, Caribou of Alaska.
Tbo chief food of the cariboo of
Alaska Is reindeer most, of a greenish
white color, which la scattered orer the
hills and mountains of Alaska. Tbclr
favorite feeding grounds are on the
treeless and semi tree less parts of the
territory, including the tnndras along
the coast of the Arctic ocean, and
down to the Pacific aide of the Alaska
peninsula. They scatter widely in
summer and collect in herds in the
fall. Each herd baa its leader, and it
Is said that if the leader is killed the
rest of the herd becomes panic stricken
and stampedes back and forth until
another animal takes the lead.

“Why, she’s been claiming that ahe’s

A Fresh Start.
“Send me some money to get me out

A Lott Range of Mountain*.
A great range of mountains once ex-
tended from the eastern end of Lako
Superior southwest to beyond the Mis-
souri river. In places they wpre a mil-)

wore them down, the sea covered them
and today they are prairie.

less brutal by turning u naturally car-
nivorous canine into a vegetarian aul-
mal.
"The point is thnt thorough mastica-
tion makes digestion more ensy uot
because ths food is broken up Into liner
particles, but because food held In the
mouth a great length of time and more
carefully masticated has usually mixed
with It a greater amount of saliva and
Its ptyalir. ferment for the digestion of
starchy elements. To hold food in tho
mouth until it is thoroughly masticated
requires a certain amount of attention,
which, by the way, is the all important
thing in the digestion of foods. This
attention people do not always give.
Saliva does uot flow well when your
mind is not on your eating.”—Cincin-
nati Commercial Tribune.
