SEW AR1>» ALASKA. MONDAY, JANl ARY 3, 1916.
Seward is passing or has just passed through one of those “epidemics
that so often revive the juvenile ambition to run a drugstore, independent of
the desire to be the proud possessor of colored waters and bottled snakes.
The number of diseases is vast and seems to be grow ing vaster, according to
science, which, by the way speaks badly for science, but the number of
diseases known to science is nothing compared to the number of cures for
each disease. 1 or every disease science can tab, christen, discover, analyze
and make respectable anyone so inclined can invent a thousand cures. Tell
a thousand people you have inertia load, or auy other old disease, and at
least one thousand cures will be at once suggested. All those suggestions
are given with the best intention ami most of them are good and ha\e prob
ably shown their efficacy under certain circumstances. There are times
when a medicine will cure an illness in one person anil will fail in the case
of another. This is, perhaps, because one person is treated with it at a differ
ent stage of the disease or something like that . Or the mental condition of
the patient may be at a different stage. There may be a thousand reasons
and there must be a thousand reasons why there are a thousand different
sorts of remedies for every disease. But whether there is one cure for any
ailment or no cure or a thousand cures can anyone tell why, when a person
is sick and sends to the drugstore for medicine, his mind seems to be haunt
ed by the thought of those bottled leeches?
For a few days now many of us will forget to write “1916” instead of
»1*>: V The mw year h;u» not yet fastened itself on our instincts, so to
.-q < in. He is a new acquaintance and his name is easily forgotten unless
he proves the possession of such striking characteristics as to bring him home
to us at once. The most interesting bump Seward wants 1916 to develope at
once is that which has to do with emergency appropriations.
We’re glad to meet you. Mr. Nineteen-Sixteen, hyphenate and all as you
are.

Kill Immortals
in Great Conflict
Six Members of French Academy
Have Died For La 1‘atrie.
PARIS, Dec. 30.—Since war and
other causes have threatened to ex
teminate the French Academy’s Hall
of Forty Immortals by cutting its
membership so low it hasn’t enough
legal votes to perpetuate itself, ur
gent pleas have been made to Anatole
France, himself an Immortal, to for
get the misunderstanding he had with
his fellow Immortals a few years ago
and come on back with his much
needed vote. France has not indicat
ed whether ho will do so. Of the
forty Immortals who constitute this
illustrious body, death has claimed
these six: Jules Claretie, Henry
Roujon, Alfred Mezieres, Jules
Lemaitre, M. de Mun and Paul
Hervieu. Four new Immortals who
have been elected: General Lyautey,
Pierre dc la Gorce, Alfred Capus and
Henri Bergson, have not been invest
ed with the rights of Academicians
entitling them to vote on new mem
bers. Valid election as an Immortal
requires a number of votes not now
to be had. It is being urged mat me
four new members be invested with
the right to vote although they are
not yet full fledged Academicians.
Memberships of other institutes con
nected with the French Academy also
are depleted of members on account
of the war. The Institute of Belles
Lettres has three vacancies; that of
Sciences six; that of Fine Arts three
and that of Moral and Folitical
Sciences six. Not a few of these
vacancies were caused by the fact
that the respective Institutes, struck
from their roll of membership all Ger
mans who had previously been honor
ed by election. Delay in filling theie
vacancies is due partly to the desire
to have seats vacant when peac%
comes so they may be conferred upon
the conquering heroes.
