A ONTARIO Treaty Provides for Boundary Adjustments Slight adjustments in the Intern. tonal Boundary between Maeda and the United States which will remove certain anomalies and otherwise ,situp lily the work of the International Boundary Commission, are provided for in a treaty signed at Washington on 24th February, 1926. All matters concerning the boundary between the Dominion and the United States are handled by a' joint -commission com- posed of one,cotnnsissioner from each country, Mr, sJ:.17, Craig, Director General of Surveys, Department 05 the Interior, being Ibis Britannic Ma. jesty's Cemmissioneo'. lilaps of the vicinity of the north- westernmawt point on the lake Of the Woods, based on notes of the surveys of 1872, (Bowed that this fueridan boundary intersected in five places the boundary passing through the lakes ,and the treaty recently signed provides for the moviug'of the bound- ary point known as the "northweatern- most point" of the lake of the Woods 4,785 feet due south, and thereby transferring' to Canada two small water areas of about two and a half aeras in extent which were formerly part of the Called, States, but which were entirely surrounded by Canadian waters, a somewhat anomalous eitua- tion,, The treaty also stipulates that the boundary south of the provinces et Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Al. berta, shall.' consist of a series of straight Lines joining adjacent bound- ary monuments, instead of the pre- sent series of curved lines which are dififoult of determination. The straight lines never deviate from the curves ones more than a few inches, and the total area involved is only about 25 acres, along a boundary of853miles In length. In this case the United States is the gainer. A small zone of water in Grand Manan channel be- tween the provinces of New Bruns- wick and the state of Maine and form- erly of controvertible jurisdiction, has been, divided between the two coun- tries by extending the boundary 2,383 metres from its former terminus, to the high seas. :The Meaty as'o pro- vides for the permanent maintenance of the boundary line in a state, of ef- fective demarcation, by repair and re- newal of boundary monuments and the reopening of boundary vistas. The adjustment of the boundary in the Lake of the Woods region is a mat• ter of -considerable satisfaction. The earliest reference to thepoint la con- tained in the .description of thli boun- daries of the United States in the treaty of Paris of 1783. By the treaty of Ghent; 1814, commissioners were appointed to decide upon the bound- ary - ary through the Great Lakes as far west as the nofthwesternmost point of the lake of the 'Woods. In 1818 the 49th parallel of latitude was decided on as the boundary from the lake of the Woods to the Rocky mountains; in 1824 the latitude anrr'Toneitnds o the northwosternmostpoint in the lake Of the Woods was determined, and in 1872 a line was run south connecting this point ad the 49th parallel. Money -Changing in China. Everywhere most of our troubles are money troubles, wrltee Dorothy Dix in My Trip Round the 'World, but no- where is the yudney question such a vexation to the spirit as it is in China. There every city issues its own cur- rency, which is not legal tender in any -other city, Pekin money is not good in .Shanghai; Shanghai dollars will not peas in Hongkong; the Can- ton merchant refuses your Hongkong pelf; and you aro forever running to the money -changers, who charge you a big discount for turning the currency of one city into that of another. Worse still, there. is "big money" and "little money," both of which You must have, and this is a sort of a financial joke that you never quite un- derstand. For you can take a dollar, which is "big motley," and get it changed into "little money," and have a dollar and fifteen or ae dollar and twentyce$ts. Ifyou bay some small y article that you can pay for with the exact amount in "li•ttle money," the march"ant will -take it; but if you buy an article costing, say, one dollar and, twenty-five cents or one dollar and a half, he will not take back In part.pay- ment the 'little money" he. has just given you. Nowhere is there so much counter- feit, money as in. China, and in no other place ie" counterfeiting so skill- fully done. Lead dollars that look ex- actly like the real thing are as plenti- ful as blaalkberries in summer, and in addition there are other dollars in which the silver has been dug out from the insides and the other surface; carefully restored; so you have to -be careful to deal only with reputable moneychangers, who stamp in black or else nick every dollar they give you. That is their "chop," and it is a guaranty that thole money is the real thing. There are certain creatures which neverseel the pangs of thirst, for they are 'se constituted that drink is unnecessary to them, and they never swallow a drop of water in their lives.

Most people would be surprised if told that the dandelion growing en their back. lawn had its origin in Afri- ca. Yet this night easily bo so, for seedy do travel in the most remark I Iiow, then, do they do it? One way Is by air: Those that- travel in this manner have a kind of wing or para- chute attached to their seed, by means of which they can be earriel by the wind for miles before' they finally tomo to earth and grow. Others with the aid of a light float take a sea voyage and travel with the current of the water for; great dis- tances. But -by: far, the most interest- ing way ofall is the seed that travels with animain and birds. This is doue with the help of a hooked attachment wbicll clings to the animal's fur. Charles Darwyin once took from the foot of a wandering bird a small frag- ment of hardened earth; this he mobs- toned and w.^rmed, and waited with cer•ionity to see whether or not any - : thing would grow front It. To his sur- prise no fewer-, than eighty plants sprang from this :small portion of soil. MANY. MOTHERS RECO END THEM Baby's Own Tablets Are Fine for Nervous, Sleepless ,Children. From Canada the fame of Baby's Own Tablets is spreading over the world. Mothers recommend them to other mothers and wherever they are tried nothiug but words of praise are heard for these pleasant tasting little tablets that promptly. relieve the minor ailments of young children. "Baby's Own Tablets are one of the best remedies for cliildrea's- ailments I have ever used," says Mrs, Arthur T. Allen, of. Auburn, Me. "My little girl was nervous and could not sleep. I tried the tablets and she was re- ]laver] at mice. She was also troubled with constipation and nothing seemed to help,, her. I had used the tablets but a short time before her bowels were regular.

The new wireless station which the British .Government expects to open next year at Rugby will make it pes- sible for Great Britain to1 a n talk to the entire world without the aid of inter- mediaries. Trials start in November, with twelve "Eiffel Towers," as the giant masts which rise 820 feet in the air, are called. Never before Inas the Eiffel Tower In Paris been approached so nearly in height within the British f f Empire, although the famous tower in Paris is 00 feet high. The masts are among the tallest in the world, and are twice the height of St. Paul's dome. Five other stations aro being built simultaneously with Rugby --at Bodnuin, Bridgewater, Skegness, Grimsby and Dorchester.
