Alaska's southern tail is now open to
settlement, with the question of citizen
ship determined in advance. Canadians
are reasonably bitter over the decision,
and we are not surprised, for our good
neighbors at the North are truly loyal
to the full interests of their great and
rich domain. If they could, they would
throw Peary off the track to the North
Pole. They fear that Uncle Sam own
ing that would next grab Newfoundland
and the Hudson Bay, and lay claim to
the Arctic Circle. Possibly some time
in the future the United States and
Canada can form an impregnable west
ern hemisphere combine, reaching from
the North Pole to Cape Horn.

ANGLES LETTER.
systems of Education.

The merits and evils of rival systems of
education have become a matter of COZ :.
troversy between few prominent clergy
men and other noted writers. That no
system is quite satisfactory to all goes
without saying; but the severe criticism
and condemnation of our public school
system seems as upcalled for as it is I'M
wise.
The judgments of the clergy should
be decisive in questions concerning the
spiritual welfare of the certain number
of persons voluntarily committed to
their charge; but when a clergyman of
any one denomination interferes in the
affairs of state which affect the welfare
of all classes he should be regarded as
an ordinary citizen-subject to criticism
and contradiction. In this age of gem
eral enlightenment, adherence to the
Holy Catholic Church, and to the grand
spirit of American democracy should be
regarded as conduct consistent and per.
Missile.
Rev. Montague Geer, Vicar of St.
Paul's Chapel, New York, furnishes the
most noteworthy article upon the sub
ject, which shows purity of motive, mar
rowness, and weakness of argument
The whole etfusion is most remarkable
for its unfitness to the spirit of the age.

of the State" in this vitality important
matter. "The State for its own protec-

In the case Of the state against
George Cain, the defendant had his
hearing before Justice Peyton yeterday,
evening and was discharged. ~
appeared from the evidence that there. 3
had been liquor sold in the barn by
some Of the hired men but there was
no evidence to show that Cain had any. an
knowledge of it as he was never
around at the time any Of the sales
were made. J. j.. Weeks Of Sonris
and E. B. Goss Of Botineau appeared
for the defendant and a.. Ct Burr
appeared for the state.
A case came up before Justice PeyT
ton on Tuesday wherein Chase brothers
sued Charles Heath for $40. 90 suppose
to be due for threshing 20 acres Of flax
at two dollars per acre. The Defednant.
claimed that the threshing was to b
done by the bushel and not by the acre
He showed that the parties sueing had
done some threshing for. him before
this fall and had charged by the acre.
He also showed that they had threshedI
his nearest neighbor and charged him;
by the bushel. The plaintiff failed
to prove contract and the case was
decided in favor Of the defendant.

Told of by u Chemist. s:
Why use a razor? Why pay the BAR
ber Is cents for shave and 10 cents
extra for not cutting your throat? The
answer isn't LET your whiskers
grow" either, for DR.. Wolfram b.
Dreyfus, chief chemist of the depart
ment of public charities in New York,
has compounded little mixture which. 4
If rubbed over the face, will do the
trick as quickly and as well as the
finest Sheffield razor, says the New
York Times. This is the compound:
+ Barrii su1phidi. twenty-five parts. II Il
Saponis pulvis, five parts.
Talci veneti pulvis, thirty-five parts.
5Tritici farinB, thirty-five parts. ssg
Benzaldehydi, quarter solution. sS4
1t appears in the new hospital formu-s
larry which Dr. Dreyfus issued recent
". DR.. Dreyfus, after many expert
ments, says that he has found a shaw
| ing powder that is satisfactory and
| harmless.
The several ingredients mentioned
above, when mixed together, make a.
powder For the new scientific razor
less shave you take one teaspoonful of
4 the powder and mix it with three tea
/ spoonfuls of water. making a paste
iet Jsoiu apply It'd the face in "a mod
1 erately thick and even layer with q
/ shaving brush. After fourier five min-s
utes moisten the lather with sponge,
and in fl I'VE minutes more you can wash
the mixture off, leaving a beardless,
gashless face.
The essential ingredient Of this new
shaving mixture is barium sulphide.
which is contained in all depilatoryi
mixtures. A solution in which the
barium sulphide is the chief ingredient
, is rubbed over the hide, and the hair
can easily be scraped off Immediately
after Barium sulphide, however, is
very powerful, and the trouble with
all depilatory powders, even those
which are used as an adjunct to surgi-
cal operations, is that they are injuri-
GUS to the skin. DR.. Dreyfus there
fore looked around for something that
would render the powerful sulphide
harmless. @
The ingredients which he found
would have that effect and which are
set down in the formula given above
have strange and impressive names,
but they are really our everyday
friends. Saponis pulvis is plain pow
dered soap. which makes a lather.
Talci venti pulvis is talcum powders
and Tritici farinae is wheat tour, both
of which are cosmetic in their Effects
| Benzaldehyde is practically an arti-
fetal almond oil. the pleasant odor of
which neutralizes that of the barium
sulphide. which is not SO pleasant.

Expert Tests.

Boissevan Globe: a farmer IN
order to satisfy himself Us To the
grading of his wheat, sent q sample
to Winnipeg to be officially adjudi-
Gated upon. The reply came back
that his wheat would not grade better
than No. 3 northern. The sample
was again sent in and in due time
returned with declaration that it was
a No. 3 northern. Thinking to test
the shrewdness of the expert the sample
was divided into two parcels and
again sent in for pronouncement-the
return showing that one parcel graded
No. 3 and the other No. 5 northern.
In his attempt to ascertain the grade
of his wheat the famrer has been made
none the wiser. And thus the grades
are fixed.

Alcohol from Potatoes.

The use of potato alcohol to furnish
light, heat and motive power has been
developed very rapidly and to very
high degree in Germany. Germany pro-
duces about 55,O0O,00O tons of potatoes
a year, and uses for human food, stock
food and starch only about 35,000,000
tons. The remainder is converted into
alcohol and used as power generator
for both land and water motors and for
cooking, heating and lighting. The al
cohol vapor is burned like gas in chan
deliers and street lamps and gives a
very bright light. In districts distant
from mines it is cheaper than coal. 1t
is claimed that ton of potatoes will
generate as much candle power or horse
power as ton and half of anthracite
coal. ..1s
