SHAPE OF THE SHOE.

1t ls Radically Wrong, and All on 40
count of the Last.
In the American Magazine Or. Ar
thur r. Reynolds, former health com
missioner of Chicago, tells of the many
troubles that can make life miserable
and that come from feet that were
neglected in childhood Among other
things he says:
Children should 90 barefooted at all
times while indoors and through the
summer. They should never wear any
foot covering at any time that in any
way distorts the toes or any part of
the foot or that interfcres IN any way
with its normal growth and develop
ment The same may be said of adults.
ANY reform In the shape Of shoes
must begin with the shoemaker's last.
Shoemakers do not seem to be able to
get away from form and beauty In
shaping 1t. 1t is shaped largely by
guess and Is pointed and turned up at
the toe No normal foot is so shaped.
'The only rational last is made from
a plaster cast of the foot while bearing
weight, and The mold can be made only
of some scmi-sold material that hard
ems when cool or dry There is little
hope Of getting a nationally shap l
shoe until the wooden last is totally
discarded 1t is safe to assert that
good looking and nondeforming shoes
can be made without It,"

FUTURE OF ALASKA.
A Comparison of Our Territory With
the Scandinavian Countries.

the Scandinavian Countries.
Alaska has the same latitude as Den
mark, Norway, Sweden and Finland
and similar climatic conditions. The
same development may be expected In
Alaska that has obtained In those
Scandinavian countries, Increased and
intensified by her enormously great
latent resources.
The Scandinavian countries have 16,.
600 square miles under cultivation and
$4,000 square miles in grazing. Our de
partment of agriculture has classified
10000 square miles in Alaska as suit
able for cultivation, located mostly In
the SusitWa, Tanana and Kuskokwin
valleys, with an additional 100000 suit
able for hay and grazing, and another
100000 square miles of reindeer range
This estimate makes available for ag-
ricultural purposes 100000 square
miles Of the 566,446 square miles which
constitute 4 laska's total area.
Alaska's annual output of gold is
$20000,000. Fisheries produce nearly
as much; 1t has the richest and largest
copper deposits In the world; 1t has
coal deposits equaling those Of Penn
sylvania and West Virginia In quality
and SURPRISING them in volume.
The Scandinavian countries have f.
100000 population and 100000 head
of live stock. Applying the same ratio
to the available lands of Alaska would
give her a population OF 30,O00O00,
with 10000 600 live stOck-HOn
