Prompted by those who seek
profit and notoriety, the victories
OF war are won and lost by the
sacrifice OF the life Of loved sons
and brothers.
Armies and navies take from the
human race the best specimens OF
men, leave the aged and unfit in
the majority to build up the race
and develop civilization
Modern war 10 prompted gener
ally by those whedo the least tight
ing and pay but little in sacrifice
or money.
II those who are foremost ia
starting wars were compelled to be
the first in the battle and bear .
full share OF the grief and cost,
there would be no wars-but few,
II any, wish to sacrifice sons and
bear the financial burdens incident
to war.
Hate and revenge are not valid
reasons for making war. Those
who would create war for financial
gain or personal aggrandizement
are our most dangerous enemies.
The glory of winning battle will
not heal the bleeding heart OF a
singI mother whose sons have been
slain, nor will the conquering OF
nation bring happiness 10 widow
whose husband lies in an unmark-
ed grave.
Education and Christianity will
bring permanent peace, prosperity
and happiness when education be-
comes general. Christianity will
bring Universal peace.
Wars that have been, and to
keep off those that might be, now
consume ixty-fve cents OF every
dollar collected by the govern
ment.
Before declaring war, let as hold
primary with the understanding
that those who vote for war must
be fret to the front and bear per-
csntage. according TO their wealth.
of the financial burden.
Unlvereal peace woks for pros
perlty and happiness. War meaDs
waste end misery. Ask those who
have sons and money If they are
willing to sacrifice the lives OF
sops and spend their money to win
battles, and for those who howl
for war will cease to be heard In
the land.

American. Military History.

One hundred years ago the little
American force pretentiously Cesig-
mated as the Army Of the North re-
tired from Plattsburg to the south
bank Of the Saranac river, in readiness
to meet the British army, which was
now almost within striking distance.
General Macomb, the American com.
mander, had. about $500 men in his
army, but perhaps less than 1000 were
fit for active duty The British force
numbered between 10000 and $4,000
men, the majority of whom were vet
erans in the>service. Notwithstanding
the seeming impossibility of defense,
General Macomb Unanswered his little
army and gathered such reinforce
ments by earnest appeal as to enable
him to anticipate the meeting with the
enemy with the utmost confidence.

KEEP UP THE OLD CUSTOMS
Curious Practices That Have Long
Prevailed In Two Arlstocratlo
London Banks.

A New York banker who spends
much time abroad and has recently re-
turned was speaking the other day
about the amalgamation Of the two old
private banking houses of London.
Coutts and Robarts, and of some OF
the queer customs which still prevail
In them and doubtless will be carried
oversto the merged institution.
From time immemorial the owners
Of Coutts's bank have insisted that
mustaches and boards must be taboo
to all employees and also as far as
possible to its customers. The found
er of the bank was firm believer In
character reading from the formation
Of the mouth and always insisted that
he must have free and unobstructed
opportunity to study the mouth OF
either customer or employe and this
has been carried on down to the pres
ent day. Moreover, 1t is an unwritten
rule that every official Of Coutt's must
wear black frock coat and white tie
and it is said that the procession
from the bank at closing time appears
like a delegation of Mont -Conformist
clergymen.
In the offices of Robarts', antique
little lamps, like those pictured in In
teriors of the olden time, are used
for light and for sealing purposes.
These lamps are always kept filled
with specially made brand of oil
and gas or electric light has never
been able to Danish these old-style
lamps from Robarts'. The merger of
these two banks was described by the
American banker as wedding of the
two aristocrats of the English bank
ing world.

TARTARIN
By GEORGE COBB, JR.

Here! What do you mean by bring ing me this stuff when I asked for an omelette Tartarin?" inquired of the waiter who served me in the Cafe Ma, poleon.
 For whenever I visited Paris went to the Napoleon for one of Monsieur DuhamePs famous omelettes.
 The waiter shrugged his shoulders. ''Helas, Monsieur, we cannot provide the original omelette Tartarin any more." he said. "Only Monsieur Al phonse, the chef, knew how to make heen, and he Is gone to America. He works now in the Hotel St. Charles"
 This interested me, for the Hotel St. Charles is round the corner of the downtown New York block in which l live. And I had never known that the omelette Tartarin was to be had there!
 The waiter glanced toward the dark eyed MademoiseIle Dubois, at the cash counter
 You see, Monsieur" he explained, there was a quarrel between Mon- sieur Napoleon, the proprietor, and Monsieur Alphonse, the chef, over Mademoiselle Dubois, of the cash counter. Each wanted to marry her. Eh bein! Monsieur Alphonse was re- jeeted, and he went to America. And Monsieur Napoleon"
 Married her?' I asked.
 "Mais oui, monsieur. Mademoiselle Dubois is now Madame Napoleon. Only this is secret, understand. be- cause 1t would spoil business if it were known. But helas; One can only obtain the omelette Tartarin in New York now at the Hotel St. Charles"
 I spoke to stout little Monsieur Ma poleon about the matter. did not re- veal to him my knowlege of the secret, however, though. saw the pretty cashier look suspiciously at me.
 Monsieur" said the proprietor, ''verily, since Monsieur Alphonse left me my custom has fallen of sadly.

FIRST FLOWERS IN PULPIT
Parson Alien of North6oro, Mass., Led the Way In BraVlng the Old
 Prejudice.

Few church-goers who note the floral decorations of the pulpit on Sunday mornings know who it was that first brought flowers into a descendant of the New England church. Of course such a thing could not have been thought of in Puritan days any more than music, or stoves, or any other awe-reducing influence in the old meeting house.
 That makes 1t all the more curious that the custom of pulpit decorations should have originated in Northboro, Mass
 The clergyman, Doctor Allen, al. though a true preacher of the old school happened also to be lover of flowers. He had beautiful, old fash. toned garden in front of his house, and one Sunday in 1884 he took bou- quet to church and placed it beside the Bible.
 On seeing it one of the deacons went forward and removed the vase, remarking: "Parson, I'll just take them weeds out of your way"
 The next Sunday Doctor Allen again placed . bunch of his garden flowers beside the Bible, and this time it re- mained.
 Other churches took the matter up and sermons were preached about IL. It was blasphemous, and a wicked, worldly show, it was declared. But the blossoms were there each Sunday, and are there to this day.
 "A a- church to use garden flowers or wild flowers or leaves when they are in season; but collections are taken up to buy flowers through the seasons when these cannot be had.
 Even the churches whose preachers once denounced the custom and con demned the originators of 1t long ago succumbed to the gentle missionary influence of the pulpit bouquet.-New York Sun

He was the inventor of the famous omelette Tartarin. Kings have eaten at this little restaurant, because the omelette Tartarin is not to be obtained in royal courts. Now, alas, the ome- lette Tartarin is dead"
 Suddenly he caught me by the lapels of my coat, and stood holding me thus. his head a little on one side, and a beseeching expression on his face.
 Monsieur" he said, will you not be an ambassador of peace for me? Monsieur, you are of New York. You know the Hotel St. Charles, where that scoundrel Alphonse now cooks for a nation of unartists, who can never rise to the appreciation of the omelette Tartarin. When you return. will you not go to the accursed one and beg him to return?"
 And tell him we shall all be good friends again." continued Madame Ma poleon, or, rather, Mademoiselle Du- bois, as she must still continue to be known
 We'll, I accepted the commission. I felt sorry for Monster Napoleon and the disappointed kings, and l thought that to forego my own chances of tasting the omelette Tartarin at the St. Charles was an act of distinct self-abnegation. The first evening I had to spare after my arrival in New York I went to the St. Charles and ordered an omelette Tartarin.
 It was no more the omelette Tar tarin of the Cafe Napoleon than the present omelette of the Cafe Napoleon was like the wonderful creations of yesteryear. could not understand it.
 'Ts not Monsieur Alphonse your chef?" I inquired of the headwaiter.
 "Yes, sir" he answered. Fine chef, too, he's supposed to be. He's got a gold medal from the late king of Bel eium for his omelette Tartarin. Didn't you find 1t distinguished. sir?"
 "No!" I shouted. I've eaten bad omelettes in most countries of the world, but for sheer unsavoriness I've never tasted one as bad as the one I've had here tonight Bring your chef to me at once"
 The waiter looked as if he was go- ing to burst into tears, but apparently he thought better of 1t, and, being i'm. pressed by my manner, he summoned the chef, who presently made his ap- pearance. He was a stout black
