Alaska, both of which had been firmly
established before the news of the war

have excluded England's Hudson Bay

Company from all the territory west
Of the Rocky mountains. That dis
pute about the ownership Of the pres
ent States Of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, which did rot end until Eng
land gave up all claims in 1916 to the

place, for England through her fur
traders would never have obtained
foothold there. All the present Cana

The Real "Boy" in Fiction.

1t was Miss Yonge who first intro
whom 1 played, studied, quarreled, and
made up every day or two of my life,
whose standards Of honor and play l
tried to make my own, whose faults l
had a wholesome aversion to, and who
was one of the strongest formative
influences Of my childhood. He stands
out against the romance, the chivaly,
the high ideals, and poetic fancy OF
Sir Walter Scott as the intimate COM
panion of everyday life. Into world
in which fairies were already unfold
ing from the truest realities Of eX-
istence into the tradition, the aura
which makes reality forever budding
prophecy and promise, he brought
ceaseless activity and the opportunity
to exercise it, keen love Of the rough
and tumble of life, and an equally
keen desire, not for money to buy
beautiful things, but for capacity to
know and enjoy them.
Miss Yonge's Boy is not always
clever, AID he is never perfect, but
he is SO haalthly and sanely alive that
he makes you ashamed not to be the
same. Then, too, his opportunities are
always at hand-there is no need Of
shipwrecks and desert islands, and a
ship conveniently above water with
convenient supplies until you have
made friends with your island and
your man Friday and yourself in your
strange new life. You might long for
ever to be Robinson Crusoe in vain,
but you could be Harry May, or Nor
man, or Reginald, or any one OF
score of boys, by just making the most
Of your own country and your place in
it.-Gunton's Magazine.

Killing Ant. with Cannon.

Artillery charged with grapeshot has
been employed to destroy great for
tresses which the termites, or warrior
ants, have made in many tropical coun-
tries.
In South Africa the termites work
enormous havoc. They live in re
public Of their own, and some of them
have wings. The workmen, the SOL
diers and the queens, however, have
none.
1ngs, the soldiers defend the colony
and keep order and the females, or
queens, are cared for by all the others.
These become, in point Of fact, mere
egg laying machines which have to re-
main tied to one spot.
Their nesting homes are often TWEEN
ty feet high and pyramidal in shape.
Cattle climb upon them without crush
Ing them. A dozen men can find shell
ter in some Of their chambers and ma
tive hunters often lie in wait inside
them when out after wild animals.
The ants construct galleries which
are as wide as the bore of a large
cannon, and which run three or four
feet underground. The nests are said
to be five hundred times as high as
the ants body, and it has been esti-
mated that If we built our houses on
the same scale they would be four
times as high as the pyramids Of
EQypt
