HOW TO MAKE INK.

any drug store) makes by all odds the
best writing ink it is possible to obtain

cease to mark until all visible ink has
disappeared from it, and the freedom of
writing is marvellous. / am certain that

material the most elaborate pen-and-

hands, with the same facility that we
find in writing.

in all the leading cities OF the Sateriand Is
the most serious since the Boer war be-
gan. and shows more plainly than ever
that the Kaiser is practically John Bulls
only friend in all his Empire.
The immediate cause OF the storm was
a speech delivered by Mr. Chamberlain
few weeks ago IL which he said that the
British campaign in South Africa did not
canpare in severity and cruelty with ffe
conduct of the Germans in the war with
France. He proceeded TO cite some in
stances Of the way the Germans stamped
out the guerrilla warfare that existed in
some denarfments of France while the
siege of Paris was going on.
Germany, who never loved Mr.. Cham
terlain. has taken his words as a direct
insult 10 her army. especially as some Of
his statements are characterized as ex-
acgerated and false The result IS yio-
lent denunciation OF England in every
form. Most Of the universities have held
meetings. and the sfuds nts have adopted

however, should have such an ink to
fill his checks and to write all impor-

all important official papers should be
written with it, for the ink will remain
unchanged forever, and while by
various reagents the paper may be in
