SnoIf c | Ilillg! Empires

Trides frequently change the course
Sof. history. Many Of the out lying pos
sessions Of the British Empire were
acquired BY chance; almost, certainly
by taking advantage Of trivial things.
Three hundred years ago the Dutch
held the monopoly Of all trade to
Asia and India. Sudd denly, in 1899,
they raised the price Of pepper ii rom
three to six shillings a. pound. This
was more than Englishmen could
stand. The worthy merchants Of Lon
don met together to protest against
the un- Christian price of pepper, z
They did more than protest, for they
determined to get their own pepper
! from rom India rather than yield to the
Dutchman's demands They formed a
company called The Governor and
Company of the Merchants of London
Trading to the East Indies,' and sub
7scribed capital of $3.50, 900. On the
last day of 1900 nearly. three centur-
les. ago-Queen Elizabeth granted
them hem a royal charter. They opened y a
I trade with India and got their pepper
at; christian price, And they got
more than pepper, for it was this
S con company that gained a footing for the
English in India, drove out the French
and established British rule over that
vast peninsula and one-ffth Of the hui
man man race. 1T was only after the mu-
B tiny, in 1858, that the company ceas-
ed to rule India, and the Queen assum-
led the reins of government. Thus, for
an extra tWopence an ounce on pepper,
handful Of merchants laid the foun-
-# dation for the British Indian Empire.
More than one bit of the British En-
spire has been secured to Britons by:

The southeast trades are almost as

it the first Of the trades. considering
that any wind blowing without the
tropics has no claim to be called a
trade" This fancy matters little.
The great thing is that these helpful
breezes await the homeWard bounder
close down to the southern limit of
his passage, await him with arms
outspread in welcome, and coincident-
ly with the pleasant turning of his
ships head homeWard, permit the
yards to be squared, and the course to
be set as desired. And the ship Like
