TUESDAY JANUARY, 2. l”1 3 :zen 1 1'--3. 'l'l'|E OLD YEAR AND THE NEW.

The year which has just ended had

a peaceful dawn. It was destined to

tions engaged in martial stnfe.In Feb- ruary last hostilitiei broke out be- tween the American 'authorities and the native forces in the Philippines and the conflict has goneon with vary- ing fortunes until the presantmoment. It may be hoped that the insurrection is now nearly suppressed, but peace is not yet assured. In course of the struggle the United States has been compelled to send large armies to the far Eas_t at enormous cost for trans- port and maintenance, with the re- sult that the unhealthy climate of the new American possessions has dea- troyed many more lives then the arms and missiles of the enemy.

By a strange fatality the year was

destined to plunge Britain into a still more serious struggle with the Dutch republics of South Africa. The in- cidents of that coniiict,beginning with the invasion of Cape Colony and Natal by the Boers in October last and followed by seven or eight hard- ly contested battles, are still fresh in the minds of our readers. And so it falls out that the new year begins with the two great English-speaking countries involved in war, and with vast armies engaged in distant quar- ters of globe.

Among the events of world-wide

interest that transpired during the yearjust closed was the meeting of the International Peace Conference at the Hague, called together by invi- tation of the Czar of Russia with the avowed object of securing a general diaarmiaent. The Conference utter- ly failed, in so far as its prime object"

was concerned, though it may hs I hoped that in other respects some good will result. But the nations have not decreased their armies or navies. In no previous year of the world’s history was so great an elort made by so many nationsjn increase their-.sea power. Never b©re were so many warships built or ships equipped with auch enormous des- , tructive power. And this pr para- tion for armed conllict on the seas will go on with unabsted energy in the new year.

The war in South Africa will

doubtless go on for months to come, possibly to nearly the close of the year, and though we may expect within that time that our armies will

verses, there can be little doubt as to

e no in erven on o oreinn power., our succeess ma be considered as

its beginning the whole of South

Soutli African troops

gather in a common cause regular soldiers of the Queen,tends.to accentuate this feeling. This incident has also given to other nations a wholesome object lesson ai to the solidarity and strength of the Em ire.

Still, the dawn of the New gear

breaks on a sky not wholly clouded. 'l he great nations of the world, if not subsisting in ooncord,are yet nomin- ally at peace with each other, If since the Franco-German war the greater European powers have been steadily arming, they have not in the nearly thirty years set the battle in array between themselves. During that period many threatening clouds have arisen, but thsrahas been no earth- shaking storm of war such as swept the world in the quarter century be ginning with the French Revolution and ending with Waterloo. There is therefore some reason to hope that so far as the principal nations of the ,world are concerned, their present peaceful relations to each other may ,be maintained unbroken and the twentieth century may be ushered in a year hence more suspiciously than was the nineteenth.

The approaching World’s Fair in

Paris seems an auspicious event, cal- culated for the time to promote the tranquillity of France and of Europe. The French Republic has been for years a centre of disturbing influences but during the greater part of the year to come it will be strong'y to the interest of the French Govern- ment and people to maintain friendly relations with the entire world. ,In the great exposition Francs has given hostages to keep the peace, which under different conditions that nation would be the most likely to distuib.

The puddle in the mthway

of most lives is a defective circulation due to z blood supply that instead of grow- ing clear and strong like a mountain brook. is stagnant and impure. Paddles may be purified. however, and and become limpid streams.

That is what Hood' s Sarsa- parilla does with human blood.
