SKAGWAY MAN BOOSTS

Frank Suffecool. the transfer m&n
of Skagway, passed through Ju
neau oti one of the recent boats on
his w»y outside to arrange for
lhe purchase of i large a,uto truck
<for his business. "We have plen
ty of business in Skagway and as
the auto 'ruck has proven; Its su
periority over horee-drawm vehicles,
I think I will get one and be up*
to-date. Skagwiy is looking) far
a iafge tourist trade during the
coming summer and I think there
will be a large increase in busi
ness and prosperity in the town,"

proprietor, already ha® one large

Sheep Has Wooden Leg.
Charles Krauter, living near Bucyrus,
O., had a lamb get tangled up in a
fence and injure its leg. The veterin
ary told him the leg had to come off.
Krauter did not want to lose the lamb,
so minus the leg he nursed it back
to health and then fixed up a peg leg
for It.
Now the lamb has grown to be a
sheep and still stumps around on the
wooden leg. Occasionally the wooden
member becomes loose and falls oft,
and the sheep then hobbles over to a
soft spot and waits until some one
comes along to fasten the leg on
again.
The wooden leg doesn't interfere
with the sheep growing wool, Mr.
Krauter eays, and wool ia wool now
adays.

WHERE TO LOOK FOR WIFE
Seek Her In Butcher's Sliop, S»y« This
Writer, and Mark Just How
She Buys.
A good housewife will look at least
two square meals ahead of her nose.
The modern system of marketing dur
!ug the high cost regime Is such a fine
art that a jouth contemplating matri
mony should hie to the market place
for selecting a bride. My boy, Zlm
advises In Cartoons Magazine, when
you see a maiden pinching, smelling
and pricing a soup bone, you may rely
on her sense of economy, for she la
lookiug forward not less than two
meals. The soup bone, when cooked,
is merely food in the rough or primi
tive state. Its choicest by-products
are realized after bouillon stage.
Thereafter comes goulash, the cro
quettes and the luscious hash. By all
means avoid the girl who orders cholco
cuts of porterhouse or English mutton
chops. She will not make a good help
mate. But the girl who selects th«
chuck or npek pieces or the tall end of
a ham bone, and renders them Into
dainty, palatable dishes is the one yon
want. So take my advice and seek ths
market place when you feel that you
have had your fill of bachelor loneli
ness and wish a taste of wedlock. Fol
low such a girl around until you arc
perfectly satisfied, then nail her.
Way to Success.
Power Is the goal of every worthy
ambition and only weakness cornea
from Imitation or dependence on oth
ers, says a writer in Success. Power
Is self-developed, self-generated. We
cannot increase the strength «f our
muscles by sitting in a gymnasium and
letting another exercise for us.
Nothing else so destroys the power
to stand alone as the habit of leaning
upon others. If you lean you never
will be strong or original. Stand alone
or bury your ambition to be somebody
in the world.
The man who tries to give his chil
dren a start In the world so that they
will not have so hurd a time as he had
is unknowingly bringing disaster upon
them. What he calls giving them a
start probably will give them a set
back in the world. Young people need
all the motive power they can get
They are naturally leaners, imitators,
copiers, and It id easy for them to de
velop Into echoes or Imitations. They
will not walk alone while you furnish
crutches; they will lean upon you Just
as long as you will let them.
One of the greatest delusions that a
human being could ever have ts that
he Is permanently benefited by contin
ued assistance from others.
