"The; decision of the Government, so far as the Admiralty was concerned, was based on general knowledge of the position and capabilities of the place for the purpose for which it was required." Mr. Pretyman, Civil Lord of the Admiralty, subsequently imparted to the House the reassuring information that Weihaiwci was. to be a summer sanatorium for the fleet and that the climate was even better than that of Japan?

Emperor of China agreed to lease to his Majesty's Government "Weihaiwej, in the province of Shantung, and the adjacent waters for so long a period as Port Arthur shall remain in the occupation of Russia." The occupation of Port Arthur by Russia [32 has long been at an end, and unless, as is reported to be the case, sonic new arrangement has been entered into, by the British Government with China, our occupa tion of Weihai, should have come to an end as well.

says Dun's Review. The practical difficulties in the way of carrying out such a plan do not appear to be serious, nor is it probable that action by congresses, parliaments or other legislative bodies will be required to put it into operation. A mutual agreement between the different post-office departments will suffice, it is believed, to at least give such a plan a trial The advantages of an interentional stamp to business men engaged in foreign trade are so numerous and so great as hardly to require enumeration. As a medium for prepaying postage for reply in cases where it is undesir able to request the recipient of a letter to pay for such reply himself, as a means for making triding remittances, and in a number of other ways, such a stamp would be useful. Every business man in any part of the world, who feels that this plan will benefit him, urges the American journal, should induce his local chamber of commerce or hoard of trade to urge its endorsement upon the post-office officials of his country.

THE ETHICS OF THE WHITE MAN,
Perhaps people like being cheated; it gives them a little pleasurable excrement. Whether that explains it or not, it is certain that the dishonest art dealer is the reply to the dis honest purchaser of years ago. Just as the upon the unsuspecting savage, unconsciously unscrupulous trader paimed off worthless goods teaching him the ethics of the white man in a are, in the third and fourth generation, being themselves exploited. The book-boxes on the Seine are a living example. * Years ago it was possible to obtain a real bargain there. The bookworm, greedy, as a miser for literary treasure, swooped upon the priceless first edi tion and bore it away for a few pence. The news of these purchases was spread abroad and the bookseller became exceeding wary. To- day his caution is humorously exaggerated. You have merely to look a little interestedly at a well-worn tone and the reverend merchant approaches you and whispers a figure in your car which is twelve times its worth.

New Zealand, Sir Archibald Geikle, the famous geo- logist, wrote (Contemporary Review); "It has crease in the thickness of the cool outer crust been plausibly suggested that the gradual in of the earth has offered continually augmenting terior, and hence that earthquakes and volca nic eruptions ought now to be less constant, but mure violent, than in the olden times. The earth has been compared to a pot of porridge, which, after thorough boiling, has been taken off the fire. During the progress of boiling the escape of steam keeps the porridge in constant ebullition. But when cooling sets in and feads

Asthe skin thickens, the resistance it offers pro portionately increases; the steam puffs become fewer, but larger; and the last spunts of porrid ge ejected are sometimes bigger and are thrown out further than any that preceded them.”
