AUGUSTA HOMES IN RUNS :

lives of so many young ''~ loss of the home is a ger ii lr J sor- row throughout the cornruutil
 On the corner of F.oaa aau Lincoln streets stood the homa 6f the itle J. II. Alexander, who was ssc aedea H. H. Alexander, and this beautfu place is also gone, together with ths lo ly flower garden from which oolquets were regu- larly sent to cheer he sies nd the in- valid.
 Across the street stood the old Kipat- rick home, one of the oldest in the city. Those who knew Mrs. Fitzpatrick and visited the home, a quaintly beautiful place with a big oleander in front, can never forget it. Near the Fitzpatrick home were the hospitable homes of Mrs. Massengale Mr and Mrs. w. H. Bar rett, Mir and Mrs. John Harper David- son and others equally well known. On the corner stood the home of the late William Garrett, another frame house built of selected and seasoned lumber in the old days. It burned like finder box, and the innumerable parties at which the Garretts entertained are now sad yet pleasing memory. Further up Broad street, going toward the business district, was one of the famous old homes of Georgia-the old Alexander place now owned by Mrs. H. B. Alexander. It is another house the mention of which brings to mind delight ful recollections of receptions, beautiful southern home weddings, charming after noon teas and the abiding spirit of hos pitality Nothing is left now but one red wall and a few charred trees in the garden.
 Across the street from the Alexander home was the Dunbar home, quaint brick house with tall steps leading to high front porch. There lived the late Barney Dunbar, and there reigned his beautiful daughter. The old house with it's giant guard of magnolia trees is gone old trees, you stood guard to the last, and the home with which you perished is no more.
 Another old home whose loss is a gen. uine bereavement both to it's owners and their friends was that of the Misses Julia and Sophie Moore. It was dear place on Bay street overlooking the Savannah river and the steamboat landing, it's porch shaded by vines and it's front yard bright with flowers tended by loving bands. When the levee was being built after the flood a few years ago, and the survey cut right through the home of the Misses Moore, they could not bear to have it torn down or removed and would not sell to the city at any price, with the result that the levee survey was slightly changed so as to leave them un- disturbed.
 Besides these old homes, and others built generations ago, number of beau- tiful modern residences were swept away by the flames. Among them was the home of MT. and Mrs. Frank Barrett, who saved only their silver, and the home of MT. and Mrs. Leonard Phinizy on the 800 block of Broad.
 How much is lost in those old homes! How much that money could not buy and that no amount of money can replace! How the spirit of the old-time gentle south must weep as it wanders through the churchyard of St. Pauls, now masa of blackened debris, and through the one- time gorgeous flower gardens that arc now barren waste! Nothing left but ruins and smoke and merses1e But. oh, what memories!

Fearful Cost of War

"The enormous waStage of wealth merely through war expenses is inn perfectly understood" says the weekly review of Henry Clews. Accurate fig ures are not available, and could not include the destruction of property on land and sea, nor the loss from diverting the energies of millions of men from constructive to destructive ef- forts. Germanys monthly war expenses are estimated at about 00,000,000, and war credits to the amount of $10,0O0,- 000,000 had been voted up to the end of 1915; since when additional loans az gregate about s2,5O,O0o.oOO have been announced. Germany's debt at the end of this year will be about 10 times what it was before the war, leaving an annual interest charge of approxi- mately s5So,o00,000. Germany has also helped finance Bulgaria. Turkey and Austria Hungary; the latter spending $500, 100000 monthly.
 War is costing Great Britain nearly $25,OO0,OO0 daily, or over $70o,O00,o0O monthly, and credits amounting to $S,oo0, 100000 had been voted up to the 6nQ or lSlO, SlHCo WHSH dlOlHSl PS,VVV'- ,O00 have been announced. Great Britain has also aided in financing France, Russia, Italy, Belgium, Servia and Montenegro, and the chancellor of the exchequer recently stated that Great Britain will subsidize her allies to the extent of s2,ooO, 100000 during the cur rent financial year. France borrowed about $2,O0O, ,OO00,0O0 during the first year of the war Italy is spending nearly $10O, 100000 monthly on war, and Rus sia had spent a total of about $5,00o.- 0O0, ,000 up to January 16.
 But these terrific outlays are merely part of the penalties of war. The cost of living has advanced seriously in all of these countries. Food has risen over 50 per cent in Great Britain, over GC per cent in Germany and probably still more in other belligerent countries. All the belligerents are facing imitation II varying degrees, and they are nan dicapped in international trade to the extent of from to 3S per cent, ac' cording to their relative credit. Whlcf is eventually reflected in high priced commodities Of the untold human ms lery no measure can be taken Tn the fearful war bill which Europe mus pay for in this and many succeeolhs generations"

ills would not be a menace to so- ciety because natural lives are for bidden the sexes.
 There's some preparedness for you that would outlast all the con- quests that the most imperialistic mind has ever dreamed-that would be well wottn striving for and well worth dying for if need be. Then would be no question about graft or pork. Then would be no ulterior motive; no secret sense Of unjust design nor unfair demands.
 The doctors do very well as it is. They struggle to ovrecome these social plaques as best they can. But they try to keep out the waters of the ocean by sweeping back the ris ing tide with a broom. AS fast as they cure one, the system grinds out another Day after day a victory is recorded, but the teracherous foe they fight breaks through their re- solute lines hour by hour.
 The doctors greatest enemy is not ignorance. It is poverty. Poverty provides a hundred victims for the reception of disease, day by day; hour by hour: relentlessly, tireless- | ly, pitilessly, ruthlessly, everlasting | 1y. It poisons the air; it pollutes the water; it denies food. It breaks down the tissue in the lung; atro- phies the kidney; impoverIshes the blood Before such an enemy medi- cal science is powerless. Before such actual conditions theories are a vanity.
 Yet rather than recognize the fact that Poverty does all these things and that the social health cannot be improved without the abolition of poverty, men have to content them selves with treating the effects of that grim social cause of almost all disease.
 The only hope the poor have is the democracy of disease an the iconoclasm of death.
 Disease knows no rank; draws no class line; recognizes neither race nor creed nor caste. Born in the lowliest surroundings, it penetratea the palace of the rich. The ball dress of a princess made in the London slum conveyed diptheria to royalty and the world stood aghast at it's profanity. It was nothing that the poor should die of it, bul when a princess is stricken science is called upon to attack the plague Hence we have white plague socie- ties; tuberculosis congresses aut
