GRANDEUR OF ALASKA.
Bewildering Scenic Beauty of Our
Frontier Wonderland.
Alaska should no longer be called
"No Mini's Land." Alaska Is our fron
tier wonderland, and by united efforts
we must make It tlie empire of the
north. It Is not Every Man's Land bo
cause It will not tolerate weaklings;
1 but to the thoroughbred It will offer
indescribable inducements. It Is a ter
ritory unique in Its geographical situa
tion, lu Its climate. In its physical
beauties. Point Harrow, its northern
! most cape, Is warmer than any point
| In the world as far north of the equa
tor. Its southern shores are likewise
warmer than any point in the world
In similar latitudes during the winter
mouths as the result of the Influence
of the Japan current
Isothermal lines show that some ot
the southeastern sections have a cli
mate more temperate and more equa
ble than that of Washington. Its two
climatic belts are known as the coast
region and the interior. The coast re
gion Is ruin.v. has mild winters and cool
summers. The interior region is, for the
most part, dry. has severe winters and
short but warm summers. The immense
quadrangle is divided Into three zoiies
by lofty mountains, which leave be
tween them broad plains, through
which the Yukon, with more than
2,(HH> miles of navigable waters and the
Kusk'ikwim with i open up its vast
interior.
Alaska can surpass all the scenic
hem.ty boasted by Norway. Sweden
and the Tyrol Its mouutains arc
higher than .Mont Blanc; its glaciers
dwarf the Mer de (iiacc. Unlike the
glaciers of Switzerland, which are In
closed liy inland '• alleys, the largest of
the Alaska glai Iers terminate on the
ocean Itord -r or li:t -i'»r rivers, with
towering f. .Is In: dri !< nf feet in
height uml i -s in width. Klsewhere,
lu sharp contrast, .ire the peace and
silence of ihe r<> lv!ionn<1 fiords, clad In
green, with the sii • vy peaks of faroff
mountain* glean i g through the tree
tops en the sky line, pictures more
beautiful than the Hudson or the
Rhine can shuw.-Krankllu K. Lane in

AGASSIZ AND A HERRING.
And a Student Who F'nally Succeeded
In Making a Discovery.
A student enrolli.il in Agastdz's clnss.
For several days A.a.--iz |>:ii<l no atten
tiou to him whatever. At length, tired
of standing around i-lie. the student
asked Agassiz to give liitn something to
do. Agassi/.'s reply w::< to hand him a
; herring and to s.iy. |y this." The
student was bovj: YivI. hut set about
••studying" It. 'I !n- jc*nt d y Agassiz
asked hint vim he had learned about
the honing. The student replied that It
had two eyes, so many tins and such
I and such markings.
"No. no!" Asas-'.z cried "Study it
more. Those thi < are not Important"
The next day and the next the expe
rience was repeated. The fourth day
Agu$.<iz again demanded Information
about the now rotting specimen. In a
desperate attempt at humor the stu
dent replied. "Well, it's the same on
both sides."
"That's it!" shouted Agassiz. "That's
it! A starfish isn't the same on both
sides, an oyster isn't, thousands of
specimens of tie- sea are not. When
you find one that K you've found a
starting point in a new stage in the
evolution of life."
Obviously, that student learned more
from that one lesson about the seien
titlc method of study than he would
have learned in a year's reading and
lectures. The textbooks would have
taught him the fails: Agassiz taught
him the method of learning all facts.—

Ligh'.ing a Picture.
The hall in the tlijks museum, in
Amsterdam, which contains Rem
brandt's "Ti e Night Watch," painted
in lt!42. was specially built to hold the
picture that the lighting might be as
perfect as possible. The picture is al
ways lighted, the hall always dark.
Originally the picture was arranged
badly as to light and space. When, in
1715. it was transferred from the Doe
len to the town hall It was made to fit
into its new position by having strips
cut off the canva.- on either side and
ofT the top. which destroyed the bal
ance.
