After the toast of 'Queen Alexandro, the Prince and Princess of Wales, and the other Members of the Royal Family, Sir Albert Rollit, M.P., proposed The Emperor of Japan.' The Emperor, he said, was the representative of the oldest dyunsty in the world, and his reign had been of unparalleled progress and prosperity. We, in England, were proud of Japan as our friend and ally. In all their reforma the Japanese had made marked advances, and especially in comtereo, which had -quadrupled during the last 15 years. If the propos ed Japanese exhibition in this country took place we should do all in our power to make it a success. The tenst of Thự Japan Society' was submitted by Mr. C. Kadone, and responded to by Mr. Diésy and Mr. Gaji Ukit. Other toasts followed.

THE BRIGHTEST LIGHT IN THE
A
WORLD.
LONDON Electrician exhibited the other day a new form of arc lamp which gives a light, beside which the most brilliant electric light ever previously seen looks like a smoky lantern. This extraor dinary light is produced by electrifying tho vapours of Mercury. Without the aid of a particle of Mercury a still Brighter Light has, by Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people, been brought into thousands of homes. All over the country they have restored the light of health to tired eyes, the rosa-pink of beauty into pale chooks. Mies Bentley. the landlord's daughter at thes Railway inn, Oldbury, Birmingham, England, said these pills, three years ago, brought light into her life which she feared had gone for ever. I was in such a term. blo state,' said she, through that ever- provalent malady, anemia, that I could not oven dress my hair. I was just like death; I used people arned round to look at me. to fall down fainting in the road. I could not digest food-in fact, I had no appetite for it. De Williams' pink pills quite cured me, and I have remained well, cating freely and working with ease. Undoubtedy these pills saved my life."
Dr WILLIAMS' Pink Pills can be had of most European chemists and drug stores.

Of Captain Percy Scott it is unnecessary to say anything. Everybody knows that to him more than to any living Englishman is due the silent revolution that is coming over the Flest, and that when the gunnery efficiency of the Fleet has been doubled it is to Captain Percy Scott that we shall owe the fact. We owe nothing to the Admiralty. When Sir Edward Seyinour was Com mander-in-Chief in China he promised a week's extra paying-off lence to the best ship in the squadron. The Terrible was the best in the squadron, but the Terrible did not get a week's leave for good shooting. It was stopped by the Admiralty.
Yet Mr Arnold Forster and Lord Solvery carefully perused in the Far East, borne have the hardihind to say that tho Admiralty are doing all they can to 'en courage' straight shooting.
