Daily Cost of War, to Belligerents Is
$16O,OOO,OOO or $6,5OO,OOO an Hour
Total Cost by Next August to World
Will Be $155, ,OOO, ,OOO, ,OOO-U. S. To-
day Paying One Quarter of Total
OutgOings.

New York, Oct 16.-The Associated
Press today carries the following:
"The was is costing the belligerent
nations of the world at the rate Of
$160OOO,0O0 a day sc, 800 900 an hour
and the United States is paying at
least one-quarter of this staggering
sum, according to estimates made to-
day by the Mechanics and Metals Ma
tiOnal Bank of New York.
The estimated daily cost at the be-
ginning of the war was $50,OOOOO0 and
a year ago it was $1O0,OOOOO0.
This country's rate of expenditure is
greater than any other nation, Great
Britain second, and Germany next.
By next August, according to the
banks figures, the total cost to the
world will be $155,OOO, 100000. Al
ready expenditures have exceeded
$1O0,000,OO0O0O, of which all but
fraction has been translated into per-
manent national Indebtedness.
Interest on public debt is now cal
culated to be more than 10 per cent of
the normal income of the German peo-
pie, as compared with less than one
half of one per cent in the case of the
people in this country.
The developed national wealth of the
allies is placed at $6OOOO,OO0,OOO by
the bank, while that Of the Teutonic
powers is given as $13O, 600, 10000.
About 53,OOO,O0O men are today en-
gagged in the war. To what extent the
entente allies have gained superiority
over the Germans is shown by the bank
in striking fashion. With no more
than 100000 of American manhood
enlisted, the total military strength Of
the allies is 33,0O0,OOO against total
for Germany, Austria, Hungary, Bull
garia, and Turkey of 2O,OOO,OOO. The
population of fourteen entente allies,
from which the ranks Of their armies
may be replenished is altogether 1,3OO,-
100000, against population of less
than 150,0O0,OOO in the Central Eur
Opean nations.

OPEN YOUR WINDOWS,

Fresh air is one of the most valu-
able articles of household economy,
1t ia to be got by the simple eXpedl-
ent of opening window or two Yet
some people seem to think 1t Is one
of the most expensive substances in
the world, to judge by the degree
in which they stint themselves in its
use, The department of health in
Vermont is waging campaign Of
education to show the value of fresh air
an a health giyer,
The English higher classes are
among the most rugged people In
the world, They have achieved her
edtary and good health partly by
keeping their sleeping rooms open
to the air, In continental hotels
they are know as "fresh air fiends, -
The continent cannot understand the
strange demand for fresh air which the
Englishmen of the higher class makes
wherever he goes-in railway COM
partments, in hotel dining rooms, in
public and private apartments Of all
sorts.
But the same Englishman shows
the effects Of his cultivation Of the
fresh air habit in a ruddy complexion,
an air Of well.being, an impress
sive retention of the glow Of youth
through middle and even old age,
He begins life with legs barred tc
the breeze. He ends it in a room with
a wide open window,
The cult of fresh air is fairly adj
vanced in America, But it is moi
advanced nearly enough. Heed the
department of health plea. Oper
your window in accordance with its
request Make every day and every
night an "open window day OF
night.
When the fresh air comes in through
the window, the germs accumulated II
your room are Immediately seized witt
a desire to get out or die. Give then
a chance to do it.
