sheep run, so he gave couple of

Ps-s-st, ps-s-st, went the steam, up
jumped the sheep, down rolled a

MINGLING OF THE RACES.
Alliances Between Different Peoples
Helpful to the Whole.

Man is an animal and Darwin has
shown that not only is he closely akin to
other animals, but that the laws which
control the development Of the lower ami
mails also control the development of
man. He has also shown that cross breeds
of animals are larger and stronger than
either parent When We examine into the
origin Of the English people we find the
ancient Britons fighting and mingling
with the Romans. and subsequently with
the Picts, Scots, Danes, SaxOns, and Nor
mans. For more than 1000 years these
various breeds of men have crossed and
recrossed until they have been nodded in
to that homogeneous mass that we know
as Englishmen.
Turning to the United States, we find
the foundations of a new nation laid by
the sturdiest and most enterprisinG OF
these same Englishmen. They landed on
the then distant shore, conquered the
wilderness. organized a new government
closely akin to the old and invited the
people of all the world to join them. The
Slavs, the Germans, and the Latins
mingle together and in a few years be-
came NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. or what may be
more properly termed Anglo-Americans
The evolution going on in the United
States is also going on in Canada, in
South Africa in Australia, in New Yea
land, and in other smaller places scattered
around the world.
There is thus being formed, on gigan-
tic scale, new race of men, built on the
strongest line on which 1t is possible to
construct human beings. The different
sections of this new race have a common
language and literature. the same laws
and customs, and the trend of industrial
civilization gives them identical political
interests.

Some enterprising dealer in canned

ants are regarded a great delicacy, and
the only trouble is that they can't get
enough of them. / don't know why 1t is
but men who do hard manual labor in
cold climates acquire a strong craving
for something sour and the big, brawny
choppers and teamsters found out long
ago that ants were palatahle substitute
for pickles. They use only peculiar va
riety, large and red in color and found in
immense quantities under the bark of
dead trees. 1t is not very hard to collect
a quart pail fun, and, after killing them
by scalding, they are spread on a board
and dried in the sun. When ready to eat
they look like coarse, brown powder and
have q very agreeable, aromatic smell.
"Of course il is impossible to describe
exactly how they taste, but the general
flavor would remind you of some fine
queamishness over the nature of the
dish 1t doesn't take you long to forget it.
can't see, however, why there should be
any objection to dried ants as a table

Shrimps.
THE first time ! ever saw them eaten

Norwegian, and at noon hour he drew
