The onnrtermnnter.

The term quartermaster as used In
both the army and navy appears to
be confusing and anomalous. In the
army it is the title Of a commissioned
officer who performs important and
responsible duties. In the navy he
is simply a warrant officer, directing
subordinate duties. In old ships and
under former arrangements his posi-
ton was a more important one, so
much so that he was considered to be
the fourth part Of the master; hence
the term quartermaster, being prin-
cipally engaged in assisting him in the
navigation OF the ship. Even at the

To every aspect of the problem Of life
Herbert Spencer must have given
thought, but he has plainly declared
that the human intellect rs Mt present
constituted can offer no solution. The
greatest mind that this world has yet
produced-the mind that systematized
all human knowledge, that r%evolutioniz-
ed modern science, that d%isslpated ma
terialism forever, that revealed to us
the ghostly unity Of all existence, that
re-established all ethics upon an i'm.

formula the history Of a gnat or the
history Of a sun, confessed itself be
fore the riddle of existence scarcely
