Unmindful of the heavy waves that crash so dangerously near Its doors the city Is reaching out to the very water's edge to greet the In romlng ship. A bobbing launch comes out to meet the ship and bring In the" passengers to the shore. The gold seekers built Nome In tho rush of 1808, and the gold seekers still add their quota to Its population. They have made It a city of contrasts of ostentatious wealth and hopeless de sires. Whore they camped m the beach and built wooden huts and sa loons tho city : has grown up. When more space was needed. It spread its nooses along the bench in long un even rows. ' From November to Juno It Is frozen Into a dull apathy from which it rouses to attend theaters, dances, and other Boclnl frivolities which make the winter tolerable. Ice bound and dark tho winter mny be, with only three or four hours of pule sunlight a day, but tho popular Idea of the wilds of Nome Is an Interesting myth. Elec tric J lights, telephones, department stores, banks, hotels Nome has all of these perquisites of modern civiliza tion; , . " When the sun begins to shine stead ily and the fresh surf pounds on the bench, Nome awakes and the summer residents who hnve gone "outside" re turn. The population Is practically doubled. Nome ' spends Its summer months In wlldlv rushlne about to make up for the enforced dullness of the frozen winter. I 8aw In.tho Paper. "I have' Just learned of a new way to retire a scorch from linen," snld tho woman who studies the papers. "I'm always scorching mine; tell mo about It," requested the woman who dill not know. ; ' . : ' ...'.' "It is a little troublesome at first. You put 'two ounces of fuller's earth Inlo a pan, udd half an ounce of white isonp, the Juice of two large onions and half a pint of vinegar. You bull this together for a few minutes, then you put In n covered vessel for fit sure use. When you have u scorch, you spread this mixture on It with a knife. Let It dry on the cloth and the stain will disappear." ' That'j tho Question, Mr. fthlboy "Marry me and I could die happy." Miss. Briglit-VYes, you could but would you?" ,, -.fi,; .......

"" i Investigations made recently by a yell-known doctor lead him to con clude that musicians who piny wind Instruments are exceptionally long lived. ' Cornet players are credited by him With an average life of 69.1 years. Clarinet players are next with C4.4, while the iivernce oboe und bassoon player lives to be about sixty-three years old. The lowest duration of life by these players of wind instruments is Id men who handle the flute. Be cause of the formutlon of their instru ments, they do not have opportunity for full exercise of their lungs. There fore the flute plnyer, according to this authority, reoches an overage age of 61.2 years.
