piled by the Washington Bureau of Statio tics, one of the most useful of the Ame rican Government offices. From this bureau emanates an endless streani of in- koop formation carefully prepared, to American en of business in touch with all the changing conditions of the world.

The survey in question concludes with a table which must alust hold the world's record for compression. For all the host important countrios it gives importe, ex- ports, commerce with the States, currency, revenue, debt, expenditure, area, and population.

THREE-CORNERED HATTLE.

Dealing with imports, the table shore that the United Kingdoin impurts & gro value of goods than any her coun Germany comes next, with the United States third and France fourth. As for exports, the United States take first place, very closely followed by this country, and Germany comes third. This meaning of these facts is that the trade supremacy of the world is being fought for by these tholy countries, the United States being the oren one of the three whose exports are greater than the imports.

These countries are the best customers of each other. The United States, how- over,, get the best of the deal all round, seiling us almost four times' as much as they buy from us.

They also sell to Germany about twicó as much as Germany sell them.

If the trade and influence of n country, depended on its population this table makes it evident that Chim ought to sway the world. There are 100.000,000 people in

If the British Empire be taken as a whole it leads the way easily with an area of al- most twelve million square miles. This would have been a fairer computation, as the whole of the Russian dominiona are în-· cluded under Russia.

Taking the year 1901 as a basis, the richest countries aro given in the following order :-Russia, Franco, the United States, the United Kingdom, and

Germany. France has a heavier debt than any ober country, and Russia comes second in this respect.

Placing everything bris of popula tion, Holland imports more for each head of population than any other country. Holland also exports more per head. Aus- tralia has a heavier dobt per head than any other country, but also a greater revenue- per head.

For each person in the country Australia has most gold, Spain most silver, and Ar- gentina most paper money. France has more money-gold, silver, and paper taken together-per head than any other country. -Daily Express":

WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO-DAY 7

We shall do so much in the years to come,

But what have wo done to-day! We shall give our gold in a princely sum,

But what did we give to-day? We shall lift the heart and dry the tear, We shall plant a hope in the place of fear, We shall plant the words of love and cheer,

But what did wo speak to-day?

We shall be so kind in the after-while,

But what have we been to-day ? We shall bring to each lonely life a smile,

But what have we brought to-day? We shall give to truth a grander birth, And to steadfast faith a deeper worth, We shall feed the hungering souls of earth,

But whom have wo fed to-day?

We shall reap such joys in the by-and-by,

But what have wo sown to-day We shall build us mansions in the sky,

But what have we built to-day! Tis sweet in idle dream to bask, But here and now do we do our task? Yes, this is the thing our souls must ask,

What have wo duneto-day? -Nixon Waterman,

ANECDOTES OF THE CLERGY.

A Cornish clergyman, having allowed his church to get into a state of disrepair, was ordered to store it. He commenced with the sounding-board over the pulpit, on completion of which he took his gardener into the church in order to test it. HaAY- ing vlaced the man in a remote corner the parson mounted the rostrum and read the lesson for the day. How does that sound, James?' 'Sounds very well, maister: vered every word,' replied the gardener. Now, James, you change places with mo and say something,' Nothing loth, James ascended the pulpit stairs, and this is what ho said: 'Haven't had any wages for a month. How does that sound, maister?' Here is the latest method of taking leave of a valued pastor. A Wesleyan ministor in Cornwall was taking leave of an old lady of his congregation on the expiration of his three years' residence. Well, good-bye, Mra A.' 'Good-bye, sir,' said the old lady; the Lord never takes a good thing away without sending a better in its place!!

Cornish local preachers sometimes give their opponents powerful homethrusts. On one occasion a local brother WKS dealing with the alleged necessity for an educated priesthood' upon which the clergy of the Established Church were always insisting. He naturally did not recognise this necessity, and proceeded to illustrate his point by a reference to the Apostle Peter and Paul.

Was St. Peter 'No,' an eddicated man?' he asked,

said he; 'ho was a poor fisherman. But what happened when he preached? Why, thousands was converted. Then there was St. Paul; now he was cddicated, for we are told that he sat at the feet of the great Gamaliel But what happened when he preached? Why, a young man in the gallery wont to sleep, and tumbled 'down and broke his neck!!

There is a parish in Cornwall called St. Eval. A young stud nt was up before Canon X, to undergo an examination prior to ordination When the business was over, the Canon asked where the young man was

* To Cornwall, sir, going after ordination. replied he. Oh, indeed I know Cornwall very well. What parish are you going to?

To St. Eval (commonly pronounced Sundoval), sir,' replied the incipient parson. Dear mo!" said the puzzled and slightly shocked divine; I knew that Cornwall was County where there were many saints, but

I never knew that they had canonised him-Sir Richard Taugye in Chambers s Journal.

PURITIES IN THE BLOOD.--' We have scén host of lotters from people who have received grebenefit from the use of Clarke's Blood Minre. It cannot be too highly estimated, for it cleanses and clears the blood from all im

purities.

For Scrofuls, Scurvy, Eczema, Bad Legs, Skin and Blood Diseases, Pimples and Sores of all kinds, its effects are marvellous. Thousands of wonderful cures have been affected by it.

Hongkong Tides.

The tide table given below has been compiled at the Nautical Almanac Office in London from the result of the analysis of observations taken. by means of an au- tomatic tide-recording machine in the Wa ter Police Basin at Tsim Sha Tsui during

the years 1887-8-9.

The zero of the table corresponds with the zero of the soundings in the Admiralty Charts which has been found to be 4 feet 3 inches below mean sea level.

To obtain the depth of water on the tide gauge at the Victoria Naval Yard add 3 feet 4 inches, and on the gauge at Lamont Dock, Aberdeen, add 10 feet 6 inches to the height given in the table.
