The Prime Minister, in July, 1910, said, "The Government would be false to their sacred trust if they did not maintain an naple navy with a margin of security, for that in the only as* .. surance for a nation like Grent Britain." And so it is as it should·· have been in the days of Raleigh and as it was made in the days of Nelson. But a pace has been set by our rivals. The premium is a heavy one and becomes bigger as yaar succeeds year. Covetous hands must be kept off our herit age and for this reason it ia little marvelled that the colonies, which owa so much to the British Navy' and the Motherland, are proud to lend a helping hand. We are se« sured that nothing threatens at the moment, that there is no emergency nor immediate danger, but who can tell how long the dogs of war may be kept in leash? The watchword is Be propared."

: Chinese Official Notifications,
A certain mild sensation has resently been caused by the publication in the "Official Gazette at Peking of the. English toxt of some marine re- gulations of the United States. Why these particular regulations should have been selected for the honour does not appear; it might be suggested that it would have been much more useful to publish, cays, the text of last year's Opium Agreement, but that is by the way. Amid the surprise that
this epoch-making innovation has caused in all the hundreds of years of its existence no English document had ever been reproduo ed in the "Peking Gazette," of which the presont "Official Gazette" in the modern represen- tative-the absurdity of the idea seems to have escaped notice. Whatever reason is there for a Chiness State journal to print its intelligence in English ?unless, perhaps, it is intended that in course of time. English shall be the official language of China. It my be remarked in passing that. occasional attempt at English were not wanting in the "Peking Guzette of the good old days. When foreign relations became & matter calling for serious attention and Treaties were the order of the day, it was found difficult to reproduce. in' idrograplis the uncivilized titles of the barbarisna: "King" and "Emperor" were more or less feasible, but the translation of an unintelligible word like "Pre sident" best the pundits of the Hanlin, so it was boldy trans- literated "Po-li-si-t'ien-te." And there was once printed in the "Peking Gazette” a memorial by a high official on the action of the British representatives, wherein he stated thit they had enteron "po-la-te-san te," which was his way of selling "protest."

Britain's Imperial Navy. No nation need be alarmed at the marvellous development of the British Empire's Navy. It is not intended and will never be ased but in a good cause., Britons know only too well what the post of espansion means; and the ideas propounded by the greatest thinkers of the day as to what a modern war between two or mörə wealthy nations will mean are not likely to be lost sight of. War to-day between such nations as referred to would be nothing more
nor less than an upreot ing of the fruits of hundreds. of years of patient industry and would inevitably prove as costly to the victors as to the vanquished, True happiness for nations as for individuals can alone be found along the primrose
