FOR IMPERIAL DEFENCE,
has been in vogue for several years.
M, Hugot, a Parisian tailor, was stop-
ped. on the street by a policeman, who
asked him if he had not committed a
murder some years before. Aghast at
Hugot the question, gt demanded an
explanation of the official, and was told
that hishotugraph was one of a col-
lection of p murderers' portraits in the
possession of M. Rossignol, formerly of
the Parisian./ detective force.
The little tailor therdupon sought
out Rossignol's house. He was there
confronted with his own presentment
one of a large collection of the murder-
ers of both hemispheres, and ticketed
with his own name and a detailed
authropometric description of himself.
It was some time before the amazed
man could pull himself together, then
it suddenly came to him how it was
that he happened to be classified in
such company. He recalled that sev-
eral years before he had been arrested
by mistake with a band ofcriminals,and
while he was at the depot, before his
innocence was established, he had been
measured and photographed on the

A NOVEL SCHEME TO RAISE A
BRITISH DEFENCE FUND,
What is pitg1lsh Oaleer Thinks Bhonid
100 Done—A Goycrnateat Insurance
agatitef War Risks.
Capt, Maude, a British army officer,
makes the following suggestions as to
11ow to raise an Imperial defence fund.
Ho says:
Let us form a Government Insurance
Company against war risks, and let an
Imperial Conference or Board become its
directors • ' •
The annual value of our ocean -borne
trade already exceeds eligbtly 1,000 mil-
lion pounds a year, One penny in the
Pound on that enormous sum would give
about fivemillions a year to begin on.
With such a sum as revenue, money
enough to supply us with a fleet of
cruisers,'suoh as the world has never
seen,could be borrowed. This fleet
should be distributed on the various
trade routes in proportions determined
by the directors of the company. It
should be manned by officers and men
of the Royal Navy, supernumerary to
the ordinary establishment, but paid
for by the company or Imperial Board,
Just as India pays for her army. Fur-
ther, a sinking.fund would have to be
formed to provide for depreciation, and
also to meet the war risks, which, if
properly managed, would soon set us in
such a position that our trade might
defy the efforts of the nations of
Hints on Advertising.
Prudence is important in advertising.
A man can be enterprising in this, as
in everything else, but he should never
forget that he has no right to spend
what does not belong to him.
A good advertisement should first of
all contain truth, next ideas, then
knowledgeof human nature,and if this
is well mixed up with brains, it will
prove a specific for the cure of dull
business.
Advertising schemes that made mil-
lionaires twenty-five years ago are
worth nothing now. The world keeps
moving and old plans are getting ex-
hausted and giving . place to new ones
very rapidly in this progressive age.
Confidence is important in adver-
tising. .Those who have .little faith in
what they attempt rarely succeed, and
this is why so many new beginners are
unsuccessful at first. If you have no
faith by all means employ an agent that
has.
Some people imagine that advertising
and stock speculating are similar.
There never was a greater mistake, for
there fs no risk in advertising a good
article in a legitimate way if you know
how to do it. And, if you do not, get
somebody to help you, who does.
Men of character are generally suc-
cessful and they are more apt to have
enemies than those who" do not succeed.
Human nature is envious and the say-
ing that " a man is best' known by his
engemies," applies especially to advertis-
ing
dvertis-
success-
ful ones have the lmosthe dettrractors.

'Now the advantages we should derive
nationally from such an arrangement
are briefly these: In the first piece, the
danger of breaking up the union by a
war connected with some question
with which the colonies were not agreed,
would be reduced to a minimum • for
practically it would not signify to them
whether we were or were not at war.
Trade would have no insurance against
war risks to pay ; whilst our enormous
fleet of cruisers would practically keep
the sea so safe that even passenger traf-
fic would hardly be interfered with.
Again, all dangertoour food supplies
having been removed, the whole of our
fighting fleet could be devoted to its
proper task, viz., the annihilation of the
enemy's ironclads and harbours. Thus
the danger of the colonial harbours also
would be reduced to almost nothing
for they' are or will be soon sufficiently
defended to have nothing to fear from
anything except an ironclad of greater
power than our cruisers. And our ac-
tual numericalsuperiority in ironclads,
if we can concentrate them all on one
object, is great enough to render the
chance of escape for an enemy's battle-
ship too small to be taken into serious
account.
That the charge oe one-half per cent.
approximately, which we mention above,
would handicap our trade, is not to be
thought of. For our shipping -owners
are already spending

for cruisers; and besides, this sum would
only be required to commence with. If,
thanks to our readiness for war, peace
was not broken, or if broken, our ene-
mies so readily repressed at sea as to
reduce our losses to a mere trifle, in a
few yearsa far lower percentage would
suffice; till the tax became practically
nominal, as already pointed out above.
One great point in its favour is that no
elaborate machinery would need to be
created for the collection of these dues,
fed" ay could readily be paid to the
cut.. '1s' officials together with the ordi-
nary duties, or an arrangement could
be made with the underwriters at
Lloyds, just as bankers collect the in-
come tax.
Finally, such a fund and such a Board
would be absolutely beyond the reach of
Vestry politicians and economists. Mr.
Healy, Mr. Saxton and others might
continue to obstruct the Lower House
till the Day of Judgment' but their
noise could not reach or 'disturb the.
members of the Imperial Board of De-
fence, who, themselves having no con-
stituents to fear, might do their duty
according to their consciences and the
best of their understanding.
England's Cat Show.
The twenty-seventh National Cat
Show of England, recently held in the
Crystal Palace, just outside of London,
has been the most successful that has
ever been held. There were 030 entries.
The strong point of the exhibition has
been the number of superb red tabbies,
together with afine assortment of
pure blacks, smoke -colored cats, and
cats with that peculiar tone of glossy
coat known as " cat blue." The efforts
of the English cat breeders this past
year have been towards getting rid of
the white in tabby blue and black cats.
In the opinion of manyexperts, a black
cat without any markings whatever of
white is the most perfect variety that
is known, and it is a proofof the ap-
preciation of this that certain dishonest
people will pluck the white hairs out of
a cat, one by one. It has been noticed
that the classes that are open to work-
ingmen in this national exhibition are
particularly strong in fine blaok oats.
Blue-eyed, white -coated oats are get-
ting to be highly valued m England
now, and one of these bore riff the
other day a substantial money, prize
that was offered by Louis Wain, 'the
great cat artist. Another prize-winner
of the show was a brown tabby Tom,
Champion Xenophon, which its owner
values at
35,000.

TI has often been contended by
physiologists and men of science gen-
erally, that nervous energy or nerv-
ous impulses which pass along the
nerve fibres, ware only other names
for electricity. This seemingly plaus-
ible statement was accepted for a
time, but has been completely aban-
doned since it has been proved that
the nerves are not good conductors of
electricity, and that the velocity of a
nervous impulse is but 100 feet per
second—which is very much slower
than that of electricity. It is now
generally agreed that nervous energy,
.or what we are pleased to call nerve
fluid, is a wondrous. s mysterious
force, in which dwells life itself.
A very eminent specialist, who
has studied profoundly the workings
of the nervous system for the last
twenty five years, has lately demon-
strated that two.thlyds of all our
ailments .and chronic-. diseases are
duo to deranged nerve centres within
nr et the base of the brain.
All know that all injury to the
spinal cord will cause paralysis to the
body below the injured point. The
reason for this is, that the nerve
roree is prevented l+y the injury from
leaching the paralyzed portion.
Rama, whao food is taken into the
stomaoh, it comes in opted with
numberless nerve fibres in the wells
of this organ, which at once send a
nervous impulse to the nerve centres
which eontrol the stomaoh, notifying
them of the presence of food; where-
upon the nerve centres send down a
