BY JOHN sNURE JR..

Anyone wishing to know the
truth of the old saying about
IAN apple day keeps the doc
tor away" might ask Bill Klo-
man.
Bill, who heads a surgical in
strument company, left his
home in Warrenton when a boy
for New York and there shipped
as a sailor on a cattle boat.
He arrived in Liverpool, where
a friend offered to assist Bill
in exchanging dollars for
pounds, took the dollars, but
failed to return with the
pounds.
Penniless, he enlisted in the
Scottish Guards, but a year
and a half later was discharged
and found a new job on a
homeward bound ship in which
were 1000 tons Of coal which
Bill contends he is positive he
shovelled by himself.
Arriving in Baltimore he
found another job for a few
dollars week but later went
to New York in search of other
work. Here it was Bill says
he ate dried apples for break
fast, poured water on them for
lunch, and let them swell up
for dinner.

In her little hall bedroom on
West Forty-eighth Street, Nollie
lay in bed awake, her heart full
OF Tony O'Brien.
The best-looking young man
she'd seen in all her life!
And that voice Of his!
Beguiling!

Hungry and Thirsty

Seeking a job in a conserva-
tion camp, a member Of .
civilian contingent pleaded with
an Army officer to help him
get the job.
His wife was sick, his child
ren underfed, and few other
troubles were included in the
list.
The officer, sympathetic, gave
the man a IS bill, told him to
get shave, food, and clothes.
Some time later superior Of
the regular officer asked il
he would investigate the case
of a man who had been i'm
personating a member of Uncle
Sans officer personnel, while
on a drunk.
The offender was the suffer-
ing civilian. The regular Off
Ger refused. Said he:

diced"

On the day that We read Of

happened 10 be reading his
story. The HedDnlst, the scene Of
which IS laid in Charleston,

passage:
Everyone who goes to Char

self, | specialize in gardens, and
freely assert that none in the
world is 50 beautiful as this.

free, gracious, 50 lovely and
Wistful, nothing SO richly col
CURED, yet 80 ghostlike, exists,
planted by the sons Of men.
"It is kind Of Paradise
which has wandered down, a
miraculously enchanted wilder
ness. Brilliant with azaleas, or
magnolia pale, it centres around
a pool Of water, overhung by tall
trunks festooned with grey Flor
ida moss. Beyond anything |
have ever seen, it is other
worldly. And | went there day
after day, drawn as one is
drawn in youth by visions Of the

CORONER'S JURY
 INQUIRIES INTO EW0MAN'S DEATH
Alcohol Poisoning Said to Have Caused Death of
 Eva Lawrence

A coroner's jury today began an inquiry into the circumstances sur rounding the death of Eva Lawr- ence, aged about 54 years, in a room at the City Cafe early this morning. Dr. w. J. Pigg, who was summoned by Paul Johnson, in whose room death occurred, testi- fled that she probably had died as the result of heart trouble caused by alcoholic poisoning.
 Johnson, an employee of the Alaska Juneau, told the jury he had told the woman, who was ap- parently intoxicated, she could use his room, and he and Doc" Mat thews had accompanied her there from the City Cafe.
 Unable to Revive Her
 After she had been asleep about 20 or 30 minutes, he noticed her lips were turning blue. He tried to awaken her, but failed. He then sent Matthews out to summon a physician and continued efforts to revive her. He shook her viz orously several times, then used cold cloths on her face, both with out result.
 After waiting short time fol Matthews to return, which he fail ed to do, Johnson then summoned Dr. Pigg. When the latter arrived at 2:15 am, he found the woman was dead. Death, he said, prob- ably had occurred 30 to 45 minutes before he reached the room.
 Met Her in Cafe
 Johnson said he had first seen the woman in booth at the City Cafe where she was having coffee with man named Bob" Cook who said he had picked her up near the Alaska Juneau a short time before She was considerably under the influence of liquor. The

DEER REPORTED DYING RAPIDLY
 NEAR TENAKEE
Alaska Game Commission Investigating Reports
 of Wholesale Famine

Reported wholesale dying of deer on eastern Oh ic hag gof Island, threatening to decimate the herds in that area are now being inves- tieated by Warden Frank Dufresne, of the Alaska Game Commission, it was announced today by E. M. Goddard, Acting Secretary. The death rate is declared to be the heaviest in years and may equal that of 1909-l0, the heaviest on record.
 Warden Dufresne left Wrangell Narrows recently to visit Pybus Bay on the east cost of Admiralty Island and was directed to go from there around the southern end of the Island, cruise up Chath- am Straits and as far north as Tenakee.
 First news of the serious condi- ton alleged to exist on Chichagof Island were received yesterday by akee resident and big game guide. the Empire, from Herbert Lee, Ten Reports, he said, "are coming in from all directions that the deer continue to throng the beaches and are dying in increasing numbers. The death loss in the aggregate, judging by what it most certainly will be in Tenakee Inlet and ad- jacent territory, will be enormous. One of the old-timers with a long experience on Chichagof has pro- phesied that the death loss is like lly to approximate that of 1909-10
 "T N. Armstrong, who recently arrived from his home at Cedar Cove, Freshwater Bay, said there were about 100 animals on the beaches extending from Wochu- sets Bay to East Point, a distance of probably three miles
