AS A FAILURE
S\ mlicate articles are appearing in
numerous newspapers ot' the States
attacking the Jaekling properties,
particularly the Alaska Gold, the
property known us the Alaska-Gasti
neau, at Juneau. Under a Boston date
line the following was released by the
Boston News Bureau and printed in
Eastern papers:
“It is not surprising in view ot' the
disappointing exhibit made by Alas
k; Gold for the three months ended
September 30 that the stock should
d; op to new low levels, around $2.50.
“There are $3,000,000 bonds, which

Where You Can Find Useful Gifts For Men
One of the big leaks to be plugged
is Christmas-giving. You cherish its
spirit—and yet you do not care to in- j
dulge in useless gifts. Like necessi
ties, gifts should be chosen with an
eye to economy and solid worth.
Oftentimes they can be necessities
and still retain the Christmas spirit.
At this store you’ll find useful gifts
for men; the things they wear and
need. Our mark in any merchandise
is a credit to your judgment and a
gratification to any man.

overcoats, bats, neckwear, shirts,
handkerchiefs, gloves; other uti
lities by the score. We have the

help you make a selection.

investment made by the Alaska Gas
tineau people before control was sold1
to the new interests.
“That even the brightest minds in,
the mining industry and the best en
gineering talent can sometimes make,
mistakes is well exemplified in the1
failure of Alaska Gold.
“There is nothing the matter with
the milling process or with the gen
eral operating scheme. It is simply
a case of the ore running from 60 to
75 cents per ton less in gold than
had been figured on.

THE FAMILY STORE
My prices are uniform as near as pos
sible. I don’t advertise specials to sell at
no profit. If I did, I would have to add the
cost to other goods.
I do not ask 50 per cent profit to other
goods to sell some at cost in order to make
the public believe that I am giving them bar
gains. The size of the package or can will
speak for itself.
Conservation means “Quantity and
Quality.”
