THIS is a house of hospitality whose owner cotnbined his ex travaganco in entertainment with an innate modesty in home econ- omy by using the bottles left after his guests had departed to make a substantial and. unique filling for an empty window frame. Win- dow panes were scarce in the Yukon in those days of the Gold Rush and the chances are, that before the bottles were placed in the opening, paper or hide was used to let the sun rays in and to keep out as much as possible of the cold and rain, The Yukon and Alaska are alive .with mementoes of a past that is dead, Each summer thou- sands of tourists from the United States and Canada,; and many from overseas as well, take the colorful journey across the con- tinent through the great wheat fields of the prairies and by Jas- per Park and Mount Robson in the ',Canadian Rockies --Mount Robson is the, highest peak in the Rockies—to Vancouver and Prince Rupert where steamers equipped with every modern de- tail take them through the In side Passage to the glamourous land of the Midnight Sun. The lower picture shows the: Prince Henry, newly constructed ship of the Canadian National' Steamships, which will make its first voyage on this popular run from 'Vancouver on July 3. Launched by Ishbel MacDonald, i daughter of the British Prime Minister, it is the first of three.' new steamers •for the Canadian National Pacific Coast Service. Two others, the Prince Robert • and the Prince David will ply _be- tween Vancouver, Victoria and Seattle. The Prince Henry will supple- ment the Alaska service already afforded by the CNS Prince Rupert and Prince George of the same line which have become widely known among travellers on the Pacific Coast r .

Who was the inventor of the elec- tric telegraph? asks Answers. Most people would hesitate ores the answer, and if you'aske.d further when it was invented, they might be reduced to mere guessing. The other day, however, a portion of a copper cable, used in the earl- iest experiments iii electric tele- graphy, was presented to the Science Museum at South Kensington. It had been buried in the ground for well over 100 years. It was in 1816 that the electric telegraph was invented, and the in- ventor was a famous meteorologist, Sir Francis Ronalds. He offered the invention to the Admiralty, but their reply was that "telegraphs of any kind are now totally unnecessary, and that no other than the one now in use will be adopted." The telegraph "now in use" wasat semaphore telegraph. Ronalds' in- vention was of real practical use, though it took rather a long tune to transmit messages. This would doubt- less have been remedied had he con- tinued to work at the idea, but the Adndiralty's reply discouraged him, and he turned his attention to other subjects. B1:(1 PLAYGROUNDS.
