The island of Attu, at the end of tize Aleufian chain, is not far from Asia. From north to south Alaska reaches almost as far as from Canada to Mex zcc.
 This mighty territory is world in the variety of its lands and waters. It 1s a country of seas, lakes and rivers and of almost as many islands as the empire of Japan It has a vast con tnental mainland, with mountains and valleys, rolling plateaus and great low land plains. I travelled a thousand miles through rocky islands in going from Seattle to Skagway and later passed through the Aleutian archipel- ago. which extends from the end of the Alaskan peninsula about as far westward as the distance from the Att lanf1c ocean to the Mississippi river. The island of Kodiak is as big as Porto Rico, and Prince of Wales island is as large as Connecticut.

Teeth of "a Shark.

In respect to it's dentition the shark is Every remarkable creature The while other species vary in the number eff rows they possess. It must be un- aderstood, however, that the shark only uses one row at a time. The other rows lie down inside the mouth be- hind the edge of the jaw, erecting themselves when it is time for them to take successively the place of the first row. When one observes how keen edged these incisors are it seems no wonder that they can bite off a big rope as readily as if it were thread.

The oehtIe Ar4 of smiIina-

A mother had a little girl, her first child, who seemed to have been born with 3 scowL Perfectly well, Still she had a morose disposition which it seemed as though nothing could alter. When a second child was born the mother made rule that no one should look at the baby without smile. With the Imitation of childhood the baby at Nonce began, even in her early weeks, to smile back, and as she grew, and the rule still held in the home, she de ,veloped into what every one who knew her called .tte smiling baby'' and grew up with the sunniest disposition, joy to every one. Now, what that mother did any mother can do. A child may actually inherit a serious, even a su1len disposition. yet these may. be crowded out while they are undeve1- oped by the habit of cheerfulneSs2 Woman's Home Companion.
