A few days ago'this paper stat
ed that Dr. A. P. Hawes would be
a passenger south on the Princess
Sophia, but owing to the fact that
he was called upon to go to Cham
l-.Ugn landing to inspect some cat
tle lie did not get over in, time to
take the ship out of this port la^t
Thursday but came over on | Sat
urday night's train and sailed for
the south on the City of Seattle.
Or. Hawes has been stationed *t
Whitehorse for several years in
the Health of Animal branch of
the Department of Agriculture, and
recently he applied to the head of
the'department at Ottawa for
leave of absence for a time. He
received an answer a short time
ago granting his request, but in
timating that his services would be
acceptable at Regina if lie could
fiud it convenient to cut short the
time allotted for his leave. Dr.
Hawes immediately wired his will
ingness to jforego his leave alto
gether and report at Regina at

children are visiting, and take them
ta Regina with liim. He expects

"Mad Anthony" Wayne.
The nickname of Ma«l Anthony at
tached to the name of General Wayne
of Revolutionary fame was due to no
trace of insanity, but instead to the
man's wild, reckless courage in plung
ing into battle where the odds against
him seemed hopeless. IK- had other
nicknames too. Dandy Wayne was
one of them, because of Ids absurd love
for wearing line clothes in the wilder
ness and in battle. The Indians gave
him the nickname of Illack Snake from
the swiftness ami deadKness of his
attack. At the outbreak of the Revo
lutionary war Sir Henry Clinton said
of Wayne: "Wherever Mad Anthony
Wayne is there's always a li*;ht. That
is what he U there lor.''

GETTHROUGH WITH
BLISTERED FEET
MANY a miner who has
groaned and suffered
for years with boots that
made his feet feel like a spe
cial punishment, has sudden
ly found that he has pretty
good feet after all, when he
wears "HIPRESS" Boots.
Just the other day we got a let
ter from a mail "Inside"telling us
he hadn't had boot comfort for
years until he tried "HIPRESS."
There isn't another boot made
like "HIPRESS." It's welded
into one piece without a seam and t
it outwears any other boot on the
market.
