Influence of Emerson,

No writer so quickens the pulse of

throb and reel with the vision of the
world that is yet to be, writes Henry
James, Sr., in the Atlantic. 1t is as If
the spotless feminine heart of the race
had suddenly shot its ruby tide into
your veins, and made you feel as
never before the dignity of clean liv-
ing. Undoubtedly your first necessity
always was to report yourself person

ersou was an American John the Bap-

to the American Israel; but, like
John the Baptist, he could so little
foretell the form in which the pre-.

you went TO him he was always uncer-
tain whether you were he who should

Where Torpedoes Fail.

A remarkable fact about this in.

weapon is that down to the present
war there had been no instance of a
ship under way being struck by a tor
pedo. All its victims had been caught
at anchor or were otherwise station.
airy. And, from the best information
available, the same thing has hap
pened between Russia and Japan. Now
the question arises: If the torpedo
boat, which has power to catch the
hare, cannot cook him, how Is the
cooking to be done by the submarine,
which can neither see him nor catch
him? The design certainly is to use
the submarine against ships under
way to replace the torpedo boat, which
cannot act in daylight. And 1t is an
open question, which experience alone
can decide. whether it will be easier
for submarine to catch the hare by
day than 1t has hitherto proved for the
torpedo boat to catch him by night.
Certainly enthusiasts will be by no
means satisfied If the submarine
proves capable merely of attack on
ships at anchor.-London Review.

which proved much to his liking. To

were handed round, these being an ar.

taste, promptly returned it to his
