The Enalish Channel.

One Of the most famous otis OF water
In the world is the English channel
which separates and yet unites the sis
ter countries of England and France
and has been the scene OF SO much OF
their history. 1t extends on the Eng
lish side from Lands End to Dover
and on the French side from the island
Of Ushant to Calais. Its entrance fron
the German ocean is the strait Of Do
yer, twenty one miles wide. while al
the other extremity, where 1t Joins the
Atlantic. it is 100 miles from shore tc
shore. The greatest width midway ii
$50 miles. Owing to the strong current
setting in from the westward, the high
winds which frequently prevail and
the configuration Of the shores Ii has
a roughness which has become proven
bal and few cross 1t without seasick

ksdIsk Islands Queer Climate.

OF the abnormal climate OF Kadiak
island, Alaska, a writer says: "ln spite
of its situation In such high ATTITUDES
we find here what may well be de-
scribed as the parting OF the ways be-
tween the arctic aud more temperate
regions For, thanks TO the moderating
influence Of the japanese current
which flows along it's southern coasts,
Kadiak Is favored with climatic condi-
lions such as are unknown even In
places a few miles north or east Of II
on the mainland OF Alaska. So pro
nounced Is the demarcation line that
even on the island itself traveller In

amid forests and vegetation OF almost
tropical luxuriance into barren, des-
olate land Of silence. where lofty snow
capped mountains tower alOft, brood

an arctic winter, which will soon de-
scend once more, enveloping them In

you should always remember that
most cough and cold cures are consti-
pating. Yet the most important thing
to do when you have a cold is to move
the bowels. You cannot promptly cure
a cold until you do this. Kennedy's
Laxative Cough Syrup stops the cough
by allaying Inflammation Of the throat
and lungs, and II drives the cold from
the system by gently moving the
bowels. Children like It, for II tastes
nearly as good as maple sugar. Sold
