The Westminster Gazette says that Europe spent in round numbers X200,- 000,000 200,000,000 on its army and £80,000,000 on its navy in 1906, as against £140,000,- 000 and £00,000,000, respectively, in 1896. That is to say, Europe spends to. day £280,000,000 on its army and navy as against £206,000,000 in 1808, a total increase of £74,000,000, or, any, 20 per cent. Seventy-four millions a year is equivalent to 4 per cent. interest upon a capital suns of £1,850,000,000. That is a largo sum.

Methodists Thought Them Immoral, The modern cuetom of wearing Moto ears was taken from the military these Introduced into the army by the Duke of Wellington during the Peninsular u'ar, says the Tailor sad Cutter. Lu early days these were known as Wellington trousers, after the duke. When they were coming into general use at 'the commencement of the nine- teenth century, the religious world and the fashionable were most determined in their opposition. A clause in the original trust deed, dated 1820, of a Sheffield Nonconformist chapel provided that "under no circumstances whatever shall any preacher be allowed to occupy the pulpit who wears trousers," But this was not all. Some doubts were expressed in many quarters con- cerning the a testion a whether a man could bo religious and appear In trou- sers, One of the founders of the Primi- tive Methodist body remarked to a cal- hmgue in the ministry that "trousers wearing, beer drinking iso and so will never get to heaven." Father Recta, a fatuous Methodist min- ister, twice preeident of tine conference (born in 1705, died in 1850), could not be induced to adopt trousers, and among the Methodists was the last to follow popular 'Bohlen In this respect. •.♦ ITCH rente contagious Itch on s cratches and every o humanor animals cured In t0 minutes by Wolford', Sanitary Lotion.

Often gun -shyness dis- appears the very day he makes his first soli 1 point and becomes deeply interest- ed in the business. In the midst of this new delight, he disregards and forgets other matters. Sometimes the fear is too strong,. and a regular treatment must be under- taken. Oftener the owner will have a short shooting Beason and does not care to take chances on n quick cure. His dog must be ready for business when the season opens.
