Despite its horrors, war will persist as long as the etruggle for existence, the effort of self-preservation and the economic con- tests of trade engage our attentien. Of wars and rumors of wars there will be no end until humanity is eyolved into something higher than it now is. Nevertheless, Use- less wars, wars of more vainglory, wars wag- ed only for mere prestige, should be restrict- ed, and can be, There is occasien tow tor the world to bring pressure to boar upon William of GermanylIstess he can be quieted, unless his itnpulsive nature can be soothed into something like rest, he will pre- cipitate a war that must be disastrous to his own people.

Foster Chaffee, Western Passenger Agent, Toroisto, • • *Or Portrait of Chinese Empress, The portrait of the Dowager Empress of China, painted by the Ameriesm art- ist, Mise Carl, which has been on ees- hibition at the Ste Louis Fele, is to be the property of this country, an unex- ampled honor and difficult to understand. It will probably be placed in the White House, an no art gallery would be thought a respectful resting plaeo for so august a gift. Indeed, considering the prejudices of the people, the painting and exhibiting of a portrait of a Chinese ruler is a daring innovation. It is said, that this portrait, like former Chinese draevinge of the Empress, is misleading, as it depicts a, large woman, while she ui in fact, a. little woman.

Tho rural town Is fact becoming a city in Ito general appointments, amommodatious, manners and style, and it is the means of disseminating tho latest ideas and conveni- ences among surrounding farms. Through in- vestments and Improvements the country Is getting neater to the city, nearer to the my- riad' advantages ot comfort which human lu-• genuity is devising. The present is an era of luxury. Every urban home has the in- vestiture of a palace in a former period; In fact, It offers, with the common exception of size and yard area, more and better facili- ties for easy living. Every country home Is comparatively as well furnished. Almost all the comfort which is found in the city home can be installed and enjoyed in the most isolatee farmhouses lying in an out- of-the-way locality.

Mother Shipton's alleged prophecy, go long regarded as the most wonderful prediction ever uttered until it was proved to have been a "fake," failed to provide for the automo- bile, although she did foretell the steam loco- motive. But the automobilist's case was an- ticipated, many centuries ago.

Recent events in actual war have demon- strated that if a country has use for a great navy at all It should bo a very great navy*. and then it must be bandied with great deli- cacy. It should have a nice, smooth, strate- gical spot on which to rise and tall gently on tho swell of the sea and vtalt for the traeel-worn enemy to appear. Going out after a fight is hard on a navy. A small establishment will do for peace and for the exchange of civilities between govern- ments, but we must "hump" oUrselves if we are goieg into the war class. 0 -RANGE BLOSSOMS That precious remedy, Is a positive cum for all female diseases.
