AS to Ace Of Gunpowder

Comparison Of the terms used by
Sir Francis Bacon to describe the ef-
fects OF explosive powder in three
different places shows that he was
writing of the same powder. Now
his letter on the Secret Works of Ma
ture" would appear to have been writ
ten to William of Auvergne, arch.
bishop of Paris, who died in 124S or
1249. 1t seems, then, that the explo-
sive properties of black powder were
known in France and England before
the middle of the thirteenth century.

covered everything every argu-

them to say" said the foreign minister.
But what about the indemnify"
demanded the finance minister. He
was thinking of victory in the form
Of piles of gold In the treasury.
This question, too, was answered.
War has never brought prosperity"
Partow had written. "Its purpose is
to destroy, and destruction can never

war has often assured a period of
peace; and peace gave the impetus of
prosperity attributed to war. A man
is strong in what he achieves, not
through the gifts he receives or the
goods he steals. Indemnity will not
raise another blade of wheat in our
land To take it from beaten man
will foster in him the desire to beat
his adversary in turn and recover the
amount and more. Then we shall have
the apprehension of war always in the
air, and soon another war and more
destruction. Remove the danger of
European cataclysm, and any sum ex-
torted from the Grays becomes paltry
beside the wealth that peace will Gre

minister, ut would be rather incon-
sistent for us not to"
