Mr. Fehse of the mall service an
nounces that the postofflee department
has authorized the letting of a con
tract for four round trips between
Golovin and Haycock. Arthur Mc
CafTerty ha3 been awarded the con

EAT MORE APPLES!! ~1
ft HAT it means to eat an apple
“Do you know what you are
eating?" said the doctor to the
little girl.
I "An apple of course.”
‘You urc eating,” said the
doctor, "albumen sugar, gum,
malic acid, gallic acid, liber, wa
j ter and phosphorus."
"I hope those things are good,
they sound alarming?"
“Nothing could he better. You
ate, I observed, ruther too much
meat foi d.nner. The malic acid
oi apples neutralizes the excess
of chaky matter caused by eat
ing too much meat, and thereby
helps to keep you 3ound. Apples
are good for your complexion,
'their acids drive out the noxi
ous matters which cause skin
eruptions. They are good for
your brain, which those same
UvX.ous mutters. If retained,
render sluggish. Moreover, the
acids of the apple diminish the
acidity of the stomuch that
Cuines with some forms of In
digestion.
Then, too, the phosphorus, of
which the apple contains a larg
er percentage than any other
fruit or vegetabe, renews *he
essential nervous matter of the
Drain and the spinal column.
"Oh, the ancients were not
wrong when they e3teemed the
apple the food of the Gods—the
magic renewer of youth! - -to
which the Gods have resorted L
then they felt them»elves old |
and feehle. §
"I think I'll have an apple,” 1

titer In charge of Thomas Tuutuk ar
rived from Golovin bay for slaughter
hire. There were some eighty steers
I ur.d ten or twelve tumc sled deer
which were brought al-8-tg for the
iju'etlng influence they would have on
the rest of the deer. They were
rounded up on No. 11 Dry creek.
Things progressed well yesterday
until about 4:80 up to wblah Urns 87
dter hud boon Killed and dressed. The
boys were about to move the herd
back to pasturuge for the night when
suddenly some four to six dogs,
scenting the deer came rushing front
the Anvil trail and before they could
bo headed off the deer were stamoed
lng across the tundra with the dogs
In hot pursuit. The deer were located
today on Newton mountain and re
turned to Nome. Whether any are
missing is not yet known .
An interested party is quoted as
saying that care must be taken b..
both deer men and dog men to the
end that their Interests do not clash.
When deer are brought to market
notice should be given of such fact
and then in case dogs are not tied
up and later are injured or killed,
blame could not attack to the dee
m n. It should be remembered tha
dier do not injure dogs, but one dog
can do great injury to a thousand
dter. After the experience of las
night no chunces will be taken to per
mit its repetition. |
The accident to Harry Melvin, who
came in from Kougarok a few days
ugo with a broken leg due to an un
expected explosion of dynamite, took
place in a drift on property owned
by Ed Fox and calls attention to this
mcn3* almost unprecedented efforts
to And a lost vein. Fox has been
plugging away on this ground, which
is on the Kougarok, 5 miles east of
Dahl creek, for 15 years. Ar.d in all
that time he has found nothing to
•f courage him except at the very
start and recently. He says the rea
son he ever took up the ground an1
btgan work there was because in 1901
S3 he was passing along he suw
where some placer miners had sunk
a shaft He chanced to examine the
dirt thrown out and noticed some
blue-black rock which was very
htavy. He says it fascinated him an •
he took some of it to camp and in
a hot Are made of black birch in his
stove he roasted the ore until it
glowed. To his amazement bubbles,
or blisters, of gold showed on the ore
ar.d he was convinced it wus tellurlde
ore of very high grade. As the
ground was then staked by the placer
prospectors he waited until it was
abandoned, and then put up stakes
of hl3 own. Since then he has been
trying to find the ledge. His last
effort was a shaft 22 feet deep and a
drift o fl6 feet in the solid rock. Here
is where Melvin was hurt. They had
encountered talc and a genuine flssun |
vein into which the tunnel had beet
driven four feet Fox says that Mel
vin was so enthusiastic that he got
up at S o'clock in the morning to gt
to work for he was so sure, as was
Fox, that the long sought tellurlde
ore Is not many feet away. Fox 1*
cc-rAdent, as he always has been, that
ho is going to open up an cxceedingl.v
rich mine there and has wired ott
for money to enable him to go back
ar.d finish the job. He expects to re
turn to the Kougarok In about twe
weeks.
