LOCAL RESTAURANT
 TO OBSERVE FIRST
 OF MEATLESS DAYS

The Seward Grill will tomorrow ob- today following a request serve "meatless day" George A. Mitchell, proprietor made this an- f om Glenn Bartlett, of the Gastineau hotel. of Juneau, who has been ap. pointed Chairman of the Food Con- servation Committee of Alaska. Othe' restaurants in Seward will probably fall in line acting along the national administration's request that one day ;. week be "meatless"
 Mir. Mitchell has prepared his menu for tomorrow and an advance copy plainly shows that none will go hun ury, even if deprived of meat for one day.
 The United States government is sending out circulars to all restau- ants, clubs, hotels, railroad and steamship lines announcing the short age of food in Europe and che desire of the United States to conserve food in the United States as much as pos sible. The government asks for a "meatless" and "wheatless" day eacn week. Regarding the "meatless day.
The Seward gateway and the Alaska evening post., 1917-11-22

the circular says:
 "Use more chickens, fish, hare, ra0. bit, duck, goose, oysters, clams, soa food and egg dishes of all kinds. T,c less beef, mutton and pork. If vol must include one of these three, Use more mutton"
 The "meatlcss" and "whcatIcss' days are bound to come, but so far the government has simply made Gee quests" instead of demands" The local eating places can only abide Ly the requests and thus prevent de- mands.
 Juneau, Kctchikan, Petersburg, Wrangeu, Fairbanks and Skagway are having their mcatless days and tomorrow the Seward Grill starts the movement in this city.

AN uNDIGESTED DINNER

Worse than badly cooked dinner is
a dinner that you CAM digest. Doyou
know what it is to turn away from the
best food, ill-humored and without ap-
petite, though you know that it is dinner
time and that you need food to sustain
you? This is natures way OF telling
you that your digestion is out of order.
Your stomach is not in fit state to
absorb food if you eat it, or your blood
able to carry the necessary nourishment
to your nerves, brain and muscles.
First of all, put off eating until you are
hungry. If you eat when you are not
hungry you can't digest the food.
To put your blood in the right state
to derive good from your food, take DR..
Williams Pink Pills. Without any
purgative or weakening effect they
purify your blood and enrich it, sothat
you not only have an excellent appetite
for food, but are able to digest it COM
fortably and get benefit from it.
So many dyspeptics have been helped
by this simple treatment that everysuf-
ferer from stomach trouble should try it.
A diet book, "What to Eat and How
to Fat" will be sent free on request by
the DR.. Williams Medicine Co., Schen-
ectady, n. Y. Your own druggist sells
DR.. Williams Pink Pills or box will
be sent by mail, postpaid, on receipt of
fifty cents.

LINCOLN COLCORD's SEA STORIES.

he Sold His First Story While at College.
Nearly every American reader of fic-
ton in magazine ard book form knows
the work of Lincoln Colcord, the brilliant
young Maine author whose stories of the
of the sea have brought him much praise
during the past decade, and whose poem,
Vision Of War, has been pronounced by
competent critics the most significant
piece of literature that has been inspired
by the upheava in Europe. Mr.. Colcord
is especially we'll known and admired in
this part of Maine, DO h because of the
fact that his home is in Searsport and
also on account of the years he spent at
The University at OrOno. 1t will, there
fore, be of interest to many to read some
thing about the sale of Mr.. Colcord 8
first story-truly momentous event in
The life of any young author.
COlcord, even in his college days, was
writing fiction of which seasoned author
might well be proud; and it could hardly
be said of him that he was a struggling
genius, because he seldom had to "strug-
gle" to turn out work that was worth
while. This IS not, however, an age of
miracles, so it is nothing to his discredit
to admit that young Colcord was having
the usual difficulty in getting hearing
(perh APPS ''reading" would be better
word) from the publishers. He had
among other manuscripts, story of the
sea called The Metamorphoss of the
Mate, and a convincing yarn 1t was.
Among his friends at college were two or
three who were privileged to read this
tale, and they were SO impressed with it
that they advised Cocord to submit it to
magazine, which he agreed to do. after
it had been printed in the University of
Maine Blue Book, an uncopyrighted
publication.
He chose the Red Book, published in
Chicago, whose editor promptly accepted
the story and printed it with several en-
bellishments by stiff artist. A short
time after it appeared sea captain met
Colcord's father, himself master marin
er, and, while congratulating him on his
sons success, said, ''No landlubber could
have written that story" Certainly a
writer of sea stories could have expected
no higher praise.
Colcord's stories have the effect of
making the reader who does not know
the sea wish he did. He depicts, it is
true. life lip the raw, but woven through
his tales is the thread of that romance
anu azure tndL nave always maue Ine sea
attractive to those who have sailed it--and
to those who haven't. His success in
literature is now assured, and he has
done many gripping, stories during the
past several years, but none of them will
ever be more interesting, to the writer
of this article. at least, than was The
Metamorphosis of the Mate. Other ad-
mirers of Mr.. Colcord's work would do
we'll to look it up.
Mr.. Colcord was recently commissioned
to go to Europe on special work for a
Philadelphia paper, but after the break
with Germany it was deemed wise to
postpone the trip, and he is now writing,
among other things, Washington articles
for big Newspaper.
