The whole spirit of the 'meeting evinced the feeling that the occasion was a momentous one and the topic? were of vital interest to the future of B. C, if il was to be saved from provincial bankruptcy, the result of a prodigal squander ing of'the natural resource's of the province by the Conservative Party we'have had- iu power. There was a total absence of parly spirit cr political rancour; simply a calm and dignified enquiry into a serious posi tioti, seriously affecting the pres ent and future generations. . Mr. Stewart was first called upon,, but he very considerately declined to take up the time uf the meeting.- explaining that as he had arranged to hold . meet ings in this- district,' he would not stand'between Ihe- audience aud Messrs Brewster and Oliver. ft V-, '*> 1 it On Tie. .day.

"It's jolly iiueer," said Hugh, "I never dreamed he woulu" take it like that," 'There v.as disappointment and dismay in his tones but fortunately Delia did not notice. She was thiukiug of something else. "What did ho mean," she asked with a momentary light flashing in her - eyes, "by talking about placing me on.-a throne? Thrones are not to be -had for the winning nowadays,' are they?" ��������� "Not* that 1 know of," said Hugh, "but he hus been talking rather wildly, I thought." "Papa 'never talks wildly," eaid Delia; "he told me onco there was nothing ln the world that could.' not be bought; not even a throne, perhaps." She paused and looked at Hugh, and as she looked the momentary light faded from her eyes and left them soft and te*, .er, even moist. "And I would rather have you than any throne, Hugh," she said, giving him hqr hand. He b<-,nt over it to Kiss It, and her face clouded with a momentary expression of disappointment. "But I must hurry and get ready," she said, "I must not vex. papa by keeping him waiti-g when he has been so kind." l ' She ran away, throwing a charming tmile at him over her shoulder as Bhe went. In another few minutes father and daughter were off; and ���������^Hugh-first~t.idied_himself_a,-_ best he ��������� could for dinner, and then retreated to the billiard room, where he was in deep meditation, wondering what Mr. Hetherington's , easy consent might mean, when he leard a hea -y knocking at the front doi \ A few moments later the butle- came in on some pretext or another and hung about, evidently anxious to say something. "That was not ,Mr. Hetherington back so soon, was it?" Hugh asked, to give him an opening. "No, sir," answered the man; "Lady Castleman, sir," "Yes, sir," said the man; "her ladyship said'sho wished to see Mr. Hoth- erington particular, aid w.en I said he was out she asked if she could write him a noto in his study. She said it was most important." "Rum," said Hugh, the more puzzled that he knew Lady Castlehain should hnvo been at tho same committee meeting to wli'ch Delia and her fathor had gone. "I thought it a little strange, sir," e:dd the butler, deferentially; "1 havo never seen hor ladyship before, sir." "Oh, well," sail Hugh, understanding now Unit the man had serious do-ibts of his miiHlor's visitor. "I will go anil speck to her and see If I can bo of any service."

"How dare you try to keep me here?" she cried out fiercely; "what right have you to prevent me from going?" "The same right that you had to get admission here under a false name," Hugh, retorted. "Ah, but you will let mo go," she begged, exchanging anger for a pleading humility;'-"you will not be,hard and cruel to me���������If you knew every tiling you would be sorry for me��������� at least, 1 think somehow you might' bo sorry for me���������" i Tho tears wero in her eyes, the sad-. 2iess of her voice seemed to call on all' the'compassion of tho world to pity' i.or; Hugh still stood with his back ���������o the door, but his forehead had become a little (lain;. "If you knew all, 1 think you would i be sorry for me," she said again in ' the same 'soft and pleading tones; nnd thon she added moro quickly: cate hiB senses. Her wonderful and j pleading eyes were fixed on his, and saw well that his resolution wavered. She took one of his hands in both of hers, and he trembled at the touch of them. "l swear this is the truth," she said; "if you keep me here, I shall be sent to prison, for Mr. Hetherington has no mercy, and then I shall be ruined.

"I,cannot," she whispered; and her eyes on .his were terrible with their terror and despair, till Hugh felt he could not-endure tliem;and again turned his own away. . "Tell me your name," he said. "Eira," she whispered. , "Eira," he repeated. ������������������This name surprised him and he muttered it over to himself; and as he did so he was surprised to find that it was beautiful. "Oh, you will not be cruel to me?" she pleaded; "I have no one to help me���������I am only a girl���������let me go." "No," he said again, "you must wait'." Then he asked: "Why did you tell me yesterday that some misfortune would happen to me If I came here??" ."Because I knew," she answered moodily, "I knew very well what would be the result if you came here." - * ' Hugh .looked at her again and thought th"i's"nT5re~stran'ge-tliaiiTanyH thing else, How could she "'have' known of the queer yet quite simple misunderstanding into' which he had blundered? "Misfortunes happen to all who come here," she said again; _ "men have come here for help and mercy before you, and gone, away In despair to die, refused the aid of a penny out of hundreds of thousands of pounds. Why should you be more fortunate in trying to get a little help out of your uncle's abundance?" "Oh, but that wasn't it at all," cried Hugh, eagerly, rather relieved to find sho had such an entirely wrong Idea of what had happened. She looked as If she did not quite understand what he said, but she answered nothing, and Hugh continued; "Never mind that though; I don't understand what you aro doing hero under somebody else's namo, but I think you must either stop to seo Mr, Hetherington or else tell.me plainly 'what you want?" "I um horo only as an instrument," she said; "an instrument in, the hands of an old man fnr away who has had business with Mr, Hetherington." "What old man?" nuked Hugh.

Omitting the one distinctly modern military arm���������the dying corps���������tlie differences between the weapons of 2,000" years ago and the weapons of today are differences in detail only, und excepting the class of weapons making use oi gunpowder for . e propulsion of missiles, it is questionable whether there has been any marked increase in ef- ncieiicy either of men or of arms. As a last resort, when the order comes to rush the enemy's intrenchments battles are still decided by brute strength and hand to hand fighting���������sword to spear, bayonet to bayonet���������just as in the days when Caesar wrote, "The Belgians are the bravest." When Caesar Invaded Gaul his soldiers carried, besides their.curved oblong shields for protection, the famous Roman short swords, sharp pointed and two edged, lor close ��������� infighting, with javelins or throwing spears as missiles. These were also useful in hand to hand conflicts and ���������w"ere'"the~prototyp8"_of���������tiT0���������modern- bayonet. Steel had not yet come into general use, but these soft iron weapons ..had at least tl.e merit of being easily sharpened on any convenient utone. And backing up tho foot sold lers and. horsemen, just as the artillery does today, was the Roman ar- tillery, consisting of catapults, which were huge implements for hurling large rocks into ,the ranks of the enomy, and the balllsu, a devise woridiig on the same principle, for throwing quantities of arrows. In each of these tne propulsive force was pro-' duced by the sudden releasing of a great beam or tret trunk which had been bent by means of ropes and winches to form a huge spring, A shower of arrows hurled from a bali- ista must uve created us much havoc in. the .ranks of the oncoming Gauls a1 the 'bursting of a shrapnel shell among," Uio toot soldiers does today, while the great stones thrown by the catapults wen often'iih lurgo and hetivy us the shells of the modem howitzers.

Women Looking for Spies Women's Clubs In England Take Steps Against Germans Women's clubs" ln England have been enlisted in the movement to head off the activities of possible German spies, and Austrian and German women have been asked to resign or discontinue their attendance at many clubs which formerly welcomed them. A number of prominent literary women have urged that English women should be as cautious as English men about their associates and should shun all women of German or Austrian sympathies at a -time when chance remarks might "give valuable information to the enemy. Reports from Belgium and Holland of the activities of women spies who served as governesses and servants in Belgian and Dutch families, have also thown suspicion on German and Austrian women ln service in various parts of England. The Belgian refugees \vho=arcrin=. England-have---issued a general warning against German women as well as German men, and their tales of how Belgian cities were betrayed by German spies in all walks of life have alarmed the English. , , Alarming tales have been printed in London papers of alleged German spies in high social and financial circles, and especially all of the leading men in clubs have asked men of German or Austrian birth to resign or refrain from frequenting the club rooms during ��������� the war. Many supposed spies high in official life voluntarily left England before the move- *l-nt .against suspected persons became so acute. Charges were generally made that even Germans who had become naturalized had often done so only for business and social reasons and were at heart Germans as much as_e_ver. ,. ������ ��������� . ��������� o Bntain's War Resources Napoleon blamed his own downfall largely upon English tenacity * and English money.' The present war has already demonstrated what English money may be expected to accomplish lnA this crisis, Asked for a loan, the British investors rush'forward and in two days hand Lloyd George $3,000,, 000,000. No nation is ever too poor to fight a long war.* The American colonies struggled for eight years without capital and without oven a bank. '^Tho Southern Confederacy, with a white population of under eight million, continued its struggle for four years and* put in the field an army equivalent to a million men on a three year service. Tho North, with a population of If),- 000,000, maintained an army equal to 1,500,000 for a thro-* year service, and before the surrender at Appomattox was spending $3,000,000 every day. At the close of tho Franco-Prussian war the Germans levied an appalling Indemnity of $1,000,000,000 upon the French, which tho frugal Frank liquidated lu less than throe years. English , financial resources today can stand a drain of $10,000,000,000 far moro easily than the Northorn and Southern States in the 'GO's could moot half that oxponso.

Increases Demand For Nitrate of Soda, Which That Country Exports to All the World ��������� ��������� Strange to say, the one country in the world which in times of peace supplies the greatest agent to increases the production of the earth will new be called upon, for identically tho same agen' to supply the means of destruction, says the Bulletin of tho Pan;American Union, That country is the Republic of Chili, and tho product which has now assumed such tremendous importance is the nitrate of soda which it supplies to.tho world. Tho nitrate fields of Chili form a wonderful asset in tho national economy,'5 ��������� The greatest use ln recent years of Chilian nitrates has been "to make two blades of grass grow where.but ono grow before," and in thu capacity It. has been a blessing to huiniuiit*/. The use of nitrate" of.soda as a fertilizer, though very general now, has been known to om* civilization less than a century. The story goes thnt au old Scotchman who lived near the present nitrate fields about 1S1C spread some soil containin*r white crystals over part of his garden. Things planted in this particular spot grew wonderfully.. Samples of the ���������oil were sent to Scotland for analysis and the nature of the substance anil Its value as a fertilizer was soon established. According - to tradition, however, centuries before the Spanish conquest the lncas of Peru and some of the'natives of Bolivia kne.v of the fertilizing value of the white crystals, and are supposed to have known how to produce them from the crude material. Today Chili enjoys ^practically a world monopoly in the production of nitrate, and its use is constantly growing. In 1913 the exports reached the high water mark. Nearly 1,000,- 000 tons were shipped from the var- inuRi-ports_rof-Uie..country=and__\veiit to increase the productiveness of" the soils of many different nations. Incidentally Chili derives a golden harvest from the product. The revenue derived from the export duty on nitrate, if equally distributed among the inhabitants of the country, would give every man, woman and child no less than $10 annually. This great re eiu,i is being used to build railroads;' improve harbors, fostor education and to build up the- nation generally, anil taking into consideration the number of its inhabitants, makes Chili one of Uie richest countries in tne world. The Chilean nitrate beds are found in a strip of country about five hundred miles long, at a distance varying from fifteen to ninety miles from the' Pacific coast. . The deposits lie in great beds, or strata, and the product is easily mined. The overlying strata "are penetrated by small shafts "o"r~"drilis-on-through-th-e-Tiahir~al-riit-" rate beds to the underlying bedrock or' substratum of clay or gravel. At tlie bottom of the.shafts charges of powder or dynamite are placed, which, when exploded, break up and scatter the' surface layers and the nitrate. The fragments of nitrate are thon gathered from the debris, and carried in carts or smal* cars to the, ilocans, or factories, which convert tho natural product into the white crystals ., of nitrate of soda, sack them and then transport them to the nearest port of shipment. Just now, however, the greatest demand for nitrate will be to make powder and other explosives. Nitric acid Is needed to manufacture nitroglycerine, dynamite, smokeless powder nnd the various kinds of high explosivon used in theso modern times. Even in times of peace the United States uses for manufacturing explosives throe timos tho amount of nitrate usod In the production of fertilizer. In times of war no estimate can hi mado iih to the amount, the' world will demand, and doubtless the price of Chilian nitrate will soar. *��������� ll'OW OriHIHO -ruil OUtlCTI*** &1UETTCOMPANYUSS H' TORONTO ONT. *-AN��������� 1 t Due to Foppishness Made Cinema Film Not Yet Tm .loui'linl De- in b. **' ... .iri tells an anecdote of the \ih"xu of Purls tluii did not cuiiiu off: "A Htory Is going the rounds of the i . , ... ,. ,., ,i Idclnr.itloii of wnr un nrdnr hnd been given to a lon.lin,? moiIon picture con*, i tho nvuiibiK Uio co'o.iui corn of Berlin to have in rendlneis | this wonderful marksman Wonderful Marksman At Sniliy, nun: Lille, a French druguoii liiiiritHiuaii wuh ul'.liouud al a swing bridge with two coinrudjB to lihid fur In ui. ihu colonel simply biiltl to Ium iih Um rcguuuiit ru- tlrud, "Tlio minor Ik your������," H waa liii^ui'fiiiU tliat thu enemy hIioiiIiI bo hold buck without tlio liridgo being blown ibi, '1 lio niui'lisiiuiii hid behind the fonen sixty yiink from tho bridge.

It Is brought to a close by the reproduction of the declaration of the Triple Entente powers, that Great Britain, .Russia and Franco would not conclude peace eeparately. , , The French diplomatic documents ln this book are,divided in chapters in order to distinguish the preliminaries from the principal phases of the European crisis. The first chapter is entitled "preface" (1913) and is devoted to the remoter regions and the causes of the present conflict. <Aa extract of the Yellow Book given out officially in Paris,- reads as follows: "It was first in the spring of 1913 tliat we noted this colossal and expensive military effort which alone can explain-tlie desire to impose the Germanic superiority and hegemony upon tlie powers of the Triple Entente. When France responded to this menace by the drafting of the law of three years service in the army ,���������thls measure of. defence was denounced in official circle* in Berlin as a "provocation which should not be tolerated.' "April of 1913 a secret and official German report defined 'the objective and, the means of national policy' as follows: " " 'Convince the people . t the necessity of " an offensive1 war against ; France; prepare uprisings in Riusia " and in North America; provide for, in case of hostilities, the immediate absorption of Belgium and Holland. "These are the Ideas extolled in this repcrt. Such is the programme that ��������� -.phortly after we saw tne Germans endeavor to put in operation. We declare , that Emperor William, who up to that time had posed as a champion of , peace, admitted in the course of a conversation with the ing of the Belgians that he had finally come o . share the ideas of his military ad- ������������������visors;-���������He���������had���������placed-*t-himsel������- among the partisans of a war which he thought would not bo long delayed and the "..overpowering success of which seemed to Um certain. Public opinion in its turn permitted itseif to be won by the passions oi the military party, and came to consider the y affair of Agadir as a defeat for Germany. It regarded the existence of a strong France as a danger to Germany, ana the breaking out of a Eur. opean war was the only remedy for all difficulties and all uncertainties. "Thjse bellicose dispositions consM- . tuted a permanent danger for the peace of Europe. ��������� "From a perlisal of ��������� the six other chapters of the Yellow Boole, which aro devoted to the diplomatic negotiations carried on in the month f July, is' to be deducted and s'ipported by evidence the Impressions that tho combination between Austria and Germany had decided upon war and that on1 four successive occaslf :is thin , commission endeavored to precipitate war by violent proceedings, the purpose ,of which was to prevent or,Insure tho failure of all efforts at conciliation, Tho first of theso proceed- ings was tho Austrian ultimatum to Servia (July 21), which was the origin of this conflict. In Bpito of tho fact that the Bolgrade government offorod for the prosecution of the assassins of the Austrian Archduko every facility compatible with its dignity, tho cnbi- not of Vienna sunimonod tho govern- niont at Bolgrado not only to disavow all complicity with tho crime at Sarajevo, but fiirthormoro to permit foreign functionaries to seek the authors of this orlmo on Servian torrltory.

He (which was nevertheless known to the j we'll be hauled ove** the coals for it. lt was what you mignt call a night attack. We had some leisure in our position along tne Aisne, and tnere was a little village uear our lines where we used to go tor a bit of a lark. "One night coming back���������there were about ten of us���������we were sur- president of tlie Bavarian council), Germany Immediately and without restriction, united herself with her ally. The German Ambassador came to' the Quay D'Orsay (French foreign office in Paris), and endeavored to carry through a proposal which ho represented as being peaceful, but which was in reality threatening. He suggested that the conflict should remain localized, and that any intervention oa the part of a third power would result in Incalculable results.' This was tantamount to letting it be understood that Austria should havo every liberty to crush Servia and that Germany would have recoun-o to arms to prevent Russia from succoring Ser- Yia. ���������Confronted with,this situation, the first thought of* tho' powers forming the Triple Entente' was to gain time to examine the conflict with greater care,-and if possible to render lt less acute. The powers therefore asked that Vienna extend the period of delay allowed Servia for her answer. Then Austria became fearful that she would be left without a.pretext, of war and she endeavored to ward off this danger ' by another expedient. She declined or avoided the request for an extension and declared insufficient the Servian answer, which was given to ..her^ in good.,time. and. which- admitted and accepted her principal demands. Austria thereupon ordered her minister at Belgrade to leave the Servian capital (July 26) and-diplomatic relations with Servia were severed. "With this development the situation became considerably aggravated. The powers of the Triple Entente, however, still endeavored to, bring about a settlemen* In th,e mean- 'time M. Von Schoen, the German Ambassador in Paris, came to the Quay D'Orsay and demanded that France exert, her influence on Russia in a peaceful sense, but refused to exert similar influence at, Vienna. England proposed to avoid a, crisis by submitting the Austro-Serb difficulty to the official mediation' of the four powers which WL.*e not directly .interested therein. France and Russia accepted this proposal to internationalize the question, but Germany refused- under the���������pretext��������� that��������� she-could���������not���������thus .lumiliate her ally, and proposed "in the place of this common action the opening of direct conversations between Vienna and St. Petersburg,' saying the latter wa: ready to consent to this arrangement. The, conflict seemed consequently at this time to be progressing toward a settlement when for the third time, Austria, by a fresh provocation, killed the hopes held by all the Entente powers in the direction'of conciliation. She declared war on ,Servia (July 28) and began at the same time a partial mobilization against Russia on her fron:- iers (July 29'). The report then goes on to show how England tried to avoid a crisis, through . mediation of ��������� the Austro-Servian difficulty by the four powers not directly Interested therein, France and Russia accepted this proposal, but Germany refused, The powers of the Triple Entente did not, howovor, glvo up all hope and Sir Edward Grey, Brltlch Foreign Secretary, started a now project for four- sided mediation, In which Russia Joined at the demand of France. Germany however, evaded this. Tho French ropcrt shows how tho Triple Entento in many othor instances, endoavorod to avoid the conflict, Germany balked every effort. In conclusion tho Fronch report oays: "Franco, moved by a deep love of poace, exhausted ovory means of conciliation at her command. Tho successive violations of tho neutrality of Luxomborg and of Belgium and tho Invasion of lior own torrltory .wero necessary boforo she doclded to draw tho sword to defond hor vory lifo."

Doing our best to look fierce and create an impression that we had at least a brigade behind us, us flung open the door without, any ceremony. -Our first rush was for the passage where most of the Germans had stacked their rifles, and from there we were able to cover tlie largest party in any one room., ��������� They were so taken aback = that they made very little resistance. The only chap who showed any fight at all was a little fellow, who had good reason to fear us, for he had escapeu the day before after being arrested as a spy.

Tii ere is, however, a good deal of evidence that eminent Germans are beginning to realize that tlieir country has been very badly served by its diplomacy. There was Borne plain talk along theso linos when it became known in Berlin that overtures for an Independent peace had been made first to France and then to Russia, only to meet rebuff from both directions, This order relativo to diplomatic agents has given rise to more talk of the same sort at Berlin.- Tliero will be still moro, and it will bo a great doal plainer, when it becomes possible for intelligent Germuns to spoak their minds concerning the negotiations that procodod tho war. If over a nation has been badly served by officials entrusted with directing its International policies and controlling its diplomatic agoncies Germany is that nation.

This "is what he said in a letter .to Sir James Dun- lop Smith, who was secretary, to Lord Minto when the latter was Viceroy of India, and who conducted the durbar tour of King George and Queen ���������Mary through the India empire. To .Mr. Coningsby Dawson, an Anglo- American newspaperman, he told two or three interesting stories in answer to the question, -"Why is India fighting the Germans?" and one of them showed what sort of man is Sir Pertab Singh. , Some years ago a youug English lieutenant hud died of cholera in his palace. He was the son of a friend of the Prince's, and as the body was about to be placed on the gun carriage Sir Pertab went forward to lift lt. He was checked by a couple of British officers, who reminded , him* that if he wero to touch 'the dead he would, by his religion, lose his caste, and perhaps, despite his wealth, never be able to buy it back. Ignoring their protests he insisted upon raising the body and placing it on the gun carriage. ��������� The crowd gasped in horror and amazement, and the next morning when Sir Pertab entered his hall of justice he found 500 Brahminj waiting to reduce, him to the rank of an outcast. Sir Pertab laughed at them. 'I belong," he said, "to a higher caste than any of you have ever dreamed of, and you can't take it from me���������you're welcome to all the rest.- I belong to the same caste as the dead son of my friend���������the caste of a soldier." Then he turned away, and it is not related that the Brahmins proceeded, with tlieir work of depriving him of his caste. * Sir Pertab is one of the few princes who have .been permitted to place themselves at the head of their troops, but he is only one of many who, when the war came, placed all his possessions at the disposal of his emperor. According to another story told by Sir James Smith no small share of the miracle" of loyalty that has been wrought in India is due to an incident in which King George was the chief actor in; Calcutta at the time of the durbar. A great pageant had been arranged for. the emperor and empress, and after it passed the huge multitudes of people remained looking up at the royal stand where the emperor and empress' were '��������� stationed, closely' guarded. The people seemed to expect something that had not occurred, and King George instantly realized what it was. Forbidding tli3 -cscor-t���������to-followr-he-entered-'the-roya! carriage, accompanied by Queen Mary, and drove slowly through the great sea of people. They made way for the carriage, and then the ranks closed again. It took an hour and a half for the carriage to pass through and for* all that time the emperor* drove through ranks of praying and kneeling people. He had appreciated the fact that a demonstration of his implicit trust in his Indian subjects was what they demanded, and that action touched the hearts of India. Sir James Smith says that far into the night the great crowds passed the spot where the king had stood, and each mini knelt und sprinkled over his head some of the, dust that the imperial feet had touched. News of'the impressive in cident travelled all' through Indi", and the trust that the king imposed in his peoplo to tho alarm and anxiety of those who wero supposed to know them so much hotter, Is bearing ��������� fruit today, Sir James Smith said that whllo , tho Indian people have no great love for England as England they liavo-lovo for individual Englishmen and, abovo all for the ideal free Institutions and fair dealing which Great Britain represents. Allies must Depend on Russia in Large Measure to Deliver the Weighty Attack that will Result in the Final Crushing i * i of the Power of Germany Upon the staying power and fighting ese war, but since then it has hcea marvelous. With the lessons of that war befoie, them, and witn tbo national energy stimulated by tbo adoption of a parliamentary coiistituUtix and a larger'measure ot local self- government, the itussiaus have mpii- iy increased their output of goods ct all kinds, raised the staudard of the* industries, and above all, completely reorganized their army. Without Jo Ing the Slav ideuli������m which uuderlfcy their superficial barbarism iu tlia- past, they seem as a.people to bav* awakened to tho need of organised effort for the attainment of. a du������ measure of material oiTiciency.

In five years the' growth of reven*j������ (Irrespective of new taxation, whick amounts to only about $3o,OOl),000 for the period) has totalled no less than $365,000,000. Thic is proof positive of prosperity. With better methods off cultivation learnt largely .rom local government instructors, the peasant* are getting far moie out of thoir holdings. In technical quality, as.well as in actual' quantity, Russian manu&������- turers have shown notablu progress. Since 1900 the number of workine*. employed in mills and factories baa Increased by about three-quarters of *. million, and*the output by about 4& per cer_t.

To give her the coup do grace-���������supposing, of course, sho does uot submit to the desired terms before that is actually delivered��������� the land \yar must= bo carried well within her borders. France and Great Britain can doubtless assist materially In the operations on German soil which,' whatever may happen ln tho meanwhilo, will, wo all hope and believe, sooner or later take place; but to Russia wo must look for the weighty attack which will make them conclusive. Hence tho strength of Russia, and the extent to which she seems likely to be able to use lt, are quos-l tions of great moment. Of her latent might there is no doubt. Her nearly nine million square miles of territory contain almost inexhaustible natural resources. Her population of say, 170,000,000, increasing annually at a rate of at least 3,000,000, is an enormous reservoir of potential soldiers. 'Exclusive of her soluier caste of Cossacks, born to **the saddle and the sword, which furnishes her with a uniquebody of about 200,000 cavalrymen, she has upwards of one million young men coming every year to military age. In the matter of food supplies and of raw material for the necessaries of life and warfare she is more self-contained,; than ony other great power. By agriculture and grazing Russia not only feeds her own vast population but produces quantities of grain and butter for export. Her seas and rivers are plentifully stocked with edible fish largely in excess of home requirements and she has abundance of fuel ���������--timber forests covering nearly 1,- 800,000,000 acres, considerable.beds of coal and exceptionally rich oilfields. Her mineral wealth,.is ,far beyond her own needs, including iron���������much of it in close proximity ,;to coal���������copper,- lead, platinum, and gold." Great tracts of the country enjoy a climate at least as good as Canada/ while not a little of it is comparable to Southern Europe in fertility and weather conditions. It is the greatest of ^mistakes to regard Russia as a bleak, barren, icebound land. Only a comparatively small "part of the czar's wide domain's. can ju'slly~~be so described. That the people as" a whole have lagged behind the most progressive nations of Europe in the development of their almost inexhaustiblej resources is true, but they are both' economically and from the'military point of view much better prepared than is often thought for the strain of a great war. Of recent years Russia has made tremendous forward strides.
