Filipinos. l believe the day will come
when America can say with a perfectly
clear conscience: You have estab-
hshed your national life, you have de-
veloped your national consciousness.
You may now assume entire charge
of your own destinies."
The applause at this point was scat
tered and a little murmur OF approval
went the rounds when Bishop Brent
continued:
But, gentlemen. we must be sober
and patient. Rome was not built in
day. l would beg those theorists who
insist upon immediate or early auton-
omy to read all the literature on the
subject available, or, better still, TO go
to live among the Filipinos for short
space. venture to think a short space
would suffice.
christianity has cut the Filipino alb
solutely off from the rest Of the Orient.
He fears the japanese as you and |
fear the rattlesnake. He has an eX.
clusion law against the Chinese as
strict as ours over here. He has no
association whatever with the other
Malay states. The only association the
Filipino prizes is that binding him to
Europe and America. We cannot af-
ford, for his sake any more than for
our own, TO turn him adrift by giving
him d privilege to-day which he has
not the capacity to use.
The Filipiuos have already the largest
degree Of autonomy that any dependent
people have ever had. in the Orient or in
any other part Of the world. with the
single exception of the overseas oominions
of Great Britain, and, being Of Canadian
blood myself, l am not sure that Canada
would care TO speak Of herself as de-
pendent"

The usual mode of propagation is by
offsets, which should be collected
from the parent bulbs and planted out
separately for year in order that
they may grow sufficiently large for
Towering. The majority of the species
increase somewhat freely by this
method and permanent clumps may be

anything to do with it.
The rug-caffeine-in coffee, acts
injuriously on the nerves and heart,
causing imperfect circulation, too
much blood in the brain at one time,
\ too little in another part. This often
causes a dullness which makes good
memory nearly impossible.
