Cowardly shirk these questions and it may be to. inconsistencies; perhaps at times there is a cowardice that is excusable. The result of "philosophic doubt" in one of Mr. Mallone's characters will clearly show to what Mr. Mallock has exposed some of his readers who (but that it come in this guise of a novel) would happily have shaned the thorny path. It is the wilderness of pessimism into which the author must plunge some unwary rounders: "the idea of the magnitude of the Universo, and the littleness and the evanescence of man, "became my constant companion, my familiar "demon.

Life is real and earnest, as much in its subjective illusious as in its objective truths, and it is a pity that Mr. Mallock shou'd have been tempted to fore, hi this way, an appetite for caviare upon the unsuspecting general.

For my own part, regarding religion as an essential element of civilization. I have uni. formly tried to trent all religions with becoming respect, and I believe it to bo an important duty of statesmen under all circumstances to do their utmost to prevent racial anizacsities. And so, in the year 1895, at the time of the China Japan war, my soldiers had no sconor set foot on the Lisetung Peninsula than I took special pains to see that the greatest care was exercised by them, in extending protection from all harm to the Christian believers and Churches planted there by the English and French missionaries. As the present war is against Russia fessedly Christian nation--I have felt that redoubled efforts should be made that no un- worthy sentiments should be tolerated, that we should adopt a thoroughly unbiased and equitables attitude towards all, and that the whole cation should give practical effect to the policy clearly set forth in the Imperial Edict that this war las no other object than the safety of the empire and the peace of the Far East. I sincerely hope that no one will be betrayed into the error of supposing that such things us differences in race or religion bare anything whatever to do with tho present complication.
