owners CT renters of retail stores should look out for the side of the street on which the property is located, Illustrative of this is the testimony of d real estate expert in case some time ago that ground floors on the west side of Broadway, New York, should lease for $1JO a front foot more than similar property across the street. The value of retail business depends on the number of passersby, and the difference in this respect may result in booming trade on one side of street and only moderate success On tue other. Some men are able to acquire such reputa- tiOn for their goods that the people go to them even when they are iDconven- iently located. but it is good deal cas- fer in building up trade to put your self on the route traversed by the crOwds.-LesIie's

Governor Strong Receives Instructions 1 Ey,ou, Secretary Inf yya,. Raker

Governor Strong Receives Instructions From Secretary of War Baker. JUNEAU: That the people of the Territory of Alaska are to be called upon to pear their part in the present
 war is indicated by a telegram receiv- ed by Gov. Strong from Secretary of War Baker. The telegrams informed the governor that blanks and instruc- tions are on the way and that upon their arrival census of all citizens of the United States in the Territory must be taken which will indicate the humber of men who come under the provisions of the selective draft sys- ] tenn which has been adopted by Act of Congress.
 Governor Strong stated this morn- : ing that he had no knowledge of the provisions of the bill other than what , had appeared in The Empire but that when the letter arrived from Wash ington it would undoubtedly give him full instructions as how to proceed. 1t is thought that persons drawn from
 Alaska, if any are, will be placed in training camps for several months,
 and then used in guard duty around the States. It is not considered prob able that with a large number of sin gle men Tn the States to draw from, that it will be found necessary to take men from Alaska east and send them to the battle fields in Europe at the present.

SLEEPINEss AFTER MEALS.
It Indicates senasthins Wrong With the Digestive Systsrn.

A condition of drowsincss, which may become an irresistible desire to take nap shortly after eating, is usually very accurate indication that something is wrong with the digestive apparatus. Usually this form of indi- gestion is chronic in character. and ap- parently there is no other evidence tbal it exists, or at least such evidence would not be detected by ordinary ob- servation.
 Ill such cases the desire to take nap comes on suddenly, but the nap is q very short one. ordinarily not more than fifteen minutes. Sometimes the desire for these indigestion nals' comes on at other periods than those immediately following meals. but in such cases this desire comes regularly at certain periods of tine day. The cause. however. is the same as in cases where drowsiness comes on immediate ly after the meal. the difference in time being simply tbe difference i'll the in- the portion of the intestinal tract that is not working properly.
 Occasional drowsiness following an unusually hearty meal should not be confused with the type of periodic de- sire for short nap referred to here. Such drOwsiness indicates simply that the digestive apparatus is temporarily overworked and may be in perfectly healthy condition. This sort of drowsi- ness. if indulged. usually persists for several hours, whereas the maps caused by indigestion are always of short du- ratiOn.-Exchange.

WANT TO DROP
 BARS TO ASIATIC l.ABORERS

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 12.-- Suspend the Asiatic exclusion laws for the period of the war in order to admit to the United States Asiatic az ricultural labor to increase food pro duction and to release American man. hood for military and other national needs. This is what should be done in the judgment of the responsible heads of the representative Pacific coast newspapers.
 Such a decision will astonish the lawmakers who have been avoiding any interference with the Asiatic ex- clusion laws for fear of arousing the resentment of the Pacific coast. Last night following the meeting of the Associated Press and other publishing bodies, a meeting was held in New York, at which the decision to favor the suspension of the exclusion laws was reached. No formal resolutions were adopted Among the newspapers represented in the meeting were the Seattle Post-lntelligencer. the Spo- kane Spokesman-Revie the Portland Oregonian, the San Francisco Chroni- cle and the Los Angeles Times. The proposal for such suspension has all ready been made and bill to that end ic tO he introduced in the senate by Senator Calder of New York.

One hundred women day come ca- reer seeking in New York city. This is the figure furnished by Director C. E. Barns of the state bureau of employ ment. He bases his estimate upon the humber of women handled daily by the Travellers Aid, the number regis tered at hotels and those registered by the state bureau and other employ ment agencies.
 One hundred women a day, 36.JOO a year. 4 fraction over four every hour; approximately one every time the min ute hand crosses the fifteen minute mark.
 Mir. Barns estimates that d large per centage of career seekers come from up state and towns about New York and New Jersey. Probably 50 per cent, he says, come from western states. The smallest portion of the number comes from the south. Some succeed; more fail Yet always others come. answer ing the call of the minute hand as it of Fate. hcckoning.
