I hereby certify that I have taken samples of every vatting of Mackie's White Horse Celler Blend of Scotch Whisky used
in bottling during the month of September, and the results of my analyses
indicate that it conforms to the standard for Pot Still Scotch Whisky set up

excellent quality and flavour, which has been well matured in wood.

GERMANY AND PRUSSIA. Considerable interest has been aroused in Germany by an article, which has lately appeared in an important German magazine containing a criticism of the state of Germany with special reference to the predominance of Prussia, Germany has nothing to fear from internal dissensions. She is united and will remain united. But she has much to gain from the free discussion of her own affairs and conditions, and has suffered from the tendeney, which has long been marked, of ber writers and instructors to busy themselves and their readers rather with the affairs of other countries than with those of Germany. A sore point with some of the Germans is the preeminence or predominance of Prussia, says the "Morning Post" though it has arisen nator ally enough from the course of events by which Germany became united. Prossin is not and never was a nation; the name stands first for a province, then for a dynasty, and then for a State the creation of that dynasty. But it is the dynasty and the State that united Germany and has in that way won its place at her head. The Prussian tradition has stamped itself on German history. But this same tradition isin many respecta alien to Germany at large and by no means acceptable to the people of an or parts of the Empire. The Prossian state was mad by the House of Hohenzollern, who, starting as Margraves of Brandenburg, obtained a Pro sian province and spent the time between the Reformation and the Revolution in trying to raise their monarchy into a Great Power Frederic the Great found himself as a young man left as an absolute monarch with a welldrilled army, an obedient bureaucracy, and his own ambition. He had a certain claim to the province of Silesis, at that time in Austrian possession, and he took his opportunity to invade and seize that province, which he was able to keep during the series of wars into which its occupation led him. He managed also to obtain a share of Poland, and his successors of the revolutionary erafwere mainly preoccupied with the effort to obtain more territory-at one time in Poland, at another in Hanover-until in the struggle against Napoleon Prussis was crushed and reduced to a small ares between the Elbe and the Baltio. The Prussia of those days had prodaoed no great man except Frederio the Great, but as the rest of Germany was under French protection the patriots looked to Prussis whose Princes were very glad to enlist such talents as they could into their service. The Steins, Scharnhorsts and other great men who made the Prussia of 1818 were Germans but for the most part not Prussians. Even Moltke, though a German, was not a Prussian by birth. The country was despotically governed until 1848, when in the terror caused by the Revoluion. Hence. The Germans, therefore, have no neer! to go abroad, nor even outside of Prussia, for model of the qualities that all the world loves There is, however, something more than the distinction between Prussian hardness and South German softness at the bottom of the South German dissatisfaction, Germany fifty years ago was democratic in spirit. Prussia, except as regards a part of its urban population is dominated by the spirit of aristocracy or caste. The domestio strife of Germany will for a long time be between the tradition of the Prussian squires and that of the Radicals of the South-West. It is not a geographical conflict, but the types have local associations dating from the middle of the last century. The feeling is widespread that the Empire under Prossian guidance is imbued with more than a due share of the Prussian spirit, and that the Empire tends to develop more than it should along the old automatio lines and fails to assimilate what was best in the national democratic movement of sixty years ago. Perhaps both elements are needed for a full development of German national life.

The Savoy Palace Hotel, which re-opened on the first of last month, har, during the idle season, undergone several improveinenta and its patronage during the coming winter promises to be very extensive. The hotel has many advance booking, which is a good augury for a big season, and already its rooms have been fully occupied by Anglo-Egyptians retuming from leave. We ar glad to note that the management of the hotel has devolved upon Mr. George Brey, already well-known to the clients of the Savoy Hotel at Assouan and the Bristol Hotel Cairo, and we feel sore that under his able direction the progress made by the hotel will be pro portionate to the comfort offered to intending clients and the sumptuonsness of the building. The enisine of this hotel cannot be excelled, its service is all that could be desired, and there is very reason to consider that, though yet in its infaney, its success is asured.

capitals of the Western world, the usoal recep tion was held this morning at Ras el Tin palace, when his Highness received the congratula tions of state officials and civilian notabilities. The reception was more numerously attended than ever, and the homage paid to the ruler of Egypt was fully equal to the graciousness with which he greeted his subjects. From eighto'clock of carriages driving towards Ras el-Tin with frock coated and silk-batted notabilities, not to mention the uniformed diplomats, etc., attracted the attention of the general populace, And the decorations of the main streets, which were especially general and more than usually lavish, bore testimony to the fact that the Khedive was at home.
Princes, Ministers, Advisers, Under Secre taries of State, higher officials of the various ministries, the Clergy, officers of the Egyptian Army and Army of Occupation, civilian notabi lities were all received with a hearty welcome by his Highness, and with many of those who attended his reception he conversed for several minutes. Cairo and the provinces were represent ed in large numbers
"A gentleman who holds an official position in Egypt" recently made the following state ment, says the "Daily Graphic": -
"The Egyptian soilis becoming impoverished. In olden days the land during high Nile received that deposit of mud which gave it a new lease of life rendering the application of of a fertiliser less necessary than at present. Systems of irrigation and damming are alter ing all this. Summer crops are grown. Acoordingly more is taken out of the land, while at the same time it receives less. Egypt has no natural manure to give to the land. What manure there is is used for fuel, for which purpose it is not only cheap, but its peculiarproperties make it very suitable. Tbere is, however, a substance which for ages has been used as a fertiliser. It is found in little heaps and hills and is the residue of the clay and straw composition which the Jews used in making bricks. This substance, known as confri, is exceedingly rich in ammonia. In the past there seemed an almost unlimited supply of it, but it is clear now that it is becoming exhausted. The best hills are being used up, and the fellah has to go further afield for his supply. There is no hope, therefore, that confri will provide the fertiliser for which soon there will be a very great demand."
A large area of land in Figypt, about midway between Assuan and Ecko, and consisting of some 12.000 acres i mider preparation for irrigation and in order to carry out the proat it has been necessary to construct a steel canal of nearly a mile in length. The east bank of the Nile at Kom Ombo is too low to allow of the land being irrigated at floodtide in the usual manner, and in vier to obtain an adequate supply it was necessary to put down sets of powerful and specially designed pumps. These pumps lift the water throngh suction mains 64 tt, in diameter, and discharge it into riveted steel rising mains of the same capacity, which in their turn deliver the water into a service reservoir. A large steel canal starts from this service reservoir, and delivers the water into distributing earth canals or culverts, from which it flows on to the land. The lift of the pumps is from 16 to 22 yards, and the top of the reservoir wall is 115 yards above sea level at Alexandria. The canal is composed of riveted steel, the plates being 1/4 in. thick. It is nearly semi-circular in form, 6 1/2 yards in diameter, with 20-in. straight sides; being. therefore, at the top, nearly 19ft. deep. It is subdivided into seventeen sections, averaging nearly 105 yard each. This was done in order to allow for expansion and contraction, the sections being connected by masonry basins and packed expansion joints. Timber cradles were placed about 30 ft. apart, to keep the bottom level, and props to prevent the sides from dropping out of shape. Great difficulty was experienced in preventing the sections from falling out of level, owing to the sand forming the foundations being blown from underneath by the wind and also much difficulty, due to the onequal expansion of the steel plates on the sunny side.
LONDON, October 4.
Ahmed Djelall Eddin Pasha, former confidant of the Sultan now in Cairo, in a letter to the Times" was the Porte that if the intolerable abuses under which Turks as well as Christians in Turkey are suffering are not remedied the Turks may have recourse to extreme violence
Ahmed Djelall Eddin declares that bitter experience shows that a second reign like the Sultan's is an impossibility in Turkey. He refers to the possibility of the proclamation of an Arab Empire in Mecor which wonld be supported by the whole of Islam. (Renster)
General Ahmed Djelalleddin Pasha, the brother-in-law of Prince Omar Pasha Toussoon and Prince Djemil Pasha Toussoun, has been a well-known figure in Cairo for the past few years. His wife died a few years ago and was buried in the Mosque of Nebi Daniel at Alex andris. Since her death her husband, who for more than ten years was the most powerful and honorable of the Sultan's advisers, has resided in Egypt and resisted all the blandishmerits of the Sublime Porte to induce him to go back to Stambonl.
An Eaglishman, who knew the Pasha at Constantinople, thus describes him :.
Djellaleddin Pasha was for years foremost and prime favorite among all the Sultan's subjects, and fully deserved the trust reposed in him as an honorableand upright gentleman. His dow.all, therefore, camem a shock to all who knew him, the greater, perhaps for that the re port added that he bad been denounced by the Seerat Police of the Palace, a force which he himselt created and organised, and of which, among many offices, he was been the working chiet. A remarkable and singularly fascinating personality, Ahmed Pasha's most alient quality was ever an absolutely whole hearted devotion to his master and wheu at last the eneinies who ever dog the footsteps of Royal favorites succeeded inalienating from him Abdul Hamid's confidence and affection, the cir cumstance was received as indicating a further sinister advance in the progress of that be setting "manie de la persécution" which has for years haunted the gloomy potentate of Yildiz During his long term of honored ser vice Ahmed Pasha enjoyed an absolutely unique position in the Yildiz set. Privileges have been his which no other Turkish funer tionary would have dared to solieit. Of late yerrs, for instance, social communion between setting "manie de la persécution" which has for years haunted the gloomy potentate of Yildiz During his long term of honored ser vice Ahmed Pasha enjoyed an absolutely unique position in the Yildiz set. Privileges have been his which no other Turkish fune tionary would have dared to solicit. Of late years, for instance, social communion between Turks and Europeans in the capital has been tacitly, and in some cases openly, probibited. Yet Ahmed was a prominent member of the "English" elnb, and to which practically all the English colony belongs in common with the chief members of other Eeropean com monities. Almost every day, indeed, Fridays excepted, during the many years I knew him, Ahmed Pasha took his place at the Bridge table--for Bridge was popular in Constantinople long before it was heard of in Europe, and it may be said that he is both a fine player and a good loser. It has often been suggested that this licensed association with Europeana was not wholly foreign to his functions as chiet of the Secret Police. As to this, how ever, it may be said that all who have known the Pasha were penetrated with the sense of his complete honorability. In proof of this is the fact that when Abdnl Hamid sought to end his differences with the chiefs in Paris of the "Young Turkey" party he employed in vain one intermediary after another until it was intimated to bim that the ses vices of Ahmed Djellaleddin as envity would procure the desired result. The Pasha, there. fore, was sent to Paris and on his representa tions the "Young Turkey" leaders complied
It is noteworthy in this cunnection that Ahmed's influence with his master has sofficed to assure to them the immunity that he promised. It is within my knowledge that on several nocasions he has been urged to diverge from this line of conduct, and that at the risk of that loss of favor which has now overtaken him be invariably refused to put his hand to any unworthy action. Oddly enough, until now this inflexibility has served rather than injured him in his master's eyes : for the Sultan, though reely using spies and traitors, has a wholesome contempt for such gentry. Covered with honors, only before his fall from favor recentiy, indeed, the Sultan bestowed on him the last and highest decoration in his gift.
"Al Moayad" complain's that nothing has been Hone to remedy the position of the officials and quotes Sfr Vincent Corbett's statements of the 14th December 1905, who then declared that :
As has already been stated, the budget for 1906 includes a sum of no less than L.B. 120,000 for the improvement in the salaries of the cadre officials, which for Tensons given above have diminished in purchasing power to a distressing extent. In the case of the minor officials their pay no longer constitutes a living wage, and when vacancies occur no candidates are fortbeoming to fill them etc. etc...... and it is hoped that a month or two will soffice to rearrange the system on a sounder basis, sucb Terringement to have

A correspondent writes T50 very recently the French Governments action in Morocco AS the object of the severest criticism in the Nationalist Press, and more especially in the organ of the self-styled obief of the Nationalist movement which made a point of exaggerating the damage done by the bombardment of Casablanes, of criticising the attitude of the French Government during the Algeciras conferer.ce and its Moroccan policy during the last twelve month, and of quoting from every toreign journal which had shown any hostility to France, stories which, as a correspondent of a London paper recently remarked, were calculated to spread the belief that the violation of women, the massacre of unoffending Jews and Moslems and the pillage of the town were the work not of the tribes but of General Drude's soldiers. Despite this hostility the French Press continued to publish the effusions of the angrateful Kamel and certain Parisian organs, while anxiously protesting that France had no intention of committing any action that might be constructed by England as a breach of the Anglo Prench Agreement of 1904, suggested that British statesmen might listen to the pleadings of the "sportsman" of the Egyptian patriots. Now a rumour is going round the Cairo cafés to the effect that the "Sllustrious Karamel" of M. G. Vayssié, or the "sincere patriot" of Mme. Juliette Adam has obtained financial support, not of course from the French Government, but from individuals in France who conceive that their interests will thus be furthered, though we fail to see how) by aiding the Pasha's journalistie ventures. This assistance is said to have been given on the condition that the Mustaphist organs should abandon their pro Moroccan Campaign. Such is the story which in my opinion must be swallowed with more than one grain of salt. But whatever the canse it is certainly A ouridus fact that the extreme nationalists should have abandoned their co-religionists for whom they were prepared to sbed their ink in torrents, without any explanation, and that the French Press shonld at the same time unite in giving sneh an excel lent advertisement to their leader.
PORT SAID The branch of the Anglo-Egyptian Bank for some years established at Port Said has now moved into its new and more commodious premises in the Shareh Kasr el Nil. The building, the upper floor and street arcading of which are not yet finished, is built of the small, hard, red bricks wade at Marseilles, relieved with cement stone dressings. The columns of the areading are of blue and white marble from the Marmor Company's quarries in Greece. The sanitary fittings are supplied by Doulton & Co., the safe room by Milner, the locks by Chubh and the fittings of the Bank, to replace the present temporary ones will be supplied by the Shannon Company. The contractor for the Bank is M A De Parro, of Cairo. Messrs. Cook & Son sappiied the cast iron work. The new premises at Tantah will be occupied in a few days. This building is built of local red brick with dressings of grey Doulting stone quarried and worked in Somerset shire. The fittings, stone, marble were supplied by the same firms as for the Port Said work, the contractor being M. Selim Tehan. The architect for both buildings is Mr. Robert Williams, P.R.I.B.A,
The late F. Du Pre Thornton's Elementary Arabic: a Grammar,' based upon Wright's well-known grammar, and published in 1905, was so well received by students that he at once set to work upon an Elementary Arabic First Reading Book, and 30 nearly completed it before his death that its editor, Mr. R A. Nicholson, had little more to do than to complete the glossary and revise the proofs. It is now issued by the Cambridge University Press, printed for the most part from Lane's Arabic type, which has the merits of cleatness and compactness; and the little book appears to us well adapted to its purpose. It is largely 8 reprint of Wright's 'Arabie Reading Book,' which has long been out of print ; but Wright's text has been amended, partly by his own corrections and partly by the critical revision of Prof. de Goeje and the present editor. Some of the selections offer difficulties which seem rather baffling to beginners, but there are not many which cannot be overcome by the use of the careful glossary, which is a model of what A glossary should be complete, coneixe, and accurate. The extracts from the Koran are perbaps over short, and we should have liked to see some of the early impassioned Mekks Surahs included, but the elaborate 'Gramma matical Analysis' occupying 77 pages, of the whole of the Koran extracts is an admirable feature, with its full parsing and explanations and its precise references to the Grammar.' The Preface repeats some useful advice to students previously given in the "Grammar, but we cannot refrain from expressing our satisfaction that Mr. Thornton did not extend his activities to å treatise on Boglish. The following is hardly a model of lucid style : "During one among many instructive con versations, he told me in 1880 tbat Hebraists who had incurred the like entanglement, invariably tried to set themselves free on hearing the korin recited by Moslems (Mahometans); and through learning to do likewise endeavour, more wily than in any other way, to prono once distinctly and well the difficult consonants of Hebrew at well as of Arabio."
There has been an appreciable increase be tween the figure for last July and this one. Last year the total value of imports amounted to LB 1,786,070, while this year the figures are given at LB. 2,146,476, being an increase of LE. 860,000.
Brae oopper, and bronzo good
The total clearances come to LE 26,000, against LE. 19,600, the corresponding month last year. Great Britain takes the bulk.
Coal.
The importation of coal shows a very large increase the amount being of a value LE 35,000 last July, while we now note the figures to have risen to just under LE 900,000, all of which comes from Great Britain.
Coffee
LE 28,000 was the value the same month 1906 ; this year it is LE. 14,000. The bulk come from Amerion, and a smaller amount from Turkey, who between them have the entire trade.
Flour
The figures are very steady here LE. 102,000 against LE 98,000 last year. France takes LR. 67,000
Furniture
It is interesting to note Great Britain is getting a larger share of this trade, as has been expected of late. It is instructive to see that the French trade has to play second fiddle, with LE. 8,600, Great Britain being LE 19,000 while Austria has dropped to third. place, just under France.
Iron Good
The expansion continues. LE 234,000 being the present figures, 1906 having LE. 184,000. Belgium and Great Britain have almost the entire trade.
Locomotives
Last July the full amount of value of these heavy articles came to LB. 1,000 roughly. Now the figure is LE 12,000 of which Great Britain has L.E. 7,000; encouraging enough As far as these rather deceptive figures go.
Manchester Goods
The figures have dropped from L.E> 56,000 to L.E. 171,000.
Marple
The greater part of the marble comes from Italy, the full import figures being LB 10,000 (Italy LE 7000). July 1907 sw LE 6500, Great Britain sent a value of L.E. 38.
Sugar
The total is L E. 15,000 against LE, 25,000 the like month last year. It is gratifying to see the amount is not altogether confined to Austia (LE 13,800), while we remark Great Britain has sent along this commodity to the extent of LE. 9. Turkey has ventored less, and the figure L.E. 1 covers their effort.
Sheep
There is again a big rise, from L.E. 11,000 to LE. 23,000. Turkey swallows the trade.
Timber
As is natural Sweden has a large grasp, almost the monopoly. The total figures, though are steady, being LE 144,000 against the previous July's LE. 115,000.
Britain's Share
This month this tots up to 85%, which is surely satisfactory, and compares well with other months. (British Chamber of Commeme Bulletin).

The Nationalist Arabio newspapers have ot late been making capital out of the unfortunate scandals connected with this Arministration in order to cast a slur on the Englishmen, who direct it. We may mention that the officials implicated are not English men, and the Arabs, Syrians, and foreign subjects are mainly compromised. .
Grent sympathy is expressed with lewa Gedge Pasha, who only assumed temporary control a few months ago. The financial portion of the Administration was not a part of his duties and he is in no way to blame for the malpractices, which have extended over a con-siderable period of years.
It is to be hoped that in consequence of the grave charges against a number of the officials who are not Englishmen, that this Administra tion will in fature have a large increase of English officials, for it is fully recognised that if there had been a larger proportion of Englishmen among the higher grades, it would have been practically impossible for such malpractices to have occurred.

"La Revue des Deux Monde" says of the Egyptian financial trouble that it is due largely to the speculative uses to which the money (too easily lent by the banks) was put. At the beginning of this year (1907) any reflecting mind could picture the approacning tempest. From January to June forty-four now companies-nearly all English were fosted for working in Egypt. The total most being subscribed in Egypt itself--of the capital was £9,250,000, not to speak or the increases of some of the already existing companies during the nume six months. The writer, however, does mot anticipate that the depreciation in values will extend to wrhen lands throughout the country. But he dreads the possible effect on the price of cotton, which material make up 85 per cent of the exports and pags for the imports. Cotton governed the situation, and the spinners inay see in the prem ituation a chance to buy cheap. The prospects, both immediate and later of this commodity the nothing less than brilliant, as far as produetion goes. The moral is that Egypt must, like other countries have ita crises bet that its economie situation is based on cotton, the present situation of which is excellent and the future secures to production. An other view is that given by the "Semaphore" of Marseilles, which foresees only prosperity for Bgypt, dne principally to her power to buy becanse of her cotton crops. England takes balf of her cotton and France takes thirty-six million francs' worth out of the total of 411 millions, vaule of product. Germany share is thirty five millions, and so on; and what has largely contributed to further develop Egypt's production has been the marked disposition shown by the United States to mone poliseootton and manipulate the markets. The other Agrionitoral producte of Bgypt include the g ame which is becoming important Land improved t he Custos tarifs have been reduced some area free, such as coal, minerals, wood and it beeld hardly be mid that of the about 95 per cent is from England Th article is an argument in favour of schoorrale tions between Egypt And the south of Prince, and in a compliment paid to English adminis tration, which has prepared a market so worthy of other manufacturing countries attention.

"There are signs that the "Times" is recovering its position as the great pon-party jour nal of the nation," says the "British Weekly." "We do not say by any means that it is moving towards the Government of Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, but it has repentedly during the last week or two done excellent service in exposing Conservative fallacies.
"It has, for one thing, reviewed the Australian tariff, and declared it to be derisory. The general effect of the whole, it admits, is in a direction which must be detrimental to our trade. Purther: 'We fear it must be admitted, even by those who are most earnest in promoting the commercial intercourse with the Commonwealth, that the course taken by Anstralian statesmen is scarcely calculated to achieve that result.'
"With highly commendable boldness, it has pointed out in connection with the Japanese quarrel in Canada that it is to the British Government and the British exchequer that the Colonies must look for their protection. It is high time that the true relation between the Mother Country and the Colonies were frankly pointed out
"The "Times" has also spoken out on the action of the Archbishop and the Bishops on the Decensed Wife's Sister Bill-therein echoing the general feeling among laymen. It has also blown in the air the ridionlous talk about the export of coal by pointing out how absoluttely necessary this export is for British trade and commeree.
"It has administered a severe and deserved rebuke to that noisy mischief-maker, Sir Robert Bond. We believe the nation as a whole would gladly read and frequently value a great and powerful journal standing conspicuously above partisan strife, and
advocating the true interests of the nation and the Empire as a whole."
Our Parisian contemporary, the "Gaulois," thus concludes a highly appreciative article on the beneficent influence wielded by King Ed ward both at home and abroad :
The popularity of King Elward VII. has brought about this miracle, that it has rallied all the English without exception round the throne, and has led Dernocrats, and Revolutionists to abandon the fetichism of the Re publican doctrine and of manhood suffrage. Seeing that monarchical Government prodaved good results, they have not dreamt of offering it systematic opposition on account of its here. ditary origin; on the contrary, the most advanced among them proclaim that King Ed ward VII. is the best of presidents, and his monsrohy the best of Republics.

We extract the following from the latest edition of "Orient and Occident"
Our readers will remember that in a previol number we published an article under the bead of Healthy Homes." It was one of the last articles which came from the pen of our be loved departed friend, Mr. Thornton, who was greatly interested in the subject, and very much had at heart the question of the housing shd tursing of children and infants. We now Test that Dr. Abdul-Azit-Nazmi physician to the Public Wakfs, has planned the formation of a society whose aim is the protection of children from all the dangers which beset them physeally and morally. The whole plan is explained in a booklet which Dr Nazmi has recently pubHshed, and we hope that the pro ject will be greatly appreciated by parents. The proportion of careless or ignorant inothers is so high that, under the roof of thousands of houses, little infants are to be seen neglected by their ignorant mothers and left to the tender mereies of chance and environment Below is a precis of the plan and ideals of the society
Article (1). The Cairo Society for the Protection of Children aims at the following por poses :
(2) To protect infants from all the dangers that menace their health, education, and future
(3) To advertise the hygienic law. by which the health of infants may be protected and their mortality diminished and to acquaint parents with the best means which would help them in bringing up their infants and giving them a good moral and social training;
(4) To institute special cbaritable Homes for the poor children and to provide for special schools for those of them who may be blind, deaf, dumb, or sick, under the inspection of specialists and trustworthy persons of wide knowledge and capacity;
(5) To defend infants in general against the neg act of their parents or guardians, and the ill-treatment of all
(6) To institute societies, schools, and proper work shops for children exposed to moral cor ruption, and to endeavour to ameliorate their characters after leaving the Reformatory, by teaching them an honourable draft which would help them to obtain an honest livelihood
(7) To protect orphan children, and those as good as orphaned, riz., those whose parents may be in prison, exile, etc;
(8) To protect little girls from the ricious men and women who trade with women's honour and chastity.
Such is the outline of the aim of tlus society; and the means it desires to adopt for the effecting of its purposes are
(1) By inquiring into the causes of intant diseases and mortality, and nopting effective measures to abolish it:
(2) By endeavouring to instruct mothers in the principles of hygiene which must be obsery ed in the nursing of their infants, and that by publishing special books, pamphlets, articles, etc., and distributing them to the public, free, or at a trifling price;
(3) By aiding poor mothers who are their own babies and have more than two children,
(4) By granting material or moral subven tions to those who act according to the principles of the society in bringing up their children and to those who aid it in advertise ing its aims, whether by writing books ard articles or by institutions, schools and societies for the same purpose
(5) By aiding all such schools, institutions, or asylums in Egypt, whose purpose is to protect little children and teach mothers their duties towards their infants
(6 and 7) By forming special committees for the inspection of children who are exposed to sanitary, moral, or social dangers, especially those in factories and work-shops.
We heartily hope that the project of Dr: Nazmi will be realized. The subject is an im portant one, for the girls of the present are the mothers of the future, and the boys of the day are the men of the morrow; and we must bring them up after the principle of a sound mind in a sound body
It has been remarked by an English writer that the object of wars in general is to estab lish permanent pence. The war which must to day be wage must be directed against those mothers who leave their children to the mercy of circumstances. The war must go on unt permanent peace is guaranteed. The pillars of our future civilization are our little children, and in so far as we strengthen these pillars, in that measure will civilization progress and increase in stability. When we consider that the tide of babies, 80 to speak, is ever flowing, when we see the distressing con dition of the infant death rate in this country when we know that during the very moments of writing these lines scores of new babies are entering the world to wage an enequal, horrible battle with disease and death, to which many of them will miserably succumb: when all this is clear, what proof do we need to convince ourselves of the importance of this on use, and the critical position in which we stand to-day!
The baby thrives in proportion as we look after it, and according to the latent power of He with which it is endued. It is of the ut most importance, therefore, that we should look after its food, clothes, and its environment from the moment when it begins to live. Let is not deceive ourselves by saying that the mother is the best judge of how her baby is to be brought up. The great proportion of mothers totally ignore the matter, and scarcely have an idea of the hygienic principles to which they must conform in bringing up their children,
What better prof dors ed than the high rate of infant mortality to day !
The subject is by no means an exhaustible one; it needs deep study and delicate investigation, and Rep is in great needs of institutions on which the future of its sons depende But it is to those of our Readers who are parents that we address these few lines, for they are the best intermediaires between us and the mothers of Egypt. May God hasten the day when every woman shall be her own educator, and every mother shall be able to be ber own doctor and counsellor.
We hope to return to this subject another day
Where the tuml.food for the babe is not available, as is often the she, it is a matter of vital importance that thoroughly effect ive subotitaste be given. The want of this, ad the improper feeding that nevelte as a come on is the one of the mods of deathe amongst children that should have been avoid ed. Statistiga that have recently been pablished show that in England and Wales alone over 120,000 cbilden die erety year onder twelve months of age. This is deplorable fact, and the public attention that has been directed to jt should have some pretioal ontoome. This mortality is largely due to improper foeding. It is not always possible to find a sapply of pure will, and the method of feeling is often accompanied with a want of one that tells im mediately on the delieste digestive organs of the infant. A pare milk food that is nemily digested As maternal milk, and eo modified as to contain the constituents in equal proportions, is provided by the "Allenbarys" Foodia. By their time vigorous growth and health are promoted mod ne dignative troubles need be fool. The Milk Poods are made from fresh, full cream milk, and Are a modified to remove the difference between cow's milk and Woman milk, whilst the wethod of manafastare in Macho shaolately precludes all impurity. A perfectly pure produnt is thus obtained which is both parked into tins and hermetically sealed by machinery. If the "Allenberys" Milk Poods were ved in very me where maternal milk is not obtain ble, the mortality amongst infants world be rently lewened, and much of the waste of ife that now takes place annually could be voided.

Coton L'espace nous étant quelque peu mesuré au jourd'hui à cause de l'abondance des matières, nous ne nous amuserons pas à ennayer nos lecteurs par des considérations et des réflexions, comme il nous arrive de le faire parfois : nous attaquerons donc d'emblée notre sujet.
Samedi, sans le moindre motit sérieux pour la justifier, la tenue de notre marché a été ferme et la séance a fini ce jour-là en hausse de 1/8 de tallari sur la veille.
Par contre, Lundi et Mardi, ont constitne deux journées marquées par une faiblesse extrême qui nons ont fait recaler de 3/8 de tallari
Mercredi, à l'ouverture les choses s'annonçaient mal et les affaires avaient commencé sur la base de 18 11/16, quand tout à coup las spéculation à la baisse a changé d'avis et s'est mise à se racheter. Les pronostics de Price pour un borene de 65 et le rapport de Miss Giles donnant le condition de la plante comme étant de 65 1/2, venaient de l'impressionner et de l'induire à se mettre à l'abri, sauf a revenir le lendemain a position primitive. La circonstance, mise à profit par le parti haussier, noos avala le cours de 18 29/82, mais la baisse de Liverpool sur les américains vers les derniers moments nous a fait revenir à 18 25/82.
Après la cloture, l'annonce que le Bureau était de 67 7/10 a fait prévaloir l'opinion que la hausse était immanquable et cette opinion était tellement générale que les plus ardents parmi les baissiers n'osaient pas prétendre que le contraire pouvait être possible. Cependant tel a été le cas, car les dépêches nous ont anponoé hier matin une chute de 92 points tant à New York qu'New Orleans, mais il paralt que pour en arriver là il a fallu le changement de position de Price qui de haurier est devenu baissier et qui cherchait à justifier son action en se basant sur tontes sortes de calculs de moontrant nne récolte de 13.500.000 et la possibilité de 15.000.000 de balles avec des condi. tions climatériques propices.
L'effet de ces nouvelles a été de faire réac. tionner notre marché jusqu'à 18 5/8, mais ce matin la tendance a changé de nouvenu d'une façon complète, sur les informations propagées que les dégits à la récolte étaient plus sérieux qu'on ne le disait et que les Domaines de l'Etat même avaient accusé par la bonche de leur président un déficit de 1500 dans leur première cueillette. Inutile de dire que ces assertions, comme on le verra plus loin, étaient controuvées, mais en attendant elles n'en on pas moins effrayé le découvert en l'entrainant à se racheter, ce qui a eu pour conséquence de nous faire monter à 19 7/32, con maximum de la journée. Sur les réalisations toutefois, la cloture du soir a eu lieu à 19 1/32
Nous avons dit ce que pensait Price dy mapport de Washington; no Ajonterons qu'an jourd'hui il parle de prix des cents. Son opi nion vaut ce qu'elle voudrs, mais ce qui est positif c'est que les 13.300.000 Balles semblent etre le chiffre préféré de beaucoup de mai sons sérieuses, que la récolte ne saurait etre meilleure en Floride, Georgie et les 2 Carolines, qu'elle est très bonne partout ailleurs, sauf le centre et le sud du Texas, que les cultivateurs sont plus ou moins anxieux de réaliser aux prix actuels et que la file ture a l'air de persister pour le motuent dans son abstention, prétérant vivre sur ses amples réserves, invisibles pour le public, mais que l'on dit sans précédent comme importance réelle. La qualité semble tre aussi bonne en Amérique.
Notre marché de disponible a été assez actif pont absorber tout ce qui était à la vente. Sur le prix on s'est tonjours arrangé.
Comme eate thielle non finissons la se maine aver 14 le baisse sur les Mit Aflifi et 38 sur les provenances Hante Egypte. Le Joannvirh est inchangé, mais l'Abassi, tris et en male pour exécution d'engagementa pris, sepi acon l'offertion pour ainsi dire.
les exportation la sen ont fini par dépasser les protis niteinant 15276 Ballestime totalt 130 alles environ en 1906 ur la time in te
Per la s in chaine on parle deja de chitres anota il ne nous parait gute talable que le passions le total de l'an dernier pour la semaine respon dante qui était de 20 000 Billes.
Liverpool n'a pas été très propiceanxegyptiens disponibles sous le rapport des ventes, tandis que comme prix, il y a 1/8 de baisse sur le spot à la cote de 10 pence. Les futurs de leur coté finissent à 9 56 64 pour le Novembre, soit 3 64 de hausse
Les américains n'ont en un marché bien actif, et pour ce qui est des prix, le spot cloture en baisse de 7 points a la cote de 6.53, tandis que les futurs s'inscrivent en hausse de 12 et de 8 points aux ogors respectifs de 6.08 pour l'Octobre Novembre et de 5.9R pour le Janvier Février
P.8. Signalons l'enchère des Domaines qui a eu lieu hier et qui est résumée dans le tables habituel que nos lecteurs trouveront plus loin. Les prix obtenus sont réellement satisfaisanta
Mentionnons aussi à titre documentaire, le Census Bureau avec son chiffre de 1,430,000 Balles égrenées au 25 Septembre, contre 2,044,000 en 1906. On ne s'y arrête pas, paroe qu'on le dit incomplet et à cause de retard de la récolte
Les arrivages de la semaine ont été très importants, mais l'exportation a tout absorbé et la firale a été que les cours du disponible sont restés très fermer, pour finir a PT 74
En contrats, les affaires ont été insignifiantes la spéculation s'abstient presque complete. menit et c'est par les exportateurs qu'il faut aller chercher les acheteurs occasionnels, le dernier cours des 3 mois est de PT. 70 25/40
L'Angleterre est ferme et paie £7 pour l'Octobre et £ 6.18/9 ponr les 3 mois. Il y a beaucoup d'affrêtements, mais il paralt qu'il ya aussi une bonne partie de la marchandise qui part sans etre vendne. Cela n'est pas de bon augure pour le marché.

Alexandrie, le 4 Octobre
Lundi notre marché, encouragé par l'excel lente allure des valeurs égyptiennes à Londres, en particulier de la National Bank, débute ferme. Les transactions ont lieu un peu sur toute la cote, mais elles n'ont de réelle impor. tance qu'en National Bank, Delta Land et Comptoir. Ce regain d'activité et de monye ment haussier persiste jusqu'à la fin de la séance ; à ce moment une réaction se produit, qui ramène le calme et l'indécision dans la corbeille, à l'exception toutefois de la National Bank qui maintient sa remarquable avance de 2013/16 à 21 5/8.
Le lendemain la caractéristique de notre place est sensiblement la même. La constante plus value des valeurs égyptiennes au Stock Exchange entraine nessairement un mouvement local analogue, comme cela ressort da retour en vogne des titres dirigeanta, tels que la National Bank, l'Agricole, la Daire et la Del ta Light, tandis que les valeurs d'ordre inférieur, peu d'exceptions pris, sont négligées. Il ne faudrait pas se figurer pourtant que les transactions prennent une ampleur extraordinaire, ainsi que tendrait à le faire croire l'animation plus ou moins bruyante qui se manifeste de puis quelque temps dans la corbeille. Le volume des échanges, même en National Bank, qui est la favorite du jour à cause de sa banse imprévue à Londres, reste dans des litoites assez modestes. En un mot, l'allure de notre marché montre bien qu'il n'a pas encore l'élar ticité suffisante pour marcher te pair avec les cotes européennes
Mercredi la sitnation se résume en ben coup de tapage, peu d'affaires et
presqu'onanimité hauriere. Nous sommes toujours la remorque du Stock
Exchange pour nos valeurs dirigeantes, et cela se conçoit, la plus grande
partie des titras en question ayant pris cet été le chemin de londres. Même
sur les privilégiées du jour, National Bank et Nungovich Hotels, les
affaires sont très limitées. Ces derniers passent d'un coup de 14 3/4 à 16
1/2 pour finir 15 15/16, soit en plus-value de une livre un quart Plusieurs
critiquent vivement ce chauffage preinaturé, disant que si la saison des ton
ristes approche, en revanche les positions sont
Londres a continué hier de servir de pompe aspirante nos valeurs dirigeantes qui ne turellement en ont profité, tout en restant néanmoins au dessous des prix cotés au Stock Exchange. Bien que le mouvement ait été moins précis que la veille et se soit moins limité aux gros titres, ceux-ci n'en ont pas moins continué à fournir le principal contingent des transactions, qui, haton-nous de le dire, ont été clairsemées et moins importantes encore que les jours passés. C'est vers la fin de la séance qu'on a surtout remarque de la foi blesse, le début ayant été assez ferme et platot baussier. Avec un horizon aussi restreint, on conçoit facilement qu'à part les actions cotées en Europe, les autres n'aient donné lieu qu'à de très rares Anotuations indiquant en général pour les petites valeurs une légère moins value.
A part la Delta Light, nos valeurs dirigeantes ont été aujourd'hui négligées et de ce fait ont subi une depreciation. Il suffi pour cela d'un léger refroidissement de Stock Exchange. Quant l'infériorité des cours locaux en com paraison avec ceux de Londres, elle provient de la perte subie sur le change avec cette place. L'activité, qui a d'ailleurs été insigni fiante, s'est limitée aux Levico, Lunghis et fondateurs Comptoir. On attribue la reprise de Is Levico à ce que les acheteurs trouvent le prix actuel avantageux relativement au bon fonctionnement de cette société. Des échanges RANGE nombreux ont eu lien entre 16/82 et 17/89 et pour la Langhis 11/B2. On s'attendait pins ou moins à la réaction d'aujourd'hui a la suite de la hausse inente de ces jours derniers, d'autant plon qu'il faudrait à la spé culation l'appui des banques pour maintenir l'avance acquise. A remarquer un nouveau fléchissement des Nungovich qu'on avait trop poumis avant-hier. A ce propos nous devons signaler un engouement général au Caire en favent des titres de Vries et Boutigny. On voit par ce qui précédo que notre marché a été presque nul et en bois No a peu près générale sur les titres abandés On croit cependant que les valeurs dirigeanter et en particulier la National Bank, reprendront
bientit leur mouvement ascensionnel. C'est un simple espoir que nous enregistrons sans donner d'appréciation personnelle. Pour le moment, les transactions font détant et l'ensemble est franchement vendeur.
Si maintenant l'on étudie le résultat de la hoitaine, on constate que sur une soixantaine de valeurs inserites à la cote officielle de notre Bourse, 17 sont en hausse et 12 en baisse, les stres demeurant stationnaires aux Bour antérieurs. Parmi les fluctuations les plus remarquables il faut signaler la National Bank qui gagne 1 1/4 à 99 1/16, la Delta Light 1/9 10 1/2, la Daina 11/16 à 13 5/8, les Nongovich Hotels 1 3/8 1 15 1/2, la Differad Delta 1/4 a 7 3/4 et les Splendid Hotels 1/4 4 1/2, A In baisse il n'y a pas de perte sensible à signaler
En baisse encore l'Agricole de 8 3/16 à 8 5/16, la Ramleh de 4 1/2 à 4 5/8, la Behérn de 2012 à 20 5/8, l'Obligation Credit Poncier de 298 à 300 l'ancienne et de 253 254 ls Bouvelle, la Casa di Sconto do.41 à 44, l'Or dinary Khedivial Mail ds 20/9 & 217, l'Invest ment de 1/2 a 17/82, le Crédit Franco-Eryptien de 4 1/8 à 4 1/4, l'Aboukir de 27/9 a 28/8 et la Levico de 3/8 à 17:32
Les Dividendes Tramways d'Alexandrie rétrogradent, au contraire, de 296 A 990, les Marketa de 28 97/9, les lots Pares de 166 à 165, la Delta Land de 1 3/4 al 11/16, l'UE baine de 3 18/16 à 8 8/4, la part de fondateur Comptoir de 9 1 13/16, la Building Lands de 21/8 21/16, la Banque d'Orient de 191 119 1/2, l'Allotment de 9 7/16 à S.S. la Levant de 5/8 à 19/32, is part de fondateur United de 1 5/8 à 1 9/16, et l'Helosan de 1/4 à 7/82
Tontes les autres valeurs demeurent sans changements.
Il a été vendu aux enchères publiques dans le courant de la semaine, 800 actions United a 5/16, 250 à 11/32, 15 actions Ramleh à 4 Bje, 50 Karam á 11/82, 36 Obligations nouvelles Credit Fonejer Egyptien à 454, 25 Gabbani Land à 3 17/82, et 100 Daima Sanieh à 13 5/8
Nous avons déjà dit que c'est le marché de Londres qui nous a valus hausse de ces jours ci. An Stock Exchange lk Daira gagne, en effet, 5/8 18 3/4, l'Agricole 1/8 à 8 1/2, Is Natio nal Bank 1 1/8 X 22 1/4, la Delta Light 1/2 10 5/8, l'Unifite 1/2 á 102, et le Consolide UBI 89 1/2. A Paris, si l'on excepte te plus valne de 23 fr. sur l'action de Soet A4,608 et de 7 centimes sur la Rente à 94.17, les vari tions pour le reste sont insignifiantes: 1 fr. de hausse en Credit Foncier Egyptien et 1 et 2 fr. de baisse en Land Banket Banque d'A thènes aux prix respectifs de 190 et 112.
En ce qui concerne la situation financière, elle n'offre pas de surprises. Le taux privé d'escompte hausse de 3 7/8 à 4 0/0 ot le réserve de la Banque d'Angleterre est no duite de S.S. 48 7/8 0/0, contre 51 1/4 vendredi dernier. Malgré cels alle te compare avantageusement avec in proportion

Les conditions atmosphériques en Septembre ont été moins favorables aux cotonniers : dans la première quinzaine du mois, divers brouillards ont été signalés et ont causé quel ques dégâts dans la plupart des provinces de la Barse-Rrypte. Jusqu'ici le mal ne parait pas important, mais en somme la récolte ne so présente plus so an aspect aussi brillant que le mois dernier
Par la suite ARI, la fraicheur de la tem. pérature a entravé on retardé l'éclosion des noix ; toutefois, sur ce point, aussi bien que pour ce qui concerne la troisième cueillette, nos correspondants sont unanimes dire que la chaleur en Octobre pourrait remédier benu coup à cet état des choses
la première cueillette est désormais géné male ; mais dans certaines provinces elle n'est pas encore assez avancée pour permettre une appréciation complète de ses résultats, on les considere cependant comme quantité supé rieurs à ceux de l'année dernière
On signale dans quelques localités de la Garbieh la présence des vers dans les noix de la troisième cueillette. Le rendement à l'égrenage est de 1.2% supérieur à celui de l'année passée à la même époque. Tout considéré et dans l'ensemble, les pro babilités indiquent une récolte dépassant celle de 1906-1907 De la Haute-Egypte, les rapports continuent à être exceptionnellement satisfaisants.
