Il Tu ne cede Vail. scd contra audentlor Ito"

The current furry in England's foreign
relations has led her to cast anxious eyes once
more upon the strength and condition Of her
fleet. The four great nayies of the world are
those OF England, France, Italy, and Russia.
That Of Italy is more likely. at present, to fight
on England's side than against her; and neu-
trality is the least that could be hoped from II.
But the danger Of France and Russia coales-
cling is always apparent. In their standing
armies they would, Of course, far surpass Eng
land, but of necessity the case would be one
mainly for comparison OF sea powers, including
also transports and conveys for troops. The
wide discrepancy between such comparisons rs
are made even by competent critics Is largely
ascribable to the fact that when mere numbers
only are considered In the different classes. the
putting together OF smaller and larger vessels,
and older and newer, Is rather deceptive.
One noteworthy comparison made some
months ago by Lord HooD OF Avalon. during a
discussion In the House OF Lords. may, however,
be worth quoting. He put the number OF Brit
ish battle ships at the beginning OF 1894 as As.
against 40 French and Russian combined; that
Of armored coast defenders as II. against 80;
that of armored cruisers as IL. against 20; that
Of other cruisers Ill. against II, with q superb
GRITTY also In British torpedo boats over those Of
France and Russia combined. On the strength
Of these facts he considered the pending esti-
mates as not sufficient to insure TO this country
the ommand Of the sea in time OF war. and
therefore inadequate for the protection Of the
British empire"
The real difficulty may perhaps be regarded
rs one not simply Of numbers, but also of posi-
tion and of interests Ia defend. IL, for example,
the question Is that Of China and Japan. Eng
land finds French and Russian ships and French
and Russian bases not far off, with possibilities
of local alliances. In defending the Suez Canal.
the Mediterranean. and Gibraltar, she finds
France established on interior lines at Toulon
and Brest, compared with hers ut Portsmouth
and Malta. Finally, she has a mercantile ton
mage eight times rs great as that Of France aud
Russia. and thus requiring II corresponding
amount OF protection in war.

FORMATION OF SILVER MINES.

How Nature Accumulate~ the Great Stores
Of Valuable Orc.
The process by which nature forms
her silver mines is very inte resting. It
must be remembered that the earth 8
crust is full of water, which percolates
everywhere through the rocks, making
solutions of elements obtai ned from
them. These chemical solutions take up
small particles of the precious metal,
which they find here and their. Some
times the solutions in question are hot,
the water having got SO far down as
to be set boiling by the internal heat Of
the globe. Then they rush upward,
picking up the bits of metal as they go
Naturally heat assists the performance
Of this operation.
Now and then the streams thus form
ed, perpetually flowing hither and thith-
CT below the ground, pass through
cracks or cavities in the rocks, where
they deposit their loads of silver. This
is kept up for a great length Of time
perhaps thousands of years-until the
assure or pocket is filled up. Crannies
permeating the stony mass in every di-
rection may become filed with the pre-
cious metal, or occasionally q chambe,
may be stored full of it, as if million
hands were fetching the treasure from
all sides and hiding away a future min,

Mounting Photographs.

The satisfactory mounting Of photo
graphs is troublesome operation, and
the following suggestion from q con-
tributor to The Outlook may be of assist
ance to amateurs: II have found q
method by which photograph or en-
craving can be mounted ON the thinnest
paper without curling or wrink.ling. If
the picture is photograph, 1t should
be ironed out smooth with a hot iron
and then trimmed. Mix q little gum
arabic in hot water SO as to make q
rather thick mucilage. Place the pic
ture ON the page in position and mark
Just inside the corners. Remove the
picture and take some of the mucilage
ON o ruling pen and draw . heavy line
Of mucilage from one point to another,
so as to make q line of muGlage all
around the place where the picture is to
be. As soon as the mucilage is sticky
put the picture in place and book over
it to keep it fiat. When dry, you will
have q smooth mount that will not
curl"
