of China, for with all his faults and casuistry ho is the only man of approved mettle that the pre- sont crisis has produced. For the sake of Ulinn it would be woll if the Cantonoso could for a momont lay aside their distrast and dislikó and endeavour to fix up a working compromise with Yoan Shih-kai. The old, ordor has passed away completely, of that thoro can be no doubt to-lay and the power of the Ching dynasty. has vanished away as swiftly and as inovitably as alsnow-flake dissolves and disappears when it i falls upon the bosom of the lake... We therefore adhere to the opinion oxpressed a month ago that tho soonor Yuan Shih-kai and Sun Yat-sen met in friendly, personal conference the botter, for the conor thon will an oxit.Be found from the present hopeless muddle. Disaster must follow if those. conflicting, and disintegrating intorosts are pursued much longer.

An Increasing Burden. The naval oxpenditure of the eight principal aanval Powers of the world was very nearly double in 1911 what it was in 1000! The total for those eight Powers the United Kingdom, the Unite ed States, Japan, Franco, Russia, Germany Italy, and Austria- Hungary-now amounts, in round figuros, to £140,000,000 sterling per annum, while the cost of the world's brmies amounts to about twice that sum, and the burden is constantly growing heavier. In overy progressive country Go- vernments are making demande for increased armament. In England not only havo we beonen- Prmously strengthing our fleet but we have lind Fiold-Marahll Lord. Roberts proclaiming up and down the country the need of a larger army; in thio United States we live recently had the Socre- tary, of War declaring that the American army is little more than groups of local constabulary in- stead of a national organisation effective for serious notive service,”

Wherever we turn we find the same agitation going ou, and while no nation is prepared to rafuso money for its adequate dofence, the wonder grows how long the expensive gaine is going to continue.

is a hundred years since he first broathed in life at Lamport in Hampshire, and when he died over 58 years later at Gaðshill the world lost one of its most fruitfal goniases. In the beautiful words of one of the millions of mourzers, "the heart of England stood still and its laughter crept dismayed. into the caves of silence, Dickens spent a bitter childhood, the story, of which he left us in. "David Copperfield," and it was the un- happiness of his early days whichng: engendered that overflowing sym-- pathy for the unfortunate young which is reflected in so many of his novels. The newspaper man has an especial affection for him, for he was one himself, and it was his experience as a reporter which provided the material for some of3 [44 his most memorable soones.
