The currency question cannot be
settled finally byw anere consideration
of the standafd that (will make @ebts
easiest to pay.or.that will give the great-
est value to bonds.

both these questions, and the right is

Tor bad fortune, as he looks at it, to woo
and win Mary Hastings, esteemed by
many of the youths of Indiana. When
among the girl's less favored suitors.

of MaryTs affections, did not content
himself with mere words.» He Vay in

would have been the end of lieville had

heart had shifted from the left to the
right side, so that the bullet that. was to
have ended his life sped harmlessly be-
tween his seventh and eighth ribs, and
to-day he is about again almost as well
as ever, and preparing for the wedding.

~Pressure of the People on the
| the Labor Problem. !
The scarcity in northern India is as-
| suming a threatening aspect. The sea-
son has not sufficiently advanced te
estimate of the dimensions
to which the distress may attain, nor is
~lit yet possible to distinguish between
alarmist rumors and well-founded
~| forecasts. A calculation brought by the
last mail puts the probable. cost of re-
lief in four districts alone o;
west at 1,750,000 rupees, and the expend- |:
iture required to deal with the whole | -
threatened area at 5,000,000, Such
calculations lie for the moment be-
yond the range of criticism. , But
they ~make us. realize, what for
some. years we have béen allowed to
forget, that widespread scarcity forms
a contingency with which the Indian
government must constantly prepare
fo reckon. : os
oIt is exactly 30 years ago since the
Bengal famine of 1866.radely awak-
ened the British conscience to the dark-
er side of our progress in India. That
progress, whether gauged by. the in-
crease of the people or the educational
influences which have been brought to
bear upon them, is one of the most: won-
derful facts in the history of the world
during the present century. But it is
a triumph of British administration for
which the Indian peasant has at inter-
vals to pay a terrible price. We have
removed the old Asiatic check upon the
population by more rapid stages than
we have created the modern European
safeguards against the results of its
accelerated growth.
checks upon the Indian population
were the sword, pestilence and famine.
The sword has ceased out of the land;
pestilence is encountered by a vast sys-
tem of medical aid; famine is mitigated
by an equally vast system of relief,
But as famine, in the appalling sense of
the word, has become rarer, partial
scarcities has grown more frequent,
Throughout large areas of India the |:
pressure of' the people on the soil is
so intense that even a partial failure
of the crops means severe suffering
