COMPARATIVE CosT OF EDUCATION
AND WAR.--A paper las been prepared
by Leon Donnat, of Brussels, member
of several learned academies, which
shows the comparative cost of educa-
ton in different countries. The annual
cost of primary education for each in
habitant of the United States, according
to Nj. Donnat, is S218, and the annual
expense for war purposes for each in
habitant is S1.50. Prussia, education,
50 cents; war, S2.4S. Saxony, rs cts.
war, S243. Bavaria, 81 cts; war,
S2.4S. Wurtemburg, 40 cts; war,

cts; war, S10S. This table shows that
when $1005 is spent for education,
$42.09 is consumed for war purposes
a fact which, to many people, will be
entirely new.
