exchange.

GOLD MINERS NOW

Raymond and Eddie Manthey arrived in Seward yesterday from Moose Pass where they spent sev- eral days. During the while they were out there the two brothers caught the gold fever and spent much time on Colorado Creek with a sluice box. They plan to take an ample grub supply along with them this time for longer stay and besides taking gold out the gravels on Colorado Creek they plan to try Alder Creek also. The boys expect to take out better than wages during the early stages of their mining career and as they &C., quire skill at the mining game it is expected they will do even bet ter. Raymond and Eddie both like the Moose Pass country very much and are anxious to get out there again. They plan to leave Satur- day for the Pass.

a nice length without breaking
off from brittleness.
Some persons are born with
enough calcium in their systems
to take care of their teeth and
their nails. Others, however,
lack this mineral in the blood.
Brittle Nails
SO if you have been wonder
ing why you brush your teeth
vigorously and never achieve
the snowy-white appearance you
desire, it is probably due to the
condition of your system.
And If your nails break off
continually it need not be the
fault Of your typewriter, or the
fact that you must wash the
dishes three times a day. 1t is
probably another story-no cal
cium.
There are various ways Of OBJ
tanning this very necessary
mineral.
Builds Bones
Even if you are not interested
in the condition of your teeth
or your fingernails, you must
rembember that calcium goes
even deeper than that. It
actually builds bones!
Milk. of all foods, perhaps
contains the most calcium.
Some fruits and vegetables also
contains it. But milk should be
easy to take, and practice Of in
Guiding it in your daily menu
would be advisable. Try and
drink a glass at each meal II
you can.
If the thought of a glass of
milk is so revolving to you that
it would be impossible for you
to drink it. then you may pur.
chase calcium at the drug store
in the form of small waters to
be taken at various intervals
during the day. They come in
a pale chocolate color and are
supposed to be chewed to small
bits and not swallowed whole.
Daily Habits
If you do this for several
months. we feel sure that your
teeth and your fingernails will
improve.
You can help to achieve the
desired results too if you brush
your teeth with regularity, use
dental floss, and seek the advice
of a dentist at various inter
walls throughout the year.
And as for the fingerna1lS,
you can help them to thrive
by massaging oil or cream
around the base Of each nail
every night before you go to
bed.

are, perhaps, the prize of the

Southern wear.
Then there's a rather Stiffish-
looking sailor with braided
band of bright velvet ribbons
passed over the crown in front

of the South American gaucho

II you've waited this long,
why not get q colored coat? It's
true that there's nothing quite
as practical as a black, and
browns are not far behind, but
this time Of the year our ward
robes need cheering up, and
there's no better way of doing 1t
than by injecting q strong bit
Of color. Dresses in vivid tones
under dark coats are good, but
a bright coat Is even better.
Dark Furs Best
Colored coats should be tanned
and toned down by dark fur,
less you're very young, and per
haps rather pretty. You've
probably noticed at some Of the
football games that young girls
wear red coats with white fur,
or blue coats with gray fur.
They're pretty indeed, but only
for the young and smart.
Red coats often take black
fur, blue prefers either a dark
gray or black according to the
shade Of blue, and green takes
gray, black or brown. Access
sories usually match the color
of the fur, or are in a dark
tone, though your hat and bag
may match the color of the coat,
especially if they're Of the same
fabric.
Black Fox Collar
Although the camera can't do
justice to color, we've photo
graphed a vivid red coat to
illustrate the point. It has
black fox for the collar, which
is a wide-sweeping shawl effect,
that is extremely flattering, as
it stands well away from the
face, and may be worn up or
down, in several different ways.
There are similar blue coats
about town, and other colored
coats in other styles. This coat
is $55, which is little enough
for such fine fur, and good
fabric. It is a misses size.

der, concerning which you
should see a physician. Oiling
the cuticle, however, is helpful
in correcting the condition Of
the nails. Soak your finger tips
in warmed olive oil several times
q week. In addition, insert q
generous amount Of cold cream
or nourishing cream under each
nail nightly before you retire.
Also, If you apply two or three
coats of a good, heavy liquid
nail polish to your nails, it will
help to prevent the layers from
peeling.

Boiled Milk

Q.-I boil the milk for my
baby and my family tells me it
will make him cOnstipated. Shall
I continue boiling it?-Y. 8.
A.-Probably the one rule that
can be laid down for all arti-
ficially fed babies is-boil the
milk. The constipation that oc-
casionally accompanies the use
of boiled milk is unimportant in
comparison with the more SER
ious disturbance that may follow
the use Of raw milk.
Boiling milk kills all disease
producing germs. It also makes
the milk more digestible. The
curds that form in the baby's
stomach in the process of d.
gesting raw cows milk are large
tough and leathery. The curdS
formed by boiled milk are small,
soft and more like those of
breast milk. Because boiling
makes milk both safe and di-
gestible many of the digestive
disturbances and other Difficult
ties of artificial feeding disap-
pear when this procedure is
rigidly followed in preparing
baby's feeding.

Questions
On Solid Diet


Q.-My doctO. has put my
baby on solid food but he doesn't
seem to like it. I can't persuade
him to take it without the great
est trouble. N. B.
A.-Some babies learn to eat
new foods very slowly. Do not
be anxious or worried if yours
is one of this type. If you are
he will know it and it will pro-
long the day when he takes bis
food graciously. Be patient and
"siStent. Do not coax. If he
.efuses to take any food take it
away without showing any
anxiety but offer the same food
again the next day. Always
offer it before the nursing or
bottle the babies like. II a baby
eight or nine months old per-
sistently refuses a new food it
may be necessary to -leep him
off his milk or other food COR
several feelings. Give him to
understand that If he eats \ bit
Of the new food he will get his
mil Give plenty Of water
while you are holding out on
the milk. Do not make his meal
time unhappy by scolding and
forcing him 20 eat foods he has
not learned 20 like but let him
get hungry enough to take it.
Praise him and give him the
milk.
A baby can be taught to like
all foods that are good for him
He will not cry fol things he

He Is Cynical and DiStruSts
Everyone
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I know a young man who is
very cynical and distrusts every
one. He has no real interest
in anyone or anything. At
tracted by cheaper things, he
has some fine traits under his
cynical attitude, but seldom
shows them. I rather like this
person and have taken an in
terest in him. His only concern
is to enjoy himself at any ones
expense. I wish to try to make
him change his attitude and
see the worthwhile things in
life. What would you advise? I.
This young man sounds rather
spoiled to me and as if he
might be posing. It's all right
for you to try a little missionary
work with him and do as you
suggest: "Try to make him
change his attitude and see the
worthwhile things in life"
But isn't he likely to misjudge
your attitude and think your
interest is inspired by more than
"liking"? If he's interested in
any particular line, you might
encourage him to take it up seri-
ously. A genuine interest has
been known to work miracles in
a self-centered character.
wish you had told me more
about those fine traits. To me
he sounds rather unpromiSing.

Wrote Him Anonymous Notes
Dear Miss Fairfax:
At our summer place there
was a nice boy Of 81 who noticed
me, and I (aged IT'D likewise no
ticed him. We knew each other,
but on meeting never had much
to say. When I returned to
school I got the silly idea Of
sending anonymous notes.
We have written to each other
several times, but have not dis
closed my identity, which he is
anxious to discover. I am un-
certain whether or not I should
keep on corresponding and tell
who I am. Now I am afraid,
if 1 see him again next summer,
neither he nor the rest Of the
boys at that place will have
much respect for me. What
shall I do about this correspond
ence, and should I disclose my
identity? JACIE.
If the notes have been just
bright, chatty little scribbles,
you might admit you wrote
them. But if they've been Of

WORDS that fell from the lips

There are words as gay as q

And 1 love the lilt Of q word
that sings
Like a robin that seeks his

But I vainly search for the

When I glimpse in the sky at
night
A star that races with eerie
speed,
The lamp of a plane in flight!
Oh I grope in vain for a word
that gives
The power and faith of man,
The courage that deep in his
being lives,
Unquenched since the world
began.
And that plane which scars
through the velvet dark
On the wind-Swept seas Of space
Tells more than all words of

OF mans soul in the nights
