We found troublesome ravines of great depth . where • st•reamlets 'had cut their way through. • In 'going down one cf those diffi- cult ravines, I had an accident that Might have been fatal. The ravine, the sides of which were almost ver- tical; was, -very narrow --only about ten metres, across. We let ourselves down, holding on to a liana. When We reached the bottom, we founda tiny brook winding,its way between .great round, boulders that left a spy:"se about two feet tyid,e for the water.

Annexing Canada. The United States Congress seems 'Vexed over Canadian advertising among Atnerican farmers. The Senate's lobby committee discovered that Canada has been spending about $00,000 a year for advertising—and has drawn some 800,- 000 Americans over her borders in the last ten years. Senator Nelson in ex- amining Mr. Alfred Washington. an ad- vertising manager, spoke as follows: "You were hired by a foreign govern- ment to do an act of disloyalty to your own country. Are you not. ashamed?" Ml'. Washington replied that • he did not think it unpatriotic or disloyal- to oir- culate such matter as that in question. The New York World agrees and adds that "if the lobby committee has swept the lobbies clear of every nuisance but this it might as well report and get a new job." Canada," retharks the New.

' The suggestion that macadam roads be not constructed anywhere and that brick paved highways be made the rule has much to commend it. The cost of maltg bik veo much in"pera mile asrathant of rmadacadaistwicem, buast the cost of repairs to the latter is figured•at twenty times as much a year' as the upkeep of a brick road. Macadam roads did well enough when nothing better was In sight, but the character of the vehicular traffic has greatly changed. Automobiles wear out macadam roads faster than wagons did, and brick pavement for automobile traffic is$o much better. The increas- ed' cost of the brick roads in the end is true economy. Toleration in China. President Yuan Shi hal has issued a mandate explaining, that in prescribing the worship of Confucius he does not establlsh Confucianism, as the official form'of Worship for the people of other religions. • "The ehoiee of religions is still lent to the people," and diversities of faith from,whatever cause will be.re-, spectetl..

At the last general election the regis- ters were those used for its remote pre- decessor, established under Midhat Pasha In 1876, and "suspended" from 1577 until the revolutinn of 1905, and they can hardly have been revised ex- tensively during the war or since. There is one member to every 00;000 inhabitants, and every 600 voters are entitled to elect a delegate; these dele- gates then meet at the chief town of the constituency, and elect the actual members. Thus the eecond stage of the election is liable to be influenced by the local authorities, and there have been bitter cominlaints th:at the Chris- tian population have been under-esti- nin :\lated andunder-represented, especially No doubt the uuestion of recognizing the Young Turl:s will under the circumstances cone up for the de- Tcisionurkey. of the powers. Constitutionalism must be upheld at all costs even in Mortality Prom Pneumonia. Croupous or labor pneumonia, so- called because of its affecting an entire lobe of the lung at once, ia one of the most fatal forms of that disease, and the discovery of a serum for it is a dis- tinct advance in medical science. This is another triumph for the Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research, which is doing such good service in- the war against disease, and as in the ease of the typhoid serum and the diphtheria antitoxin the new remedy had a long and painstaking test before it was of- fered to the public as a cure. Three years or experiment at the institute warrants the gratifying announcement that mortality from pneumonia will now be greatly reduced. Mr. Rockefeller has recently added a 111111ion dollars to the endowment fund for the .establish- ment' of a department for the study of animal diseases.
