What 1t Costs to Kill One
Man in Modern Warfare

The cost of killing a man is OBJ
tanned by dividing the total cost of a
war to any of the belligerents by the
number of men killed on the other
side.
In 1S70-1S71 France spent S400, 0,000,-
900 In the actual expenses of the war.
Repairing materials and giving succor
to the victims of the war. expenses
that are justly to be added, cost an
other 100000. France paid ST.
900 900, 900 as war indemnity. plus an
other 100000. 900 in interest on the
sum, loss OF revenue, forced contribu-
tions by the enemy and upkeep OF the
German army of occupation. This
third category of expenses, not being
inevitable in all wars, cannot properly
be included.
On a similar basis here are some
facts about other wars:
RussoTurkish war (1S77-1S7S)-
Turkey, s4OO.000.000.
Russo-Japanese war G905)-Russia,
81 200. 100000.
The number of men killed or who
died of wounds In these wars were:
Franco-Prussian war-Germans, 2s.-
900.
Russo-Turkish war-Russians, 49,.
600.
Russo-Japanese war-Japanese, S.
600.
Whence It results that the cost OF
killing each man was as follows:
In 1s70-1S71, $4,000.
In 1S77-1S7S. $4,000.
In 1905. $20.400.
What will kill the greatest number
and reduce the effective force most
will be not the rife or cannon, but
fatigue, typhus or cholera.

doliers" was a beloved and familiar
figure. His firm. dignified. yet genial
rule quickly made him force to be
reckoned with.
He gave proof of extraordinary tact
in dealing with the civil authorities
and he succeeded in winning the sup
port of radicals as well as clericals.
He became n favorite with King Vic
tor Emmanuel and Queen Helena,
when they visited Venice, and 1t is an
open secret that the news of his cleo
tion to the pontificate was joyfully re-
ceived by the king.
His Election as Pope.
II was no light Inheritance to sue
ceed such pontiff as Leo Kill. for
in many ways Leo symbolized the old
order, incarnating, as he did, the aris-
tocratic ideal of the scholar and the
diplomat.
Plus X. was. as befitted a demo-
cratic pope, different in many respects
from his illustrious predecessor Like
the fisherman whose place he held. he
found his recreation fishing in the
Vatican ponds rather than in writing
Latin verses. To> his saintliness OF
character and moral worth, independ-
ent OF all lesser and worldly consid-
erations, memory doubtless will pay
homage.
When balloting began. to choose
successor to Pope Leo Kill. the name
of Giuseppe Sarto was hardly consid-
cred at first. AS balloting continued.
however. the roll of votes in his favor
increased. He was then regarded as
a compromise candidate. and finally.
on the sixth ballot. he was elected
August 4, 1903, and FIVE days later he
was crowned In st. Peters. Rome,
with all the magnificence and bril-
lance of ceremonial that distinguish
es the coronation OF each successor to
the apostolic throne.
He never had been ambitious to be
the head of the Catholic church and
the successor OF st. Peter. He loved
the simple life among his friends. his
relatives and his proteges in the par
ish he first held. The grandeur. the
pomp. the great power of the Vatican
did not appeal to him.
Direct and Simple In Method.
1t is much easier to fnce the rulers
of Europe on n question than the car
dinals assembled in the Sistine chapel.
but Pope Plus did not quail or show
timidity when he informed the car
dinals as to his perseverance in the
lines he drew for himself. He was
firm, brief and unrufied. and made 1t
plain that he would not lean in either
direction to lend weight to favored
plans of different cardinals or fac
tions.
When the trouble between the
church and state broke out in France
and the Concordat was dropped. the
world looked to the pope. speculating
as to what course he would take. What
he did seemed to be the only right
thing. according to the American idea.
He ignored the nation.
Before Pope Plus had been on the
throne three years he showed that
young men who dreamed of the career
of a courtier in Rome were going to
be disappointed. The pope wanted
bishops for the difficult sees. and the
way for young diplomats to promotion,
1t was soon apparent, was through
the tiresome but wholesome office OF
governing bishop.
One great reform Pope Plus accom-
plished, and 1t promises to be ever re-
membered in history. He proved that
diplomacy In church matters is thing
of little importance compared with the
direct teaching and preaching or the
gospel TO the poor.

Standards of
The Gossip Lou

Things More Interesting
Tn an Affairs of Ones
Netghbor

See that house out yonder," said a
woman in a trolley to the friend with
her as the car paused at the corner of
street. That's where Mrs. Blank
lived"
Then followed q lot of gossip about
Mrs. Blank. When this topic was ex-
hausted the speaker continued with
the gossip of her own family and
friends, and what Name did and Tom
said When she had run out, the other
woman took up the tale of her circle.
And thus a half hour or so passed, as
the trolley bOwled along to its deSti-
nation in the suburbs.
In what a pretty little world those
two women live! They know little are
interested in little, outside the very
ordinary, commonplace dOingsS of Their
little circle of friends.
And all this great beautiful world
is about them, full Of vitality interest
ing and uplifting things. And they
keep their eyes glued on Names new
dress and wonder if she paid a dollar
yard for the material or got it at a
bargain; or they see no further than
neighbours back door and speculate
how long the latest hired girl will
stay
a certain feminine resident in a
small town deliberately laid" for
woman who had come To take charge
of a neighbours house during the fam
ily's absence, and wormed out of her
all the family affairs. The newcomer
was a guileless sort, and the gossip
was an old hand at the business, and
she departed from the chat" feeling
complacently there was little left I'M
told. Yet she had no idea she was
doing anything dishonorable or even
unfriendly. She had always lived in
this little world of gossip, and her
standards were the standards of the
world of gossip, and such standards
are very low.
But why should we live on so low a
plane? Surely there are more interest
ing things in life than the number of
times in a week that a certain young
man has called on the girl next door,
or whether Mrs. Smiths hat is a new
one. or an old one fixed over. If a
woman has any brains whatever in
her head, surely she is capable of find
ing more interesting and more pleas
ureable things in life than these. In
fact, if this is her conception of pleas
ure, she has little comprehension of
what real pleasure is.
Women who are interested in little
gossip have probably drifted into the
habit through thOughtlessness or in
ertia- But if the habit is fastened
upon them, they ought 10 shake it Oft,
and wake up to some Of the bigger,
finer things in life.
1t is a tragedy for woman's mind
to go round and round in such little
circle, when so many wonderful and
interesting things are all about her to
wake her and thrill her with their
message of the wonder of life. 1t is
more than pitiful to see her with her
eyes glued to Names or Harry's do
ings, when they might be lifted to
