In Guiana if child is slow in its movements the parents apply an ant to the child instead of whip 10 make 1t move faster. This little ant bites more cruelty than mosquito, and it's bite is apt to be troublesome after. ward. As you can imagine, this treat ment does not make the child kind 10 others. and the children of Guiana are said 10 be particularly crue! to ami mals. The little boys in Guiana do not reckon their age by years, but by their ability to endure pain. Until he gets to the point where he can let the Hucu ant bite him without winciay he is considered merely baby.

famous White Pass, where one may
stand with one foot on British and
the other on American soil
The steamboat trip is made close to
the shore at all times, and the route
is through Il bewildering network of
channels, there being so many islands
that they have never yet been num-

The gold output from the Klondike

from which point there is railroad

traffic is something wonderful, and
people are even now engaging their
tickets for next year. Something like
80 excursion boats of between 1000
and 5000 tons are used for the Alaska
trip. Mr.. Cutler says he saw the
largest wood pulp mill in that country
that he ever befeld, In fact the supply
of spruce timber there is almost un-
touched as yet, so the future develop
ments in the wood pulp manufactur-s
ing line look illimitable. The country
is also a paradise for hunters and fish
ers, wild game of every sort abound-
ing The salmon run this year has
been SO heavy that the canneries gre

saw the sailors from their boat catch
