SAYS COILEC/ DEAN
Larry O’Sullivan and Jack McKay
are two typical Alaska prospectoxs.
Their home is a weather-beaten
shack perched above timber line on
a distant Alaskan mountain. The
"hack is of mongrel design for they
started to build it of lumber but
after carrying the first shipment up
on their backs, they compromised

If you forget to stoop low you get
a nasty bump on the head as you
enter the door Don’t expect too
much of the interior of the shack
for every «i tide there has been
oack-packed up a steep switch-back
trail that coils up the mountain
side.
Larrv as you probably suspect,
is a good natured Irishman, quick
of wit and of temper—a wiry little
fellow who would tackle his weight
m wildcats Jack McKay is a man
of powerful build; slow of speech—
he is the direct antithesis of Larry.
Despite their physical and tempera
mental differences they make an

otherwise they wouldn’t have spent j

You will be introduced to them on
a September evening, shortly after
they have finished a shift on their
nrospect. This prospect is down
the gulch from the cabin and as
they advance the tunnel from day
to day their hopes fluctuate from
rock bottom to the skies and then
down again. Jack deposited an
arm-load of wood behind the cook
stove and Larry, who was deftly
cutting up the bacon and distribut
ing it thru the bean pot spoke up:
“Jack I have been doing a little
figuring. We have been prospect
ing for the past 15 years but in that
Mme we have actually been pros
oecting only about five years. The
other 10 years we have been earn
ing grub-stakes, building trails, get

The electric plant
with the reach
Before you buy an electric plant
for your farm find out hotvfu. •
its current will cany.
This is a question of voltage.
With low-voltage current a few
hundred feet is the limit. But
with the Kohler Automatic’s
110-volt, long-distance current,
almost any distance you might
name, on the largest farm, is
within easy reach.
You ought to see this great little
power plant—the one without
storage batteries. Our Kohler
Automatic is ready for a demon
stration any time you say,either
here or on your own premises.

STOP BAD MONEY FLOW
WASHINGTON, Dec.., 28. (Ay)_In
creased use of American currency
‘’broad, resulting from the war and
army pay rolls in France, brought
a flood of counterfeits from that

co-operation of foreign police offi

Only “raised currency’ from Europe
now is troublesome, but “very ex

bad off as that old prospector I met
down in Arizona who said that he
had spent lo years hunting bur

the rest of the time lacing high-top
