AS a matter of TACT a man acCus-

in Alaska and Yukon to go to bed
with the sun shining high in the

order to umb comfortably have
to pin blankets over the windows
and go to a great deal of extra
trouble to produce it. 1t is said
in the early days that the chickens
that we're first brought to the north
in the summer time went crazy Tor
want of rest. They waited and
waited for h sun to set in order
to know when to go to roost, and as
itkcontinued to shine, the fowls

eERMANYs NEW CANAL.
The Telton, % Miles Long, Diverts an
Enormous Traffic.

Berlin.-The greatest recent canal
project in Germany is the Telton
canal, near Berlin. The immense riv-
er traffic on the Havel and the Spree
has been much hampered by being
obliged to follow these streams
through the city. The Telton canal
permits this traffic to be diverted.
The canal is only % miles long, and
there is a saving in distance of only
20 miles in the main river route. But
the gain is in the time formerly nee
essary to get through the city. The
total expense of construction, includ-
ing buildings, harbors and electric
works, was about $11,50O,000.
The channel is 20 meters broad at
the bottom and from two to $50 me-
tiers deep, with a towpath two meters
broad.
There is only one lock with a fall
of water of 81 meters. In its construc-
ton the latest and most improved
system has been employed. Its gates,
etc, are worked by electricity sup.
piled by the canals own electric
works, the towing also being mainly
done by electric locomotives. Fifty
FIVE bridges had to be built, but the
expenditure is fully justified by the
enormous traffic through Berlin, which
amounted in 1905 to nearly u, 900, 900
tons.

The rich Cypress the poor enormously,
then they help them slightly. 1t is
like the young lady angler.
Why said a man to this young
lady, do you always carry a bottle of
liniment with you IN your hshi-g ex-
