PUBLICATIONS RECEIVED
Publications of interest to Al
askans recently received by the
Seward Gateway include the ad
vance copy of the Laws and Reg
ulations Relating to Game Land
Fur-Bearing Animals and Birds
in Alaska, for 1931-32; the April
issue of the Highway Magaine
describing the projected Interna
tional Highway from Eeattle to
Fairbanks, and School Life, issued
by the Interior, describing the ad
vancement made in educational
work in Alaska.
The following is practically a
literal translation from the Rus
sian taken from the manuscript
of Fr. Gedeon, priest-monk of
the Aexandro-Nevsky Cathedral,
Moscow, Russia and was written
in Kodiak between 1804 and 1807.
The Gateway is informed that it
has never before appeared in

SHAMANISM
Shamanism (sorcery) resembled
children’s pastime. The Shaman,
sometimes nude, or attired in his
best or smeared over in the most
fantastic manner, hops around
and makes grimaces, howls to the
| full extent of his power, recalling
the name of evil spirts, runs
around, and*with these excessive
motions would reach such a state
that with eyes bloodshot, he would
drop down insensible from fatigue.
Some would resort to deceit, in
! such cases as, for instance: he
; guessed what he previously saw
} a person had, or one of his pupils
i would supply the information. If
some demanded something that
it was impossible to accomplish,
he would decline by deceit or by
something wonderful, as for in
stance: he would convince that
if he attempted the deed, he would
bleed to death. For this purpose
they prepared leather pouches
filled with blood, which they
brought with them. For this con
dition the fathers and mothers
would appoint their children at
birth, giving them a female, name
and teaching them to an acknow
ledged shaman. Fpr this reason
they were unmarried and had
their chins tattooed. It was im
possible for me to find out about
shamanism in detail, as many of
the old shamans had died during
the epidemic that visited Kadiak
In June, 1804, and others concealed
from me. During my stay at Ig
atsk settlement, one shaman
feigned that he lost his speech
from fright of his dreams.
The above mentioned epidemic
occurred at the time of our arrival
at Kadiak with the arrival of the
American-Bostonian vessel Ocean
from the California coast, and
which had on board some of the
Kadiak Americans for hunting sea
otters.—Gedeon.

DO YOU
SUFFER FROM
CONSTIPATION?
Countless remedies are advertised
for constipation. Many relieve for
the moment but they are habit form
ing and must be continued. Others
rontain calomel and dangerous min
eral drugs, which remain in the sys
tem, settle in the joints and cause
aches and pains. Some are harsh
purgatives which cramp and gripe
and leave a depressed after effect
Avoid lubricating oils which only
grease the intestines and encourage
; nature’s machinery to become lazy.
A purely vegetable laxative such
as Carter's Little Liver Pills, gently
touches the liver, bile starts to flow,
the bowels move gently, the intestines
are thoroughly cleansed and constipa
tion poisons pass away. The stomadi,
liver and bowels are now active and
the system enjoys a real tonic effect
