Hitchinu to a Star,

Many people interpret the familiar phrase "Hitch your wagon to a star" as being an injunction to "aim high" Emerson, who introduces this expres, sion in his essay on civilization, meant no such thing. He says his imagina. ton Is greatly stirred by the waves. If an engine could be built which would accumulate all the power of the waves, since the tide makes the waves and the moon makes the tide, We could use this enormous power to run our manufac
 tories and move our wagons. Thus we would hitch our wagon to a starr Professor John Erskine at Chautauqua.

TRADE OF CHINA WITH THE
 UNITED STATES AND THE
 OTHER PRINCIPAL COUNTRIES

for an even longer period Is equally striking. In the period beginning with the year 1900 and again ending with 1913, the last full year preceding the war, the share of the imports of China drawn from the United States, as shown by official figures of the Chi nese Government, was in 1900 7.6 per cent; in 1913 6 per cent; from Great Britain in 1900 20 per cent, in 1913 IT per cent; from Japan in 1900 11.4 per cent, in 1913 2O.9 per cent. from Germany in 1905 (the earliest avail. able figures) 3.2 per cent, in 1913 5.1 per cent; Ruseia less than 2 per cent, in 1900 and approximately 4.5 per cent. in 1913. The war made a considerable reduction in China's inn ports from Europe, cutting off entire ly. of course, those from Germany, Austria Hungary and Belgium, and materially reducing those from Rus. sia, Great Britain and France. As a result the percentage of CMna's i'm ports supplied by the United States has slightly increased, having been in 1914 Fl per cent, and in 1915 8.2 per cent, against 6 per cent. in 1913, the year immediately preceding the war. Iuc lOIdl Value, IOWoVcIs Ol SIllud 5 imports from the United States in 1915 was less than in any year since 1910, having been but $22,900,000 against s25,S0O,O0O in 1913 and $26,- SO0,00O in 1912.
 The official trade figures of the United States show exports to China in the fiscal year 1900 $15,259, 1000; in 1913, the year before the war, $24,699,- ;, 900; and in 1916, $25,156,OOO; those to Japan in 1900 $29,0S1,0O0; 1913, $57,742,OO0; 1916 $75,0O8,O00. The exports to China in 1916 are $9,899,- 900 in excess of 1900; those to Japan in 1916 are $45,927,OO0 in excess of 1900.
 Comparing the fiscal year 1916 with 1900, the exports of the United States to China show an increase of 65 per cent, to Japan 15S per cent, and to Asia as whole Exclusive of mer- chandise for European countries sent to Asiatic ports) 130iper cent.

The prospective visit to China of a Commission composed of United States Congressmen and business men, to study trade conditions and opportunities in that country, lends in- terest to a compilation by the For eign Trade Department of the Nation al City Bank of New York regarding the foreign commerce of China and the share of the United States and of other principal countries of the world therein.
 This compilation shows that the share of the United States in the im- ports of China is exceeded only by that of Great Britain, Japan and India hut that the growth in China's inn pi6rts from Great Britain, Germany, Japan, India and numerous eother chuntries is much more rapid than Il Inn the United States. In fact our q Ire of the imports of China is de- . hing, while that of other principal hntries is Increasing.
 The total value of China's imports ii reased from $343.000,ooo in 1907 f S427, 100000 in 1913. the year im- n |diately preceding the war, gain in that period of about 24 per cent. A closer eAdIQludlIOu, IAOWOVOA' OA SAAS details of that trade, country by country. shows that in the same pe- riod 1907 to 1913 inclusive, the inn Iports from Great Britain grew from seo oo, 900 to $70,3OO.oo0; Germany from $12,s0o,00O to. $2O,5oo,Ooo; Bel i efum $S.2OO,0OO to $11,50O, ,0OO; Rus lsia from $5, ,6@0,0O0 Gin 19OS) to $l6,- { 100, 900; France from s2,5oo,ooo to i s3. 800 ,000; India from $36,40o,000 to ssb.
