The quantity of water diverted is much larger than at first and great new demands for it are being made on the Canadian and the Am- erican side.

(National Magazine.) There aro some oddities in Chili connected with the sphere of woman that deserve men- tion. One is that women act as conductors on the street cars. Everywhere the passenger meets the woman conductor armed with her bag and, as Mark Twain had it, 'the blue trip slip_ far a 5 -cent fare," collecting the coins fully es well as her masculine com- petitor and much more politely. In the shoe at orae all the "salesmen" are girls and wo- men and in the telegraph offices in city and country young women are invariably found as operators. And they do their work well too. But to offset this, in a Chilean hotel or boardinghouse and in many residences men do the work of the chambermaid. Am- t erican ladies are always shocked to find that a man servant "takes care" of the sleeping rooms in the hotels of Chili. An Unavoidable Incident. (Houston, Tex., Post.)
