COLONIES ARE BURDENS.

Engisnd's Circumstances Bring Ger Com
pensations, However.
Colonization and territorial extension
are burdens, not gains. Great civilized
states cannot avoid these burdens. They
are the penalty of greatness because
they are the duties of it. No state can
successfully undertake to extend its
jurisdiction unless its internal vitality
is high, so that it has surplus energy
TO dispose of. Russia, as already men-
toned. Is a state which has taken upon
itself tasks of this kind beyond it's
strength and for which it is in no way
competent. Italy offers at this moment
tho strongest instance OF a state which
IS imperiling its domestic welfare for
10 colonial policy which is beyond its
Strength, is undertaken arbitrarily and
has no proper motive. Germany has
taken up colonial policy with great
isagerDess, apparently from a notion
that IT is one OF the attributes of a
great state. To maintain Il she must
add great navy to her great military
establishment and increase the burdens
of a population which is poor and heavily
taxed and which has not in its terri
tory any great natural resources from
which to draw the strength TO bear its
burdens.
Spain is exhausting her last strength
20 keep Cuba, which can never repay
tho cost unless it is treated on tie old
oolonial plan as q subject province to
be exploited for the benefit OF the
mother country. If this is done, how
ever. the only consequence will be an
other rebellion and greater expenditure.
England, as penalty of her greatness.
finds herself in all parts of the world
face 20 face with the necessity of main
tanning her jurisdiction and OF extend
ing it in order TO maintain il. When she
does SO she finds herself only extend
ing law and order for the benefit OF
everybody. 1t is only in circumstances
Ike hers that the burdens have any
compensation.-Foru

CHRONIC Discomfort,
1t Robs Life Of Half the Good There 4

II is trite TO ssy that we Giss half Of
the good of life by discomfort with or
Surroundings. But although trite, ,ve
pay so little attention to the truth Of
the statement that we still go on max
ing the same error. and look before and
after and long for what Is not"
Says Charles Baudelaire: This life
is hospital where every patient Is pos
sessed with the desire TO change his bed.
This one would prefer TO suffer before
the sto~e. and that other thinks he
would recover by the window.
The probabilities are that thu mnlady
OF discomfort would follow the so-calied
patient wherever he might be situated.

not in his soul. il is in his lot in life. and
he makes himself ard his friends mis-
cradle By expasiation upon il. Such y
person is the most wearing companion

him trial it turned out that he COULDN'T

Johnny said Muggins, kin yer dig

Johnny thought he could, so Mug-

"'Oh, why, Johnny, he left here about
