If there be any senge in the teachings of history: if there be any rational system of deduc tion from the promptings of human nature, the rottenness of Society, and the corruption of Government in Great Britain is approaching the point at which the whole thing bursts and explodes. The extraordinary, reluctance to put the machinery of the law into motion against the distinguished Individu Is who have emulated in London the manners and customs of Go. morrah might serve merely to instil conviction that the offenders have it in their power to im- plicate some personage whose involvement might Occasion a shaking of the entire structure of the Constitution itself" Nations have endured such things and worse, to escape what appeared at the But the natural mind moment greater evils. revolts and rages at an absolute perversion of justice. The mighty may escape their due dis grace and punishment, but that the lash arrayed for the back of evil doen should be directed against the innocent is a sort of outrage which no people has ever submilled to for long. The case of a community in which such symptoms of decay and corruption appear is simply hopeleas. No mpirical or merely makeshift treatment will cure such disorders in the body politic. It is mortifying and must die, unless an entire change of regimen be resorted to. In that way only can it purge itself of its morbid grossness and survive. If it be allowed to run its course, the grave of nations which has iclosed over so many mighty empires will swallow! it, and from the swelling corse of a people which

THE VALUE OF ATHLETICS. During recent years there has been a marked increase in the interest taken in athletic exercises. It has not been confined to any particular sec tions of the country, apparently, but has made itself felt from the Atlantic to the Pacific It undoubtedly indicates another and a very Important advance of American civilisation, and its effects will become more marked as time passes. Athletics is a matter that has a far deeper significance then Appears on the sur face, and is one which should engage the sentiment of patriotism as it once did in Greece, and as it now does in Germany. It was the love of country which influenced the Father of the Turners to establish in the Father- land those clubs which are now found wherever there are Germans. It was the idea that the strong muscles of her men must be Germany's protection that led to their organization. What the German soldier of to-day is capable of doing the world knows, cater the France
Prussian war has affirmed that it was the strong thigh of the German soldier which won his victories, and that the safety of nations lies in the trained strength of the people rather than in the trained intellects of Generals and statesmen. It is for this reason, if for no other, that athletics should receive the encouragement of the people. Though we cannot probably become a nation of athletes, it is possible to raise the standard of physical strength and health so that our power may increase twice as fast as our numbers. Already the effect of the more general athletic training is beginning to be seen in the more stalwart forms of the young men in our colleges, where formerly the cultivation of the brain was at the expense of brawn, and. in the younger generation throughout the country. Perhaps the most not ble example of the benefits derived from the grows ing desire to
possess perfect physical health will be found in the young women of New York, where athletics has for some time been somewhat of a "fad." It has been noticed by some observers that the women of the upper classes, where physical training is more wystematic than elsewhere, begin to form another race, as it were, larger, aronger, more graceful and more beautiful than their sisters. They also begin to show physical superiority over their husbands and brothers, who by reason of busi- ness or indifference pay litle attention to the cultivation of the body, The weaker sex is in "this instance becoming the stronger, and is developing a courage and self-reliance that can hardly fail to raise the plane of life,
f
THE AGE OF ALUMINUM.
The difficulty of producing It cheaply alone prevents aluminum, according to a writer in the Spectator, from becoming the universal metal. That this is no fable may be casi'e realized if we stop to consider the intrinsic value of aluminum. To begin with it is present everywhere, and were the process of extraction easy, not only no country, but no district and even no parish would have to rely upon its neigh- bors for its supply of the prime necessary for Iron can only industry and commerce.
be produced where nature bas deposited lodes of a particular ore, and the nation not pos sessed of this natural gift is forced to purchase it from without. Aluminium lies everywhere close at hand. In siste, in feldspar, in many kinds of rock and in ordinary clay it resta con- cealed, and hence, could only a simpler process of extraction than that now in use be devised, it might conceivably be as easy to manufacture the metal as to make bricks and pottery. As in many parts of the country the earth that is dug out of the foundations supplies a great portion of the bricks required to build the house, so aluminum, might be produced on the very spot where it was required.
Bearing in mind these qualities, and imagin ing aluminum to be used where iron is now employed, it is obvious that many of the great problems of mechanics, when applied to industry, world be solved. Take the case of speed' in ocean navigation. At present, one of the great difficulties is the weight of the vessels. It is practically impossible to get engine-power
A
sufficient to obtain more than twenty miles an hour. Suppose, however, the weight of the material ont of which ships are constructed is reduced by one-half, and their sides coated with a highly polished, non-corrosive substance. Under such circumstances there can be little doubt that the vantage in favor of hand tran- sport as regards speed would be done away with, and we should think nothing of vesels crossing the Atlantic in seventy-two hours. swift passenger-ship, built of materials offering as little resistance to the waves as glass, and lighter and more buoyant, might easily accomplish fifty miles an hour. Then, too, ships drawing only the same amount of water as at pretent might accommodate a great deal more cargo, while large and commodious vessels would require far less depth of water to float them than at present. In inland navigation this would be of the utmost importance. It is calculated that a hip which, if entirely constructed of iron, would draw twenty-six feet of water, would, when made of aluminum, not draw more than four or five. Practically, then, the light metal would treble or quadruple the number of miles of navigable river in the world.

Whether those who are now endeavoring to make aluminum the metallic staple, will in the end succeed, or whether the search for the metal of the future will prove as fruitless as that forA LODGE will be held in FERMASONS
the philosopher's stone, remains to be seen. Possibly some accident may bring about the usurpation of aluminum in a very few years, but equally possibly, further research may show that it must remain physically impossible to produce it except at great cost and labor, We are la the habit of saying that in the end science conquers all difficulikes, but this is by no means really the case. We hear most of those it over- comes but, as a matter of fact, there are as many defeats as victories. Still, there is some chance that the secret may be discovered and the ideal metal be yet forthcoming.
HOW PILLS ARE MADE.
Tar Custom of taking medicine in the form of pills dates far back in history. The object is to enable us to swallow easily in a condensed form disagreeable and nauseous, but very use. ful, drugs. To what vast dimension pill. taking has grown may be imagined when we say that in England alone about 2,000,000,000 (two thousand million) pills are consumed every year. In early days pills were made alowly by hand, as the demand was comparatively small. To-day they are produced with infini. tely greater rapidity by machines especially contrived for the purpose, and with greater accuracy, too, in the proportions of the various Ingredients employed."
