Some of the boys about town and from the country have lately had a lesson that it might be well for them to heed. One of their number was caught pilfering from Nickelsen's store. He was arrested, and Justice Prather sentenced him to 80 days in jail, but afterwards the sentence was suspended durimr eood behavior. What the boys may consider sport has been carried too tar In some instances or late, and it is hoped, for their own good, they will behave better in future.

At this lime of the year a cold is very easily contracted, and if left to run its course without the aid of some reliable cough, medicine is liable to result in that dread disease, pneumonia.

Among the many thou sands who have used it foi colds and la grippe, we have never yet learned of a single case having resulied in pneu monia.

C , Dec. 5, 1897. Editor Glacier: Please spare me a small space in your valuable paper to answer the many questions asked me about this country. This country is comparatively new; the nearest rai road point is 37 miles. Everything is freighted in on wagons, with duty added, making rrroceries high, while woolen goods are cheaper than on the American side. Vegetables nre as cheap as in Hood River. Hay brines J18 to $25 per ton; grain $20 per ton as to climate, it can not be beaten in summer. August is the hottest month, with a few flies and mosquitoes added. The winters are dry nnd cold, with no wind. At present the ground is fro'zen. witli four inches of snow. The roads are like a plank floor. Sleighing and surprise parties are the order of theday. Miners are here in numbers too numer ous to count, and as soon as there is transportation to this country Klondike .will not he in it.- But the city of Grand Forks, handsomely situated in a valley lying in the forks of Kettle river, with te lovliest mountain scenery in the surroundings, will in the near future be'a paradise to behold. Still, I would not encourage any one to come who is hot used to frontier life. I am well satisfied with the country; am doing a livery business at the old stand. A. B. Jones and family and Thomas Lacy are doing well and are well satisfied with the country. Mr. Lacy has se cured a ranch, and as soon as arrange ments can be made will move his fami ly. I will close by saying there is no place like Hood River. M. F. Slopeb.
