Such in brief are ejaculations of the two great schools of thought if such they may be called, upon the occasions when German enterprise startles a world that is arming to the teeth and hoping for peace. Hul whichever of these animadversions may have the greater percentage of truth, it is certain that the recent declarations of the policy of the Kaiser in respect to further extensions of the German army, taken in conjunction with France's wave of military enthusiasm, the war preparations of Austria and Russia, all tend to make the money markets of the world uneasy, and consequently the utterances of the European warlord have a very real significance to us by the banks of the Fraser. Por the moment interest in the sphere of armaments has changed from the sea and the air to the land, but the prospect of a speeding-up in the race of military expenditures between Germany and France is not reassuring. Here again money talks, but so do men and while France is the wealthier of the two nations, the population of Germany is double that of France. It, had been hoped that with the settlement of the Balkan trouble within guessing distance the world, outside the cauldron of Mexico, would be free from thc boom of guns, and that consequently the purse strings of the nations of the old world would again be loosened for the de- pment of the new. But today the Balkan states appear to be fighting as merrily as ever and once more the shadow of that Armageddon which has long beea prophesied looms upon the horizon of 1913. It may pass and it may not. In the latter eventuality we in Canada will have much to suffer, not only in things material but in that pride of people who are scarcely id into a nation. For we have not taken our place in line with the other daughter nations of the British Isles in respect to national defence, a course of action which. under present conditions, is as necessary to the right progress of a young nation as is a knowledge of how to defend himself to a growing youth been carried, H Adrlanople falls, It wlll probably '���ill through starvation, n seems, in deed, to be i> Question of tood and ammunition In every ins ance, and if ability in drive t *i<-'; the enemy, The case ot Port Arthur is another n iiniei The Japanese routed tbi Russians in the open country of Man ohurla; bul they only finally captur , * ii the fortified Porl Ar bur slter the miat daring and costly opi rations, T.eu thon, ii was believed that Port| \rthitr need nol have surrendered that, if there had been nny Imre ot r, Hi f.

The Winter Palace dn | (dared war on the Alnxandroff palule. 'Iho Winter palace ls a stucco red ! monstronslty al TsurHkoe Selo, where Nicholas dwells. The pair have long been foes. Tbe | \Wlnter pallida Is angry wllh the Alex- hndroff palace for enticing uwuy lit tit* Nicholas on a cold winter morning ot 11)05, And, since then, frlglu'cui-l Utile Nicholas bus not spent five nights In the Winter palace. Naturally lhe red stunCd""walls are turning green wllb Jealously. And round this Jealousy spins a rnnilr tale of the kind lo wblch only Holy Huh slims yield. In llie quarrel between the litiinl male red Btucco and the rococo stuc co, most human interests tire at slake They are the Interests of Nlvolmlus ll.'S minister.i, secretaries. leelievi charwomen and prlvute und private domestic robbers. For tight years past ministers have been welling tbat Ihey musl travel to tedious Tsarkoe Selo when tliey want to see tbelr lord; and the secretaries, charwomen, thieves, and other adherents of the Winter palace bave yawned with tedium, but mainly because the pickings of an empty pal uco are net worth living fur.. Moreover many lackeys, charwomen and private domestic robbers have b on dismissed! and given half their salaries as pensions, though they formerly made tbrlcu their salaries In graft. And for such reasons power fill Interests have been aiming at drag giug little Nicholas from bis Tsarko finally, on top of these tragedies, ll leaked out that the Winter palace Inn a malignant ghost, ���. ^ The First Spirit.' Tbls ghoat bears thn name of "Per ��� vy Iliikh," which meanb "The first Spirit." Nobody bud ever seen ll I Until tbe Tsnr decided to return to , tho Winter palace; und until olbei pnrsops bad apparently decided thai lie Bhould not return.

Some time last December, when the Festival Cl Orders was held lu tlie winter palace, a Petersburg paper announced that little Nicholas was com lug home. ihe newspaper did not mention bis name that, In free Russia, Ib sinful, but It used the harmonious ttbrase, "Vulsokopostaviennlyus la sa highly stationed personalities and everyone understood.

Several times of lale. the minister' hn�� gone, hv arrangement, to Taarkot I Seio with his weekly report, but ho i found little Nicholas spirited nwny j A compact was made to keen Nichola I where he was. It was resolved th" the Winter palace should sittllenU oeua to be cosy and safe, and lha j stand lu I It should be dangerous and damp ! and has | n''d there was set In movement all those strings of Intrigue and rornip I tion which ate used to settle everv pri blem that ls ever raised In Holy Russia, The tale of the Winter palace's quarrel with the Tsarkoe SMi- palace I he* now got all round St. Petersburg ; 1'hree days the examiners examined Today satirical St. Peteraburgers the five hundred rooms. When they, when they are criticising inifiivorabh got to the five-hundredth they reports M apartment or hotel, use Ihe n-rrc! to Tsarkoe Selo that the Winter pal- B*<"-; "'s haunted by Pervy Dokh.' ace was In first rate order, and that I Tll,> frivolous "I'etersburc-.ki Ms tok" published an account nf the rlios about five weeks' minor operations would make it ready for tbe Tsar. Forbidden to Talk, lt was boluved that Nicholas, when ho came to Petersburg to watch the waters blessed on January 19, would take up residence and have a brilliant lynching season, which would end only when '''"':'' '" he left lu early summer for Bcaaide 1'oterhof. This atory wus made more probable by an official warning to the newspu pera that tbey must not write aboil' tbo return to Petersburg at all. It is a rule that when newspapers are i. ri>.ud,-a to dismiss Nicholas1 move ments. then something is on foot So lhal everyone knew that, after ���light years' absence Russia's Tsar would return; and loyal citizens began to thing of laying In stocks" of flags, Ixiiuti.i and other things which traditionally murk every Imperial pro- gresa. Next descended on the red stucco palace a host of painters, plasterers carpenters, and locksmiths. The big canvas sheet which for four years has myseriously decked the east skle of tho Hermitage gallery was without saying that it had fe'led th plan of Nicholas to leave Tsarkoe-"!, Perhaps it has not foiled It. Th' Winter palace clique Is not eai'lv d fea-ed. and it is quite capable of flood, fire, disease, an' tranquil Tsarkoe Selo. s the triumphant rococo Alezandrof palace Is not yet quite easy In It: mind.

And so ll has turned out I A little while ago we thought tbls I style of dressing hopelessly de mode and vulgar, but there was n time wbeu we were attached to It and delighted in the changes it allowed us to ', ring on n modest wardrobe. With one good black satin skirt and half It dozen blouses any woman could be well and economically dressed, and the Idea was good enough until we ran It to death mul got thoroughly sick of It.

While people were discussing thla mystery, they heard that the architect Rlelcholf hud cut bis throat. Thai news could not be kept out of thc newspapers. And ether facts have since leaked out. It appears that, from the moment tbe report was presented thai lhe Winter palace was fit for habitation, everything that happen rd went to prove that it wiis not fit. I'utiatin umi Rletchkoff had hope leHsiy misjudged the situation. As ii remit, nearly (100,000 was laid oul In vain before Nicholas II. dOOlded that be could not possibly come. As thrifty Nicholas hales to spend money without <ir even with cans", he Rave a nasty rebuke to the Innocent Rletchkoff; and the Innocent Wetcb* keff would nol survive it. The fact was that the Winter pul- nee. after It's eight years' sleep, my- terioiisly woke up. And in a queer way. Everything began to go wrong. Within a week of It becoming known that Nicholas would return, u six-foot deep flood wuh discovered In the cellars of the palace bridge corner, near which Nicholas was lo reside. The Neva, said Ihe fearful ones, hnd again tot through the foundations. Hut whMl a surveyor had examined the cellars he found that the wnler had not come from the Neva, but from u lap that had culpably left open for nearly a week. Negligence, said everyone, nnd the FTvanls responsible, were rebuked. Things looked had for Nicholas' return, fer within a week, the dump rose Into the walls of his destined rttidv. Evidently some Inscrutable force was working to prevent the yearned for return to the Winter pal ace. Other Incidents. After ihls followed other Incidents, rirst came it minor fire.

The Pope has dl- 'reeled that a series of Celebrations shull be held 111 Rome this month, and the following months of the present year, to commemorate the sixteen- hundredth anniversary of the promulgation of the Edict of Milan, which the Holy See regards as one of the great events In the history of Christianity. This famous Edict was Issued by the Emperors t'onstaiitlne und Llci- Hus, Murch, 313, on the occasion when t'onstaiitlne si tight to cement hiB political alliance with bis Imperial colleague by marrying his half-sister, Constantla, the friend and correspondent of the learned BuBeblUB, to the savage Harlan soldli r. The friendship of the two sovereigns endured but a few months. Wnr broke out between them in 314, and the struggle ended ln the execution, or the murder, of LlclnlUB at Salonika in 320. | lt ls not, however, to its effect upon ' the relations of the rival competitors for the empire that the meeting at Milan owes its consequence In the an- Inals of Latin Christianity.

J. C. GWYNN, District Registrar of Titles Land Registry Office, New Westminster, B.C., February 2Sth, 1913. London, March 10. -In the present critical situation of European politics tho diplomats of France, Britain, Russia and Germany are ull eagerly watching each other to see who shall take the first step. France's spirited response to the proposal of military aggrandisement by Germany haa done more towards ���ensuring peace today and war tomorrow than any diplomatic move In living recollection. On the other hand, (lerinany's*iiiio explanation as to the causes of her enormous outlay and increase of a "peace" army has deceived nobody. A British diplomat now home on a furlough, discussing the electric current imparted to tho situation hy the accession of M. Polncare to the French presidency, says: "It Is admitted by all acquainted with the currents of diplomacy In Europe that the coming of Polncare put more electricity into the Franco- German situation than has been there in many years. The appointment of Delcasse, an avowed partisan of the policy of revenge, as ambassador to St. Petersburg constituted nothing less than a direct challenge to Germany, the answer to which, it Is noteworthy, has not yet been given and which when It comes, may stagger the world with Its suddenness. Lull Before Storm? "Either," said the diplomat who holds a secretarial rank in the service, "Germany judges that in view of the momentous policy foreshadowed hy Delcasse's appointment, discretion is at this moment her widest policy, or alternatively, Germany may simply be observing a political silence while finally giving a careful look to her offensive and defensive equip ment. That Germany, which in 11106 insisted ou the dismissal of Delcasse as a result of the Moroccan embrogllo, giving France an alternative in war, should now quietly eat humble pie in the face of this virtual defy from the new head of the French republic, is at the present moment, a matter of undisguised amazement to all the chancellories of the world. "Even by itself It would have been sufficient to arouse the ever-slumbering Francophobln of the Germans, but coining as it did, on the announcement that something like $100,000,000 was lo be spent In strengthening the French land forces, the policy of Polnoare is susceptible of only one explanation -namely, that whereas a certain measure of prudent passivity characterized the recent French Government the present head of the republic means, at least, to try to reconquer for France some of her lost prestige in the concert of the powers, as well as to break the political power of Berlin in Europe, objects whose accomplishment must involve a resort to arms. "The situation," he continued, "remains at present principally dependent on Germany's action "Will the Berlin wnr party let pass forever their undoubted chance to force the kaiser Into war? If Germany postpones the occasion till later It will be only to find a French army far better prepared to meet her th>n the present French army Is. Now Is Time. "Germany, If she acts soon, will also he certainly able to count on half of Austria and Italy as against any move by the Russians toward protecting their slow brethren In the Balkans, a certainty which bicomes continually j weaker as the old kaiser of Austria be-; comes older and the victorious Balkans continue to loom on the horizon as a more practicable possibility 'Indeed," continued the diplomat,! "never within the past ten years, not I even during the Dreyfus and Moroccan crises, has a Franco-German war been nearer In sight. Germany builds confidently on two reasons- -namely, first, that England's policy with regard to the French amounts merely to a determination to use the French army and navy should events ever force that necessity; second, that Kngland Is determined to be no party to any triple alliance which would involve her, should one of the constituent parties otlnr than herself Le at- tackul. In other words, Germany feels Ihat Britain's ri gard for France is essentially selfish and that any upheaval Involving France ns a principal will find Albion as perfidious as ever." AN EMPRESS II A TEMPER. Eugenie's Dramatic Deicent Upon tht CaLinct Council. In Frederic Loiiee'j "Women oi the Seconil Empire'.' the author tells n sentjf onal ..tory ol Empress Eugenie of . lance. It concerns a pressing political matter, ono <d church nml ���state. Because the empress felt strongly on it the emperor (eared lest sll" should endeavor to influence the deliberatio of llie cabinet coiihcil by appearing In person. Accordingly he gave orders that the meeting should he kept secret from her. M fcollos snys: "Hut the matter so carefully concetled was already known to her, nnd, acting on the first impulse of her fury Spanish temperament, lioiling over with anger, she flew rather ban walked to the council chamber. A sentry had been placed at the door with orders to allow ni one to pass. He opposed tlie entrance ni the ImpetUOUl sovereign. " 'I wish to enter. Stand buck!' she crie.l angrily, Finding himself in a norril lo quandary between the order.; he bad received ami his four oi burling his empress, the guardsman, between his gallant./ to her se.\ and liis fidelity to thc word oi command, .-ll at the feet ol Ell- genie with ��� i bayonet laid across the doorway. " 'Vour Majesty.' he said, 'no one may pass, by order of the emperor.' " 'We shall see,' replii-d Eugenie, and without more ado she leaped over the sentry's bayonet, burst open the door nnd entered tlie Council chamber with the violence of a whirlwind. The emperor wns presidio -. grnvi ar.,1 Imperturbable, he alone having hit head covered In the presence ot his respectful and attentive ministers. "But the sovereign failed to Impose rcipeot on his angry wife, who saw in him only thc man and the husband, Going stniiL-lit up to him. with a backhanded blow slie knocked ofl hi; hat, then, without a word, withdrew as sh- Imd entered leaving llie ministers dumb w ith surprise and consternation." '8 $CMJT3 What Is a Gentleman? The Chief Scout bas Ihe following to say cn "What Is a Gentleman?" "Many people are Inclined to think that the word 'gentleman' means a man who was born rich, and that a boy brought up at expensive bcIiooIb and colleges must, therefore, be a gentleman when he bus grown up. But this does not always follow. "A fellow who is lucky enough to hnve been brought up ln that way has certainly bettor chances of being a gentleman than many a poor boy has, but at the same time a poor boy can be just as good a gentleman as a rich one. ' "A gentleman Is what the word says; he is a man, but a gentle man, I not n rough, bullying, coarse cus- I tomer, but a fellow wbo, thougli big laud strong, can he kind and chivalrous and helpful lo other people. "Au good a sample as any of a ;'gentleman' Is the London policeman lie is al all times courteous and help j ful to others, even to the extent of be- | Ing ready to risk his life at any moment to save people In ciibos of accidents, or to protect them against rough handling, and be treats rich and poor, old and young, with equal attention nnd patience, and good humor." The Scout. EDUCATING PEOPLE BY AID OF MOVIES Bird Tribunal!. Ravens, starlings nni crow? nre believed lo bold courts ol justice to mete oot punishment In offenders. Sometimes they asaenili! ��� in gp'st numbers, as if thoy would give Croat dignity to thc occasion. The trial sometimes apparently endures for many days. Some Ulrda sit nt the oonclsve with lowered heads, some tn'rely cock their bonis cn t branches and look crave, whi'.e others are most garrulous nnd fill the ii..- with t'ieir complaints. Naturalist, studying those strange proceedings have seen an apparently selected number of birds fall upon one or more ol their number���ai the cleise of the "I ini"���and put Ihem to death, alt ��r which they dispersed in orderly fashion and went hack quietly to th"ir nests.

This savnge creature reacbes a length of thirty to forty feel and is fully ns large and even more formidable than are the true man citing sharks. Roman Senate. The Roman senate was a judicial and legislative body and for several centur.es numbered .'100 men, carefully selected Iroin tlie patricians. The majority oi votes decided a question, and the order in which the senators spoke and voted was determined by their rank. Their decisions, called senatus consu'.ta, were the supreme low of the repulilio, (nun which, of course, there was i ii appeal. After the establish- merit of the empire the character ol the senate was greatly lowered, snd at bust it liecamo simply the *Uki1 of the emperor, to do his bidding regardless ol the consequences.

The Hoy Scouts of America In La Pas, Bolivia, are probably the highest boy scouts In the world. They live In a place 12,600 feet above the i**i level. "If there are troops at a higher altitude," writes ('. A. Irle, the scout master, "please let us know where they are." Because of the altitude the scouting In Bolivia is carried on under entirely different conditions than In almost any part of the world. Concerning this work. Scout Master Irle writes: "We have some advantages and some disadvantages. The mountains are near us and we find hills of 2,000 and 3,000 feet all around us. We have taken several hikes to the hills and one trip to the mountains. You must remember that at this altitude the air is much lighter than at sea level and one halts oftener on a climb than In the United States. Lack cf Fuel. "Our biggest hindrance to a good time on hikes and camping trips here is tbe lack of fuel. We have no trees except a few grown in the yards. The ground is nearly barren except for some tough grasses and cactus plants This lack of good fuel makes il hard lo do any cooking. We have very little use for a hatchet. We have to do what cooking we do over grass and weeds that we can gather. Sometimes we have jolly times with our fires, especially after damp weather. After we get them going they take a lot of coaxing and blowing. Again our rare atmosphere has to be reckoned wtth, for it does not contain very much oxygi n. and as you know oxygen is what makes the fire burn. We also are denied the pleasure of the evening camp fire. Silent Pleasure. "You boys all know the silent pleasure of a bonfire nnd what it is to camp life, in fact, it has been called the 'Heart of the Camp.' Well, unless we are fortunate enough to camp where we can gather a big pile of weeds and grass, we have to omit that pleasure. "Anot(ier thing fhat you boys have that we\lo not. is swimming. There are a feV ponds that we have run across but. the water in the rivers, ponds and lakes Is too cold to go swimming in. The water Is so cqld at this altitude that it Is said that the Indians that live around Lake Tltica- ca never havo heen known to learn to swim. Although we have the sun over head at noon, yet it does not succeed in wanning our waters enough to encourage swimming." New Zealand. In Now Zealand, a small boy in a oanoe got into danger. A gale was blowing an da big sea was running, lie was being carried seaward, when Scout Alan Fisher, Christchurch I Troop, raw him from the shore. , Quickly he got three other boys together; they launched a boat and i pushed oul to ilu- rescue, Thoy reached the canoe, got the boy ! into their own boat and brought him IBhore, but only after a heroic fight wltb sea and storm that lasted for | mere than two hours. Brave as they all were, the honor goi s to the sooiit I who led them, for he was a cripple; im faced the dangi rs of the sea with the knowledge (hat If the boat was swamped the ethers might swim, but for him there was no chance of rescue, lie wns another to whom the modal was given. Scout Douglas Smilh, aged four- ! teen, of the 4th Baling Troop, was un dressing to bathe in the Grand Junction ('anal, mar Brentford, when a small boy. who was already bathing, got beyond his depth, nnd wns being carried away by the current Scout Smilh although a poor swim ���mer, said to his companion, "I'll try to i get him," and dashing into the water, did his boit to save the lad, hut was himself curried down by the stream. Iloth boys wire drowned. But Scout Smith's attempt wlll stand as a noble example to his brother scouts of hero- Ismand self-sacrifice. The bronze cross for gallantry. which would have been given to him hnd li" lived, was nwarded to him though dead, nnd is now In tho possession of his father. These few examples aro picked nt random from a record of over three hundred capes of life-saving, and of some millions of "good turns" done during the in-1 three years.

London, March 10.- Crockfords, the Compilers of the Clerical Directory, [report thai forty Church of England ; Clergymen huve disappeared from the list during the past year. Many of these have been traced as abandoning holy orders, but there Is a net loss of twentv-slx during the year who are untraceable. Films Showing Impure Conditions Affecting Milk and Results In Spreading Dlssase. Berlin, March 10.���A moving picture film showing the dangers of an Im- pure milk BUpply has been exhibited with such good effect In Germany that health officials at once became much more rigorous ln tbelr enforcements of the pure food regulations, Their cnmpalgk against negligent dairymen was conducted wllh such energy that the milkmen finally presented a petition to tbe authorities, asking for the prohibition of tbls pari leu lar film. In reply lo this notion Professor Schlossmann of the DUSSel- dorf Municipal Hospital for Children, who Is responsible for the film, proved that It had led to the conviction of many dairymen for violation of the pure food regulations. Its exhibition was not discontinued. Much ls being said nowadays lu Germany about the possible evil effects of moving pictures, but the other j side of the question, the moving pic I ture ns a public educator, is well II- I lustrated by the experiment of Professor Schlossmann. Ills film showed particularly how impure milk Is re- jsponsible for many of the diseases 1 of children, and it was exhibited ex- i lenslvely throughout the Ithlne province In promoting it propaganda for reducing the rate of Infant mortality, The net results so fnr have been excellent. The health authorities are enforcing rules nnd regulations much more effectively: the dairymen nre producing a better article, and the children are drinking cleaner und purer milk. Moving pictures have become an Important part of tbe entertainment business in Germany There are now ��� no less than 220 moving picture "theatres" In the capital, with as many i more In the suburbs. The tendency , Is now to erect special houses, architecturally suited for picture shows Three Fuch establishments nre now I building In Berlin, one of which will sea 1600 persons. I On the other band, there are al-j ready signs of over-production ln the . business. Wllh so many competitors j I In the field, prices of admission must ! be kept very low. More-over, thn | film producing companies, which are' jou a strong financial basis, are male- \ Ing harder terms for the show managers than hitherto, particularly for j the tiest class of films. As competition grows, the tendency I ; to put on trashy, sensational nnd inelo- dramatic films increases. Many of j the managers hew as closely as pos- I slble to the line of police prohibition; hence the cry Is raised with* growing frequency in the press for a ' more rigid censorship of films. A committee of university profes- ! sors, scientific and literary men and artists, has been appointed to find ways and means for making tbe mov- Ing picture do better service.

Si>nio idea of the method may be gnines] Irom its employment lor land measuring. The distance to a mountain top is desired. The surveyor lays off a few hundred yards on the ground, finds the angles at which straight lines proceed from this basis of measurement to the mountain top and then solves the problem easily. To ascertain the distance to the moon a very long line is needed���one drawn between two observatories will do��� not along the earth's surface, which is round, but the straight line through the earth, from observatcry t.> observatory.

Probably not, and that is a very good reason why you rhould immediately make a Will and appoint this Company Executor. Whe'n the time comes to adminster an estate, the average man without experience hardly knows where to start. He spouts time and money learning, and even then regrets the time taken from hiB own personal affairs. Maybe the estate may require a little money to finance for a short period, and the average man needs all his capital and credit in his own business. How long would It take until your business and Investments were badly disorganized or in- volved if not carefully looked after, or in the hands of one ���without the proper facilities. lt is just these very troubles experienced In so many cases tbat led the requirement and formation of Trust Companies. The Dominion Trust Company has paid up capital and surplus of 19,600,000.00. Its business is to act as executor, and any other business it does is quite as much a side line to it an the handling of estates is to the private executor. It has the knowledge, ability, reliability, capital, energy, experience, to handle estates in the ablest possible manner Thnt in the kind of executor you should have. It will be well worth your while to call in today and have B talk about this matter as it concerns you.
