There should be pictures to adorn the walls, flowers to cultivate the finer sensibilities, entertaining books, In- structive newspapers and periodicals These things, no doubt, cost money, but not a tithe the amount that one of the lesser vices cost, vices which are pure to be acquired away from home, but seldom there. Then there should be social pleasure, a gather- ing of old and young around the hearthstone, a warm welcome to the neighbor who drops in to pass a pleas- | ant hour. There should be music and reading. In this way each member of the family looks forward the hour of reunion as the brightest of the twenty-four. * to one » .

On the Border Line. Of all times in t family history his | and | m rmines to | re | removing spots > } sympathy, discretion and tact are needed, the season that marks the leaving of childhood and the entrance of vouth are most trying. Yesterday the little «irl asked the mother which frock she would wear, what hat, what gloves: she did not so sauch as go down to the road to take a walk without express permission, Today she knows that she seeks more inde- pendence of action. She begins to chafe at too much restraint; she de- sires to decide her small affairs for herself. She ranges herself with the older girls and young ladles and no longer with the little ones. The boy is even more marked in his show of individuality, he vearns for a longer tether and is apt to be oftener away from home, and to resent the sur- veillance which some parents deem important or rebel against the rigid- ity of others. Every transition phase has it own awkardness. Yeast is bound to ferment If it is worth any- thin, Have a little patience and a great deal of loving kindness, dear father and mother, and expect that when the border line is passed, your peace and that of the young people will be greater Forestall opposition by judicious concessions, Give the youth a margin for independance Say that vou trust your daughter and show her that you do.

Of course, you have heard of Alas- ka, that cold territory of Unile Sam's way up in the northwestern corner of the continent, where gold has been found in great quantities, You have learned much about it in school, no doubt, and you have heard grown- ups talking about it, for it is a most interesting section of the globe. But here are a few facts concerning It that you may not know : To begin with, it is not all ice and blizzards and deep, deep snow. Es- pecially is this true of a certain ele- vated section of the country about as large as the state of Texas. Up In the Klondike, of course, it is very, very cold; also, there Is a strip of territory along the coast that is break and "damp all year round, with no vegetables whatever growing upon it But men who live in the elevated part of the interior go coatless In the summer and the women wear light, summer dresses. And--imagine how strange a wight this must be-—you can see men standing on a shore of solid ice spearing walrus—in their shirt sleeves! ‘The alr is so dry that they are not conscious of the cold Yes, Alaska has a summer--and a spring and a fall, too. During the months of sunshine many vegetables and flowers dre grown in the open alr, The ground in Alaska is really frozen from the bottom up; but there Is a stratum of soil on top about 2 feet deep that Is not frozen In the warm months and can be sown with vege- table and flower seeds, There are birds, too, In Alaska, Among them being northern robins, geese, swans, ducks, owls, grouse and swallows, Also you will find bees and yellow jackets flying around and st think of Iit—mosquitoes! Yes, ndeed, such swarms of them In the summer season that often the people have to bulld what are known as smudges for protection. A smudge Is a fire, coaxed to almost blazing point! and then covered with big pleces of moss that keep it down and cause a dense smoke that rises and drives the mosquitoes away Egger sell for an average of $5 per dozen, though they once went as low as a single dollar for that quantity It isn't that chickens are hard to raise in Alaska, but that it costs so much to raise them, since every sin- gle (hing they eat has to he import. ed. Also, during the six months of winter it is necessary to keep a stove buraing brightly in chicken houses all the while It Is only rarely that you see the midnight sun in Alaska, though the sun chines for twenty-four hours steadily on June 22. At Fairbanks on that date each year a baseball game between two picked teams starts promptly at midnight. The far-fam- ed midnight sun of Norway drops just below the horizon In Alaska and a half uncertain light Is visible, but not the rays, From June 22 on the days gradu- ally shorten, and then on September 22 there are twelve hours of light and twelve of darkness. Three months from then, and on the same day of the month, there are twenty-four hours of solid darkness, and the peo- ple have to use lights all the time. A strange and somewhat amusing fact on the day when the sun shines for twenty-four hours la that the chickens have to be literally put to bed. No normal, healthy chicken would go to bed In the daytime; so they walk around and finally fall down from exhaustion, since they won't retire for their usual night's rest, Therefore, the people who raise them have to drive them into thelr houses and shut out the light before the oShiiten will hop up on thelr roosts, the | te OVER THE COUNTY.

Clay, foreman of a lumber camp near Bald Eagle, was the vic- tim of an accident last week which nearly cost him his life. The com- pany with which Mr. Clay is employ - ed has a tram road running up Call- fornia hollow, about two miles east of Bald Bagle station, to where their tions are located in the moun- tains. At the time of the accident Mr. Clay was running the dinkey and had started with two trucks loaded with ties down the road. He had not gone very far when he discovered a bad rail, At the same time the brake refused to work and the dinkey after running a short distance jumped the track and turned over on Its wide, The foremost truck caught the un- fortunate man, holding him in a vise- like grip, while the escaping steam scalded his body. Fortunately some other men were nearby who released Mr. Clay and conveyed him back to camp, meanwhile telephoning to Ty- rone for a physician, who hastened to his relief. Mr. Clay Is expected to recover unless unexpected complica tions should arise, the | the | recast phenom- | net ivit i om«~ | Col | 8.

SHOT WHILE BERRY HUNTING, Renovo Man Meets With Serious Ac cident While on Mountain, Lawrence laughlin, of South novo while out on the huckleberries as seriously injured dental discharge of his and his eight-year-old daughter to the lumber camp about six miles up Boggs Run Tuesday evening and stayed all night, intending to gather huckleberries the next day. In the morning Mr. Laughlin arose and had gathered some brush to make a fire when his revolver slipped from the holster attached to his belt and fell to the ground, The jar exploded the weapon and the bullet entered the left side below the ribs and came out the right side near the back. The revolver was of the Smith & "Wesson make and a 38 special long. The daugh- ter, realizing the perilous condition of her father, started for home to notify her mother of the accident. She ar- rived o'clock very much fa- tigued her trip for ald. Wil- liam Jones, brother-in-law, at once started for the scent the accident taking a with him.

Get Fels- Naptha and the grease an dirt on floors and aint-work will disappear ike magic.” Fels-Naptha Soap 1s better than an extra pair of hands in house clean- Ing. It makes dirt fly from walls, floors, windows and anything elsethat’sclean- able. No scrub - brush or hot water 1s nec- essary. Just Fels- Naptha, cool or lukewarm water, and a soft cloth. Fels - Naptha Soap dissolves the dirt in a jiffy so it can be rinsed away; it doesn’t have to be scoured off.
