FACING A WAK WITH RUSSIA.

Japan is facing an almost inevitable
war with Russia, and the most pro-
found thinkers of the world can see no
other outcome of the present strained
relation.
1t is a fortunate thing for Japan that
it's government is in the hands of the
conservatives.
Were the people who are bellicose
toward Russia in control of the reins,
issues on Manchuria would have been
framed long ago, and the abitrament
of war would have been resorted to.
We have grave fear that the govern
ment will be dragooned into hostilities
through some overt act Which can be
redressed only by recourse to arms.
Russia is not the sixth rate power
China proved to be; on the contrary. it
is not improbable that the position of
the antagonists, if they should clash,
might prove analogous to that prevail
ing between Japan and China during
their conflict.
Great Britain's interests are so CO.
joined to those of the Japanese-and
incidentally our oWn-as regards the
open door in Manchuri, that the one
will not be apt to move without the
other.
1t is therefore quite within the bounds
of possibility that England at least
may be drawn into the conflict when
ever it comes.
Concert of action would not leave the
matter of ascendency or suzerainty in
doubt, while independent action bv
Japan, with defeat the likely outcome.
would leave, as the upshot, Russia in
absolute mastery of the disputed terri
tory.
The Japanese must ''hold their
horses, Tor they will be run away with
to destruction.

IMMIGRATION TO CANADA.


1t is known that the Dominion of
Canada is making great efforts to pro-
mote immigration, and it seems to be
meeting with considerable success.
For the twelve months ended June 80,
the number of immigrants was in round
numbers, 1851 900. Compared with the
immigration to the United States, this
figure may not seem large but it was
equal to 2.5 per cent of Canada's
previous population, while the immigra-
ton to the United States was less than
l per cent of our population. Relative
ly, therefore, Canada is increasing it's
population by immigration more than
twice as fast as the United States
Most people, no doubt, think that we
are getting quite all of the immigrants
which we can accommodate, and even
more. This invites attention to the
quality of the immigration to Canada.
About 40, 600 of the immigrants for the
period named, or not very much less
than twofifths, were from the United
States. Nearly $4,000 of them, or, say.
one-third, were from Great Britain.
Or the remainder, d large percentage
was of Scandinavians and Germans.
1t may be said, therefore, that the
quality of the immigrants averaged
very much higher than that of those to
the United States, among whom there
was d large percentage of undesirable
elements, or at least of elements much
less desirable than those that came
years ago largely from Ireland and
Germany.
Until recent years the immigrants to
Canada were an uncertain quantity,
because the greater part of them avail
ed themselves of an early opportunity
to cross to the United States. This sit
uation has so far been reversed that
the immigration to Canada from the
United States is greater than from any
Other country and largely of natives
This is due, of course, mainly to the
development of the great wheat areas
in the western provinces of the Domin-
ion. along with the inducements held
out to immigrants in the facilities for
obtaining these lands on verv easy
terms. The Canadians are not alto
gether free from apprehension as to
these American settlers, as they are
by no means sure that they will not re-
tain their fondness for their native
country and its government, and so add
to the number of advocates of anuexa-
ton to the United States whenever that
question becomes prominent, as it is
expected by many that it will in the
course OF years. The probability,
however, that any trouble will result
from this circumstances is somewhat
remote. But in view of the great arri-
cultural possibilities of Canada, the
rapidly of the increase of Immigration
is we'll calculated to awaken attention
on this side of the line, as pointing TO \
rivalry in agricultural exports which
III time may become formidable.

DR.. Abbott's Faith.

DR.. Lyman Abbott has written a
series of essays on the subject of
Death and Immortality, which will
be published in book form by The
Outlook Company on March %. "The
universe of Gods house. This world
is not the only habitat for the liv-
ing. In his house are many rooms.
Death is only pushing aside the por-
there and passing from one room to
another" This the idea upon which
rest those practical and helpful chap
tiers on Immortality. DR.. Abbott ex-
presses in simple form the feeling
of the present age regarding the life
of the world to come. He profound
ly believes that Immortality is not
a future condition but a kind of
life, which is essentially the same
whether before or after death; and
he clears away many perplexities by
indicating how Immortality may be,
indeed ought to be;5a present achieve
ment. Out of his wide experience
DR.. Abbott has learned of the hopes
and fears, the doubts and longings
that confront men as they think
of life beyond death; and he writes
with these in mind. The book is
uniform in Typography and binding
with MI. Mabie's "Parables Of
Life"

Let your thoughts be clean and

You can make a little Eden
Of the sphere you occupy.
DO YOU wish the world were wiser?
Well. suppose you make a start,
BY accommodating wisdom
In the scrap-bOok of your heart,
Do not use one page on folly;
Live to learn and learn to live;
IF YOU want to give men knowledge,
You must get it ere you give.
Do you wish the world were happy?
Then remember day by day
Just to scatter deeds of kindness
As you pass along the way.

Shelters armies from the sun.

suggestive illustration of Paul's
method of missionary work. The pic
ture of home life presented in the
abode of Aquila and Priscilla, and
the vision of encouragement which
came to Paul in the night hour carry
with them teachings of the highest
value.
z. Christian Self-control.-True
Christianity teaches moderation in
all things. It emphasizes self-re-
straint in all that is hurtful, and we
find in this lesson, as in many other
passages of Scripture, the strongest
warrant for total abstinence from
Intoxicating liquor.
s. Christian Love.-Perhaps the
most beautiful passage in all PauPs
writings is the wonderful thirteenth
chapter of the First Epistle to the
Corinthians which forms his teaching
on "the greatest thing in the world"
which is Christian Love.
8. Paul and Apollos.-God has use
for men of varied talents in the work
of his kingdom. This lesson is valua-
bic as showing US how a gifted and
eloquent man was fitted for service
in the early Christian Church.
10. Paul at Ephesus.-In reviewing
this, as well as the other lessons of
this quarter, let us read the connect
ing passages in the book of Acts. In
this way we shall gain a far o sat.
isfactory understanding of Pauls do
ings at Ephesus, for example, than
if we limit ourselves to the detached
selections assigned for the successive
lessons.
II. The Riot at Ephesus.-There is
an inevitable antagonism between
Christianity and sin in all it's varied
forms. When Paul preached the
Gospel of Christ to the idolatrous
worshippers of the Ephesian Diana,
it was certain to provoke the opposi-
ton of all the votaries of the heather
goddess. The disturbance that they
sought to make, however, was quelled,
and Paul was permitted to leave the
of Ephesus in safety.
u. Paul's Message to the Ephe-
sians.-The lessons of the quarter
come to a fitting elimination in the
message sent to the Ephesians in the
which Paul wrote to that
church. Let us all seek to attain un-
to that new life in Christ so beauti-
set forth in that Epistle.

NOTES ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON FOR MARCH 20.


Golden Text. Lo, I am with you
Away, ever unto the end of the world.
Matt. 1920.
/. Paul and Silas at Philippi.-Two
great thoughts were suggested by this
lesson. One was that of Gods care
for his servants as shown in the mid
night dcliverance of Paul and Silas
from their bonds. The other was the
simplicity of conversion as shown in
the experience of the jailer and his
household.
?. Christian Living.-The Epistle
to the Philippians claimed our atten.
ton in this lesson, and the best pos
sible review of it's teachings will be
found in a reading of the entire
Epistle at a single sitting. 1t pre-
sents a noble picture of the Philip
plan church, and uplifts the highest
ideals of Christian living.
3. Paul at Thessalonica and Be
rea.-During this quarter we have
followed Paul through much of his
missionary work. This lesson pre-
Sents to us his experiences in two
different cities, and the contrast be-
tween the careless Thessalonians and
lne undetermined Bereans is typical
OF conditions which still exist.
+. PauPs Counsel to the Thessalo-
nlans.-Despite the Indifference of
the many, there were some choice
spirits IN Thessalonica who received
rne Christian truth proclaimed by
Ia0I' and to the church which grew
out OF these faithful ones, he adj
dressed the helpful Epistle from
which our lesson is taken.
D. Paul at Athens.-In his visit to
Athens Paul came into contact with
ne highest type of intellectual life
''e ancient world. One thing,
however, and that the greatest, was
