Ct'KRKITT .VOTES. WUile no one dsnlrs that the rlgh' of residing iu part* of China ha* been con- eeJeit by treaty to Christian mission - r .-. -.r i Ii it all violations of that right ought to be punished, the belief is ipreading among well-informed men that the attempt to convert the civil- ised peoples of Indii. China. Japan, and Kg pi is of douhtful expediency. The sipml nhange which baa come over in- telligent ojiinii'ii with regard to this mallei was brought out recently at the meeting of the anthropological section of the British AasociUion. when almost all the scientist* and men of practical experience in the Bast, who took part in deliate, concurred with Prof. Flinders Petrie in deprecating efforts to impose idea* peculiar to our own race, age. or cit ili/a'ion upon countries which on dif- ferent line* have alieady made consider- able progress in culture. Lord Stanmore. for Instance, better known as Sir Arthur Gordon, a colonial administrator of vast experience, ex- pressed s conviction that a* tnuch wrong ha* been inflicted by a desire to carry out civilizing ideas a* by vio- lence. It was a mistake, he said, to regard the seiui-civilized races as im- moral ; their moral sense is very un- like our own, but il is none the less real. As to the attitude to be assumed toward the social usages and fieculiar habits of the natives of a given country. Lord Stanmore, of course, conceded that certain customs, such a* cannibalism, infanticide, widow burning, and the wholesale plundering of inferior* by local chiefs, must be put an end to i once and firmly. But it would be well, be thought, to permit the oontinu- ince of many usage* repugnant and tven repulsive to European idea*. In luch matter* be would truat to the transforming influence of time. Herein ae cordially agreed with Prof. Petrie, who bad reminde.l his hearers that Paul f Tarsus did not deam it needful, any more than did Kpictetus, to prohibit slavery, polygamy, or even gladiatorial ahowa. The elimination of *uch evils w*a left to be brought about, a* it was I. rought about, by the growing enlight- enment and energy of the public con- science. To much the same purpose spoke Dr. dm. long connected with the Indian cavil service. He denounced the con- tinual attempts of Kuro|iean* to uproot ancient civilizuti UN not inferior in some ways to their own. and to destroy cus- toms which are not contrary to moral law. He implored missionaries to he more tolerant toward native ideas and usages, and to do Christian things in a Christian way. A long experience in India bad convinced Dr. Cust that the wisest plan is not to interfere in things that are not unlawful, and not to fy \nglicize the people of that country. II . . i.-idercd it absurd for missionaries . ; to alter the marriage custom* of a j> . >le which only tolerate* divorce in I he cine of European*, and to dictate to natives naturally sober, far more rate, indeed, than Englishmen, a* 'o \\t,it they should eat and drink. He .mull! even go so far as to protect the peooh- ..' India, China, and Japan from preachers who intrude where they are not uantcil. II" m. ni inned the m- i' men of a missionary in China who er.-c'i'd a building under circumstances w h ch m.ide ihe art a desecration, and in view of such performances be was not surprised that from time to time the Chinese rose against the "foreign devils " fn closing. Dr. Cust referred to th Ktcreligioun act committed in India )>v a Wesleyan, by whom a chapel was luiill on the edge of a sacred tank. but who was forced by T.ord Canning to raze the structure to the ground. Dr. H. O Forbes and Prof. Haddon. bn'h of whom have lived in New Guinea, we.it furt hnr, and objected to the meth- ods followed hy most missionaries in deilinq* even with savage tribes. Dr. Forhe thought the Papuan* should be left alnne to adopt civilization in their own time. He said that, so far as his observation of missionary work went, ' fh- art nil religious change that took place in a converted native was extrem- elv smill. and sometim-.i disadvantage- ous. MS natives who went to chapel IrmusrM themselves better than others, and berime insubordinate. Prof. Had- don siid that the desire of the mission- aries seorned to be to crush natives in a prorriistean bed : they forget that flic onlv lasting civilization is that which springs from below. He added that not a few good people confuse clothing with morality, and that if the purpose was to extend the market for rmt'in goods, it should be carried out openly and honestly, not under the pre- teni-e of promoting religion. English- men the Professor said in conclusion. do not, theoretically, wish to extermi- nate native races, but as a matter of fart they do so. and what has happened In Tasmania, where not single native durvivejt, is likely to happen elsewhere In the islands of the South flea.

Queer Effect of Light It i* asserted by one of the leading authorities on light and beat that the lieauis nf the sun and moon have a very deleterious effect upon all kinds of edged tool*. An exposure of a few hours to sunlight will " turn " the edge of the best razor ever made, and one night's exposure to the rays of the full moon will ruin such an instrument for- ever. Similar exposure to ligbt will finally apoil knives, scythes and sicklea, the premonitory aigns of coming use- lensness being noted in the blue color which the metal aatturnes. When the edge of such tools once disappears aa t result of continued exposure to the light of either the sun or the moon, they are absolutely uncles* until they have been reteutsered. Because of this peculiar action of light on steel purchaser* .should always be on their guard against buying from peddlar* who carry their wares exposed, or from retail dealers who have such tools on display in show windows. especially if such windows tie located so that the; receive the full glare of the sun or moon at any time of the day or night. The unaervtceableness of tools acquired under such ciicuiusinnces i* generally wrongfully attributed to bad material or inferior workmanship.
