Regiment Of Dragons Famous Since

Second to none"is the proud motto
of the gallant and famous regiment
the Second Dragon guards, or Royal
Scots Grays. 1t is happily chosen
motto, for the fame of the regiment

centuries, it's striking and historic

have made the Royal Scots Grays, as
an individual corps, there is no gain

familiar Of all the regiments of the
British army.
Since the regiment was raised, IN
the reign of the second Charles, the
dragons have borne themselves well

The Increase of suicides in Germany.
particularly Of children's suicides, has
aroused a general discussion Of vital
conditions in the home and the school
and has also led to an endeavor to find
the causes. The gravity Of the situa-
ton is shown by the fact that in Sax
ony alone twenty-one children under
IA years of age committed suicide in
1903, while the total number of sui
cides in Germany in the same year
was over ,000-which considerably
exceeds the number in this country,
though suicides are increasing here
with alarming rapidity. Various the
ories are put forward to account for
this increase in Germany. The social
lists explain 1t by economic reasons,
contending that it is growing harder
and harder to get subsistence, which
makes life darker and darker. The
school critics assert that children are
overforced and oversdmulated, that
tasks are set for them which those
slightly below the standard of capacity
cannot accomplish, and that the fear
Of reproof and injury to self-pride
leads them to suicide. The ministers
claim that "the absence Of faith, the
increase Of trreligion, and the growth
Of sensual materialism" explain the
weakening desire for life and. that "a
revival Of spiritual aims would lessen
suicides by increasing the serenity Of
living" There may be more or less
Of correctness In all these explana-
tons, but the ministers undoubtedly
are nearest the truth Of the matter.
The increase of suicides is not pecu-
liar to Germany. They are rapidly In
creasing in this country and many 9TH
ers. No country is free from them. It
Is not easy to see why they should not
continue to increase. AS life grows
more complex with the progress of
civilization its demands grow more ex-
acting, Its responsibilities heavier, its
pace swifter, and its recklessness more
frequent and daring. The outcome of
all this must Of necessity be a con-
tinued increase of the evil. There is
an increase not only of suicides aris-
ing from dependency, insanity, i'll
health, domestic infelicity, disappoint-
ments in love, and the ordinary causes,
in which life has become burden too
heavy to bear, but Of fantastic suicides
Of all sorts, of children because they
have been refused some request, of
suicides deliberately made by COM
pact, and of members of clubs organ
izer for suicidal purposes, and Of sui
cides unworthy Of being called any
thing but farces or freaks. There Is
in fact nothing In life cheaper than
life itself, as shown in self-murder, in
the murder of others, in the absolute
Indifference with which crimes Of neg
ligence and carelessness are commit
ted, and the multiplicity of accidental
casualties which are absolutely need
less and might easily be prevented.
To what extent this cheapness of life
is due to the increase of irreligion, the
weakening influences Of home and the
growth of sensual materialism is a
problem which should engage the at
tention Of students Of moral philoso-
ply.

Apostles Of advanced thought con-
tnue to maintain reputation for in
consistency by declaring in one breath
that Americans worship wealth and
in the next that rich men have no
friends. Both, assertions are, of course,
untrue. Dollar worship is not aug
menting and many rich men have plen-
ty Of friends-and deservedly so. A
mans possessions afford no index to
his capacity for friendship. There are
rich men with many friends and poor
men with none, but money-or the
lack of it-cuts no figure In the matter.
