MAKING FIRST
I TRIP TO NORTH!
The now wooden steamship Anyox

beam of thirty-nine feet and a depth J
of hold of twenty-three feet. The; b'
contract called for ten knots sprvd, I
but she made eleven knots on her
trial trip. She was built for the L

the shipbuilding company are owned
by James Griffiths & Sons of Seattle,:

pany. He formerly commanded on
the steamship Kingfisher, which the
company sold several months ago to .
East Coast interests.

My prices are uniform as near as pos

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 liar- i
gains. The size of the package or can will
speak for itself.
