This war" Lord Roberts is quoted saying was
virtually necessary to all the nations engaged in it,
not only necessary. but salutary. Europe had, it
seems arrived stage of GENERALIZATION, of "anae

rescue it, The symptoms this GENERALIZATION
he puts it, as follows:
THE labor market becomes unsettled. dema-
gogues seize every opportunity to show their
strength. and labor is organized agains; capital.
Trades unions. finding weaklings pitted aganst
them, commence to bully. All the tendencies
of effeteness pervertsm and national
lessness set in one after another. Politicians
demand pay for services which should be pa

the other day-the woman who used
to be rich and the woman who sued
to be poor. And they were both
horrid.

she never Dragged or showed off,
or tried TO make you feel poor. she
never acted as if she felt rich or
wanted YOU TO know that she had
plenty of money She never thought
of talking about what things cost
and she was just as simple and sweet
and nice as she could be, in spite OF
her maids and her butler. and her
footman and her chauffeur.
But nOw-she's different-so diff
ferent that can hardly believe SHE'S
the same person.
She has lost money. and she
thinks she has -, her friends with
it.
What Should We Fear?
She hasn't. of cOurse-no one ever
lost a real friend by losing money
but she thinks so and that's almost
as bad.
II she goes on acting tne way she
acted at the party where / met her
last week, what she thinks will be
true she will lose her friends, and
then she'll say il was all on account
OF the money. and she'll believe it.
and other people will believe it, and
