are chiefly resident in tropical coun-
tries is quite a mistake, the home of
the mightiest legions being within and
about the Arctic circle. On coasting
trips to the North cape even vessels
) are invaded by maddening swarms at
every stopping place. 1t is reported
that in Alaska they form clouds 50
dense that it is impossible for sports
men to aim at objects beyond. Native
dogs are sometimes killed by them, and
even the great grizzly bear is said to
be occasionally blinded BY their at
tacks, and finally starved in conse-
ouencs.
