America’s Baltie, The Creat Lakes are not the Ameri- can Mediterranean, as so often they are called, but thé American Baltie, or will be such when the passage to the sea is completed. The American Mediterranean: is the Caribbean sea and the Gulf of Mexico. The latter is a body of ywarm water, ag is the Mediterranean. It is a vast basin with truly oceanic depths, and an arti- ficial work across a narrow isthmus affords communication with the Pacific, just as the Mediterranean geparates continents and by the Suez canal con- nects with the Red sea and Indian ocean, - The Great Lakes form, like the Bal- tic, a_lopg and narrow arm.

It is somg twelve hundred miles from Mont- real to Duluth at Superior's head or Chicago at Michigan's head.
