A delightful rose for such garden
is the Japanese variety called the Ru-
gosa, which seems to be proof against
all floral ailments 1t produces flowers
somewhat like the wild rose. only larger
and richer in color, and has thick and
somewhat lustrous foliage that makes
it very satisfactory as shrub. It pro

THE COST OF WAR.

One big cannon shot costs $I7oo, in
Guiding deterioration of weapon. Gu
Dreadnaught costs $Io,ooo,ooo, or a:
much as 500 locomotives cast at $4,000
each. The cost of the peaceful cruise Of
the American battle fleet around the
world would have built 500 schoo
houses costing $4,000 each.
The armed peace of Europe for the
past 81 years has cost Sill ,oooooo,ooo
which is more than the entire wealth OF
the United States.
More than 100000 lives were sac
rifced in wars during the nineteenth
century.
Like the American duel, wars do moi
decide moral issues. War is the most
futile and ferocious of human follies.
War obliterates the moral sense 1t de-
n1oralizes the soldier, the statesman, the
journalist, the preacher, the citizen. War
is relapse into barbarism. War is toll
Grated simply because people do not un-
derstand how to get rid of it.
Everybody admits it to be terrible
evil.
Our work is to show people that it is
not necessary one.-Ameriean Peace
