SOFTNESS OF SEALSKIN.
b Rivaled by Hunan Ifnlr Where
Dandruff 1* Eradicated.
Sealskin la admired the world over for
Its softness and glossiness; and yet the
human hair Is equally as soft and glossy
when healthy; and the radical cause of all
hair trouble Is dandruff, which Is caused
by a pestiferous parasite that saps the
vitality of the hair at Its root. Newbro'a
Herplcide Is the only preparation that Is
fatal to the dandruff germ. Without dan
druff there Is no falling hair, but a lux
uriant growth of glossy, soft hair Is cer
tain. Scouring the scalp won't cure dan
druff. Kilt the dandruff germ. Thous

EARTHQUAKE CHANGES
SPRING'S FRESH FLOW
That one of the numerous earth
quakes which were felt in this vi
cinity during 1912 was responsible
for changing the course of a glacial
spriag at Olnes is the opinion of
many residents of that district, who
formerly obtained their water suppl.
from the waterspout. The spring
was located within a short distance
of the Olnes railroad station, and
without any apparent cause suddonl
discontinued throwing forth water.
Although I he railroad officials
tried to again find the water vein,
their efforts were in vaiu, and the
water supply from that source was
cut off entirely.
Shortly afterward a new flow of
water broke forth about 500 feat
from the station, and.it is thought
that it is the same stream that
shifted its course.
Manager ' Jcynt of tho Tanana
Valley railroad is now installing a
power pump that will bring the wa
ter to the station, and thereby save
the long haul that was occasioned
by the work of nature.—Fairbanks

Mingling With
The People
By REGINALD D. HAVEN
Billy Riggs and I, being in, Paris
when the warm season was coining
on, thought we would go to Switzer
land. We had both been In Europe
several years studying languages and
were well equipped with both French i
and Germa«. So we concluded to ■
tramp about, mingling with the people,
and not give away the fact that we
were Americans. We went to Inter-,
taken by train and from there laid oat
pedestrian toure.
One of the first we made was to
Grlndelwald and thence up the side of
the mountain to Scheidegg. There we
got a good dinner, after which we
walked tip a short distance to a point
where we could see the glacier. It
was very wild and magnificent and all
that but seeing Bucb sights Is not
what i am going to tell yon abont In
the afternoon we walked down the
mountain to Lauterbrunnen and short
ly before we reached that place came
up with a couple of Swiss girls dressed
In the costume of the country.
It occurred to both Billy and me that
If we could walk the rest of the way
with two pretty girls—no girl could be
homely in the Swiss costume—It would
be away ahead of trudging alone by
our own uninteresting selves. As we
passed them I bowed very politely,
took off my cap and, pointing to a
mountain whose name I knew as well
as my own, asked in Oerman—the laa
guage mostly spoken in this part of
Switzerland—what It was.
"That's the Elger." replied one of the
Ktrte. - '
I boldly expatiated on the beauty or
the scenery, envied those who lived
always In the Alps, and as soon as I
ran out of something to say Billy took
ap the dialogue. The girls did not
seem averse to forming our acquaint
ance. and It was not long before we
separated them. Billy walking beside
one, I beside the other. We both pre
tended to be Germans of the lower
class, though not Swiss. I got in A3
many nice things to my girl as I could
think of, und she being to the country
born and unsophisticated I didn't hesi
tate to lay It on thick. Every now and
again 1 could hear Billy, who was
walking with tbe other girl only a few
yards ahead of me. doing tbe same
thing.
When we reached Lauterbrunnen
the girls bid us goodby, saying that
they lived In a chalet beyond the town.
We were nenr a refreshment house
standing beside the road, and I invit
ed them to go up on to tbe porch for
a cheese sandwich and a glass of the
beer they drluk over there, which is so
dreadfully mild that It wouldn't intox
icate a mouse. After a consultation
apart from us they said they wouldn't
mind being refreshed after a long
walk, and wo all four went up on to
the porch, took a table and called for
the beer and sandwiches.
Billy was talking glibly about our
life on the farm at home when one of
the girls said:
"You are not a farmer; neither Is he.
You are both gentlemen."
1 looked at Billy, and Billy looked
at me.
"How did you find that out?" I
asked.
"We have so many tourists about us
all the time that we could tell their
nationality no matter what disguise
they might put on. You are not Ger
man either. Don't you suppose we
can tell a German from a Frenchman
or an Englishman?"
"What nationality are we?" Billy
asked.

Glen gulch has been heard from
but seldom this past summer. While
there has been a little work going
on, there has been practically no re
turns because of the dry season.
Stroup and Brunnel, who have been
working steady this past summer,
have not had enouugh water to do
any sluicing; 'the best they could
do being to "splash" occasionally, ac
cording to Geno Brunnel, who was
in town a few days. ago. Brunnel
received a telephone message from
Stroup, before leaving for his creek
home, to the effect that while shov
eling into'the boxes he (Stroup)
had picked up a nugget weighing
$98. thus bringing Glen gulch Into

"You wear French clothes, but you
are not French. Sou are either Eng

American."
"By Jove, Billy," I exclaimed to the
plain American language, "they're
smarter than I thought they were!"
The girls were very much tickled
that they had boen able to tell our na
tionality. They asked us to teach
them a little English. Bo I told the
one I bad walked with to pronounce
the words "I love you." 8be spoke
them, "I fdfe you," and asked me to
translate them Into German, but there
was a look In her eye that made me
suspect that she already bad an Idea
as to their meaning. I told ber they
meant "Thank you."
Meanwhile Billy was amusing him
self by telling the girl to say "Kiss
me," telllug ber the words meant
"Good morning." Billy and I kept
looking at each other, laughing over
the fun we were having, and by anil
by the glris said they must go on home
We asked permission to attend them,
bat they declined. At parting one o'
thpm said:
"We thank you for yoar kindness,
gentlemen Though we are only floor
8wlss fanners' daughters, we seem to
have amused you.''
"The thanks are due to you," I re
plied, "since you have given ua a very
pleasant hour."
"Don't you think," said Billy, "that
there was some shenanigan about
those girls?"
"What do you metm?"
"Seems to me ibey know more than
we think they do.'"
A week later we were In the casino
at Lucerne when I heard a woman's
voice behind me speaking with the
red America u accaut
"For heaven's sake, Jule, where
fcave yen been all this time? I've
been looking for you everywhere."
I turned, and there stood our Swiss
peasant girls.
"Stungl" cried Billy, and the girls
burst Into A laugh.
