The Imperial idea is a plant of no forced growth. It lias flourished on.the moorland, of' world-conflict and world-iealousy exposed, to the'storm of human-vicissitude and suffering, the inevitable exactions of time.—Sir Gilbert Parker/M.P. . "Can any little boy," asked the new teachor, "tell me the difference between' a lake and an ocean?" ''I can," replied Edward, whose wisdow had been learned from experience, "Lakes are much pleasanter to swallow when you fall in." Great Britain has three, interests to protect in. South.Africa: '-the imperial tie, the natives, and tlio Europeans who went to South Africa at her instigation. And eho caruiot ignore her responsibility to. them. —"South African Notebook." . : Iu Great Britain nearly every countryman, thinks that the particular, county, in which ho happens to be'l>orn is tho most delightful and the most beautiful, or, at any rate/that, it possesses some quality peculiar.'.to itself.-? "Coiiatrv Lifo."
