CONFIDENCE sald Lord Chatham, "is a plant of slow- growth." People believe in things that they see, and in a broad sense they are right (What is sometimes called blind faith is not faith at all.

Is it in harmony with the truths of modern science, and has it a record above suspicion?

I have seen most of the fighting in Egypt and the Soudan between the years 1883 and 1898. Indifferent as was the, shooting of our soldiers in those days, it was their great superiority in markmanship over that of the enemy that won us so many victories with but a handful of troops. We ought to have been eaten, up or driven into the sea more than

tifal, and their, shooting, was too good, as a rale, for Erer Boar. The pipers never stay- ed when they came upon the scene. I have gone into the skirmish line, with these, and other Regulars and. Irregulars, and seen the Boers quickly driven from the field, and Joined in ding-dong, ride and shoot, shoot and many of the Boers.
