That a greater horror Of war never
pervaded the earth than Is felt now
In the presence of the mighty struggle
in Manchurla Is one good sign. The
glory of war Is now seldom mentioned,
for the world Is beginning to doubt the
reality of glory that Is based ON the
destruction Of human life. The great
est statesmen of to-day are called
great for their ability to maintain
peace rather than for their capacity to
conduct war; Furthermore, There have
never been greater efforts ON the part
of leaders of human thought to In
duence men and governments for
peace than have been put forth dur.
ing the past year.

The bloodhound Is a much advertised
and greatly overrated dog, according
to the Washington Star. If he bad a
press agent and should lose his dia-

than comes to him in the daily papers.

is printed almost daily: Robbers came
to Squeedunk last night. They broke
into the blacksmith shop and took
tools, with which they broke open the
post Office safe. They then escaped on

Is in pursuit"
After every railroad "hold-up" the
report comes that q sheriff's posse
with bloodhounds has started on the
trail.

United States outside the kennels Of
some dog fanciers and Uncle Toms

and has blood in him, but that La az

gets. Often he is a foxhound. Some
of these hounds are trained from pup
pyhood to follow the scent Of q deer,
rabbit or other four-footed game. Ev-
cry man has a scent peculiar to him
self, though most men do not like
to admit 1t. No dog completely recog-
mixes his master without a few smiths
