1. In 1689 James II. was driven out of England and found refuge in France. There was already jealousy between England and France over possessions in America, and the result was a series of wars lasting until 1763. In King William's War, 1689-1697, Queen Anne's War, 1702-1713, and King George's War, 1744-1748, practically nothing was accomplished except that the English took Louisburg and gave it back again. The final struggle, 1756-1763, was the inevitable result, as the settlements of the two nations had come closer and closer together, and bitterness between the governments at home had become intensified. As a result, France gave England all territory east of the Mississippi and all of Canada, and ceded her claims west of the Mississippi to Spain.

5. Give the parts of a physiologically ideal meal.

1. Both lungs would not collapse, as they are separated from each other by the mediastinum, the walls of which are formed by the two pleura.

2. The function of the pancreas is, to provide the pancreatic juice, which figures in the digestive process in the following way: (1) Its trysin changes proteids to peptones. (2) Its amylopsin changes starch to maltose. (3) Its steapsin changes fats to fatty acids and glycerine.

3. Fainting is due to an insufficient supply of blood in the brain, which may be brought about by hemorrhages, or by a momentary stopping of the heart's beat. Any remedy, either natural or artificial that will cause an increase of blood to flow to the brain may be applied.

4. Animals having a backbone are usually thought of as vertebrates; however, their essential characteristic is the facts that they are bodies containing two completely enclosed cavities, one enclosing the spinal cord and the other the heart, lungs, digestive organs, etc.

5. Repeated experiments show that the average man needs daily about the following amount of food material: Water, 3000 grams; proteids, 131 grams; fats, 88 grams; carbohydrates, 400 grams. This proportion may be secured in the table of articles of diet: Cheese, 272 grams; peas, 520 grams;
