UNTIMELY PROPHECY.

Here and there about the country are impassioned and earnest proph- cts preaching the message of the ear ly destruction of the world to inter- ested throngs. The prophets have chosen a most unsuitable occasion to press their propagandas, which but add confusion to situation already complicated by war. Under the cir cumstances it is both unwise and un- kind o precipitate an end-of-the-World scare upon people who are already in an unsettled mental condition.
 Since civilization has preserved a record there have been prophets in every age who warned of early world ending with the same insistence that contemporary prophets are employ ing, and despite the grisly foreshad- owings the old world has continued on it's daily grind; winter has fol- lowed summer, the days and nights have appeared on schedule time, and man himself has furnished the one un- reliable element in life's equation. h. stead of being providentially remov- ed from this vale of strife, the proph- cts have generally lived long after the cataclysmic dates and most Of them have died of old age.
 Whatever trouble assails man, at last he may safely put behind him any worries about world endings. Man on this earth is practically of the same material importance, so far as the physical machinery of the world is concerned, as the angle-worm, the cricket or the grasshopper. We are whirling in space on an earth-ball, we know not why, and we have man. aged to make ourselves reasonably comfortable during the process. Meanwhile we can but strengthen our grips and hold on as long as we may and be thankful for such measure Of safety as we enjoy.
 When one of our contemporaries assumes to have special and certain knowledge of the early destruction of this earth-life, and the myriad Of whirling worlds that we see about us twinkling in the night, in the light of past experience we should not lie awake at night speculating over the informat Nor. indeed, should we be even moved to pack our trunks.
 The end-ofthe4world prophet, in these war times. should restrain him. self. He is unsettling conditions that are already sufficiently unset tled.-Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

A ENGLISH VIEW.

There is no present occasion for getting excited over the new German admiralty order. It is three-quarters bluff. What 1t undertagkes to do, it it not within the physical power of Germany to do. We have heard of paper" blockades, which information al law does not recognize; now we are to have an underwater blockade. That this can be made effective is unthinkable The threat of it may have a certain military value for Germany. It will cause new anxietles in England about food supplies. and may easily push higher the already
