ACOLUMN FOR
THOUGHTFUL READERS
What One Man DID

Ip reading the accounts of the
battles and bombardments in the
great European war ones feelings
are narrowed at the stories Of death,
wounds, destruction OF property,
misery aud suffering.
And set there are some things
about .thl, war that comes as CLEANS
Of light. For instance, # one com
pares tie condition Of the sick aud
wounded soldiers with the condi-
tions that prevailed in some former
wars, he will realize that greater
humanity. larger medical and sur.
gical knowledge, and better organ.
lzed and more intelligent efforts
have done much to render the lot
of the .ick and wounded soldiers
more Comfortable. The percentage
of death. from sickness and wounds
has decreased to very gratifying
extent
SiEtF years ago three great na-
uons, now allied, were fighting
each other, aud even now one can
not read Of the dreadful mortality
from wounds and diseis, without a
'shudder. The soldiers died like

states and the two great battles Of
Magenta and Solfernio were fought
and the carnage was dreadful. 1t
is worth mentioning that 40 the
dreadfu. suffering of the wounded
who were left uncared for on the
field OF battle was the immediate
cause Of the founding of the Red
Cross Society whose agents on ev-
cry battlefield are veritable Angels
OF NeccY.
Hem; Dunant, a Swiss, saw the
battle. aud when he noted the al
most u.ter absence of facilities for
caring for the wounded, he enlisted
the heIl Of some merclful women
and together they relieved the ag-

Prof. Mansterburg of Harvard Uni

natural considering his nationality,
aud he makes that fact publicly
known, The majority of Ameri.

views, but every true American
recognizes that Prof. Munsterburg
has the right to hold those views,
and give utterance TO them. Ru.
there is one man who does not think
so. lie is reputed to be very
wealthy, and it is said that lie has
offered to give Harvard$lO, 900, 900,
but the gift is conditioned upon the
resignation of the professor. Pre-

Of the gift, has resigned, but the
university, to its eternal honors has
refused to accept the resignation

by cajolery, threats, brlbes or any
