OF all the countries which have been
originally settled as offshoots of Great
Britain it has the population which is
most exclusively British, says writer
in the Century. No other European
nation has evor held any part of it, nor
has the drift OF continental emigration
been directed to it's shores. No weaker
race has got, or. as l shall have to
show later, is likely to get such q foot
ing there as will enable it to confuse
the forms OF national growth. Au-
stralia is more Anglo-Saxon than tho
United States with their negro millions
and their steady inflow of continental
emigrants; more Anglo-Saxon than
Canada, with its considerable fraction
of French population; than South
Africa, with Dutch Beers and native
races; than any country, save Great
Britain itself. Under the sunny skies
of the southern hemishere an almost
purely British stock has continent to

A bullet has been patented the base Of

II mas been calculated that about ter

There are some things that the aver

The former arc not nearly so numer-
Gus as the latter, so they may be cata-

The average cOmpositor sayo tie

persuaded that there is such word as
Ingenious. He is certain to make
1t into ingenious" at least nine times
out OF ten; and then, to restore the
average between the u and the /, be is
very likely to make "insidious" into
'insiduous, possibly misled by 'de-
ciduous," which he uniformly gets
right.
His pons asinorum, however, is
consensus" which he will set up
"copcensus" in spite OF the united eff
forts OF writer, proof-reader and the
whole staff OF editors. The word
census" seems to carry him off his
feet and he lives and dies in the belief
that the longer word Is census. with

Every printing office has what are
called style rules, which are intend
ed to be followed as closely as possible
A common, though not universal, rule
is that figures are TO be used instead of

Whenever nm attempt is made to quote
the celebrated chapter, ION the Snakes
of Iceland which is comprised in the
words, There are no snakes in Ice
land" the compOsitor. no matter how
legible his copy. will convert "Ice-
land" into ireland. the st. Patrick
legend being apparently more familiar
to him than the history OF Iceland.
But now let us see what the compos-
itor can do and does every day OF his
life. He takes manuscript, the Chi
Biography OF which would make the lid
OF Chinese tea chest blush with envy,
translates il into tho veInacular as he
goes along, corrects the spelling and
grammar, and oftentimes the rhetoric,
and turns it out, not as the author
wrote it, but as he intended 70 write it.
He sets up better English than most
men can write; he can detect errors
OF fact as well as OF style; he can give
the horse editor points on sporting
matters, and the religious editor on
theology; he can appreciate even the
merits OF discussion on the tariff
and detect the fallacies in a profound
leader on economies; and he can do
more hard and intelligent work in
given time, il he has to, than any other
sort of handicraftsman.
Setting off, then, MS eccentricities
and idiosyncrasics against his fund OF
general information, his knowle , 20 of
a wide range Of subjects, and his ability
TO discriminate between good and bad
literary work, it is surely no misnomer
TO call him the Intelligent COMPOST
