In the Chinese ampire are about four hundred million human beings, practically all of whom itie ignorant ot what we call civiliza tion. From their own point of view they possess . a civilization older in years than any of the "foreign devils," towards whom they have in the past snowa sucn intense hatred. But their civilization, though in advance of all other two thousand years ago has stood absolutely still, until their leadership is ute the leadership of the small bov wno Doasted to his father that he was urst in nis class inquiry proved that he was reckoning form the wron end. Anotner peculiarity and one that bodes ill for the future integrity ot the Chinese empire is that it is divided in to eighteen huge provinces which are not possessed of any sense of national unity and therefore cannot be expected to preseut a united front against out side interference. Furthermore, these provinces ate so remote from one an other and the means ol communication ucic;iBiuauii3 sale to assume vast mineral and agricultural possibili ties of China. This wiU be effected by the great civllizers steam, electricty mechanics and breadth of informa tion. it is, of course, too much to hope that the revolution of thought and of manners that are surely coming to China will be brought to a successful issue without some violence and some protest. The way that the Coreans de stroyed a few weeks ago the trolley line on which they were asked to spend their "cash," will illustrate what mean. There will undoubtedly also be religious trouble; the likelihood ol which must be duly rt&embered by the diplomatists of the newer civiliza tions. Properly managed, neyertheless, this can be largely avoided it the Eng lish methods in India preyail in China ; for as in India, so in China, there are strong denominational feelings that can be, as it were, played against each oth er to produce social quiet.

' - The case of Spain is a familiar one. t was once well wooded and capable of sustaining a large agricultural pop ulation. Its trees were relentlessly hewn down by greedy spoilers, with the result that, in time, districts once fertile became rainless and dusty, the vegetable mould disappeared, the streams dwindled, and the population was driven from the soil into the cities, where many became beggars, advent urers, or laborers at uncongenial tasks or wretched wages. To this day the arid districts remain as Nature's protest against man's destructiveness and selfishness. There is a remedy for this and it is time it was applied. It consists in scientific forestry. It is not necessary to restrict tbe cutting of timber to a great extent. It needs only a little in telligence and a little after work in planting. A hill should never be de forested. The largest and oldest trees or napkin folded lengthwise and dipped in hot water and wrunjr out and ap plied around the neck of a child that has the croup will sometimes bring relief in ten minutes. Hot water ta ken freely half an hour bekre bedtime is helpful in case of constipation, while it has a most soothing effect upon the stomach and bowels. A goblet of hot water taken just after rising, before breakfast, has cured thousands of in digestion, and no more simple remedy is more widely recommended by physi cians to dyspeptics.
