| SUGGESTIONS OF
PEACE ARE EVIL
THE NATION FEARS NEITHER
HUNGER NOR DEVIL SAYS
THE CHANCELLOR.
BERLIN, June 12.—Chancellor von
Bethmann-Hollweg created a sensa
tion by his speech made before the
Reichstag a few days ago, that can
not. be drowned and every paper has
taken it up with favorable contents.
The chancellor appealed in his speech
for the unity of all parties declaring
that all political lines ought to be
obliterated during the prosecution of
the war. The conclusion of his speech
brought the entire assembly to their
feet in a wild outburst of enthusiasm.
He said in part:
"I see the entire nation,” he said,
”iri heroic stature fighting for its fu
ture, our sons and brothers fighting
and dying side by side. There we see
the equal love for home in all. The
sacred flame of love of home steels
every heart so that they defy death
and suffer death in thousands. Only
a heart completely dried up can es
cape the affecting impression of the
great primitive stren^tr of this peo
ple.
"Mv belief in my people and my
love for my people give me a con
viction firm as a rock that we shall
fight and conquer as we have fought
and conquered hitherto. Our enemies
wish to let it go on to the end. We
fear neither death nor devil, not even
the hunger devil which they wish to
send into our country.
"The men who fight out. there around
; Verdun, who fight under ltindenburg,
our proud bluejackets who showed Al
: bion that rats bite, are fashioned
from a breed that knows how to bear
privations also. These privations are
here. I admit it calmly and openly
even to foreign countries, but we will
bear them.
"In this fight against hunger we
will also make progress. Gracious
Heaven allowed a good harvest this
year. It will not be worse, but bet
ter than in the previous hard year.
This calculation of our enemies on
our economic difficulties will prove
deceptive.
"Another of their calculations was
sharply corrected by our young navy
last week. This victory will not make
us boastful. We know that it does
not mean that England is beaten. But
it is a token of our future wherein
Germany will win, for herself and
also for smaller peoples, full equality
of rights and lasting freedom of sea
routes, now closed by England's sole
domination.”
PLACER STRIKE NEAR NOME.
(Anchorage Times.)
Felix Brown, one of our prominent
merchants, received a letter Monday,
dated March 28th, from John Nestor,
of Nome, Alaska. As there are a
I great many Nome people around here
there are parts of the letter which
will no doubt interest them.
In speaking of the new strike on
Dime creek he says that Louis Stev
enson, of the Pioneer company, and
Dr. Kittilson have just returned from
that section and report that seven
claims are producing good pay. Stev
enson says that they have better pay
than any ground worked around
Nome in the winter time. Curley
Lovell has the best claim of any of
them and will make some good money
this winter. Nick Butler, from Dexter
creek, reports that all the boys on the
head of Dexter are making good mon
j ey and if Nick had water he would
; make a fortune out of that ground.
George Lomen has a store in Felix’s
old p.ace and doing well. Mr. Nestor
I seems to think that the old crowd
left the best diggings in Alaska.

SATURDAY NIGHT PARALYSIS.
“Saturday night paralysis" is the
very descriptive name hospital at
taches have given a curious malady
of the nerves that frequently afflicts
those who wind up the week with too
much festivity. This disease, which
only recently was brought to the at
tention of medical science, is now
commonly known among doctors as
“sleep palsy.”
A medical writer gives the follow
ing description of “Saturday night
paralysis.”
“It comes from pressure on hat
nerve (the musculospiral) which actu
ates the extensors of the elbow, wrist
and fingers. The hard drinker, for

whom, on Saturday night, money and !
leisure inopportunely meet, will often !
fall forward on the table with his
head resting on his arm, and so re
main until the effects of drink are
over, waking up to find his forearm
and hand inert and nerveless, a con
dition persisting for days or weeks,
even months, and similar to that seen
in lead palsy.
"Another disease is known as 'Mon
day morning paralysis.’ Fortunately,
it is. as yet, confined to horses and
does not come from over drinking but
from food too nutritious or too much
food while resting in the stable on
Sunday. As a matter of fact, our
'blue Mondays’ often may be traced
to over-eating and a lack of exercise
the day before.
“The technical name of 'Monday
morning paralysis’ is astasia. It is
regarded seriously by horse breeders
and ranchers, for recovery is rare. In
fact, the animal usually dies in two
or three weeks or even as many days.
"It seems to be a form of uremic
poisoning. The whole system is
clogged: the kidneys are inactive;
there is breaking down of the blood
vessels in the rump. The poor beast
presents a pitiful spectacle; he sweats
profusely and seems to have abso
lutely no control of his legs.
“A Texas rancher recently lost a
number of valuable draught horses
this way. He tried taking them out,
for half-mile walks, then resting,
then walking again, but they all grew
weaaer and weaker until they died."

TIBETANS SMOKED
2200 YEARS AGO
It is generally supposed that to
bacco was unknown in the Old World
until after the discovery in America.
But there is excellent evidence that
it was known and used in Tibet as
early as 377 B. C. In a note to an
article in the Geographical Review
Dr. Berthold Laurer of the Field
Museum of Natural History, Chicago,
| writes as follows:
"Among the many curiosities of the
Tibetan-English Dictionary, published
in 1902 by Sarat Chandra Das, the
well known Bengali student of Tib
etan and explorer of Tibet, we read
that the evil drug tobacco (in Tibetan
tha-ma-kha) appeared in ancient time
about 100 years after the death of
Buddha, which would yield the date
377 B. C., and that mention is made
of tobacco also in the writings of a
j lama who is dated in the twelfth
l century A. D. In 1908 I enjoyed the
| privilege of spending several months
| in ‘Lhasa Villa,’ the house of Das in
i Darjeeling, and when, one evening,
i in the course of a learned conversa
I tion with him, I ventured to draw his
| attention to this chronological anom
i uly and the post-Columbian intro
duction of tobacco into Europe and
Asia, he replied: ‘That is your tradi
tion and that (pointing to the passage
in his dictionary) is our tradition;
j and our traditions certainly are as
; good as~yours.”
