OH! MY BACK!
The Expression of Many a Kidney
 Sufferer

A stubborn backaChe is cause to suspec: kidney trouble. When the Kidneys are inflamed and swollen, stooping brings a sharp twigne in t"e small of the back that almost takes the breath away. Doan's Kid Dey Pills revive sluggish kidneys - relieve aching backs. Here's con- vincIng proof of merit.
 Mrs. NJ. Holmes, 1916 Indian St., Bellingham, Wash, says: For quite awlilN had a dull, heavy ache across the small of my back. Often " en I strengthened after stooping, sharp pains seized me In my sides. I had terrible headaches and dizzy spells and my kidneys didn't act regularly. In the morning was always tired and worn out. After I had used one box of Doan's Kidney Pills I could see they were help ing me. My back got stronger and my kidneys acted regularly" (State- ment given October 6, 1913.)
 OA July 31, 1916, Mrs. Holmes said: My opinion of Doan's Kid ney Pills hasn't changed. I have always received splendid results from them"

Seattle Joins Campaign

The Seattle Chamber of Con- merce alone agreed to spend $56,- 900 in advertising the resources of that city and Washington state" seid Hoax.
 "The aim of the board," he continued, lis to enlarge into an organization that will include the entsreP acific Coast territory, and the Pacific Northwest readily as sented to this plan. During the present tourist season, however, the publicity, which supplants rail- road advertising, discontinued when the Government assumed control, will serve the individual sections"
 HGak is the associate of D. M, LInnard, manager of the Hotels Maryland, Huntington and Green in Pasadena and the Fairmont in San Francisco. They are expaining the details of the plan to the business men of San Francisco, and a meet ing will be held some time next week to determine what steps will be taken by San Francisco interests to forward the "come West" move ment.
 Speaking on the subject, Linnard said: of Californians respond to the appeal promptly We shall have the biggest tourist season in our history. Many thousands of East erners had planned to come here, hut cancelled their arrangements when they feared that Government operation of railroads would make travel between the East and the West uncertain. We have to reas- sure them on that point. The rail- roads will not do it, for under Fed "ral operation they have discontin- upd advertising of a publicity na- tue. Money which we spend in th's way will be the only adyertis- iny we can count on, and if we don't spend it we must prepare to suffer tremendous loss this win ter n California"

WE MUST GO AFTER TOURIST
 TRAVEL

Judging from California uewspa- per reports, one of which we print elsewhere in today's issue of the Alaskan, California has gone wild oyer the possibility of an unusually large tourist travel there this sum- mer. TranscOntiueutal trains will operate their regular quota of passenger coaches, according to an announcement of Secretary McAdoo wno is general manager of the gov erunent's railroads.
 Furthermore E. K. Hoax, organ izer Of a California tourist asS0cia- tion, says the Pacific Northwest was so enthusiastic over the publici- ty plan that the organizations in Seat.le, Portland and Spokane agreed to duplicate any sum the .petUIe Of California would spend in advertising the resources of those cities and the states of Oregon and Washington. The Seattle Chamber Of Commerce is to spend S56,OOO.
 Wa also learn that under federal operation the railroads have dis continued advertising of publicity nature. Clearly then if Alaska is to get a share Of this tourist travel which is coming to the Northwest and to California it is up to the indicidual cities and towns to do some advertising ef their own.
 Skagway always has been the big yest tourist town in Alaska, and we should not let this opportunity go by without making cur city known

Ire scare which Skagway had s few days ago over possibility or likelihood of German p>otters do- iug damage there should not be passed over too lightly. All may take warning.

 Had a German plot such as was rumored been carried into effect. and the railway terminals, bridges aLd storehouses destroyed, Yukon traffic might have suffered severe ly for many months, and industries in this realm blocked in conse- queuCe.
 Yukon will make no mistake in guarding cautiously against any such plots being undertaken iu this realm. Even though the en- euy might never authorize any such operations in this field, there re- mains the danger from fanatics. Eternal vigilance is required. - Dawson News

CalifOrnia's Doors Flung
 Wide to Tourist Travel

The San Francisco Chronicle Of January 26 says:
 California's doors have been flung wide to tourists. Fasteners who are shiyering under the blasts of winter, which finds them in the heart of a fuel famine, may now prepare to take that long-planned trip to the land of sunshine and summer on the Pacific Coast.
 This has been made possible through an order of the Secretary e the Treasury permitting all trans continental railroads now under Government control to operate the regular quota of passenger trains as an encouragement to tourist traf- tic to the Pacific Coast as a war necessity. L
 Thousands Expended
 "Thousands of dollars are being expended in this campaign" said F k. Hoax, organizer of the board after he had returned from the Pacific Northwest, where he was in strumental in the formation of sfn- ilsr publicity organizations tha' would serve tthe interest Of res .Dectiye communities in the same way. To date, the Southern Call- form Publicity Board has expenoed approximately s3O,OOO in full page advertisements in forty different newsuapers of the big Eastern cities ,dvestisinE California's resources and climatic conditions. Fully s1OO.OOO will be spent before the campaign is finished, and that Will not be until the present touFlS' season ends. =
 According to Hoax, the people Ol the Pacific Northwest were so e"- tbnsiastic over the publicity plan tb.t the organizations in seattIe' Portland and Spokane agreed 'o
 upIicate any sum the people o' California would spend in aaVer''S, f,g tba resources of those cities and tne states of Oregon and washing ton.

MILK AS A FABRIC.
Chemistry Can Convert It Into Many
 Useful Materials.

Chemistry Can Convert lt Into Many
 Useful Materials.
 Although any one will cuncede that man cannot live by bread alone, it has been thought possible to get along rather nicely If milk were added to the diet. But it remained for two French chemists, Francois Lebreil and Raoul DeSgeorge, to conceive an idea where by milk may also be made to yield fabric which may be converted into clothing and ornaments.
 The curds of the milk are subjected to a chemical treatment by means of which the mass Is converted into plastic substance which may be rolled into sheets resembling cellulo!d, from which buttons and other articles such as combs, umbrella handles, bric-a- brac and even imitation leather may be made, all of which are Uf attractive ap- pearance and of excellent wearing qualities.
 The milk is first robbed of its fat, after which 1t is warmed with rennet so as to form curds. It is then par boiled and exposed to the air and then Is treated with acetone to give 1t the required hardness, puSticity and trans parency. The product may be made 80 soft that it cun be used as substitute for silk in the manufacture of fine underwear, or it m;.!' Ee made solid enough to serve IS a good imitation of Science Monthly.

ENDORSED WILSON.
Asquith Says He Is Best Qualified to
Be Allies Spokesman.

London, Wednesday, Oct IS. Herbert
H. Asquith, former premier, speaking at
the National Liberal club here to-day
said there was no man in the allied
world better qualified to be spokesman
of the entente nations than President
Wilson Both OF Mr.. Wilson's recent
replies to Germany's peace proposals
were heartily endorsed by Mr.. Asquith
He spoke in part as follows:
"The German peace overtures are sin
cere in the sense that they evidently
have proceeded from the German people
who in their heart of hearts, have given
up the game. Ii, in addressing her over
lures, not to the European allies, but to
our American associates, Germany cal.
culated to sow the seeds of possible dis
sension and jealousy, it was another IL
lustration of the chronic cllmsiness OF
German diplomacy.
There is no one better qualified to be
the spokesman Of our common cause
than President Wilson. His two replies
to the German notes were both, in spirit
and substance, exactly what the coca.
sion required, They were terse, digni-
fed and outspoken and went to the heart
OF the matter, leaving no loopholes Tor
dialeetical or rhetorical escape.
1--WE must be sure that the government
has invited us to deal with, it is not
the old Prussian militarism dressed up
in a democratic disguise That is the
great question The reply to it can come
only from the German people them
selves"
