OUR CHI DREN'S CORNER
RAPID TRAVELLING.
you would imagine that you would
N have 20 travel considerable dis
tn1ncnS In nrdnr to npi from the


tances in order to get from the
temperate zone to the tropical, and
from the land of SNOW to the country
of palm trees, and in nearly all cases
this is true. but there are two places
in the world where a person can PASS
through the tropical, sub-tropical and
temperate zones inside of an hour.
Hawaii is one and Darjeeling, in north
eastern India, is another.
In both these places the trick is done
by climbing up the high mountains.
In Hawaii the traveller starts with
the warm breath of the Pacific tanning
him amid the smell of palm trees. He
passes by great clusters of tropical
fruit, n as he mounts the trees
change until ne is in the kind of seen
cry that may be found IN the southern
United States.
Still he climbs, and soon he notices
that it is much cooler and that the
character of the scene has changed to
one that reminds him of the temperate
zone, with fields in which potatoes and
other northern vegetables are growing.
In Darjeeling the change is still more
wonderful. The entrance to the table,
land on which the little mountain city
stands is through a dark. sombre tropi-
cal pass, full of mighty palms and
hung with orchids n other jungle
growth.
After a while the trees change from,
palms to the wonderful tree ferns.
These alternate with banana trees.
until. after some more climbing, forests
are reached of m%agnolias and similar
trees.
Through these magnolias the way
leads ever up, and all at once, over
an open pass. there come into view
immense thickets of Himalayan rhodo-
dendrons and the evergreen of frs and
cedars, and beyond stand the white,
grim. snowclad, frozen mountain peaks
like arctic icebergs on land.
In less than two hours a traveller can
ascend from orchids through jungles to
tea plantations, and thence to a climate
of northern roses and violets.

To Live on Six Cent. a p.y.

How to live on six cents a day has
been solved in Chicago. if charges
made by the Citizens association
against the sheriff prove to be true.
The association is seeking to force the
sheriff to expend a little more of the
sols cents a day he receives for each
prisoner on food. We found" says
De association. that the grade of beef
plates or briskets used in feeding the
prisoners could be bought for four
cents pound or less. This indicates
clearly that the cost of the meat fed
to the prisoners does not exceed two
cents a day a man. The midday meal,
in addition to the meat. consists of a
piece of bread and a vegetable. The
total cost of this meal. according to
the estimates given the association
does not much exceed three cents For
breakfast and supper the prisoners
are given only a piece of bread and a
tin cup of coffee. The cost of these
meals certainly does not exceed IA
cents each"

Building Railroad
to Hudson Bay
Chief of Arctic Survey Takes 250-
Mile Stroll on Snowshoes to
Tell of Progress.

Winnipeg, Man, March 81.
Clad in furs from tip to toe, in
the apparel of the remote North
country, George Newhall, head
of the Hudson Bay survey, has
arrived after a long and tedious
journey from Split Lake,
whence a railroad line is being
pushed to Hudson Bay.
Newhall was In splendid con-
dition, in spite of the long jour
ney through the Arctic regions
and the hardships he had en-
dured. Six months of hard
work in the open have given
him the strength of a savage.
He said that good work had
been done with the survey, and
it was likely that all the men
would be back in the city with
in another month.
The headquarters of the sur
vey were at Split Lake, $50
miles north of Norway house.
Around the place the country
is fairly level, but is composed
for the most part of muskegs,
while lakes of all sizes abound.
From an engineering stand
point it is not a difficult coun-
try through which to build a
railroad, but serious question
that must be combatted is the
transportation problem. The
surveyors could not secure dogs
there, and food for dogs was
also remarkably scarce, so that
the party had to send to Win
nipeg for more dogs to trans
port them.
The men on the survey were
not allowed to use liquor in any
form, and it was not even there
for medicinal purposes. Most
of the men are Americans from
Detroit and lake ports. 1t was
simply impossible for a man to
become sick in these lands.
Working in the winter time was
best in that country, and even
though it was so cold very few
experienced frostbite.
At times the thermometer
registered so degrees below zero
but for the most part it how
cred between 40 and As de-
grees.
