The intensely religious spirit of

IN Japan is founded upon the relig-

anese wanders from home, his relig-
ious spirit goes with him. In his Ian
guage are no terms of profanity.
Everywhere he believes the spirits of
departed friends hover over him.
This constant association with the
spirit world intensifies the religious
fervor. until in the acme of patriot
ism, it becomes a frenzy and accounts
for the startling fearlessness of Jap
anese troops. Lafcadio Hearn, the
English author. who spent 25 years in
Japan studying her religion. says:

Because the American navy COM
prises but half as many officers and
men as the English. French and Ger
man navies, the friends Of imperial
ism are demanding an increase of the
force of both officers and men. The
American navy comprises 1896 offic-
ers and 1891 enlisted men. 1t is
recommended that the number of
lieutenants be increased from 500 TO
$50 and the number OF lieutenant
commanders from zoe to 800. This
is natural result of the war policy
which seeks TO initiate the European
governments. The money needed TO
pay these idle officers could be prof
itabiy employed in supplying federal
buildings for the progressive cities of
the United States. instead of renting
any available old quarters for post
offices. The treasury deficit for the
past year is now s27,OOO.OoO, and the
reserve fund must be
drawn upon to meet the tremendous
running expenses of the government.
No further increase of the military
expenses should be made now. The
declared intention of Mr.. Roosevelt TO
build the biggest battleship on earth.
to cost over 100000 should he
abandoned. a little homely economy.
however tame and commonplace ii
may seem, will be needed TO prop up
the country for the next few years
1t is about time for the periodical
panic.

WAR AND PEACE.

War. if you will,
For those that ask it. let them have
their fill
But must the peasants go
So far away from home across the
snow
To perish in a land
Whose very name they hardly know
And for cause they cannot under
stand?
Have they no wives
And helpless little ones who need
their lives?
Are they not dear to Christ
These simple multitudes SO cheapIy
priced?
Earth is so wide, and they
For whom a narrow home sufficed
Must they be sent to die so far away ?

HOPES REALIZED.

That tells the tale of that golden age
When all the clouds that crossed the
blue
Were phantom ships in Fancy's
fleet
To carry my hopes that were good and
truee
To the land of fulfilment, and joys
complete.
Some of the ships We're tempest tossed
Wrecked on the seas. and my hopes
were lost,
But many a ship that sailed away
Carried its cargo across the sea
And landed it safely in Happiness Bay
Where fame and fortune awaited
me.
