| they become scattered around tn
 horizon. The wind shifts to the north
 east, blowing gently for time. The
 one sees approaching bank of heav.
 black cu umulous clouds which reacl
 down to the earth, there yellow witl
 the dust that has been gathered by tn
 winds and carried high in air until tn
 mist and dust have joined in a con
 tinuous wall, which advances acros country with threat of more dire deed
 than are ever realized
 And what bluster there is when tn, storm breaks! Papers and rubbish and dust are tossed about in deviou, paths, as though the elements were enraged, and it is not pleasant to bt exposed to the storm, though it is no powerful enough to do damage. It i. a case of mock heroics, but that is ar after realization, apparent when yor attempt to find the damage done.
 And when the wind has mainly spent its force there comes a dash of rain which seems for a moment ready to deluge the earth again. But there is not as much rain as you imagined was falling. A heavy shower brings but fraction of an inch of rain.
 Sometimes lightning and thunder accompany the storm, now with a dazzling display of bolts of fire that shoot hither and yon and with peals of earth-rending explosions with sur prises that make you shut your eyes and shrink back into yourself for pro- lection, while at other times there are simply great blankets of sheet light ming that work with such regularity that you are reminded of the baby's query: "Do you see my eyes winkle?"
 But there is increasing beauty with the passing of the boistrous feature of the storm, for then the clouds float idly ill a field of so perfect blue that you marvel at the beauty. In the zenith the depth of blue is so great that you imagine you are looking through eternity. The coloring fades away down to the point where the sky is fringed and raveled by the horizon of mountains on one hand and the broad ragged plains OH the other, and there the pale blue takes OH a greenish tinge.
 And the great mass of white clouds! They float so unconcernedly across that azure sky, that you wish that you, too, were one of them; that you might simply ''let go" and float away and away, with never another thought of the trials and tribulations of earth, to be in reality what the cynics might claim we are, but streaks of gauzy va DOT.
 There is a final stage of the storm. It is when the sun, hiding behind the western mountains, appears for mo- ment like great glowing mass of steel in furnace, then drops lower and sends back it's farewell greetings in pyrotechnic streamers that touch the many clouds with varied tones from the deepest scarlet to the hint of a color that is'lost in the approaching shades of night.

WAR OFFICE DEFENDED.
MR.. BRODRCK'S VIEWS ON GREATER
EFFICIENCY OF SERVICE.

London, March Ain introducing the army
estimates, f69,310,000. in the House of Com
mons to-day, the War Secretary. Mr.. Brod-
rick entered into a long defence of the War
Ofice, which, he contended, had done it's work
well, considering. he said. that war had never
before been waged on such scale as the South
African The War Office to-day was feed
ing 100000 men and 245.000 horses in South
Africa, and there were no complaints on that
score.
The experiences of the last year had
firmed the necessity for changes in the army
administration, in decentralization. etc, as out
lined by the government last year Military
officers and clerks being rapidly substi-
tuted in the War Office for civilian officers and
clerks.
In regard to recruiting, Mr., Brodrick be
lieved the limit had been reached No reduc-
tion in the strength of the army could be ex-
pected. and probably the Indian garrison must
be increased. The country had already had
enough experience Of allowing the colonial gar
rsons to sink below their proper limits With
the view OF giving FLIP to recruiting, the gov
ernment proposed to allow enlistment for three
years with nine years in the reserve and with
the object of inducing men to enlist for India
and elsewhere abroad it was proposed to give
every one { clear shilling a day. If after two
years the soldier decided to eight years
with the colors and four years in the reserve, he
would receive extra siXpence daily. Mr..
Brodrick believed this would result in enlisting
a better class of men.
In regard to the much discussed question of
volunteers Mr.. Rrodrick declared that if the
volunteers were to be bar to Conscrption they
must make themselves efficient. 1t pro-
posed To establish a volunteer reserve of men
over forty years of age, who were unable to
comply with the ordinary regulations, and
establish during the present year a militia re-
GERS would be cared for and the expenses of
young officers would be lightened.
