ADVERTISING ALASKA SALMON.

Aiaska's canned salmon is the best in the world and gradually the world is becoming to recognize It ss premium goods But competition is ever keen ana Alaska packers are well aware that the sardine, mackere and tuna industry in California stands always prepared to forge ahead if salmon is not pushed 1t was with this in mind that the packers, meeting at Del Monte decided to spend S25000o in an advertising campaign better acquaint the con- sumer with the merits of the great silver horde caught in northern waters
 Given enough money for promotion and advertising some one has said he could elect Chnaman Presi- dent of the United States The statement may be just
 little far-fetched but it is known fact that through the medium of advertising the story of any product of quality can be raised to higher plane and made more popular with the consuming public The day of the good mouse trap when people were supposed to make beaten path to the manufacturers door is long since gone Today with communication, trans portation and media of advertising much improved the consumer has become accustomed to having the merits of the articles he buys brought to him in his favorite publication.
 The potential outlet for canned salmon in the consumer field has hardly been scratched There are still millions of people in the world who do not know there is such. thing as Alaska canned salmon Until that milenium arrives when every potential consumer knows it's merits, has actually sampled it and been convinced, advertising promotion such as the packers have decided again to carry forward is absolutely essential the industry is to survive and prosper as 1t has in the past.
 The action of the packers in deciding to spread further the gospel of Alaska salmon means not only that the industry itself viii prosper but it will have untold benefit to the entire Territory and it's people for it will carry the message of Alaska along with salmon to the trading place, of the world

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2l, 1885

Astrologers read this as rather an uncertain day. The wise will take no risks, although there will be strong temptation to speculate.
 The morning is unfavorable for signing contracts or legal papers. There may be difficulties regarding international agreements while this configuration prevails.
 There is a promising sign for start ing ambitious enterprises and many new projects will be launched within the next thirty days, the seers pro- phesy.
 Intrigue and treachery may be more widespread than ever before for there are signs read as indicating much concern over secret matters at Washington.
 Sinister agencies will work among the people who use their hands. In dustry will be hampered at a time when it is imperative to produce many articles manufactured from steel and iron.
 Warning is given that secret enc mics will mask as friends all through the national campaign and men in high places will suffer through dou- ble- dealing.
 Brokers and bankers now come under a planetary rule that should be fortunate for the country. Many big bond sales will interest Wall Street.
 Women have the promise of much gayety through the season. It will be especially fortunate for debutantes. Drama will heighten the thrill of so- cial entertainments where foreign soldiers will often be visitors, the seers prophecy.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of fair success through hard work. Gain through public interest is indicated for many.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be clever in the arts and able to profit through special gifts. Subjects of this sign know how to take care of their money.
 Francois Voltaire, famous French writer, was born on this day, 1894 Others who have celebrated it as a birthday include William Sartain, artist, 1843; Mary Johnston, Am erican novelist, 1870.

NOVEMBER 20, 1915

The paramount question in Juneau was whether or not turkey-or even b e e k st k-would arrive before Thanksgiving It was presumed the boat left Seattle last night, and should arrive in Juneau within four days, but this was problematical, since heavy seas prevailed, which might cause considerable delay. Meanwhile. the Taku continued, and few people ventured into Juneau streets Bitterly cold weather was re- corded with enough ice on the ground to make walking dangerous. All in all, Juneau morale-as the meatless awaited the coming of the boat which also brought the man of the hour y Edward Krause, accused killer of William Christie, into the custody of Gastineau Channel police-was very much lower than normally. Juneau police ascertained that the money which Krause drew from the Juneau banks was taken shortly be- fore the report, from Wrangell, of the burning of the Plunkett boat "Lue," and that simultaneously Krause had absented himself from his Juneau haunts. This tied with the Seattle theory that Krause had murdered Plunkett, burned the boat, and himself written the letter which he signed with Capt. Jim Plunketts name, carefully copied from an orig inal signature in his possession. Com parison of this signature with the one by which Plunkett signed the voting register, revealed Plunkett made two separate marsk in crossing the "t's," whereas the signature on the letter received CT ossed both "t's" with one dash. Other differ ences, evident to an experienced eye, have definitely established the sec ond signature to be a forgery, say police.
 The Elks' Ball, at which two skits one entitled Fun in Cabaret and the other Who's Who, were pre- sented, proved great success and drew large attendance.

Her face buried in her pillow, the

Apparently patients in beds nearby
had noticed nothing unusual.
Miss Norcia had been a patient a.
