"Never you miau," said Hugh in a great ruse, "what do you mean by dodging me like that? You scoundrel, you, 1 have a good mind to shake tho lifo out of you." He advanced, tall and threatening, and Hannah jumped back. "Don't you.toueu mo!" ho cried. "1 only wanted to see that there girl didn't sli]> you. Where is she? Has she done you already?" "Certainly not," said Hugh with dignity, "she warned me you wore Hollowing us, and now you take yourself home, unless you want a thrashing." "Vou fool, you," said Hannah, with euch a concentrated scorn and rage tliat Hugh was fairly taken aback, "sho has given you the slip already��������� where is she, then?" ' "Why, here," said Hugh, turning to the doorway. Hut the doorway was black and dark . and empty of all save shadows, and' able manner. "That is to say, you, penniless, arid on the verge of bankruptcy," said.Mr. Uetherington, "are proposing for the hand of a girl who will inherit more than a million?" "I know how it must' seem to you, sir," said Hugh, more hopefully.' "Of course, you shan't havo her," said Mr. Hotherington. "Thank you so much, sir," said Hugh gratefully. "Eh? what do you mean?" said his uncle susj iciously. "Oh, just that we want your "consent," replied Hugh, slightly confused; "I could never urge Delia to act against your wishes, sir." ' "Ah, you are playing a deep game, I can see," said Mr. Hetherington, thoughtfully. Hugh, conscious of playing no,game at all, but only of an intense desires to be rid of the whole affair, contented himself with another vague bow. "Of course," you don't forget 1 could cut Delia off with a farthing," observed Mr. Hetherington. "When I offered you Jones's job I wanted to get you in my oitice, but1 now 1 wouldn't have you, not if you offered, mo a ������1,000 a year." "No, wouldn't you though?" said Hugh, doubtful if this were a compliment or t. o revers\ "No," said Mr. Hetherington with fame, you might have aspired to ba c duchess, a princess, perhaps, for I wil, not hide fronryou that 1 had ambitioiifc plans on your behalf. There , is an American girl who may stand near the Italian throne. 1 dreamed of placing you upon a throne���������but you have chosen a quiet, plain, honest English gentleman. You could not have done anything, Delia, that would have pleased me better." Delia rubbed the end of her nose, very hard and said nothing, Hugh was so bewildered that he could not even think coherently. Mr. Hetherington took their hands and joined them, raising his eyes with a solemn look towards the ceiling. But as he looked down again Hugh caught his glance; and it did not seem to him it was a blessing that lurked within those moody and threatening eyes.

Copies of circulars posted In Italy and sent to Montreal were forwarded by the Bureau der Deutschen, Berlin. What purports to be quotations of correspondence between Russia and Germany immediately before the war is given. It is alleged, for instance, that on July 29 the chief of the Russian General Staff gave his word of honor that reserves would not be called to the colors. This is characterized,, as a. "wilful attempt to deceive our government." The Russian Emperor is further alleged to have pledged that "during the negotiations with Austria my troops shall undertake no provoking action, to which I plight my faith." In another paragraph It Is claimed that Germany, anxious to secure Qritish neutrality, offered a guarantee that Germany would not demand an inch of French-European territory. The general trend "of the circular ia that against its will Germany was "forced" into the war. The Belgians, however, are charged with stripping, robbing and torturing wounded Germans, sawing off their legs, gouging out their eyes and committing all sorts - of atrocities.

"Madame, 1 read in the newspapers that your son Joachim has returned io Berlin wounded, that you went out to meet him, and * * * that you regarded with priue "the Iron Cross pinned on his breast. 1 also, madamo, nave a son at tho war. lie was wounded, as yours was. But he has not been brought back to me. I,have not been able to take him in. I have oven spent , three weeks praying to God for him, not knowing whether he nves. He has not lougiit, thank God, under the same colors as your son. I3ut, as wife and' mother, I cau understand the joy you must have felt at seeing your son again alive. 'I feel no bitterness against your soldiers for having' wounded my sou on the battlefield. It is the fortune of war, but I rellect that it is in my poor Belgium that your son has lought, aud, without doubt, held command. It is here, with an ��������� armed horde devoted io rapine, to murder, lo the uttermost length of the most bestial horrors, that he has earned iiis Iron Cross. "Therefore, madame, did you "feel iso~pro"iid��������� on���������seeing���������liiau-as���������you-are. said to have felt? Did no afterthought trouble you? And, unless you were unaware of the orgy of the beasts of hell in our country, among wnich Prince Joachim has fought aud commanded, did you assure yourself ihat that Iron Cross bore, no stain, that it was in honor of a soldier's deeds and 'jould cover up no responsibility in the crimes of which my country has been the victim at the naiuls of your people? "Does it appear to you as likely that a single German officer, and your son more thnn any otner, can escape before God and before history the responsibility lor a joint work which has been consummated tor joveral weeks, methodically and without mercy, In all parts of my. country at ouce? "This Cross, then, ought it not to inspire you with a littlo terror besides the pride which the newspapers credit you with? "If delicacy, sweetness and sacred pity'remain the moral adornment of our sex in all the regions where Christian civilization has loft its stamp, every woman's heart ought to be doubly horrified that human hands could perpetrate the desolation and barbarism with which a country llko initio has been filled, uud,that tho emblem of tho Christ can find Itself in such a position as lying as a reward ou tho brtmsts of those who remain responsible for It before couscloiico and boforo humanity, "I do not envy you your pride madamo, faco to fuco with your son frosli como from the ravaged regions of Vlso and Dlnn.nl, of Aorsohot, of Louvain, or Tormondo, wounded, which Is nothing, but docoratud with tho Iron CroBH, which lu an Ironic sacrilege and a profanation worthy of supremo punishment, "No, 1 onvy you nothing.

It is Now Thought That Germans Are Busy Carrying Gold Out of England A distinct shrinkage is visible in the amount of traceable gold in England, writes the London Chronicle, lt is suggested that a great deal of missing gold is -in tha hands of Germans or has been smuggled abroad by German agents or by neutrals in the employ of Germans. Germans in' business in England have the same opportunity as Englishmen of getting gold, In view of the Importance which gold plays in the war, a German who collects English gold is rendering his country very valuable help, even if he only locks It up in his safe. Possibly this is being extensively done as part of a deliberate scheme. There Is the still more ominous possibility that tho golo thus taken from circulation ia being secretly .aiven away from t'.io couuiry to Germany. The export of a large quantity of gold in one consignment would, of, couvse, b? noted and checked, out at present there is nothing to prevent individuals from smuggling away several hundred pounds' worth of gold concealed about their persons or in thoir duggage. Hundreds of German women are leaving tho country, and there are thousands of subjects of neutral countries travelling from England to Holland, Denmark, Sweden and elsewhere. Many may be German agents. . The facts aro so serious that drastic action is necessary. Everyone shoulo be searched for gold botiro leaving England. i During the pust three months'the net receipts' of gold from abroad officially recorded have amounted to as much as thirty millions sterling. Moreover, Ave have notes equivalent to another thirty and a quarter millions of gold, and Bank of England notes equivalent to about another five millions. These notes should obviously diminish- the circulation of gold throughout tlie country by taking its place and driving It back to the Bank of England. Yet tho stock of gold at the Bank of England has not in-1 creased by . more than the amount received from*abroad. The Increased government expenditure, which now amount to nearly a million-a day, do3B not account for the enormous increase in circulation, for it is offset by the diminished requirements- of currency in other quarters. 'Hence the belief that money is to some extent being hoarded; that our enemies are operating against us in :he manner indicated. DEFENDS POPULAR REMEDIES t Enemy Prostrated Themselves The- following account of the capture of a party of German cavalrymen is to hand: .; - A sergeant in a French cuirassier regiment, followed by two men, was ���������riding���������along���������the���������edge'���������of���������a_w-ood,. when, to his amazement, he saw a German captain, two officers, and ten men come out of it, holding' their hands up in token of surrender. The sergeant, having had some experience of the treacherous ruses which wer habitually employed by .the enem ordered his men to aim at the par and himself advanced revolver hand. "What do you want mo to do?" the captain called out, speaking in excellent French. "Do you want mo to throw down my arms?" "Yes, throw down your arms." Whereupon tho Gorman officer, imitated by his companions, threw tils sabre and revolver far away from him. ' The sergeant still remained suspicious, and continued his menacing attitude. "Ah," sitid the captain, "would you like me to dismount and lio clown on tho ground?" "Yes, lio down on tho ground," said the captain first, and afterwards all tho othor German cavalrymen, dismounting from their homos, placed themselves In that humblo posture, Tho three cuirassiers woro approaching lo tnko tho group of prison- 'cs, whon other German cavalry (those latter dismounted and alro-id'y without weapons) onmo out of tho wood In little bunds and joined thoir comrades. Thus it wor that the throo o'lirnHRlers brought back to their delighted lieutenant, ono captain, two offlcors, nnd about RO Uhlans, on whom wero found 800 to flOO curt- ���������ridges. For this ac' tlio sergeant was decorated. It aftorwnrds transpired that tho captalii in command of tho Gorman pnrty was Captain V. Rndowltz, con of tho formor Gorman ambassador in Madrid.

Speaker bays Newspapers Should Investigate Merits of Medicines Before Barring Advertisements That an organized attempt has been ",. made to blacnen the reputation of tha popular family,remedios of tins country, uud to mislead uio newspaper publishers into rejecting the advor- ' tising of such medicines, was the charge made by Carl J. Balliett, of.. Buffalo, N.Y., at the convention of the Advertising Affiliation at Detroit. Mr.- Balliett is a director of the Proprietary Association of America which, includes in its membership two hun- i.red firms which mako the popular prepared medicines of America. Mr. Balliett pointed out that It is. the duty of the newsoTiper publisher to refuse the advertising of any fake or fraudulent medicine, just as it is his. duty to refuse any fake or frauduleut advertising, but it 13 not right to shut down on all.medical advertising bo- cause thero have been some fakers,, any more than it would be right to refuse to publish all department store advertising becauso certain stores have made a practice of lying about " bargain sales.' Disease aud death aro mysteries. People who' aro perfectly , well aro skeptical. They laugh at the time- worn patent medicine joke, just as they laugh again and again over tho many variations of the,operation joko ���������"The operation was a success but the patient died." This so called nu- mor has perhaps hurt the medicino business������w.ith well people, but when' the hitherto healthy man feels a severe pain or illness, he Immediately wants a medicino, and will bless the cure whether it lie at the hands of a regular doctor, a homeopath, au osteopath, a Christian Scientist or patent medicine. Thero is ���������nothing- moro ' doadly than disease; nothing moro . honorable than to cure It. ������ Mr. Balliett refuted the idea sought to be spread about that patent nu-di-, cines aro, unpopular by showing that from 1900 to 1912 the amount of prepared medicines consumed in America . Increased from $100,000,000 to $1(50,- 000,000 annually. He showed that, although tho American Medical Association is trying as an organization .������ exterminate so called patent medicines, the family doctor, individually, is not fighting them but prescribing them. He estimated that 40% of.,the prescriptions written by doctors today ��������� include proprietary medicines. The writings of Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, he said, have also aimed to destroy confidence in proprietary medicines; but that Dr. Wiley's ideas are "not infallible is shown by cases where his analyses were entirely wrong. Mr. . Balliett mentioned a case where, with all the power of the government, ho fought a preparation as being dangerous to health, and was inglorious!/ ' walloped. There has been "spread the idea that a clever faker can mix a few useless ingredients and,, by. smart advertising, .s elLJt'6^s^fJtLwidjvin_sJldju^^ ; whereas, as a matter of fact, the modi- cine business is notoriously difficult, and where there has been one success' at it, there have, been a hundred failures. Any medicine which has no merit cannot ��������� live, because persons who are duped into buying it once, will not buy it again, and the pro/it from advertising a medicine can oa.y come from repeat sales to the same, satisfied people. Therefore, any medicine which has been on the niufiiot for a number of years, and is sf.ll advertised, must have'incrit behind it, to account for its success, ���������In conclusion. Mr. Balliett declared that no newspaper is doing justice to its readers in the matter of nicdmal or other advertising, unless it investigates, not only Iho wording of tho advertisement offered for publication, but tho merits of the article advertised. 116 pointed outythat tho fow ��������� newspapers who havo'*beeii deluded into tho policy of barring out medical advertising have adopted this gonoral policy, rather than to -torm an investigation bureau of this kind which, could, in a constructive and usoful of- fort, Investigate and decldo what is a good product and" what is a fraud, in not, only tho medicine businoBs, out In every other business which advertises Its wares to tho public,, Too audlonco seemed lo agree with. Mr. Balliotts ideas on tho subject and tho chairman decided tlio question at isuuo iu his favor.

The present policy of the allies is to bide their time, let the enemy exhaust himself so far as he may by maintaining his offensive in France and Flanders far from his base, and then, when the attack has taken its full toll and winter and disease have done their share to push a vigorous offensive until not a German soldier remains on the loft bank of tho Rhine. All this pre-supposes that the present line of defence in FriiLce and Flanders will be maintained practically unbroken. Military experts say that the Fronch armies, with tho co-operation of British Imperial Troops, can guard that. So long as the Royal Navy remains in command of the "narrow seas and bottles up tho German high sea fleet in the Elbe or at Wilhelmshaven, just that long reinforcements of trained men can be sent at any time at very \ Bhort notice out of England to the point where needed, The general pub- lb would possibly be agreeably surprised did they know just now many trained and equipped men of all arms are at the present moment available at British depots, but are being held bafek simply because the situation does not warrant their immediate use nor the added difficulties of attending to the comfort and well reing of miny thousand more troops at the front. ��������� Tha last three months have witnessed' an unparalelled expansion of the British army. * Many moro regular divisions have been organized than ai.yone dreamed of before the war. The territorial units have , in most cases been duplicated. and ln some , triplicated. The special reserve have been similarly expanded and almost all these units, old and new, have been brought up to war establishment.- Lastly,' four new armies, each of six divisions or,three army corps, have been organized and are in process of training, while tlio Dominions, have not' been backward in emulating the activity of the mother country and India is also preparing to send army aft^r army to Britain's aid.

The outstanding difficulty is that the two million men Britain may ex- ��������� pect to have in the held before Uie close of next year are volunteers, every mother's son of them, and fight not from compulsion but by choice and with a very doflnito idea of what , they are fighting for.. The' war office ,wis therefore handicapped at, the start by a total lack of organization required for operations on so gigantic a scale, and also la'cl: of arms,' ani- munition and equipment of all kinds. What was available was the highly crained expeditionary force of 170,000 men and this was flung into the gap to hold the gate until the great raw mass could be' moulded into trained army corps. Every factory in Britain was working day and night turning out equipment and iu the space of three' months much of tho ground lost through uupreparedness has been won back. Most people know how well the special reserve aud the le- serve rogiments of cavalry which still average 2,000 men each, are maintaining the strength of the expeditionary Jorce. Many also know that the territorials, after three niontns' hard training, have become efficient troops and tliat they not only provide, a large, force of mobile divisions for nonio defence, out havo relieved the regulars for many purposes abroad ana like the London Scottish havo taken their turn in the Belgium trenches. But few people know anything about the armies of recent creation. Army orders for September and October described the organization on broad lines. Tlie 10th to the 14tn divisions the second new army; tho 21st to the 26th divisions the third new army; and the 27th to the 32nd divisions came up.by selection from the duplicate reserve battalions, form the fourth new army.' The now battalions are raised as additional battalions of the line, infantry and are known as service battalions. The recruits are clothed and equipped at the depots, and thence sent to training centres, where they are incorporated as far.as possible in regiments belonging to the county from which the recruits are drawn. The territorial connection is thus preserved. The recruits are much older than the boys, who usually join the army and their physique is decidedly superior. Thero has been almost no sickness. They come from all classes. The gentleman and the coal heaver stand side by side in the ranks. The conduct and spirit of the men .s all that can be desired, there being very little crime and wonderful keenness of all ranks. The officers live among the men and sha"re all their labors. The men' have enlisted to-' light and are "tigers to work. All are pulling together for the one great object. All this has not been brought "about without some hardships and difficulties to be overcome. But tho first new .army,-under���������General-Archibald���������Hunt-- er at Aldershot has now passed suc- cessfujy that stage. Tho men of the now armies do not grumble because they know the Immense difficulties which beset Lord Kitchener when he took office,.and every discomfort is taken wiui the utmost good humor. Tho excellence of the material, 4.he Tine quality and the head work "of officers and of the N.C.O.'s, the good progress of training, and cheerful spirit of emulation which exists throughout ihe training centres, give assurance that In due time theso first four 'of the now armies will not 1 e dilatory to stand behind the splendid British regulars now' in France.

Few Wounded Soldiers Die Dr. Low Osier Anticipates New Record Hor Mortality It is vory natural to suppose that most of the fatalities of war are tho result of wounds, but that this Is far from the case Is shown by some interesting records contained in an article In tho special war Issue of tho Scientific American of Novoinbor 7, which gives tho following figures: In the Crimean war, out of every thousand of French troops 236 died by diseaso and only 64 from wouuds. Among the English troops the corresponding figures woro 179 and 47. Napoleon in tho march to Moscow lost two-thirds of his army, though he fought only ono gonoral engagement. The Russian armies operating against him lost ln tho courso of five months four-fifths of tholr strength. The losses of tho federal armies in the civil war In two years amounted to fi'1.2 deaths ln tho thousand, of which only 8,6 woro causod by wounds, tho remainder, 4-1.6 being by sickness. In the Franco-Prussian war tho losses of tho Gormnns woro 31.7 n thousand from woiukIb and only 3d a thousand from Blckr.oss, This is explained partly by tho shortness of the campaign (seven months) and partly by tho fact that iho OorimniH were groatly Hiiporlor ln miinhors nnd woro ablo to send tholr sick home. In the ItiiHSO-JapanoHo war tho ratio of deaths by nlcknoHs to deaths from wounds was throo to ono among KuRslaiis und two to ono among tho JupiuioHo, As for ho pronent. war in Knropo.

Certain things are advisable���������aud thoy will bo done. * * * One . gets a comforting vision of hundreds of army cooks sweeping their kitchen walls every morning, uot so much for the s;.ke of hygiene as because it is jo commanded in the King's Regulations. And that, after all, Is no bad way or getting things done. Those to - whom rny thing connected with the nobie mysteries, of preparing food is ofdeep interest may study in following "pages the instructions ior ihe use oi improved apparatus; of iron ovens, steel uoilers, combined apparatus, and other- apparatus. All ���������.vbe are imbued with ihe spirit of the army. One apparatus, for instance, demands ys pound of woou and 7 lbs. of coal belore it will begin work in tho ��������� morning, and its sub-, sequent meals must consist of 5 lbs. of coal. Thus treated it is required to boil'water in one hour and' to get the oven , hot enough for cooking in ,forly-nve minutes. If it fails' to do this one imagines that the apparatus will hear something from the sergeant cook, or be condemned to eat coke for eight days. But I said that the book ought to be called The Book of the Onion, and that needs explaining. Weii, in the section devoted to the various articles of diet there is a paragraph devoted to onions. "This well known vegetable," it< says, "may je regardeu either;as a condiment or as an article of real nourishment'; As a slight liavoring it is considered an improvement to nearly all made dishes." That is the general principle., In the recipes .which follow its application is illustrated. Altogether there are 39 recipes for cooking meat, and in 29 of these the fragment and estim- able_onion_ is -included among the in- gredients, 'Is the.dish baked meat with potatoes? Onions are on the list of necessary materials. They are essential to brown curry stew with rice; meat pie woulu not deserve its name without them; steamed meat with haricot beans derives half its excellence from onions; beef rissoles, barley soup, and tomato soup all require onions to oring them to perfection. One trembles to think what may be the fato of the unlucky soldier who hales the' very thought of onions. But if the onion is in evidence in peace, in the placed cookery of the barracks, it is oven moro popular in war. At tho end of the manual there are recipes for field cookery���������the sort of thing that can be dono in haste while the enemy is lobbing shells over tho sky line, There are fourteen recipes, and all but two of them include onions. But, aftor all, the onion is a fascinating vegetable, and it is not likely that Mr, Atkins complains, vehemently If most of his meals havo a touch of its characteristic llavor. In- dood, ln tho recent weoks of furious campaigning it is possible that ho may havo been longing for a touch of Its fragrance to reliove the monotony of bully beef. Yes, as you may learn from tho manual, many things can bo dono with bully boof. Every soldier carries a mess tin, a woll mado, watertight affair, which will Btand fire and can bo used for cooking: Put your bully beef Into tho tin, add some wnter and an onion commandeoivd from tho nearost garden, and boll lt ovor a littlo flro, Whether you call tho rosult IrlBh stow or sea pie, lt will bo warm and comforting, heartening for tho work that Hos before.���������- London Dally Mull. their daring, skill and enterprise," are playing in tho great war. Nothing is too hazardous for them to attempt, and they wago aerial warfare with a keenness which has established for them' a great superiority ' over the Germans. n A brilliant instance Is that of Lieutenant Spratt, one of the Hendon aviators, whose services wero accepted shortly after the outbreak of hostilities, and whose feat has brought distinction to the International Correspondence Schooh, of which he is a successful student; Sighting a Gormen aviator at Montmorency, Lieutenant Spratt promptly went up in pursuit; Soaring "like n hawk above his prey. Spratt made it known" to the German, whose name was Heisden, ' that he had his gun trained on him. The German signalled that he would surrender, and planed downwards. ' When he was about a hundred feet from the ground, however, he tried to escape, but Lieutenant Spratt did not hesitate for a moment. He simply droi-ped on the enemy from the height,of a hundred feet, sustaining injuries himself, but securing his prisoner and smashing the German machine. It is a graphic story, too, which comes from Aisne. A German aeroplane, Hying high, visited the British lines with 'he object of reconnoitering. As the machine hovered overhead, woll out of the line of fire, a British aviator shot up to the attack. The German saw his adversary, and attempted to attack from above. Shots were fired, but they missed- their mark. Steadily the British aviator mounted, endeavoring to get above the German, shots being constantly exchanged as the two machines, looking exceedingly like great birds in combat, manoeuvred swiftly arouno one anotLer. Suddenly the British swung above. More shots were exchanged and the German machine was seen to reel and stagger, and then slowly come to ��������� the ground. Tlie German pilot was wounded, and once more the Britisn aviator had proved his superiority and skill. ���������.German���������aviators,���������indeed.-scarcely- know, how to combat the members, of the Royal i< lying corps. One aviator says that, although he has' encountered several German flying machines, they all fled.away from him. French and Russian aviators, too, are covering themselves with glory, and the story of how Captain Nesteroff ���������one of tho n.st men in Russia to loop the loop���������sacrficed his life in ���������order to prevent the escapo of an aerial foo, is one which must thrill the world. Nesteroff observed two Austrian aeroplanes mFking tlnir way towards the Russian ..positions. He recognized that It was absolutely necessary to,.prevent these aviators carrying information regarding tho Russian positions to tho Austrians. Flying towards them, Nesteroff succeeded by skilful manoeuvring in getting so close to one,of the aeroplanes that ho was ablo ,td llro his revolver almost point blank at tho pilot. The latter was wounded, and foil with his machine to tho ground where he was captured. As soon as he had fired, Captain Nesteroff commenced a spiral upward flight, nnd was followed by the second Austrian, It was Impossible for Nesteroff, however, to take, any .certain aim ut tho Austrian, and realizing that lt wns above nil else necessary to prevent lilm returning to the Austrian linos with the valuable iiowb he had gathered, ho nerved himself for a supremo effort, and launched his aorlal craft full tilt at ��������� his foo, Tho machines inrnn togollur with a crash nnd descended to tho ground Interlocked, both avlntors being killed.

Britons look to him to wipe out tlie memory of the 'South Pacific naval engagement with a Jritlsh triumph, lt was only a few days after he had been called In to unto the place, of First Sea Lord left vacant by tho resignation of Prince Louis of Battcnberg that tho South Pacific engagement took place, and Germany had to bo credited with the most important naval victory of the war. The now Sea Lord could not fn any degree be held responsible for this disaster, but wo may be sure he took It to heart, and that before long ho will efface its memory with a British victory should the opportunity occur. Wo. may be equally sure that ho will not be stung by public'clamour to attempt the impossible. H9 cares little or nothing for public opinion. He knows his business, and when the lime comes ho will provo it to any part of the world that may entertain ' doubt on the subject. Oddly enough, whilo Prince Louis was forced to resign because he was not of pure British ancestry, the man -whom everybody demanded to see as ais successor is only half British. His mother was a Siugalese lady of high .caste, and it is said that in Baron Fisher's character one may see the hardy, rugged qualities of tho Briton intermingled with the more wily and cautious Oriental strain. But no matter what his ancestry might have been, there can be no doubt thaf, he more than any other living man possesses the' full confidence of both the navy and the general public. It was Lord Rosebery who spoke of him as the "Kitchener of the navy." It is no secret that Kitchener is not loved. ' Neither is Fisher. ��������� He is too stern a disciplinarian, too harsh on offenders, too stony to appeals for leniency because, a culprit happens to be a personal friend, and he has an almost uncanny habit of knowing everything about everybody under his command. "Confound'him!" said an officer who served under him in-J,he West Indies.' "I believe he could tell you the exact number of cocktails I drink every time I go ashore." Baron ' Fisher's knowledge of the navy and all that pertains" to it was not acquired by any system of espionage. He knows ' the fleet bo- .cause_he_ma_de_lt:Jie_kjLo^Ohe_QffiCi era because' he works from five o'clock in the morning to nine o'clock at night,' becauses he studies nothing else.

You don't ,gh*e the chicken Iiv lervals for refreshment and recuperation.' It should be tho same wlUk warfare" Ho Is reported to have made the remark years ago that It ho caught the crew of a hostile submarine in lime of war he would string them up to the yardarm, even if he had to face court martial after- .wards. , Sor~e" years ago, when tha French Admiral Gervais visited Porta- mouth with his fleet, Fisher was told off by Queen Victoria, for whom ha had a great, affection, to do tha hoa- ors. In an interview her majesty expressed the wish that the visitor ba most courteously treated. "Madam," he replied, "I will even klas him If your majesty wishes it." Nevertheless, Fisher ' waa always1 adverse to alliances, particularly" maritime ones, for, as he, said, "You cannot shoot a friendly, admiral tor ignorance or negligence." This remark will euab.'e one to understand why he is not'loved in the fleet. When ha> was invited to become First Sear- Lord he accepted only on certain conditions. One was that he should be permitted to ladically change the whole theory of naval defence. It was Fisher who adopted the policy of keeping, the great bulk of the empire's naval strength in' the North Sea. -Before, his time the navy was scattered all over the world. Just as .It had been for one .hundred years. ,Eisher.Ji_OAto^i,_^sa,\?LJ.Uat_tlie_great_ battle of the future would be fonght near the coast of England, and. thera he placed his Dreadnoughts, leaving only a few cruisers to guard the shipping routes in other parts of,tha earth. , Under him the dreadnought came into exist-nee. , ln fact, tha modern navy is his work, and now he has been called back to use th* tool that ho created.
