{ UST now, BY ADMIRAL THE BEE: SIR EDWARD SEYMOUR while the King and Kaiser are eyeing each other suspi- iously, while feverishly preparing for war and denying its possi- bility (just as Japan did), any expression from one of their chief fighters is of tremendous moment. In the Holiday COSMOPOLITAN Admiral Seymour discusses the problem in all its possibilities and prospects, incidentally throwing new light on the blunder of Dreadnought construction—its limited capacity, docking demands, heavy salvage, etc., and between the submarine below and the airship above, he sers the big ship’s doom. He treats the development of the superior British Navy from its establishment in the Dutch and French wars'to its present jeopardized su- premacy. He dismisses the aeroplane, but sees dire possibilities in the Zeppelin Dreadnought of the air. With great acumen he goes inm.the question of disarmament, etc., in the light of “human nature and its innate savagery, and thinks one more great war will not bring universal peace. This is an article every one should read who keeps in touch with the History4making crises of the world, and is only one of the many exceptional articles which make Holi- day Cosmopolitan the leader of the season.

He also eriticised the lack of empleyment or the useless trades taught priseners as a rule, and advocated that they be taught some useful trade thet they might turn to ac- count when they were discharged.
