Mr. Bennett. is con- vinced that victory will tome perhaps slowly and little by little, bat come it The inimedia future cannot fail to be extremely and startlingly corn - plicated, writes Mr. laerinett, aad he warns against counting too math upon the ilext great offensive, which may fail far short of what is desired. Strange things may- happen. Beth- mann-lIollweg, for instance may fall, and Tirpitz and Reventiow ibe free to inject more of their ruthless inctliods into the war. Speaking ()Mahe remaining chap- ters of the war, Mr. Bennett writes: "I cannot conceive tile rerriaining course of the war, but we can be very sure of one thing, namely, that it , will not be what we are expecting it to be. Alarms await us; shocks await us. Our faith in ourselves is bound to be put to the strain. The fortitude of the timid and small - hearted among us will be shaken at the first crisis; or, if not at the first, then at' the second, and there will be more than two crises. Destiny will reserve our most severe trials for the pealed just paeceding the end, then all influences, some honest, some dishonest, in favor of a pease that is contrary to justice will he at their strongest. Our national ability to resist these influences will depend riot on the oratory of statesmen or ex- hortations of journalists but on the mental habits of individual citizens. spito of all experience' has taught as, we shall' never have been nearer to losing this war than at the moment when we are nearest to winaing it. , The most acute danger f6r us will probably arise during the first two onths the next push, but it may 'spring up any day.

There a son' e tcy "Engrosser" Was First a Dealer in all Kinds of Merchandise. Nothing is so necessary in any com- munity, nothing so unescapable as the grocer. It is the first business of the frontier settlement, and it plays the most iinportant role in the busthess drama of any „town. One can hardly imagine a city, in„ any age, which there were no grocery stores, and yet the institution is a comparatively modern one.' Do you know how gro- ceries originated? Only a few hundred years ago cer- tain fore.sightecl tradesmen in France went about the country buying up bar- gain lots of merchandise. They bought fire damaged' goods bahkrupt stocks all sorts of commodities. They bought these things "en gros" and made money out of them. The trade was 'carried to tnglaml,.where a man who bought hardware, thread, aarniture, sea." This wyr,es later 'shortened to "giocem" bat the term was still ap- plied to the proprietor of a general business. yhe groceay was a sort of racket shop, like the modern 10 -cent Gradually, it appears, the "arocar' found it more profitable to deal in tea, coffee, spices, fruits and non -perish - nos!! nd Emma dresse, allowing Another treatment eatervis to the lower edge 0 ia attached there, and falls softly over The deepest riv the edge in puffed or draped, effectmleas,t sound.
