The Way Grandma Calculated It.

The distance to Alaska and the length of time it takes to go there and return, was emphasized recently when a proud grandma of a month-old baby started for Alaska to make the acquaintance of her little grandson. He, with his mamma, was to return to the civilized world with the grandparen/t, so she, among the store® she carried, took with her two or three little suits of boy’s clothe®, trousers which the baby of a month will have to grow up to by the time the visit has been made and the party is ready to start homeward.— New York Times.
