Universal Military Training.
Darn TineS.l

The claim that military training de
vclors a nation Of people crazy for
war does not hold true in a democracy.
1t is only in an autocrocy where the
people are moved about like pawns to
suit the ambitions of hcadstrone rulers
that the application applies. If Ger
many had been democratic country,
with the people directing THEN own
destiny, there never would have been
war like this despite the fact that
Germans have been undergoing mill
tarv training for decades and decades.
4 near application of the truth of the
assertion that military training does
not neulcate love for war, or even a
prediction for war, is given by the
graduates of our own Norwich univer-
Sity. who, following their four years
Of more or less rigorous military re-
gime, 20 out from the institution and
enter civil life with the same spirit as
other American citizens, the spirit Of
patriotism but not the desire to wage
war. Were ii true that military train
ing bcgets a desire for war our Nor
wien graduates of century would have
been considered factors as fOmcnters
Of international discord; vet, they are
not-they are just as peacc-loving citi-
zcns as the men who never shouldered
a rifle. If every able-bodied man in
the United States should be compelled
to 20 through course Of military
/ training at 4 certain age we should not
! be any more of a war-like nation than
we have been since the Civil war, be
cause the people of the United States
rule themslvs and they would not
/ throw away thir own lives without Just
/ provoeation. That is ono feature OF
i the present rising demand for military
training in the United States which
ought to be taken into consideration
There are, of course, many positive ben

Tragedy Of Being Dull.

In the April Woman 5 Home Com
panion Arnold Bennett describes the
tragedy OF being dull.
1.-The man lacking imagination is
the utterly mattpr-of-fact man He
is necessarily the man who never has,
and cannot have. any point of view
except his own. He is the Words
WORKMAN man to whom a primrose BY
the river 5 brim was strictly a yellow
primrose instead Of being q miracle
He is imprisoned in what to him is
the actual. and he is always the exact
center of the prison. which is of thick
est iron. His tragedy IS that he does
not suspect, and is incapable Of sus-
pecting, that he j. in prison at all,
and that the prison walls and floor and
roof entirely prevent him from really
getting at any other human being
whatsoever. He is always in his own
place, and never in the other person 5
place. This is the deep meaning Of
dulmess, and this is the dull man s
doom -

People who live in unguardcd sea-
coast towns will feel a little uneasi-
ness with the country in state OF
war. 1t il not probable that any Ger

Nantucket and Norfolk about ships Of
this class appear to have been based
largely on nerves. II is entirely prob
able, however, that at some not dis
tant date German submarine NAV

and soon after sunk several vessels off
Nantucket demonstrated the fact that
Germany has perfected tha submarine

pied and despairing rheumatics during
the last FIVE years.
Powerful and sure; quick acting, yet
harmless; Rheuma gives blessed relief
almost at once. The magic name has
reached every hamlet in the land and
there is hardly a druggist anywhere
who cannot tell you of almost mar
velous cures.
If you are tortured with rheuma-
tism or sciatica, you can get bottle
of Rheuma from Wilfred F. Root or
any druggist for not more than 80
cents, with the understanding that If
it does not completely drive rheu-
matte poisons from your system
money back.
