'CHARLEY'S AUNT, This most successful and universally popular comedy of modern times, which has already passed its seven thousandth representation in various parts of the world, was staged by the Pollards at the Theatre Royal last evening, There was a well-filled house, and everyone appeared to thoroughly enjoy the merry play.

I'm Charley's nunt from Brazil, where the nùis come from, is such a catch-phrase among theatre- goers that it would be strange to find a poor house to welcome Hawtree's creation. It has filled' London theatres and drawn big crowds in front of the American singe, where the great success which attended its production in the English, capital, was duplicated as soon as it was put on. In the production last evening Mr. Nable, as Lord Fancourt Badderley, was, of course, the centre and the mainspring of the bubbling humour of the farce. It is a 1őle.

Indian religion; but its characteristic is not, as many Europeans suppose, a trifling realism, however beautiful, but a grand interpretation of the longing desire of Buddahhood to save others and not itself. For ideals Japan has depended upon India.

PROFESSOR Starr, of Chicago University, asserts that the American people are fast developing into Indians. During his investiga- tions, the professor'examined the descendants of a small colony' of Germans who settled in Pennsylvania over a hundred years ago. He found that the fourth and fifth generations bad developed India characteristics, such as black hair and eyes and darker coloured skin. Pro- fessor Starr says: "These variations in phy sical appearance affect persons of other nationalities who have settled in the United States. They are due to climatic influences

and environment."

CAPTAIN Fullerton, I.M.S., states that from his observations in Allahabad; "Disinfection with has been iried in Allahabad City for two years and has been systematically and successfully carried out. We have not been able to stamp out the plague, but its ravages have been un- doubtedly checked. Its reappearance in dis infected blocks has been almost invariably preventive action may last it is impossible to due to imported cases. How long this state; but my opinion, at the end of two years' work in the city, is that disinfection by this method is preventive to a large extent, and that results attending it commend it to the public opinion,"

Since that time nothing has been done to it, and it can easily be imagined that the ravages of wind and weather for 300 years are palpably evident. Yet there is something majestic even in the Juins, and a sight of the wall, as it crawls up the hill sides, most wonderfully impresses the imagination."
