But the Suez Canal did ' note fall, nor did England's nerve flut- ter. She was aroused instead, and gave Kitchener -the 4,000,000 men he had asked for. Strange to say, this was the effect of Frightfulness everywhere. Infal- lible Efficiency foretold that an at- tack on a fishing village, a Zeppelin raid over London, theeeinking of a liner, the shooting of an English nurse, must shatter England's nerves. Instead, it filled the slow Englishman with fury, and he entered the army by the million. To -day there are kundreds of thousands of Englishmen in the armies that are pounding Effi- ciency to pieces on the Somme who would not be there if it had not been for Efficiency's masterpieeee--Sear- borough, the Lusitania, the Zeppelins, Louvain, Edith Cavell. Once, this year, Efficiency sent her ships out to fight manfully, not rnurderously. Af- ter the battle _was over, nothing was changed; the sea was still a foe. And at home Efficiency is busy ,eeranging, not conquest, but resistance. Liberty, menaced in 1914, in des- perate danger in 1915; holds to her long -endangered faith in 1916 and sees in the future the salvation of that faith. Some things are plain enough already. The old things are not so easily destructible. The two - headed god is a false god. Fallible, Efficiency, Frightfulness unf eared, constitute together no Superman at hose coming the world must fall on 'its face. BRITISH SAILORS SUFFER. • After Two Years of Arrogance, Ego- , , tism and rrigkfuluess, End- ing in Failure. The New 'York Times reviews the first two yeara of,the war in a strik- ing aetiele, which is here given in , abbreviated form: „..s` , The Empire of Efficiency began the War of Frightfulness on August 1; 1914. On August,l, 1915, the outlook for liberty and democracy was at its • darkest. The first year ended with the Supermen everywhere iii the as- cendant; the second year ends with the common men and the little people coming toward their own. , On the eve of August 1, 1916, what had been • the general' faith on the 'eve of Aug. 1, 1914, what had seemed a broken creed on August 1, 1916, is coming out plain again from the murk — that arrogance, egotism, cruelty, and tyranny cannot conquer the world. A year ago Efficiency was driving the Russians pell-mell before it, held the western allies helpless, was about _ to begin the destruction ofSerbia and the working of British disaster in the Ottoman Empire. Only at sea and in Africa were the allies dominant. To- day Efficiency and Frightfulness are "--` surrounded and beleaguered; they have no longer any chance of resum- ing their offensive, and their only - hope now is to resist so stubbornly that the result will be a draw—a peace of exhaustion, a time of re- cuperation, and the whole thing to be' fought out again when the wounds are healed. The two -headed God of Efficiency and Frightfulness is not, after all, superhuman, invulnerable, invincible, or—what is snore to the point—infal- lible. EfficiencY blunders'Frightful- ness flees. On paper, in advance, Ef- ficiency was all -wise, Frightfulness irresistible.

Mrs. Neeld, of T7atley, Malmesbury, England, who Les\ we know, is Lord Fishers &tighter, writes in connection with the Merch- ant Seamen Society that at present there are in Ruhleben 4000 prisoners. Of these above 1000 are supplied with parcels from friends at home. The other 3000 are dependent for their for their food supply on the various organizations at home.

No mat- ter; the conquest of France was easy, Russia could not fully mobilize be- fore she would be grappled with, and Britain, with her "contemptible little army," could be forced to a favorable ,peace. Belgium unexpectedly resisted, and was slaughtered; and the sympathy and moral support, not only of the United States, but of nearly every -other country, were sundered from Efficiency by that act. Inefficiency could have done no worse. The old- fashioned, hit-and-miss, go -as -you - please mental processes which were to be superseded by infallibility nev- er stumbled into such a blunder as this. Efficiency carried her armies almost to Paris, and then Decadence arrested her descending arm at the Marne. That blow has never fallen to this day, and the whole infallible plan was split and shattered by the ordinary human mind of a French general who did not' believe in Effi- ciency, in Frightfulness, oe in the di - ...rine right of,, one nation to rule others. • The system of Frightfulness is not alone a system of atrocities; it is not limited to the slaughter of women and children by Zeppelins, submar- • ince, and individual enterprise. It is the system of warfare by which you continually appall your opponent; it destroys his nerve by its unexpected- ness and its violence. What Frightfulness Did. BRITAIN'S YOUTHFUL CHAN- CELLOR IS LIKED. Fifty-five Years of Age, and Famous For His Energy and Youth- ful Appearance. JAPAN'S PART IN -THE GREAT CONFLICT. Lord Buckmaster, the Lord Chan- cellor, who has been urging every- body to economize and save all they can in war time, is one of the most important men in the Cabinet, for it is through him that King George sig- nifies his consent to anything signed in his name. The Lord Chancellof' is technically "the Keeper of the King's Con- science," advising his Majesty in re- gard to signing all State documents.. Furthermore, the Lord Chancellor is the custodian of the Great Seal which figures on these documents. The Seal is kept in an elaborate purse made of the finest purple velvet, heavily em- broidered in colored silks with the Arms of -England—the lion and the unicorn, surmounted by the Imperial crown. Below is worked in silk a motto in Latin meaning "FM! God and My Country." A "Queenly" Chancellor. Uniforms, Rifles, Genus and Aitlirinuni- ton Supplfed to the Czar's Armies. The extent to which Japan is cloth- ing, shoeing, arming and munitioning the Russian army was forcibly pre- sented to a military observer who has just return to Paris from a trip along the Russian front. "I was astonished," he said, "to. find -great numbers of Russian sol- diers clothed from head to foot uniforms made in Japan, not only the tunic and trousers, but even the leg- gings. They carried on their shoul- ders Japanese guns. Their cartridge belts were filled with cartridges made in Jetsam Their leather belts and buckles were from Japan. And the stout hobnail shoes they wear are from hides gathered in Korea and made into shoes in Japan. So that there you you see a Russian soldier in Japanese clothes, Japanese shoes, with Japanese gun, ammunition and Japanese accoutrement. Supplies From Korea. It is an interesting fact that the Lord Chancellor takes precedence of every temporal Lord and anyone who is not a mefnber of the Royal family, and of all Bishops except the Arch- bishop of Canterbury. An interesting confession was made by Lord Buckmaster on one occasion „to Mrs. Alex Tweedie, who relates the incident in her recently -published reminiscences, "My Tablecloths." "The most interesting thing about the office," said Lord Buckmaster, in a note to kes. Tweedie, "is that it was held by a woman, Queen Eleanor, when her husband went to the wars. The result was disastrous, as femin- ine justice did not appear to agree with the proud stomachs of the city." The appointment of Lord Buck - master to the Chancellorship in 1914 astonished a good many people, for his promotion to the highest position on the Bench with $50,000a'. year came after only two years as one of the Law Officers of the Crown. Lord Buckmaster, however, was, before his appointment as Solicitor -General in 1913, one of the leaders of the Chan- cery Bar, where he had a very large practice. For some years he was a Chancery "special."

Korea is a great grazing country, aand is prov- ing a vast reservoir of raw hides which the Japanese are rapidly turn- ing into boots, • shoes, saddles and leather furnishings." -"How did these supplies get from Japan to the Russian front?" the observer was asked. "It was noted," he said, "that about the only vital point where the Germans had not been able to send their submarines was in the waters of the East China Sea, the Straits of Korea, and the Sea of Japan. These are the waters separating Japan from Russia and the Asiatic mainland, and the routes over them, commercial and military, are open and without menace. 86 Victoria Crosses, 130 Military tizing, and' satisf3rjpg.

The Military Cross is awarded for "distinguished services in time of war," and may be won by warrant of- ficers, as well as by commissioned officers of rank not above that of captain. One hundred and thirty war- rant officers have received the Mili- tary Cross up to date. The Distinguished Conduct Medal is awarded for individual acts of dis- tinguished conduct and for devotion to duty in the field. This medal has been earned by about 6,150 warrant officers, non-commissioned officers and soldiers during the present war up to date. The Military Meal, which was in- stituted some two months ago, is awarded to non-commissioned offi- cers and soldiers for individual or associated acts of bravery in the field.

No Lack of Monte Gather in Can- ada's Greatest Aseet. Statistics from the Government authorities show that the wheat crop this year promises to be greater than ever but the problem that is troub- ling the minds of the farmers in Western Canada is how can the crop be harvested? That is the predom- Meat problem of to -day in Canada apart from recruiting for overseas. The railways are providing special excursions to carry the men to their destinations but the effort will almost be fruitless if the labor does not come forward for the work in view. There is no disguising the serious- ness of the situation this year so many men having gone to the front or are on their way. Despite this fact, however, there shotild be no lack of men to gather in Canada's greatest asset if the country is to still continue the good work of the past two years in helping the Mother Country in the greatest war the world has ever known. While Canada has sent some hundred thousand men to the war there are still hundreds of thousands 'more left who have not en- listed and who are not assisting in the making of munitions. These have now an excellent opportunity of do- ing a little bit at home to help the war !thread.

"What sortNf arms and munition is Russia getting from Japan?" was asked. "All sorts," was the reply, "from the service rifle and small field pieces up to the big 12 -inch guns. The Jap- anese 12 -inch is a terrible, weapon, and they are content not to make any of the 14 -inch and 16 -inch guns, as they consider from a military stand- point that the immobility of the mon- ster gun offsets its advantages, whereas the 12 -inch gun is a very mobile gun and very deadly."

The parcels sent from home, pro- vided they do not contain prohibited articles, such as alcohol, patent medi- cines or newspapers, reach their des- tination now, it is said. This has not always been so and in the various ac- counts published, it comes out strong- ly, that before the A5erican Embassy took hold of this much -vexed ques- tion, not only were the conditions far worse than they are at present, but even the relief sent the men from home commonly proved to them a disappointment, and, therefore an ad- ded misery. Admiral and Mrs. Neeld happened to be in Germany at the outbreak of the war, and in November, 1914, were Mken to a military prison camp. They were not held there long, how- ever, but were sent back to Bad Nauheim, and in December, were re- leased to return to England. The Hon. Mrs. Neeld organized 'a, society for the purpose of relieving the suffering which she had thus wit - Dossed, if not shared, for a brief period. She also started the system of "adoption," through which indi- vidual merchant seamen w:thout ?tends sufficientlywell-to-doto provide Ler them have been given the com- fort of knowing that they are the °b - led of some individual solicitude. Frightfulness, like Efficiency, is in- fallible. All you have to do is to keep it up, and the inferior race is sure to get into a panic. It was part of the war of Frightfulness, therefore to launch Ireland at England's beck, to attack the Suez Canal, to set India and Egypt afire at a moment when England was., expecting nothing but an attempt to attack Paris again. So, suddenly, Frightfulness • attacked ED. 4: ther observation: "There's no know- ing what fee that young man will want when he reaches sixty." Lord Buckmaster, however, has known the rough and ready life of the junior barrister who practices in the county courts for small fees. When briefs of his own were scarce, he "de- villed" for busier friends doing their work cheerfully and well. Undoubt- edly his energy and 'industry have been the secret of his wonderful suc- cess. Furthermore, he is held in high esteem for his personal qualities, and, when his legal duties permit him to do so, there is nothing gives the Chancellor greater pleasure than to hie himself to the country with a fish- ing rod and spend hours on the river side. • Minardis Liniment for sale everywhere.

"The Russian ar- tillery officers are directing their own fire, and are getting splendid results. The only Japanese and French offi- cers are those temporarily assigned to explain the workings of a new piece, just as an expert is sent along to explain any complicated piece of machinery. Japanese experts ac- companied the big 12 -inch guns, not to manoeuvre them in action, but to explain how it was to be manoeuvred. That is the extent of their help, and the Russians should get full credit for what they have accomplished in operating their artillery. No, the Japanese have done remarkably well in arming, clothing, and munitioning the Russians'but they have not had a chance to do the fighting." FIRE 3,000 SHOTS A MINUTE. Part Played by Famous "75" Gun in Defence of Verdan. The famous "75," as the gun is generally designated in French cir- cles, is manufactured at the Schneider Works, a private enterprise, at Le Creuzot, France. The Schneiders are to France what the Krupps are to Germany. The hydraulic brake prevents any appreciable recoil of the gun, which automatically returns to its. normal position; once it is set for the right aim, no time is lost in the firing. The position of the gun is • not changed, and an unlimited number of shots may be fired. The gun fires up to 30 shots to the minute. That ac- counts for that "curtain of fire," which expression figures so con- spicuoilsly in the daily official bul- letins or communiques issued by the French War Office,. protecting Verdun are one hundred of these guns ready to pour out three thousand shots to the minute at the least' attempt of an attack by the invaders. Indescribable havoc is caused by such an outpouring of shots among the German forces. But it's as well to forget most of the promises made to you. STRANGE FACTS OF SCIENCE.

Repair Works Are Located Behind Front Line Trenches. , Quite near the western front in Flanders the Germans have establish- ed a miniature Krupp gun factory—a "cannon hospital," as it has been dub- bed by the soldiers—.where guns worn by constant action or injured by en- emy shells are treated, retested and then sent back to the fighting line. Two hundred and fifty workmen work in this hospital, an interesting ac- count of which is given by a German journalist, who was afforded an, op- portunity of visiting it. He relates how, when looking at the havoc wrought by enemy shells on the guns, it is difficalt to imagine how they can ever be repaired. Very often damage occurs to the wooden -parts, especially to the wheels. In the woodwork department are stocked all sizes of gun -wheels, so that in case of quick need a gun can be made serviceable in a very short time at ''the spot where 'the accident occurred. After being repaired, cleaned and thoroughly examined the guns are taken to a specially built proving ground. Here the rifling of the gun barrels is also looked after, and if necessary they are reground and re - calibred. Here also guns captured on the field are Temede for use. On machine guns for which all ex- tra parts are made and stored in readiness, the cooling jackets seem to be the most vulnerable to rifle bullets. With oxygen welding apparatus these repairs and even whole renewal of the jackets are effected without diffi- culty, each machine gun being thor- oughly tested at the proving grounds before it leaves the hospital. GAY SHAWLS FEWER. Effects of of the War in Breton Country. A war correspondent in France writes: At St. Thegonnec, a village of Finnisterre, I stood by the famous old church, watching the peasants come out from high mass on a Sunday. The region is noted for the gay shawls the women wear on holidays; but now only a few young girls had on colored shawls. All the rest were black. It is the custom for the entire congregation to stroll down the main street after church and once around the graveyard before going home. As I watched them pass, the innkeeper's wife said to me: ' "Ah, no, monsieur, it is not like the old days. Hardly a family here- abouts but is in mourning. Some have lost one son, some have lost sev- eral. And how will it all end? Who knows? There is the Kerlennec fam- ily. They had four as fine sons as ofie could wish. Three are dead, and one is a cripple for life. How are they going to go on working the land now? They have a big farm, but the father is getting feeble, and no help is to be had. The only thing they can do is sell the farm. Ah, oui, mon- sieur! And they will not be the only ones. It is sad." I tried to overcome the woman's depression by felling her of the heroic name that the Breton regiments have won for themselves—how they are known and honored throughout France—but she only said: "Yes, the Breton regiments have suffered terribly." I learned later that she herself had lost a son at Dixmude early in the war. India's Rice Crop. SEED POTATOES SEED POTATOES. IRISH COB. biers. 'Delaware. Carman. Order at once. SuPply limited.
