South China Morning Post. "Vienna's Sore Pilght." The news cabled from Venice last week stating that the condi- tione in the Austrian capital have become intolerable is not at all surprising. Indeed, for some time it has been known that disease in several forms, particularly cholera and typhoid, had asserted ils, presenca in the eastern war theatre, and that it should become a menace to Vienna is only to be expected since the city has be come a haven of refuge for crowds of destituto refugees of a clasa whres ideas of hygiene are of the crudest description. It is too much to hope that disease has not manifested its prosecco in the ranks of those who are ongega ed in the fighting." There never has been a war yet in which

One of the must simple, direct, and striking appeals which have been addressed to the manhood of the British Empire during the present war is the last message.of. the late Field Marshal Esrl Rob. erts to his follow-acustrymen... Originally contributed to the columns of the Hilbert Journal, it has recently been reprinted for wider circulation in pamphlet form, and, coming as it does from cne who, after long and signal. services to the State as a soldier, consecrated the closing rears of a orowded life to an effort to roUS the country be loved no wall to a sense of the dangers that his prescience foresaw, it will serve ae a clarion-call to duty to Britons, throughout the world. As might | be expected, the grand old pat- riot, who never spared himself when Britain's welfare was at stake, is no advocate of half- hearted measures in this hour of peril. "There is," he declares, but one duty for the British citizen at the present time-men and women, young and old, rich and poor. All alike must placa

titanic struggle in a consummation devoutly to be wished to learn the opinions of those who may be sup- posed to be best able to don the mantle of the prophet. The best qualified expert to incline to the short form theory is General Berthant, Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the French Army, who thinks that”” the war will come to an end in another three months, and then not by force of arma, bat by force of hunger, together with exhaustion of other means of carrying on the war. While the Paris Gaulois given prominence to this extremely optimistic estimate, the Kochnische Zeitung seams to destroy its valua by publishing detailed examina- tion of the resouross of the Gar man and Austrian Empires, both in money," provisions, and men, which concludes by showing that the Dual Alliance can throw into. the field an entirely fresh army of no less than 18,000,000.
