the qualification of his fads and

gest, are entirely at variance with the
proper training of Young mans
mental and moral faculties.
In this connection ar interesting
little story comes from Europe to the
effect that Prince Edward eldest son

cents a week for spending money while
he is in school When he has spent his
25 cents he mus; wait until the next
week before getting more. All bis

friends or relatives may not send him
money.

have his tomobiles, his two or three |
servants. his regular seats at the the

stand largely in the way of his mental |

CONCERNING WAR,

Unquestionably many nations nave
gone to war for very unsubstantial
reasons. Formerly coutry would
take up arms for a sentiment. to re
mel an insult offered its sovereign. 70
conuner new territory, or TO defend
itself from foreign invasion. One TEA
sor was apt to be just as potent as
kano her. No one can very well as
certain the genesis of the Thirty
Years War without reading the his
tory Of many nations. A complication
of causes brought about the French
| Revolution. Those of Us who have
read the romances of Sienkiewicz can
not help wondering what Poland,
Russia and the Tartars We're fighting
about. As we walk retrospectively
through the streets of Warsaw. we
cannot understand why Poland should
have been torn by internecine con
aicts. How this spledid common.
wealth fell before the might Of Rus
sla ana Prussia is one of the prob
lens of history. The wars between
France and England are not alto
gether ineligible. Even Napoleon
today is the Great Enigma Why
should he have fought and what was
be fighting for?
Sometimes there was a woman in
the case. Eugene was credited with
having brought on the war between
France and Germany. Gladstone's
pamphlet against "the unspeakable
Turk" facilitated the conflict between
Russia and Turkey. Joe Chamberlain
was he promoter Of the Anglo-Boer
war. which could easily have been
averted. Our war OF secession was
one that could hardly have been
ayerted because of the peculiar sur
roundings.
But war is not such an easy thing
in our time We have always realized
that Japan had a just cause against
Russia: but why should the United
States and Japan want To go 20 war
Just now? There may be some silly
people in both countries who are
swift TO talk about war But the
question naturally arise. Why should
we want TO fight Japan and why
should Japan want to figh. as?

we might sell -theTnsto her for a rea-
sonable amount. Suppose she goes TO
war with Us for them. Once in. We
would never give up. We would de-
siTOy her navy and perhaps take
much Of her territory But suppose
on the other hand We proved to be
cutters. and after several engage
ments gave up the islands. Before
this could be brought about Japan's
feet would be seriously injured. thou
sands Of her fighting men would be

be added to her debt.
