A canal which, when it is completed, will he the most wonderful waterway in the world, has been started at Felsenau, in Germany. The scheme is to connect Rotterdam, in Holland, with Basle,- the capital of Switzerland, by means of the River Rhine and a vast canal, stretching across Europe to the Swiss lakes, Geneva and Neuchatel, . The work has been started at the Rhine end. The greatest difficulty will be-the section that passes through the town of Geneva. It has been decided to bore a huge tunnel, and consequently it will be possible for ships of 700 tons to sail under the streets and houses. Between Geneva and Neuchatel there will be 30 locks, which will raise the surface of the canal 200 feet above the late. The germs of Colds—Catarrh and Influenza are having a great time—fight them with Nazol. 8
