INTERESTED IN
PUBLIC SERVICE
"The cancellation of lhq majl con
tract* of the Juneau Steamship
Company which went out of busi
ness yesterday was not due to com
plaints on account of service," said
Willis E. Nowell, president of the
company, "but was admittedly in
tin interest of tconomy. It was
staled in so many words !>y As
sistant Postnu-ster General Prager,
who l<as charge of the mall carry
ing contracts that tha depairtm«nt
is not interested at all in, the pas
s^user and freight servica .required
bv tuo people, and that tt is con
tent when it can reduce th<i ex
pense of delivering the mail and g«-t
a tend to the government that
will assure tub delivery."
"The Juneau Steamship Co.,"
continued Mr. Nowell, "had con
tracted to expend $13000 to $14,000
o:i improvements to the Georgia,
which would have made that ves
sel as good as new, and, in spite
o' tn-e fact that it had never de
clared a dividend, fc offered volun
tarily to reduce thq charge for
ctrrying the mail between Juneau
aud Si'ka from $IS,000, th«t figure
at which the coutrac; v«i3 awarded
<t under a competitive bkl. to $16,
C-Ol).
'The juneau Steamship Company
uever has made money, and it has
beeu c'it-rai»ed by the Alaska Staaan
shiu Co., and tha Pacific Coast
bteamshi'» Co., solely because it
constituted a link n, tjiuir chain of
m>ernti'jns in Alaafca. This, and
*ne fact t*:a». both companies are
interested 'naterlally and) otherwise
in the development of Ala&Ju. kept
tne Georgia going, whether at a
profit or a loss. Carrying out
this pilicy, the Georgia never re
fused to make extra calls at places
no' covered vby tha contract w^th
mail at request of the government
without making additional chaiges,
aud it always accommodated min
ing people, lishermcn and settte.s
aud pleasure seekers and hunting
or ttbesr parties, whether there
was ijrafit In it or aot.
"The Sitka and Skagway rou^e
requaes the services of a boat of
dt least 150 «cua burden, No small
y. nout is a.ble to combat the
storms of wlntar and frequently all
oi its capaci'y ia required to accom
modate the public. Several years
ago, Jotfpeotor Whitney, of the
Post 01 floe Department, made an
i.ivett lgatiou into the man condi
tions of tbe .North, and it was re
oinmecdod that no boat of less
tiiau 150 tons burden should be
g vea either the Sitka or theSkag
way contract.
"The Juneau twumahipf Company
had planned, in case it received a
four years' contract at the expira
*iou of the present contract, to
tuild a larger and bettor boat than
tha Georgia for the run. The plans
o» the vessel had already been
drawn, and it would cost $140,000.
'During all of the 14 yeairs it
hag been in business the Junaeu
Steamship Co. novea- lost a life, nor
even injured a passengerr. It never
i Jst a piece ot mall matter or
any freight for its customers. Its
earnest concern has always been to
give the best anil most reliable aor
v:ce possible. It has been a devel
oping company.
"The Juneau Steamship Comj>any
has distributed mare than $50,000
a year in Juneau. It has brought
hundreds of people to this city an
nually, and aided greatly la center
ing trade here.
"Yet, because the government
could get a little boat to agree to
c.irrv the mail between Juneau nd
Sitka $7,100 a year cheaper than
the Juneau Steamship Company
could possibly operate the Georgia
on Jho Sitlca run, the contract, was
cancelled and the service to Skag
way discontinued, leaving Berner's
Bay country and the Sentinel Io
innd without a snail service at &1L"

A NEAT ENSEMBLE.
The Small Thing* That Score
For the Well Dreaaed Wom.in.
O a
There was a time when It was far
more difficult to look smartly d.-essed
than It la today. That was tht tluio
when we wore separate belts, when
there was dress braid on our iiklrts,
when we wore separate neckwear. We
had to be careful that the braid on our
Bklrts didn't become ripped, to hang in
loops of untidiness. We had to see to
It that the belt of our sktrt didn't sag.
We had to see to It that the leather
belt we wore exactly coincided with
the skirt belt We had to see to it that
the ribbon or muslin collar we wore
exactly made connections with the
blouse beneath it Yes, those were In
deed difficult days.
Today neatness counts as much as
ever, but there are no't so many pit
falls for the woman who would be
neat.
Neatness of footgear counts more
than ever before. The shoes must be
spotless, well polished and In good re
pair. Heels that slant are an ontrage
on good dressing; moreover, they are
decidedly unbcalthful.
It goes without saying that the hair
must be neat A hnir net sometimes
produces a stiff effect, but that 13 bet
ter than a sloppy one. So choose the
hair net In windy weather, and learn
to adjust it becomingly. This year,
when our milliners tell us to wear our
hats straight on the head, neither tip
ped to left or right, neat bair is more
than ever essential.
Immaculate gloves count for much In
producing a smart appearance. Soiled
gloves, ripped gloves or worn gloves
are a disgrace. Nowadays, when wash
able gloves can be Iwught at almost
any price. It is possible for everybody
to have clean gloves. The cotton ones,
if clean, always look well—Infinitely
better than soiled kid ones. And a
stitch now and then will keep gloves
always well mended.
Then there is the handbag. In this
case the more you pay the better, for
an expensive handbag outwears two
cheaper ones and looks better the last
day It is carried than the cheap one
does after the first few weeks.
There are little details, like the hand
kerchief, which should always be sheer
and snow white, that count quite as
much as some of the bigger things in
giving the Impression of smartness,
which the modern woman aims to at
tain.
Holding by the Hoad.
A perilous feat Is climbing the "Gir
dle traverse" on Scafell in the lake
district of England. What such climb
ing means may be suggested by the
remark of one authority: "There Is an
extremely welcome back of the head
hold on a traverse on one of the lake
climbs. The chin has more than once
been useful on the Napes Needle."—

SALOONS IN

Does anyone imagine that the
millions of dollars spent annually
for drink would not bo spent for
something else if the sailoons were
put out of business?
Would tht; owners of all this mow
ey destroy it because they could no
longer >-r«n<I. it in saloons?
No. There would bq a stimula
tion of trade in other lines.
One hundred dollars spent f«r
drink gives far less employment to
labor than does an equal sium speat
for necessaries.
Of $100 spent for liard\vai.-e, §24.17
goes to Labor.
Of $100 .-pqnt for furniture, $23.77

WASHING WITHOUT WATER

Without Herplclde.
Did you ever see any one trying to
wash themselves without soap or

If you did what would you say of
him?
It is every bit as foolish to try to get
rid of Dandruff and to prevent Bald
ness by feeding the germs which cause
It. with Canthrarides, Vaseline. Glycer
