Cost Record of the European
War

David Starr Jordan, president OF
the University Of California, writes
as follows in the San Francisco
Chronicle: Edgar Crammond Of
London, high authority, estimates
the cash cost of a year of the
European war to August, 1915, at
$4,000, 100000, while other losses
will amount up TO make grand total
of $4,000, 100000. No one can have
any conception of what $4,000, 00O,-
900 may be. 1t is four times all the
coin in the world. If this sum were
measured out in 500 gold pieces and
they were placed side by side on the
railway track, on each rail, they
would line with gold every line from
New York TO the Pacific Ocean, the
two Canadian lines included. There
would be enough left to cover each
rail of the Siberian Railway from
Vladivostock TO Petrograd. There !
would still remain sufficient TO rehab-
ilitate Belgium. and to buy the whole
of Turkey, at her own valuation, wip-
ing her finally from the map.
"0r, we may figure in some other
fashion. The average workingman in
America earns S5lS per year. 1t
would take ninety million years work
to pay the cost of the war; or ninety
million American laborican laborers
might pay it off in one year, if all
their living expenses were paid.

Special Notice to Emmett Folks

We wish to announce we are ex-
elusive Emmett agents for the simple
mixture of buckthorn bark, glycerine,
etc, known as Adler-i-ka. This rem
edy, used successfully for appen-
dicitis, is the most THOROUGH
bowel cleanser we ever sold. 1t is so
powerful that ONE SPOONFUL re-
lieves almost ANY CASE of constipa-
ton, sour or gassy stomach. Adler
i-ka never gripes, is safe to use and
the INSTANT action is surprising.

war is little more than the esti-
mated value of all the property of the
United States west of the Mississippi
River. 1t is nearly equal to the total
value of all the property in Germany
(S4S, 900 ,000,00e)' as estimated in
1906. The whole Russian Empire
($35, 900 00,000) could have been
bought for less sum before the war
began. 1t could be had, on a cash
sale, more cheaply now. This sum
would have paid for all the property
in Italy (s13,OOO, O00,0O0), Japan
$4,000, 900, 000)' Holland ($5,000,-
100000, Belgium ($7,000,000,000),
Spain $4,000, 100000 and Portugal
(S2, 500, 000,O00). 1t is three times the
entire yearly earnings in wages and
salaries of the people of the United
States ($15,500,000,000).
"The cost of this war would pay the
national debts of all the nations in the
world at the time the war broke out.
If all the farms, farming lands and
factories in the United States were
wiped out of existence, the cost of this
war would more than replace them. If
all the personal and real property of
half our nation were destroyed, or if
an earthquake of Incredible dimen-
3ions should shake down every house
rom the Atlantic to the Pacific, the
waste would be less than that involved
n this war. And an elemental cat
leaves behind it no costly
egacy of hate"

for
Mothers
Merry Christmas For Al.

There is a tendency on the part Of
parents to make OF Christmas a very
practical holiday. II we look back at
our " youthful Christmases is It not
the memories Of Santa Claus, the mys-
terious Christmas tree and the WON
derful Christmas morning stocking
that stand out most wildly and pleas
antly? After all. t Christmas really
Christmas with the imaginative eae~
ment left QUIZ To those who have
known the old fashioned Christmas
the very modern Christmas is quite
unsatisfactory. Give the little ones
az Jolly a Christmas as you can Don't
be ashamed Of having q big Christmas
tree. q Christmas tree frolic and a San
Ia Claus. The Christmas legends are
lovely, and when they grow up the
youngsters are sure to discover the
truth. and a little make believe won't
hurt them now. Forget about the
practical Christmas and give your chh-
dren q real old fashioned Christmas.
See how much better they like II than
the other.

Forming . Girp. charaeter.


One Of the hardest periods of q girls
life is between the ages Of thirteen
and seventeen years. So many mothers
fail to realize how much maternal care
and the closest loving attention In This
period can do to form their daughters
entire after life. The average mother
seems to think that when her girl has
grown as far as thirteen years she Is
able to look out for herself. There Is
no time when she is in greater need
Of attention than this.
The years between thirteen and sew
enteen are really the formative period
Of the girls life. Her character. her
manners and her habits are formed
during this time. Before this period
she is too young to have anything
make a decisive difference In her
whole life. After she has passed her
seventeenth year she is too firmly OK
ed in her past way Of living to change
very quickly. But during this period
Of four years her character may be
nodded like clay to grow into either
the most beautiful OF the most hideous
model. according to the fingers which
have done the work.

aahyb Eyasiaht.

A newly born babe shows in no
unmistakable manner its aversion to
bright lights. and for this reason It is
always important to shade the infant
from direct sunlight or bright artificial
lights for some months or so after
birth
When an infant Is born with inllamed
eyes no effort Is spared by both doc
tor and the nurse to cure this condi-
ton. There IA no doubt that many
cases have been saved from blindness.
It is as well for u mother to bear In
mind that an infant which has suffered
from sore eyes may at a later period
display some ocular weakness. and she
should lose no time in putting the child
in touch with medical advice.
Most infants under the age Of three
months. since they are not able to prop
erly coordinate the eye movements.
are liable to squirt. but. this is of no
Importance whatsoever. After this age
the infant can be truly said to be able
to look ut things. but it is not until the
sixth or seventh month that recogni-
ton of things seen is developed.
