A Word to the Grumblers, A writer in the New York Times calls attention to a fact that has been lost sight of by many people who have been complain- ing about the inability of the market to rise while it is taking hack millions of securities from abroad. It in that all the divid- end and interest cheques which ased to go to the foreign owners of these securities will now be paid in America. The money which used to go to the swelling of the invisible trade balance will accumulate in the United States, forming itself a very considerable reinvestment fand to aid in the purchase of other foreign-held securities.

great presence of mind on the part of a Malay. He was fishing with a "jala" the river not far from the Sej jak and while stoop- ing down was anddenly seized by the head by a crocodile. The intended victim was, however, not of the sort who gives in with- ont a struggle, and he made his captor release him by digging at the brute's eyes with his fingers. The Malay afterwards had the wounds in his head attended to at Bejijak bospital and since then has been looking out for bis sergilant with a gun. He mys be wishes to bayar hutang-which is to say " get his own back.”
Chinese Workmen for France.
According to Japanese con- temporary, there has been a gOUT- eity of factory hands and other workmen in all European coun- tries involved in the war, which has absorbed almost all their young and strong. The French Minister AtTM Peking has jast caroladed his negotiation with the Waichiapu for per mission to engage 1,000 workmen. at Shanghai who will be sent to France to work in factories, As there could be no objection to the | employment of Chinese in indus- trial enterprises, the Obineso Government has readily given itm consent, only stipulating that no force should be used in any way and only those whose voluntarily for their services should be engaged.
