Modern Idea Of Greatness.

When we ask what 1t is that we mod
ems deem to Constitute greatness
among the men Of our own or a COM
paratively recent time, we feel that
the standard has somewhat changed,
says James Bryce In the Youths Com
panion. We set less store by monarchs,
for they do not fill the stage of the
world as they once did, although some
of them have still large opportunities
for doing good or harm. Neither do we
give quite such special honor to mill
tary glory as former ages did. Never
theless, the essential qualities that daz-
zle the eyes of man may be still the
same. speak chiefly of the greatness
that consists in action, for the ruler,
the statesman and the warrior do their
work In the sight Of the world and
can be judged by it, whereas the poet
or the philosopher may have long to
wait for recognition, and even SUI
preme scientific discovery may not be
appreciated until long years have been
spent in working out its applications.

my friend. 1T is necessary, very nee

A fitting memorial has just been

its face a brass plate with the follow

drowned in Canoe lake, July 8, 1917.

CALL CALABAR MIRACLE CITY
Real Wonder Has Been Wrought py
the English on the Deadly West
Coast Of Africa.

Calabar is a model little city in one
of the worst locations in the world.
The English seem to have built 1t as
last word in imperial achievement, a
sort of defiance flung in the face OF
hostile nature, to indicate that Jonn
Bull can plant a colony anywhere on
earth if he has a mind to.
Not that Calabar is particularly
imposing city In itself. 1t is hardly
more than a village-a trim, Clean
little village, with paved streets and
q barracks and a hospital and grass
grown golf links and tennis court. lts
official function is to be the capital OF
Nigeria, and to the uninitiated 1t might
seem a colonial capital, adequate but
not startling. 1t is only those VINO
know what the west coast climate IN
these ATTITUDES means. who nave seen
French and German and Belgian coast
towns-some of them representing no
mean outlay of money and effort-wno
annreciate that in a small way CalaDar
is a miracle.
In Calabar today the white man does
not perish with undue frequency. mat
Is the simplest way of summing up the
achievement the city represents. Be
fore Calabar was drained and paved
and sanitated and kept up to the marx
white men died there with alarming
frequency. They still do In most Oh
the west coast towns. You meet a
man in London and he asks you 10
fake the boat after his own for the
Mace of his west coast exile. You
comply, and there is nothing to greet
vou but his tombstone. He has landed
and died in the four weeks interim.
It is the climate that is chiefly TO
blame. and in Calabar you take no
liberties with the climate. If you walk
25 wards in the sun without helmet
YOU arr taking your life in your hands
as surely as though you went over
Niagara in barrel. When the Eu-
roneans in Calabar want TO go 70
cards through the sun they call q

According to the banker. when the

Rasputln,s RELIGIOUS System.

The Christian Advocate reports the
Countess Won Schaumberg as giving
this succinct sketch of Rasputin's
theology:
He made fundamental the doctrine
that there was no salvation without
repentance and as the righteous need
no repentance, the best preparedness
for salvation was heavy course in
sin. Blessed are the sinful, for they
shall be saved through repentance

to reports, the vessel had a unique
ballasting system. There was num-
Der of goatskin bags placed under the
deck between two large planks. These
bags, when filed with water, caused
the vessel to sink. To cause 1t to rise
again the bags were pressed together
with a windlass arrangement, forcing
the water out, and thus giving the
boat reserve buoyancy.-The Engineer.
