Tbe certainty that tbey will In crease the carnage of war U bound to act as a deterrent on military powers. and It may be said with confidence that they have had that effect already. There has not been a war between na tions of the first class since the strug gle 'between France and Germany, though International Jealousy and ha tred have been very pronounced upon occasion, and In Europe at the present time tbe disposition seems to be to wait for accessions of strength, both from alliances and from these new In ventions. Meanwhile the progress of Invention Is so nearly even that no government maintains an advantage for any great length of time, and all governments count the probable cost of modern battles. The whole situation Is summed up In tbe phrase, "one is afraid and the other darcsn't"- It Is only ,whcn provocation comes from weak and half-clvlllzed people that martial ardor Is encouraged to the fighting point" by responsible states men. Undoubtedly another cause ot re straint among civilized communities Is growing aversion for war, but the Inventors have had their Influence.

Those mentioned above are all the more Important as It can be ascertained to what church they belonged. According to the statement or a mediaeval traveler the hospice ami the monastery which tbe citizens or AmalQ founded about the year 010, as n refuge for western pilgrims, were situated due south of the holy sepul cher, about a stono'a throw away. The first church was built In honor of St. Mary do Latlnls and the second, tho ruins or which have now been round, In honor or St John, the ltaptlst. The French monk Hernard, who lived there In 870, highly praised the hospitality and the large library or the hospice.

LEO X11L PUTS IN SUMMER IN AN ANCIENT TOWER. - - A visitor from Scotland to the Toron- 'to conference suld-n sreat many people tin his country regarded Canada as "the ulclng on the American plum-cake." Less poetic than the characterization, "Our ILady of Sorrows," the description of Jthe Dominion yet appeals to tbe Imag ination of tho epicure. The visitor indded the significant remark that be believed Canadians themselves bad a ETeat share of the cake. One of the most sensible mores In connection with the army Is the pro sposed change In uniforms.

Realization of this fact was brought home to Mr. Moody by the clatter and snap with which the marine on sentinel dujy at the gate brought his rifle to a salute. As ho whisked by Secretary Moody bad hardly time to return tbe salute.

A few years hence the Uttlo prince who figures In the fullowlng story rrom tbe London Express will hear or the Nile and Trafalgar and the great vic tories won by Urltlsh merchant sea men, and will know that to be a sailor requires skill and heroism; but Just now his view or this noble profession and or his royal rather as well Is re freshingly natural and boyish. Not long ago the Prince of Wales went unexpectedly Into the royal nurs ery, and found his little son busily en gaged drawing on a bit of scrap paper the picture or a ship. "Well, laddie," said the prince, quite proud of his son s creditable perform ance, "I'm very pleased to see that you are fond or ships and sailors. I am sailor, you know." "Yes, daddy," cried Prince Edward, excitedly, "and I want to be a sailor. too, when I m grown up!" "Ah." said the Prince or Wales, smtl Ing, "and you want to be a sailor, do you? Because daddy's a sailor, I sup pose?" "Not because or that, I think," said the young prince, thoughtfully; "be cause I 'don't like doing my lessons al ways, and you needn't be clever to be a sailor, need you, daddy?" 5 A STUDY IN SCARLET.
