The story has to do with the royal intrigues of the days of Napoleon, then banished to Elba. The rulers of Austria, Russia, Franco and other countries naturally are concerned over the fate of Bonaparte and either in person or through high ̈diplomatla representatives gather in. Vionna to decide the vanquished Napoleon's fate.

Robert Montgomery heads the cast of "Hell Below," in what critics con- cede to be the outstanding role of his career. As the young lieutenant who falls hopelessly in love with a woman already married, he is precipitated in to a stirring series of occurrences in which he disobeys the orders of his submarine commander in 'an effort to save his friend adrift at sea and tar get for the guns of a squadron of airplanes, is dishonourably dismissed from the service after unwittingly causing
the entire crow a narrow escape from a horrible death at the bottom of the ocean, and finally vin- dicates himself before both his com mander and the woman he loves in a herofe gesture in which he forfeits his life.
ELIMINATION OF HANDLING
The 'SANITAPE method of pack- ing has a distinct advantago over the crude and obsolete systom of hand packing. At no time during the pro- cess of manufacturing, compressing and packing, do ASPRO Tablets come in contact with the human hand, therefore, contamination from this source is entirely prevented, the tablets reaching the consumer in the same perfect hygienic state as when they left the tableting machines,
