Prayed for Cure
Finds it After 10 Years
Food Would Sour and Boil
Teeth Like Chalk

MIR. Herbert NJ. Gessner writes from his
home in Berlin, N. H.:
l had stomach trouble over ten years;
kept getting worse. I tried everything for
relief but it came back worse than ever.
Last fall 1 got awfully bad; could only eat
light loaf bread and tea. In January got
so bad that what I would eat would sour
and boil; my teeth would be like chalk.
/ suffered terribly. / prayed every day for
something to cure me. One day I read
about EATONIC and told my wife to get
me box at the drug store as / was going
to work at p. m. I took me-third of it
and began to feel relief; when it was
three-fourths gone, | felt fine and when it
was used up had no pains. Wife got me
another box but | have felt the pain but
twice. / used FIVE tablets out of the new
box and / have no more stomach trouble.
Now / write to tell you how thankful l
am that l heard of EATONIC. / feel ike
new man; eat what / like, drink plenty
Of water, and it never hurts me at all.

Unstable Foundation.

The sad conviction is forced upon
the Nomad that Dickens and all Dick
ensian expressions are now obsolete,
as far as the popular knowledge OF
them is concerned, "The Nomad" OBJ
serves in the Boston Evening Tran
script. He writes the phrase "in a Pick
wickian sense" and 1t is rendered I'm
a picknickian sense" by the intelligent
linotyper. Showing that the word
"Pickwickian" Is unknown to a man
who has lately been educated in the
public schools. Since 1t Is OF no use
to writer to employ phrase which
is not understood. 1t will be necessary
henceforth to discard all those once
familiar expressions. So 1t is long
and a sad farewell not only to the be-
loved Pickwick, but to Mr.. Micawber,
and to Sllas Wegg and his wooden leg,
and to MIR. Weller and his vidders, and
to Sairey Camp and Mrs. Harris, and
TO Barkis and his willingness, to j. b.
and his "devilish slyness," and to MIR.
Bumble and Mr.. Chadband, all the
blessed rest of them! So passes away
the glory Of the world. 1t will be sorry
to see and know them no more. Not
only were they delightful in their per-
sonallties and their lives, but they
were most useful Gas long as they
lived) for purposes of illustration. No
one can quite take their place.

Lafe was the happiest man in the

EMPRESS WILL SHOW BZC GAME
 FILMS TONIGHT

We live in Alaska, many of uS have spent years in the country, and yet know little of the wild life with which it teens. Alaska, is pre- eminently, big game country, the hunters paradise; yet so inacces- sible is it, the dangers of a hunting trip so great, that comparatively few have penetrated to the Shadow of the North Pole"
 One of those few is Capt. r. E.. Kleinschmidt, who made the north ern expedition on the staunch little ship Polar Bear, and hunted, not alone with gun, but with camera as we'll And the story of that eypedi- tion is recorded in five reels of the most marvellous pictures ever filmed.
 There are no "faked" Alaskan scenes in Capt. Kleinschmidt's fea- ture. But there are the most fascin- atingly intimate views of wild an;- nal life conceivable. Reindeer by the thousand, the Stellers lion, larg- est of the seal specie. with harem and puppies on Bogoslof island; a lasooing match between the huge lion and the captain, which resolves itself into a sprinting match,-with the captain in the lead; wonderful views of ma moose hunt, in which the entire moose family participate, feeding within fifty feet of the camera; tnd most marvellous of all, serious of polar bear pictures, surpassing in novelty and interest, anything we have ever seen before.
 These Alaskan pictures will be shown tonight at the Empress theaters and offer an attraction that is new and different It is i'm possible to convey, by words, the in terest and fascination they inspire To be appreciated, they must be seen.

SOLDIERS WILL RECEIVE
 VOCATIONAL EDUCATION

Lieut.. Robert A. Lilly of the United States navy and at the pres ent time on the inactive duty list, arrived in Fairbanks from San Fran cisco last week, says the News Miner. He came in by way of Cor dova and Chitina reaching our town on Tom Gibson's stage
 He has been sent by the war de- partment to take up the vocational education of the men in garrison at the army post at Fort Gibson for which place he will leave by way of Dunbars and the Fairbanks-Tan- ana mail trail. E. P. A1lard the mail carrier, will take him on from Dunbars.
 Previous to coming to Alaska, Lieut.. Lilly was on active duty with the U. s. naval forces and during the war made nine trips across the Atlantic with the conveys. On two occasions they encountered enemy submarines which were engaged by the British escorting flotilla suc- cessfully.
 After the signing of the armistice Lieut.. Lilly was attached to the supply ships of the navy and served in Cuba, Panama, and in southern climes until August 1, on which date he was detailed for shore duty He last served on the naval fuel ship Cuyamas now a unit in what is known as the Pacifis fleet train
 Lieut. Lilly is very favorably i'm pressed with Alaska, such of it as he has seen and also with Alaskans He expressed decided preference for the interior. He was at Ktchi- kan. Juneau and Cordova on the way way. in.
 The recent voyage of a small squadron of destroyers in Alaskan water has made quite some differ ence in the navy plans he said, and added that a scheme is now on foot to station one or two destroyer flo- tillas in Alaskan waters perma- nently

1.-THE WAY BACK" TO BE SCREENED AT EMPRESS
 UNDER AUPICES OF ELKS

One of the most thrilling pie lures ever shown on the screen is "The Way Back" which will be eX- hibited under the joint auspices of the federal board for vocational edu cation and the Benevolent and Pro tective Order of Elks. It is a 5-reel feature picture replete with sensa- tional situations and a climax that impreSses the story on the minds of those who see it, for all time.
 The Way Back" is the story of two baseball players whose narrow view of the. world was greatly en- larged when they returned from the war disabled and unable to fol low their previous profession, but who found the way back through the help of the girls they loved and the new government policy of redeeming it's disabled heroes.
 The picture contains a baseball scene that has all the thrills of a ninth inning rally that wins the game tnd sends the hero off the field on the shoulders of the rooters for his team, and amidst the applause of the audience. Later in the pic ture he is again the hero in great play that is being staged today for millions of people; the story is told so entertainingly that those who see it will never forget the wonderful lesson it teaches while it interests and entertains them.
 "The Way Back" is being exhibit ed for the benefit of disabled sol diers, sailors and marines of the Great War in the vocational train ing program of the government in partnership with the National Elks War Relief Commission. The pict ure will be presented in this city ct the Empress on Thursday night. With it will be shown a new com- edy and 2-reel picture entitled The Spirit of Elkdom" showing the war work activities of the Elks and other patriotic organizations.
