There is surely 'a terrible responsi- hility resting upon the soldiers of Hiram Percy Maxim, the son of the inventor of the machine gun, says the Technical: World: Magazine, He has patented a gun that will kill a man with no more noise than the hiss of a snake.

Last year Sir William Crookes predicted that unless Komethifg is done to increase the vield of wheat per acre, there will soon be a world: famine. The average vield per acre, the world over, is only 12.7 bushels, Prof. Crookes was denounced as a pessimistic alafmist. But within a year. the alarming condition: he pre dicted has been reached. "The world has a wheat deficit of four hundred millions of bushels," says a leading statistical authority. "America has a surplus for" export of 458.000,000 bushels, against a mini mum requirement of over five hundred millions We can supply the demand only by selling from our emergency supply." The population of America increases much move rapidly than the acreage added to farming lands used for the great primary crops. Since 1808 the urea in the United States de. voted to wheat growing has been in creased be only a few thousand acres; torn acreage has « ivcremsed a little more, but, comparatively * speaking, only a trifle; oats are on a par with wheat.

Some Lessons That May Found in Humility, Manchester Guardian Prof Boyd Dawkins gave of a series of at the the first four popular addresses Manchester University on the place of the earth in the universe, and his object might well have been to teach the human race a Josson in har olin sons Fe hataty bodies be engag- the presence of Ife "peculutions BS to wl wi ie He on our neighbor nig ou pared with the earth ahle identity of ts ry Tem bad land and wa stitution.

Were we then to believe that there was life on Mars ? He for one most Shaolitely and firmly held that there dee of Pirin life. The or lilo. existed 'on the sarth thos eof : he earth there was found life' in some form or another, And when we found the conditions in Mars much as they were here, that was to him absolute proof that there were living forms in Mars, because the conditions of life were there for them. Ihe importance of Mars, then, in an ehouiry, as to the place of the earth in the universe was that it showed that there was other hodies than our own which were inhabited. This idea has taken root in the popular mind, and Some people had gone to the length of leaving money to the first person who should telegraph to Mars, That, of did not follow in the least that the in- habitants of Mars were at the present inhabitants of the earth. The present order of things on the earth was com paratively of yesterday, and we our- selves were mere shadows that had appeared from time to time, the last in a long procession of organized he ings who had made their appearance on the earth. He did not believe for a moment that the process of evolus tion had stopped on the earth: the change of conditions which was going on now would lead to further and fur ther stages. In our own case he took it that we should either develop into something very much higher than we were at if we did not fit ourselves to our surroundings, should become characteristic i the future. Applying all this to the inhabitants of Mars, ly that they might present a of evolution either inferior finitely higher than ours Speaking of the fate of the earth, Professor Boyd Dawkins showed how the planets revolve round the sun in a sort of spiral movement, and how, by the law of gravitation, they must be come eventually part of the coatral mas. 'The enormous heat of the sun is kept up largely by the falling-in of planets age after age. Ultimately, le yond all doubt, and by the very na tare of the case if the law of gravi tation were true that must he the fat of the earth, and we and our civiliza, tion 'and everything on the earth would Be absorbed into the grat cons tral. mass. That, the long course of ages would happen to every one of the planets revolving around the sun. Leaving our own system, Professor Boyd Dawkins reminded his hearers that the stars were great blazing centres of other systems Our dwn planetary system was not unique; is was merely one of an infinite number of systems; a minute speck in the general order of things, and nothing at all as compared with the infinite number of other systems, probably built on the same lines and some - of which had probably arrived at the same stage of evolution as that of our own svstem. If that were true in regard to our planetary system as whole, what should we say in regard to that part of it which we earth ¥ Some people whose theble tendencies overpowered their esirono .mical observations talked of the earth as being the centre of the uni verse, It was really a mere speck' in the universe, From that he we might take the measure of own value. We on earth merely the Jast comers on-our own planet, and there were untold numbers of earths in the uhiverse outside. It was a verr good thing that we who were accustomed to he so proud of our at tainmente should come down to our true position, and that those who prided themselves on knowing a little more than their poorer fellows should realize that they and their possessions and the wealth of knowledge thev might have were absolutely insigni ficant in the general order of things. present, or, sils of it was yuite like- stage to or wm too, wn now suggested onr were Soldiers Will Fiy.
