II Is q barb-arous suggestion, but all
war Is cruel, and whilo we wait for tho
universal peace society to abolislrit. the
nations are busy searching out inycn-
tons which will make weapons still
moro destructive. Tho barbod wiro
idea, drawn from purely American in.
vcnticn, IS ono which can be utilized TO

The idea Is IN briof that barhod wire

Ing party. Say fort is situated upon
nm elevation. Ia wooded districts ia
timo Of war the soldiers arc set at once
10 building an abntis. Trees and sap
plings are cut down, tho branches cut
of, sharponed and placed, the sharpened
end outward, closely interviewer all
around tho fort. This sort Of abatis
was used ages ago, In tho time Of the
Gauls mud Britons, and Il has never been
improved on since. Sometimes II keeps
out an assaultIng party, oftcncr It does
not In the frenzy Of hattie soldiers
climb inadly over the piercing points
aud never know what they arc doing.
But tho harbed wire ahatis--that Is
the thing, Tho wire can ho loaded into
army transportation wagons and CON
ycycd from one point 10 another with
comparative ease. Whore there was no
timber IL would serve to mako tho only
available abatls, Three or four strings
Of a strongly built barbod wire fence,
one inside tho ether, would keep the
army Of Germany itself ont Of a fort.
Thcro would be no way to get inside tho
strings Of wire except By cutting tho
wires. Then they would curl aud tam
gle about the atorming party's feet like
eerponts around u victim Of delirium

With this limo Of dcfenscs across her

two countries could shake hands and he

could stand stand up under tho deadly
fire that would be brought to bear upon
