Dr. Burroughs is the tenth bachelor among the forty-four Archbishops and Bishops, the others being the Arahishors of York and the Bishops of Truro, South wark. Oxford, London, Norwich, Swansea and.
Brecon, Salisbury, and Worcester. this is easily the highest proportion of bachelors among leading figures of the professions, as the following examples will show:

fdasions. Viscount Grey's book is of extraordi- nary historical importance and deep personal interest. Every line in it, by its frankness and sincerity, will increase the respect in which the author is held by his countrymen. **I do not know that I did well, but I did honestly," he wrote to his wife after his conversation in us with the French Ambassador, ex plaining what the attitude of England would be if France were attacked by Germany. These words are characteristic of the spirit which animated him, and explain why the Allies placed such ab-
solute confidence in him.
New light is thrown on the Agadir affair of 1011 when in his belief Ger- many really meant to make war France:
*
In the Cabinet of 1 members there is only one bachelor--the Earl of Balfour, Lord President of the Council. High Chancellor, Lords of Appeal in Of 40 senior judges, including the Lord Ordinary, and judges of the Supreme Court only three are bachelors-Lord Blanesburgh, Sic John Sankey, and Sir Henry Alfred McCardie.
Turning to the medical profession and taking the medical advisers of the King As representative, we find that of these distinguished physicians and surgeons, only one is a bachelor-Sir F. Stanley Hewett.
Had the crisis led to war, this would have come at the very season that we koow wos favoured for the purpose by. German military leaders in 1970, and that was selected for the menace to with that Power. The Russian public France in 1005, and that we believe became afraid that we meant to seize was decided by the military authorities Constantinople.
for war in 1914
One reason wby war did not come then may, his suggests, be found in the famous speech which Mr. Lloyd George made, telling the Germans we should fight if they persisted in their action against

It is expected that this machine will help to avoid the unnecessary extraction of numbers of ball decayed teeth, for by these photographs the dentist will be able to see exactly what is the matter.

DISHONOUR OF NEUTRALITY. When, the German Chanceller suggest. ed that England should leave France in the lurch and remain neutral, Lord Cirey anya
The proposal made to us meant ever lasting dishonour, if we accepted it. if Britain did remain neutral; people would expect the Government to sti- pilate terms for our neutrality. I had contemplated resignation if war came and We declined to stand by France, and I had therefore thought nothing as to making conditions for our neu trulity.
This fact that Lord Grey would hav Jeft the Government if it had deserted "France" is a political disclosure of great importance. But be states that (as was well known at the time), until the in vasion of Belgium a large party in the Cabinet was against giving any promise of help to France, and be adds that Mr. Bonar Law told him that be doubted whether the Conservative Party "would be overwhelmingly in favour of war, un- less Belgian-neutrality were invaded."
Lord Grey meets and demolishes the impudent German allegations that "France or Russia provoked the war:
France dreaded war and did all she could to avoid it. French minds were probably more preoccupied with the awful peril of war to France than with the dread of war as a general catas trepbe. The immense growth and strength of Germany had anothered all French intention to attempt vanche.
As for Bussia:
That the Tsar or Sazonof or anyone who had a decisive word in Russia was planning to provoke or to make war I do not believe
But, in Germany
The one constant organised authority was the military one; and there can be little doubt that high military opinion held that war must come and that in 1814 the time for war had come, This crisis was to be forced
to the point of war. If France aban- Joned Russia and offered to remain neutral, that was not to suffice; France was to be required to cede, ns pledges of neutrality, the two fortresses of Toul and Verdun.
