WAR AND THE DUEL.



Henry watterson declared recently
that the death Of the duel in the Unit
ed States proved that warfare between
nations can be ended.
President Taft made the same point
the other day.
And it is a good point. Time was,
in this country, when duelling was a
custom as fixed as any other. Did two
men come To disagreement? They
must fight; IL was pistols or swords
for two. That was the habitual meth
DDS Of settling differences between
men. He who refused TO accept chal-
lenge was a craven. He who became
skilled in duelling and was ever ready
to night was a hero
And one day duelling came to an
end. There hasn't been a duel in this
country for many years. a man who
would challenge his neighbor TO fight
with swords or pistols would be
thought insane.
Why did duelling pass out Of fash
ion? Because public sentiment killed
lit AS society gained broader views
and as its civilization began to take"
people realized that duelling was not
only wicked but silly. The practice
couldn't survive a public sentiment like
that So now 1t is ended.
The same fate is going to overtake
war, and the same kind Of public sen
timent that ended duelling is going to
end duels between nations.
There's an odd thing about this war
business. Did you ever stop 10 think
that IL isn't the people that make wars
who fight them. or who pay the bills?
Very rarely do the statesmen and
rulers who bring war about actually
] fight, and never do they pay the cost.
/ one time centuries ago. the rulers
who made wars used to fight them,
too; but even then the money cost was
borne mostly by the common people.
Nowadays, most wars arise out OF sor-
& did commercial occasions. The need
Of more foreign makets, the need OF
distractng the minds Of the people
from vexatious domestic problems-it
Is such things that make wars i'm these
] days. And the men who bring wars
about don't go TO war. They send 9TH
ers. Neither do they pay the cost OF
wars. The humble tollers who produce
wealth for others 20 spend pay the full
cost Of all wars I'm blood and treasure.
Some time. You see. these humble
toilers who are the pawns in the games
: played by men OF power in government
and finance are going to realize this
situation. and when they realize IT q
the full war will be over.
II the people OF the nations mad,
= the rule that those who caused war,
, hereafter must do all the lighting ant
, pay all the cost, there would be M
more war.
Public sentiment killed the duel. anC

Sleeping With Children.

When it is necessary for an adult
70 sleep in the same bed with young
child, the following method will be
found quite satisfactory, and insure
comfort TO the adult at least. Make
the bed with three sheets instead OF
two; then have the child sleep be-
tween the middle and lower sheets,
and the adult between the middle and
upper sheets. This prevents the child
from rolling around and also holds
the sheet tightly about its shoulders-- -
