AFGHAN is A FIGHTING MAN.
Peculiarities of the Army Created BY
Abdurrah m.

Abdurrahm
The Afghan Is essentially a fighting
man, says the London Times, and,
though the army which Abdurrahman
created has, in the main. so far made
for peace by securing the internal
tranquility Of Afghanistan, even the
old ameer discovered in the latter part
Of his reign that il was necessary to
keep 1t occupied, but that it was not
easy to find suitable occupation for it.
The discipline of standing army in
such country as Afghanstan is apt
to get lax in the idle times of peace.
Under an oriental military despotisn
the army exists for active fighting.
and all Its instincts rebel aga .nst long
periods of inaction. 1t wants the eX-
element and. above all. the OppOrtuni-
ties of individual ACKNOWLEDGMENT and
enrichment which active service alone
furnishes. For long time Abdurrah-
man kept his army fairly well occu-
pied In putting down all his own
rivals and subjugating the tribes
whose loyalty he had cause to suspect.
When that was accomplished Katrs-
tan. with its pagan" tribes, offered
another outlet for the martial energies
of the Afghan Mussulmans.
But in proportion as the successive
delimitati0ns of boundaries ard
spheres Of influence have diminisht d
the area of doubtful ownership with
In which the military appetite of the
Afghan commanders could be graft
fed without any serious risk of exter-
nal complications. the task of provid-
ing occupation for the Afghan army
has become more ard more difficult,
and with the maintenance of internal
peace that difficulty must go on in
creasing.
The sops which IIabibullah has from
time to time thrown to his army in the
shape Of increased pay ard impiO d
rations show that he himself is alive
to the difficulty, but measures of that
kind can hardly be regarded as more
than temporary makeshifts. One is
bound to bear in mind in this come =
ton that the fighting ins incts of the
Afghan have always prompted HIN in
the past to look toward the south
rather than the north The plains Of
India, which his fathers repeatedly
ransacked. are still to him the leg
endary land Of conquest. and booty,
and If once he came to believe that
the English We're powerless to arrest
the forces of Russian gravitation. he
might well be tempted by prospect of
such stakes as Russia would spread
before him to exchange a | sing for .
winning partner

are young childrn, who require "A rep
rimand occasionally for carelessness,
but l am speaking of those homes
where the girls and boys are we'll into
their teens. Sad Is that house and
wrong Is that parent, either father or
mother, who chooses the hour when all
are assembled round the table to men
ton some alf-forgotten grievance or
to find some fault.
If any trivial thing has been done
wrong, or any duty omitted wait until
after dinner or tea Is over before you
scold, blame or reprimand. Let the
food which God gives us for the pur-
pose of nourlshing and sustaining our
bodies have the opportunity of accom-
plishing that end, which cannot be the
case if every mouthful Is swallowed
with either sarcastic word or an I'M
complimentary remark. More indiges-
ton, nervousness and other derange-
uents are caused by the too common
fault of uncomfortable meal times
than many people would suppose, and
it is our positive duty. which we should
all try to remember, to make those
hours Of the day cheerful and agree
able to the children, and to set them an
example which you would be the first
to notice and approve in others.-The
Scotsman.
