According to the report of the depart

miles, says the Boston Transcript. The
principal items Of the years output

output Of S4,961 cords was 12,2So cords
In excess of 1905. The pulp mills at
Sault Ste. Marie, Spanish River and
Sturgeon Falls were running to their
full capacity during the year.
In connection with the free grant
districts, where the areas suitable for
settlement have been pretty well taken
and the lots remaining are largely I'M
suitable for agriculture the department
has Instituted a system Of homestead
Inspection to enforce compliance with
the condition OF settlement. Owing to
the Increased value of woods other
than pine a desire has sprung up to
take up lots not suitable for agricul-
turaT purposes in. order to dispose Of the
timber. Under the system now adopted
lots applied for are inspected to ascer-
tain IL they comprise a sufficient pre-
portion of good land to warrant the e1-

by farming. If 1t is obvious that the

I think that the sanitarian can now show that any popu-
lation coming to the tropics can protect itself against
yellow fever and malaria by measures simple and mex
pensive.
With these diseases eliminated, life in the tropics for
the Anglo Saxon will be, l believe, more healthful than
in the temperate zone, and gradually, in the next two
centuries, tropical countries, which offer a greater return
for mans labor than the temperate zones, will be settled
by the white races and become again the centers Of
wealth, population and civilization, as they were at the
dawn of history. +

BIRDS HAVE A HARD TIME.
Always Dod$inE Death and Have a
Severe Struggle for a Living.

Iva D0dEinE Death and Have q
Severe Struggle for a Living.
81 was sitting at my window the
other day." said a bird lover, while
half a dozen sparrows were picking
furiously and savagely crowding one
another round a bit Of bread about the
size Of a boys marble. They were
hungry. I know that by the way they
pushed and showed and elbowed n
another around the bread and by the
disputes and side fights that were con-
stantly taking place.
"A carriage rolled by in the street.
In an instant every bird took wing and
flew up to the branches of a tree over
head. After the carriage had gone they
came back, but had hardly got q bite
apiece when a boy appeared, and away
they all few. Then a man, next a
woman, after her a dog. and after the
dog a delivery wagon scared them off,
SO that ere the crumb disappeared the
birds at least a dozen times were
frightened up into the tree, to come
back and be scared of again.
The incident set me to musing oyer
the vicissitudes Of natures life and
the comforts men enjoy, but do mot
appreciate. Suppose that all the board.
ers OF a fi~rst-class house had to rush
away from the table and run into the
third story half a dozen times during
their dinner, to keep from being killed,
do you think they would have much
appetite? Suppose you had to bolt out
OF your oom into the street a hundred
times a day to save your life, wouldn't
living become a burden? Yet the birds
are boiling all day long, every day In
the year, and all their lives, from real
OF imaginary danger, for the one is as
bad al the other.
Suppose when we got up in the
morning in a room without a fire We
had to so out and work for our break
fast before we got any, then find an
other job to pay for dinner and the
third before we could eat supper; sup
pose that all our yictuals were cold,
that after hustling all day and not get
ting enough to eat we had to roost un-
der the caves of q house or under
somebody's porch and watch for cats
all night long-wouldn't men 60 and
jump in the river rather than worry
with such a life? Yet that is the birds
life in winter. In summer food 10
abundant, the temperature is pleasant
and the, birds seem happy IN spite Of
their constant danger from boys and
stones and guns By day and from cats
and owls at night. Maybe birds have
no memory for dangers past. II Q
MAJ runs the risk Of being killed by
falling off a street car all his acquaint-
,nces have to listen to the story at In
teryals for weeks, but a bird lodges
,leath every ten Minutes through the
day. then Gun a twig and sings 40
cheerily as though there were not q
stone nor a gun in the world. No re-
greet for the past, no forebodiug for
the future, no worry about rent or
taxes or coal bills; no pantry and no
fear that anything will spoil in keep
ing-vho wouldn't like to be q bird?"

and generals, the battles they fought and the victories
they won, the causes and the effects Of the wars in
which they were engaged, constitute a very large part Of
the material Of instruction. The boy loves power and
admires every exhibition of personal and national
strength.
1t seems to me that our text books, our examinations,
and our instruction should glorify the arts of peace
above the arts Of war. In other words, history should
be taught from a more rational point Of view. While
it would be wrong to rob the soldier Of a just share Of
glory, it will nevertheless be wise to emphasize the vic
tories Of peace above the victories Of war.

lines to prevent tuberculosis.
Our work for the immediate future seems to lie In the
direction Of generalizing and systematizing An immense
service can be rendered by arousing the interest of pri-
vate and Incorporated employers of labor. Mill owners
and managers, as a class. are Intelligent and humane,
and their attention Should be called to this matter by
their physicians. The result would be a saving, not a
loss, to the employers, while the benefit to the individual
workers would be great.
