Ralph F. Fernandez, of Tampa, Fla., de

a result of liver trouble and heart dis
ease, which had robbed me of sleep and
of all interest in life. I had tried many dif

got no benefit, until I began to use Elec

Washington, Jan. 9. Here are some of
the recommendations that Governor John
G. Brady makes in his annual report on
the District of Alaska just submitted to
the Secretary of the Interior:
That wagon and railroad construction
in the great river valleys and the exten
sion of the systems of cable and tele
graphs, particulary to Ketchikau, be en
couraged. ,
-That representation in Congress be
given the District, if possible, through a
delegate elected by the people; if not,
through a cimmiss.on fr?
among bona fide residents.
That a careful Congressional Investi
gation be made into the number of resi
dents and there condition previous to the
authorization of a local legislature with
the power of taxation Territorial govern
ment is a sort of medicine to be avoided

it had a large Sunday School excursion on

(OST Of SOLOMON'S TEMPLE
Solomon's temple flourished before the
days of modern " Graft," but it may be
wondered wnat became of all the jewels
and precious stones, for the talents of
gold, silver and brass used in the con
struction of the temple were valued at
about thirty-five bili:ons of . dollars, and
the jewels about the same, according to
Viilapandus. The consecrated vessels of
gold amounted to two and three quarter
billions; of silver two and one-half bill
ions; the vestments and musical instru
ments to eleven and one-quarter millions.
There were ten thousand men employed
to hew timber, seven thousand as burden
carriers, twenty thousand as hewers of
stones, thirty-three hundred overseers,
all of whom were employed for seven
years and upon whom Solomon bestowed
as a gift thirty millions of dollars. Add
ing the food and wages the total would be
over four hundred and fifty millions of
dollars. The costly stone and timber
equalled twelve billion more and the
whole total has been carefully estimated
at $77,62 1.966,6 3 6. .

The case is still fresh in the memory of
the people, although a year and a half has
elapsed since the terrible disaster. In
thousands of homes the loss of dear rela
tives and friends, who lost their lives in
the Slocum disaster, is deeply mourned
and the strong feeling against Captain
Van Schaick. who is, to a great etftent.
held responsible for the terrible loss of
lives, has not decreased much since then.
Public opinion demands that severe pun
ishment be meted out to those who were
responsible for the disaster and up to th
present time comparatively little has been
done to satisfy this demand.

Milk Talk No. 1. :
: (HEAP MILK OR MILK
(HEAP, WHICH?
Are you buying your milk cheap or
are you getting cheap milk? That
is the question which every con
sumer snould consider before
buying. There are five properties
contained in milk, viz; ash, or bone
material, caseins or curd, butter
fat, sugar, and water, in oroportion
of .3 ot 1 ash, 3.3 caseine,
4)n buttenat, 6 sugar, 87
water. Now there are le solids
and 87 water in a 4 milk, that
is in milk containing 4 buttartat

wnat is, or what snouid be consid
ered in buying miik. as the water
can be had for thj pumping. Now
let us consider for a moment be
fore we buy wneather we are
paying a high or low price for these
solids. Ai milk contains 9.76
solids and 90.26 water, a 6 milk
'contains 16.26 solids and
BA.?6 water. Now if a 1
milk is worth $1.60 per quart per
month, what should a 6 sell for?
Let's se, if we pay $1.60 for milk
containing 9.76 solids, at the
same price milk containing 16.26
solids should sell for $2.0, or you
can to every three quirts of 6
milk add two ;-.'. of water,
