The Authors Meaning.

From the Manchester Guardian.
There are several anecdotes which. bear
out the theory that a competent and rever-
snt commentator may sometimes expound q
work of genius more effectively than It's
writer himself could do. especially such
works as tend to the aHegorical.
When the famous mystic Bohme was on
his deathbed, 1t Is related that some of his
followers came to him with the request that
he would explain certain more than usual
ly cryptic passage In his writings. He puz-
zled over It TO no purpose my dear chill
dreu," he said as he laid the book feebly
aside. when wrote this understood It's
meaning. and no doubt the omniscsnt God
did He may still remember 1t. but have
forgotten
A very similar story Is told Of other au-
thors-perhaps with as much truth. Klop-
stock. the German poet. whom his admirers
rashiy compared to Milton. was once oues-
toned at Gottingen as to the exact meaning
of one of his stanxaS. He read tt over
once or twice, and then delivered this judg-
ment: IT cannot remember what meant
when wrote It, but do remember that It
was one of the finest things I ever wrote.
and you cannot do better than devote your
lives to the discovery Of its meaning"

Oriental Progress.
From Harper's Weekly.

Everybody ia Japan appears to do worl,
of some kind: Is 1t country without beg
gars, without drunkards. and all are polite
and good-natured. Nothing Is heard or
seen Of the effect OF the recent war. The
people neither talk about 1t nor have they
become oyerbearing or In any manner In
toxicated by their great victories. but have
quietly gone to work to develop their in
dustries. to increase their commerce and
trade, and to get fair control over the
new markets which the success OF their
armies has opened for them.
A tendency to exclude other nations from
these markets does not exist, the uniform
and repeated assurance being readily given
by Japan's leading statesmen, that the
promis OF the "open door In Korea and
Manchuria will, as far as Japan Is con-
cerned. be strictly carried out.
Korea itself Ii gradually getting under
effective Japanese control and administra-
ton, which will be of much benefit to the
entirely out-of-date country, the resources
Of which appear to have been dormant for
centuries; these with proper and intelligent
administrative methods should promise rich
results. The natural resources of Japan
itself are probably somewhat limited, but
its people are frugal. intelligent and ener-
gettc, and the burdens which the late war
has imposed do not appear to weigh heay-
lily upon them.

New Genus of Parasitic Bees

From the London Globe.
