SHORTEST ROUTE TO JAPAN
Which Stretch Out Fron, Alaska Toward Asiatic Continent.

Few persons are aware that the shortest route from San Francisco to Japan is by way of Alaska Nearly a thousand miles are saved to vessels trading with the Orient by coasting along the Aleutian Islands, rather than following the Hawaiian route
 The Aleutian Islands. which extend in chain east and west for more than a thousand miles, are inhabited by the remnant of the Aleuts Their war of the revolution closed just as the American Revolutionary war be- gan. So patriotic were the Aleuts, so brave in their struggle for indepen- dence, that they succumbed to the Russians only after conflict of near ly fifty years, and then simply be- cause the race was almost extermin- ated in the struggle. While the Aleu- tian Islands must eventually form an important link in the commerce be- tween the United States and tie Orient. other islands link our country with the vast empire to the north. In the narrow Behrng Straits lie two lit tie islands, one occupied by Russia the other by the United States. so that citizens Of the two great nations live on respective islands within few miles Of each other

 Should Envy the Other.

There had been severe storm, last ing several days, and the little school teacher was getting very tired of 1t. She found 1t hard to go back and forth fo her work, and when she reached her boarding place Friday night she was in complaining mood. AS she passed through the flat on her way to her room she said to the friend with whom she boarded. a young married woman: You ought to be thankful you do not have to go out in these storms. It is horrible"
 The other young woman looked up with a queer expression in her eyes. T was just envying you. she said, ito think you were free to go. For three days I have been house-bound and Pm just ready to cry for good walk in the open air. These two ba- bies cant be taken out in such weath- CT. and I have no one to leave them with, so that keeps me shut in. You ought to be glad you can go out
 Queer. isn't it." unused the small pedagogue. how the other fellow s work often looks the more desirable. Perhaps each one of us will feel more resigned now, when we realize that every position has it's disadvantages and that, after all, nobody can fill an others"

 You know it isn't easy to find small frames designed for landscapes, frames that are longer than they are tall, but this frame can be used ei- ther way. The support on the back the foot that you spread out to make the frame stand up, is mounted on a disk in the back of the frame, a disk that can be turned so that this frame can be as readily used one way as the other, either upright or with it's greatest length horizontal"
