 Primarily, the story is enc with a highly attractive theme, dealing as it does with the problem of colnmuni- cation between the spirits of the de parted and the living The theme differs from the purely spiritualistic however, in that the spirit Of the mother in the story comes 10 her daughter in visions and in dreams From this situation a fascinating plot develops and one which is filled with romance, suspense and adventure.

 There is no description of the scenic beauties offered by the rail road, the foreword of the folder stating:
 "To write of Alaska and it's matchless glaciers, it's snowy peaks. and It's unexplored vastness would be merely to repeat the contents of numerous books of travel These pages, therefore, must content them- selves with facts pertinent to the country traversed by this new trans portation route-The Peoples Rail road at the Top of the World.'
 Sixteea photographs of towns along the railroad, scenes of the rail- road, tho Susitna Bridge and Hurri- cane Gulch Bridge included. glac- iers, industries and wild game life illustrate the folder A large part of the fielder is devoted to maps of the territory, showing the location of the railroad. table of distances, and the route of the railroad, while another part contains the time tables nnd general information.
 The cover of the folder is at- raetiye in design and color scheme, showing train just entering Hur- ricane Gulch Bridge. and Mt. Me Nnley looming ups Sn- tho beck ground.
 The Commission will be glad to furnish copies of the folder to in- diyiduals who may desire same. upon request. it was stated in the letter received by The Empire from Wm Gerig, Assistant Chief Engineer.

TAKE SALTS IF STOMACH ISN'T
 ACTING RIGHT
Says Indigestion Results from an Excess of Hydrochloric
 Acid.

Undlgested fcod delayed in the stomach decays, CT rather ferments, the same as food left in the open air, rays a noted authority. He also tells us that Indigestion is caused by Hyperacidity meaning there is an exces9 of hydrochloric acid in the stomach which prevents complete di- gestion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inhate the stomach like toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery in the chest we belch mp gas; we eructate sour food or have heartburn, flatulence, water brash or nausea.
 He tells us to lay aside all di- gestive aids and instead get from any pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salts and take tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and drink it while 1t is efferyescing. and Furthermore, 10 continue this for n week. While relief often follows the first dose. it is important to help neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus pro- mote a free flow of pure digestive juices

PICTURE TELLS HOW TO BECOME WILD MAN

The question eternally confronting the unmarried and unsophisticated young man whose prospective fiancee demands devilishness in her mate will be answered Thursday at the Coliseum Theater when 'Parlor, Bed room and Bath,' from the stage com edy success by c. w Bell and Mark Swan will be projected on the screen.
 The picture is said to contain all the joyous and human hilarity which characterized the stage play when presented for a long and laugh-com- polling season in New York. One finds at the outset the problem of Reggie Irving, nice, quiet chap whp for an annoying length of time has been seeking to persuade Angelica oi the fact that he is absolutely the best article in the matrimonial de- partment store at any price. An gelica, who has an eye for color, de mands husband trimmed with a scarlet, lurid past; and hence Reggie is forced to arrange circumstances to convince the girl that Don Juan and the proverbially gay Lothario are not even in the same league with him.
 Eugene Palette, who depicted SC skilfully a similar role in "Fair and Warmer" which starred May Allison plays Reggie: and Kathleen Kirk ham is Angelica. Ruth Stonehouse has an important part as Polly Hath away. tlfe society scandal reporter; and Henry Miller, Jr.. will be seen ir an equally prominent role.

Gabrielle dAnnunzio has evolved a scenario out of which the growth of one em. pire is assured in the destruction of another From the successful pass ago of the Alps by Hannibals army and the burning of the Roman fleet we sec the changing tide in the for. tunes of war until Carthage, fighting to protect it's own domain, struggles against the inevitable.

SELDOvlA CRAB cANNERiES
 TO START UP NEXT MONTH
{ (Anchorage Times.)


 It is stated that there will be four oalheries in the vicinity of Seldovia operating and packing the large spl- del crab some time next month. The spider crabs are found in abundance ' Cook Inlet at certain times of the year. Being a deep sea crab of tre- inendous size,' some reaching seven foet from tip to tip, the average size running about five feet. This SDesies which are the least known cf. migrate to unknown regions at certain periods, returning to the shai- low waters. it is thought, to spawn, and 1t is then, for possibly three months time, that the crabs may be caught. The meat in one of these aTeTage size crabs will weigh in shc Ieighborhood of 10 to 15 pounds. 1,.d s of a pinkish red color. The meat is delicious and is constantly ;n demand in the states and in Europe.
 Prior 10 the Alaska canneries packing this species of crab the Jap anese packers furnished the United States market, but the recently in. creased tariff on the Japanese pro duet by the United States made it possible for Alaska canneries to com pete. It is thought the industry will develop into large one within a few years.
 With the exception of the Arctic Ocean, Cook Inlet is the only place in Alaska, as far as can be ascer- talned, that the spider crab is found in abundance.
