XII work warranted . \V illiam St. Lindsay Men were hunters and fishermen before they adopted a pastoral or agricultural life. living almost exclus- ively upon the products of the chase and the resources of the sea. In the ancient “kitchen middens” of Europe and adaptable in his dietetic habits to varying conditions of climatic and social environment. If any argument is needed for further scientific rebuttal of the extreme vegatarian View it may be found in the universal experiences of the race. The further back we go in human history, the nearer we approach. apparently, not a condition 0" pizrh vegetarianism, but on the contrary a more general and universal use of animal food. The two Things Which Make Nations Just What They Are. In the structure of his teeth and the organs of digestion, man more elosely resembles his nearer relatives of the ape and monkey tribe, who are veget- arians, than he does his more distant relations, the carnivora. Yet there are differences of structure which clearly separate him from the former as well as the latter class, and which justify us in ranhirig him as oniniverous Then Chaxlie strolled across the pasture in a. leisurely fashion, picked up his sapling, and drove the cows home to be milked. He was out 0t breath and badly thumped, but his heart swelled with thejsy of victory. But the bull had had enough. Instead of whirling to renew the fight; as Charlie expected he would, be con- tinued wildly down the field. and retreated to the furthest corner of the pasture. There he stood, with his head up, as if he wanted tojump the fenceâ€" the picture of a thoroughly beaten animal. Presently, in the course of their singular career, the bull and the boy came along beside the pasture fence. When just within two or three feet of the rails, Charlie let go the animal’s tail and dropped into a. juniper bush. Instantly he was on his feet again, his hand on the top rail of the fence, ready for escape. In two or three minutes the bull stopped whirling and again set off on a gallop; and now his bellowing had rather a note of terror than of rage. Nevertheless, Charlie did not deem it prudent to let go. He caught a glimpse of the cows huddled in a frightened group over by the bars, and he would have laughed if he could. But he couldn’t spare the breath, and, moreover, the way he was being knocked about made it unsafe for him to open his mouth. To his great; satisfaction, now, he saw that the bull was getting tired. For so fat and heavy an animal, such exer- cise is trying in the extreme. 8601i the bull stopped his race and resumed his tactics of whirling round and round. 'J~his Chariie found the more trying, but he did not lose his nerve. He bounced lightly from hillock to hillock. He kept a wary eye on either side for stumps and otner such danger- ous obstacles. He kept his wind, and what was of more importance he kept, his; grip. It was a. desperate race for Charlie, but he had practiced hanging on to the backs of “aggons, and was not to be disconcerted. Upon tEis the bull went fairly wild with rage. ‘He bellowed and snorted, whirled round and round, and finally set off at a furious gallop down the pasture. The 'bull whirled around sharp1y, expecting to dislodge his assailant at once. But Charlie held on, and nimbly keg} his legs. Fortunately for hlm, he got a good, firm grip, and the bull’s tail was long. The first strain upon hls arms was tre- mendous, and he wasjerked ofl'his feet ; but as the bull slackened up to tum, he recovered himself and got his bal- ance. He baxdly knew what to do; but a sudden inspiration seiZPd him and as suddenly, he, in turn, seized the bull’s ta: 1. him The sapling flew out of his grasp, and, before he could recover it, the bull was again upon him. This time he had all he could do to avoid the rush. As the bully chargedvhhfihim again, his anger arose. Again he jumped asideâ€"none too soonâ€"and brought down his sapling, with a. sound thwack, upon that animal’s ribs. l' ~~~-â€"vo At this attgck, Charlie was more indignant than frightened. It seemed to him a. gross piece of presumption on the part of the bull to attack him. It was flat outrageous rebelllon. b1 ly be was thinking as he walked, and presently he made up his mind that he was not going to he ordered around in that way by a boy. Charlie was walking a limp. um“ kaâ€" animal’s great body fairly grazed CLIMATE AND FOOD. THE .WATCHMAIV, LINDSAY, THURSDAY Canada to grant the use of Dominion canals to citizens of the United States on terms of equality with Canadians; the United States engaged that Cana- dians should use the St. Clair flats canal, and agreed to urge on the state governments the use of state canals on terms of equality with the citizens of the United States. Canada complied with the request, and from that date to Article 27 provided that the Govern- ment of Great Britain shoqlqi urge on Article 25 permitted citizens of the United States to navigate the St. Law- rence, and British subjects to navigate tin: Yukon, Porcupine and Stikine Rivers. Those all remain in existence because the navigation of the St. Law- rence is more valuable than that of the United States rivers. Articles 22, 23, 24 and 25 provided for arbitration as to the value of the privileges granted by articles 19 and 21. The arbitration was held and Canada. received $5,550,000. The United States grumbled greatly at the pay- men t. v Article 19 permitted Canadians to take fish in waters of the United States. This was withdrawn by the United States. Article 20 was explanatory. Article 21 permitted Canadian fish to enter the United States free of duty. Withdrawn by the United States. Article 18 permitted the United States fishermen to take fish in Canad- ian waters. This was withdrawm when the United States ended the privileges granted in articles 19 apdA2l. It may not be unprofitable to inquire what privileges were stipulated for in the treaty of Washington, how many of them have been withdrawn, and how many of them remain. It is useless to consider those not directly affecting lCanada, such as the Alabama claims, or those which are settled and of no present interest, such as the boundary controversy. It must be remembered that no one article of the compact between Canada and the United States stood by itself. Something would be granted by Canada in one article, and some compensation would be received in another article. In one instance Canada would give more than shereceivâ€" ed, in another she would receive more‘ than she granted. The idea was that the whole of the concessions on one side 1 balanced the whole of the concessionsl on the other side. When one concess- ion was refused or withdrawn the whole arrangement was disturbed. The elfect of the vegetarian habit, ‘ superadded to climatic conditions, has ‘been to develope a race notable indeed for some of its intellectual traits, but inferior in size, lacking in physical stamina and energy of character, whose millions of people easily fell a, prey, first to the Mohammedan and after- wards to the English, whose commercial enterprise for centuries las proved inferior to the small competing race of the Parseesâ€"their nearer blood relat- ions-«and whichhas shown itselflacking in those essential traits which character- ize our modern, progressive civilization. The great and successful men of all ages haVe been those who have not departed too widely from the mixed diet which has long constituted the habit of the races which have peopled the temperate regions of the earthâ€"â€" Dr. lanes in Food. The modern American and EurOpean, as is well known, is a decendant of one or more branches of the ancient Aryan or Indo-European stock. It so happens that one branch of this stock which early sepaiated from its European cousins and travelled southward to people the mountains and plains of India, through streets of climatic and religious influences because as nearly exclusively vegaratian 111 its habits as any large section of the human race has ever been, and has remained so for centuries. Here, then, is an opportunity for compariSOn. Looking at this question from the climatic standpoint, we find in the tropical regions a predominance, but not an excluswe prevalence of the vegetarian habit, while in the Arctic regions the native races resort almost entirely to the use of animal food. - In neither of these regions do we find the human race in its highest perfection. Civilization received its primararv impulse and has achieved its most notable success in the temperate'zone. and among races which are neither exclusively vegetarian nor exclusively c rrnivorous in their habits. and America, mingled with the shells and bones of fish, we find animal and sometimes even human bones, on which the marks of human teeth clearly reveal the uses to which they were put. And if we assume before this stage of human evolution a. social or ansocial state, when men live exclusively on the products of the soil, an assumption which has no warrant in the accessible testimony of archaeology or historv, We must imagine the condition of man then to have been similar to that of the Dig- ger Indian. or certain of the hill tribes of Hindostan, who rank among the lowest extant specimens of the human race.
