PULLING DOWN THE HEROES.

The moment a hero appears and
wins mems hearts they set about kill
ing him. II he is soldier or sailor
they dover him with bull pups and
buy houses for him, and then turn and
rend him when he disposes of them.
They set banquets in his honor and
compel him to talk at them, and then
cry him down as a tiresome after
dinner speaker. They nickname him
the Just" and then ostracise him be.

In sheer perversity they unearth a tin
soldier and hail him as "a bigger man
than old Grant" Or they family
damn their idol as "a good old has
been" For bis fame 1t were better
often that the man who has deserved
well of all men should die while his
deserts are green upon him. When
you have been made legendary during
your life there is really nothing left
for you to do but become a veritable
legend by quitting it.-New York Mail.

RULERS AND THE GAME OF WAR.

But wars game which, were
their subjects wise, kings would not
play at"
This is as true to-day as when Cow
per wrote it. Unhappily the world
seems not to have become wiser by
experience.
Half million men are almost wan
tonly sacrificing their lives on Man
churian battlefields at the bidding of
two emperors.
Russia is borrowing another $751;
100000 Japan is mortgaging her
future to carry on the war. For the
next half century the people of both
countries will be taxed to pay the bill.
Who is to profit by this enormous
sacrifice of life and treasure? What
is to be gained by bringing hordes of
human beings together for mutual
slaughter?
Nineteen centuries have elapsed
since the Master preached the Cos
pei of Peace on the Galilean slopes.
but the human race is still at the
mercy of its savage passions.
When will the subjects of kings
grow wise and refuse to play in the
game of their masters Chicago

COURAGE IN WAR.

In the great naval battles that have
occurred in the east, as in the great
land battles, no doubt the Russians
died game. So did the Japanese, SO
do the common soldiers and sailors of
many semi-civilized and many bar
barian peoples. No people in the
world meet death with more noncha-
lance. or 2more grim stoicism than
the Turks or our North American In
dians. To die recklessly in battle is
a common trait, and argues no special
nobility of character. Least of all
does it give any indication of the
righteousness of cause, or posses
sion of the traits that make for the
glory of a nation in peace. To have
bulldogs fearless pugnacity does
not demonstrate the possession of
Christian, or even of moral virtues.
Bad men have 1t in common with the
best men.-Boston Herald.

THE ApuLTERATEp FOOD PAIL.

In the stomach lies the weakness
or strength Of nation. 1t is the
power house in which energy Is gen
Grated for the whole system. and its
value as such is too lightly regarded
by the average dweller in great city.
Poor abused, overtaxed and neglected
stomach. very often the victim OF UNI
hygienie cooking at home and the In
digestible blight of the average res
taurant outside! Added to this, the
domestic and foreign adulteration of
foods has reached such alarming pro
portions that the government has
stepped in to do what it can toward
safeguarding the national stomach.
1t will be cheering news to every
devoted housewife and every patient
husband TO learn that the department
of agriculture will establish in this
and other cities stations for examin-
ing imported foods and detecting adul-
terations. Already 1t has been discov-
cred that the generously distended
and succulent imported frankfurter is
made of horsefiesh of decidedly sus-
picious quality Other impositions
equally bad have been brought to
light. Choice pate de foie gras. for
instance, proves to be only poor veal
so doctored as to deceive the I'M
sophisticated palate.
And yet this nation does not make
staple food of sausages or pate de foie
gras; but the danger and the fraud
of the thing are no less diminished.
Nor does all the danger threaten from
abroad. 1t has been discovered that
home manufacturers are not blame
less, and that even in little things like
pepper. salt, coffee, sugar and spices
authorizations are carried on to an
amazing extent Even the field Of the
Industrious bee is invaded, and tons
of spurious honey are turned out each
year.-New York Evening Telegram.

THE END OF ARMIES.

We may be on the verge of the mil

come to the conclusion that it will
soon be possible to destroy armies by

shocks can be transmitted through the
air with moderate currents.
This great experimenter concludes
that the energy of 1000 horse power,

Guilty which he believes will soon be

OPPORTUNITIES FOR pAlRYMEN.

Last year England imported PIG, 900
tons of butter. The United States ex.
ported about 1000 tons. These facts
leave fair inference that England
offers an open market for more than
fifty times as much butter as we are
in the habit of exporting. Englands

countries and from her colonies

year about 10000 tons of cheese. Our
total exports were in the vicinity of
5000 tons, worth about $3.50. 900
Canada, whom we are prone to regard
as an economic inferior, exported ten
times as much as we did. This leaves
a fair inference that there is In Eng
land alone a possible market for some
s40000,000 worth Of cheese every

VERSATILITY NOT RECOGNIZED.

When I dub Whistler an immortal
writer, mean precisely that so long
as there are people interested in the
subtler qualifications of English prose
as an art, so long will there be a few
constantly recurring readers of THE
Gentle Art" writes Max Beerbohm in
the Metropolitan. Theer are In Eng
land, at this moment, few people to
whom prose appeals as an art. But
none of them, | think, has yet done
justice to Whistler's prose. None has
taken it with the seriousness 1t de-
serves. | am not surprised. When a
man can express himself through two
media, people tend to take him lightly
in his use of the medium to which he
devotes the lesser time and energy,
even though he use that medium not
less admirably than the other, and
even though they themselves care
about 1t more than they care about the
other. Perhaps this very preference
in them creates a prejudice against
the man who does not share 1t, and
so makes them skeptical of his power.
Anyhow, If Disraeli had been unable
to express himself through the me-
dium of political life. Disraelis novels
would long ago have had the hue
which the expert Is just beginning to
| give him. Had Rossetti not been pri-
marily poet, the expert in painting
would have acquired long ago his pres
ent penetration into the peculiar value
| of /
Whistler had never painted picture,
and, even so, had written no more
than he actually did write, this essay
in al breciation would have been fore
stalled again and again.

she had gone to heaven, and by 9th

FOREST GROWING IN PRAIRIE
STATES.

The American Government Bureau
of Forestry has selected two widely
separated sections OF the treeless
area of the West for study in arti-
fetal forestry during the present sea-
son. A field force is at work study
ing the soils and the kind Of timber
best adapted to the States of Illinois
and the two Dakotas, the former be-
ing low, level prairie for the most
part, and the latter, high table-land
but both without trees. except along
the streams. There has been consid-
cradle private tree planting in both
states chiefly, however, on small
scale, and for purposes of shade and
shelter for farm buildings.
The Forestry bureau is making a
study of the subject with a view to
the encouragement of tree planting on
more extensive scale. Two purposes
are to be furthered by this One, the
fencing and building purposes, and
the other, the gradual growth of tim
Der shelter belts at intervals suf-
fcient to break the force of the fierce
winds that sweep across these plains.
Some experiments in this line have
demonstrated two very important
benefits, the one being that the win.

belts survives, where otherwise II
would be blown bare and killed. The
other demonstrated advantage is that
in the drouth seasons the sheltered
land retains moisture much longer
than that which is wind swept AS

of retarding evaporation can hardl,
