ALAskA,s vAsTNEss.
0nf AfG Territory Equal In sise to
Twelve Great States.

0af Hig Territory Equal In sise to
Twelve Great States.
Do you know that Nome, Alaska, Is
300 miles west Of Honolulu? Do you
know that Alaska has almost two and
a half times as much coast line as the
rest Of the United States2
It you start at Seattle and 60 up the
coast through 400 miles Of Canadian
inland waters to the Portland canal
you will come to that imaginary line
that the Alaskan boundary commission
decreed as the place where Alaska be-
gins. This inland sea Is very like the
tiords Of the coast of Norway and des-
tined in time to become one Of the
worlds great pleasure resorts, and
when you know this region you will
deplore the lack Of diplomacy which
lost us this picturesque coast line aud
left the Alaska of today detached terri
tory. In very truth the cry of 1916 of
$40 or fight" was right.
At the Portland canal Alaska begins,
and as you sail up the thousand miles
of this wonderful inland sea, Of scenic
beauty and grandeur surprising any
thing In the world, you are in south
eastern Alaska, which includes the is
lands along the coast and the mainland
from the shore line to the summit of
the coast range as far north as Mount
st. Elias. From the summit of this
high peak the boundary line between
Alaska and British Yukon territory
runs directly north to the frozen
ocean," as the old Russian treaty called
It,
The territory Of Alaska Is about
equal to the combined states Of Michi-
gan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Min
ncSota, North Dakota. South Dakota,
Iowa, Neh2 ska, Kansas, Missouri and
Kentucky. Maps are deceptive for
comparison unless they are drawn to
the same scale, and unfortunately
maps Of Alaska are generally drawn to
a small scale. But put Alaska on the
United States, and it will extend from
Savannah, Ga, to Los Angeles, Cal.
The climatic conditions differ as great
ly as those Of North Dakota differ from
those Of Florida. The mean annual
temperature Of Sitka is about the same
as that Of Washington, though the ex-
tremes of heat and cold are greater Mt
Washington.-William T. Perkins in
Worlds Work.

How n Wound Heals.

If YOU have run n pin into your thumb
or received a bayonet thrust precisely
the same thing takes place. A myriad
Of white corpuscles, those tiny first
aid" cells the phagocites) from the
surrounding blood vessels and lynn
phatic glands at once come hurryinR
to the rescue. They begin 20 clean up
whatever wreck there has been made
In the skin and muscular tissue. They
eagerly absorb into themselves or clus-
ter opposingly about all foreign mat
ter that has been introduced into the
wound. Then they proceed to pile
themselves tier upon tier around 1t
like so many little sandbags about n
broken basti2n. Later they gradually
join together and solidify into the lay

Thirty Dollar. a Word.

A poet and literary man Of some CO.
lebrity was visited In his study oue
morning by manager Of n lecture bu-
rsau, who said that hs had called to
ask the writer to take part in an en-
tertainment.
1--WE want you to read selections
from your own works, Mr.. Gillespie.
together with an original poem com.
posed expressly for the occasion. Name
your own price. Wen announce In the
prOgr'm"--
MY price" interrupted Mr. Gillespie,
will he 500
isn't that little stcep?"
"Not at all. everything considered"
The manager tried to beat him down
to $50. but lie was immovnblc. and the
bargain was finally closed at the first
named figure.
"Alpheus." said Mrs. Gillespie after
the caller had gone. wasn't that more
than you intended to charge him when
he first spoke?"
Yes" lie said: "it's just twice Ms
much. But he irritated me thirty dol.
lars worth by calling 1t 'progr'm.'"

WHY He aeea DouhIa,

The reason that q man sees double
who has gazed too long on the wine
when 1t is red Is that the nerve centers
are changed by tho action Of the alco-
hol. There Is n want Of harmony in the
action Of the muscles which move the
eyeballs. Consequently instead of both
eyes being focused simultaneously on
an object one eye receives an impress
sion independently Of the other. The
two impressions arc communicated to
the brain. and the object Is therefore
seen twice. The inflamed condition and
loss of energy in the brain centers from
overdoses of alcohol also account for
the staggering gait Of an intoxicated
man.

The Rare Mr.. Jones.

A kindly man was William Jones;
He had his say In softcst tones:
He was as gentle as n child
Until he got his dander riled.
When Mr.. Jones called some one down,
That fellow knew he was In town.
He was no stickler for his way:
He'd let tho other fellow say
How things should go and what to do
And Just what course they would pursue,
Unless he thought that Biil or Jim
Was trying to impose on him.
Then everything. he'd let them know,
Would so his way or else not go.
He'd loan you everything he had
And work a day to make you glad:
He'd stop to tell the latest naws
And listen closely to your views.
And. IL he found you in distress,
A dollar bill on you he'd press.
But IL no found you were not square.
Then there was music in the air.
Say, when you meet a man like that
Go closer and take of your hat:
They arc the ones who make life worth
The living on this dreary earth.
You'll only meet a very few
Say in n lifetime one or two
To help mankind on the alert
But buzzsaws when YOU do them dirt.

The Money Lenders.

There are many examples Of Lord
Palmerston's ready wit in Sir NJ. T..
Grant Duff's book, Notes From a
Diary" In debate about the Jews
an orator rather bored the house by

the English owed to Hebrew initiative
Lord Palmerston In reply gave the dis
cussion sprightlier turn. II quite

great deal to the Jews"

What Gave the Earth 1t. Motion,

You have often asked or had tho
question asked OF you, "What gave the
earth its daily motion, and how is the
force Of that motion kept up?" but have
never been really satisfied with the an
swer given or the reasons therefor
which you were able to advance In ex-
PLANTATION. The astronomers are not
even agreed upon this question. Some
Of them claim that the Original initial
centrifugal force" was directed In a
line slightly to one side Of the center
Of the globe. which would, OF course,
cause the earth to rotate upon it's axis
and by the law of Inertia OF matter
must continue to rerOlve Mt a uniform
rate Of speed. This claw Of the Inertia
of matter" Is to the effect that matter
once set in motion must continue to
move until arrested by some outside
force. Others claim that the motion is
compound resultant Of the motion Of
tho earth III its orbit and the attra ctiou
Of the sun"

How Icelnndera Tie Horses.

The Icelanders have strange but
effective plan for preventing horses
straying away from any particular
spot. If two gentlemen happen to be
riding without attendants md wish to
leave their horses for any reason they
tie the head OF one horse to the tail Of
the former. In this state 1t Is utterly
impossible for the horses to move on,
either backward or forward. If dis
posed to move Mt all it will be only in q
circle, and even then there must be
mutual agreement to turn their heads
the same way.
