One "probability stands out §o clearly. as almost to r the gulse Of & 'certainty. It is that that this war is to be followed by immense popular upheavals. These will take the form: of determined protests against militarism and also against autocratic .goyernment. - The vast half articulate masses will no longer consent. to be thought of as merely food for cannon, whenever their be- sotted rulers give the signal for car- hage.

Charles Richet: of the University of Paris, as authop- ity for the assertion that ambulan- ce service nlone for 500,000 wound ad or ilk costs $1 a day for each .o $500,080 "This is a startling sum," the editorial, 'but apparently it does not take into consideration the cost of feeding the doctors, nurses an@ gither chauffeurs or drivers of horses connected with the ambulan ce service, while there is no estimate of the first cost of the elaborate-par aphernalin, drugs, apparatus, instru- | ments, ete., required." Roughly speaking, [the editorial asserts, battle casualties in reeent wars have varied from 10 per cent. to 20 per cent. of the number of soldiers engaged. The ratio of killed and wounded has been about one to four. 'Of the casualties from 65 to 80 per cent, were caused by rifle fire, and from 26 to 30 per cent. by ar- tillery fire, chiefly shrapnel. Bayon- ef and sabre wounds have been of comparatively infrequent occurence and little mention is made of them [in reports. In the elvil 'war in thi: country 90 per cent, of the total wounds recorded - were caused by small arms, while the injuries from | artillery amounted to only 9.87 per {cent. of the total wounds. "The increase in range, the rapid- ity and accuratity of fire developed in modern military firearms, supple mented by the relative increase in thd" strength, of field artillery, will have an important bearing upon the character of the wounds and th: umber of the easuslities," says the | urngl in commenting on the pre- ent 'war. "Experience in recent wars has demonstrated the charac- ter of the injuries produced by mo- dern firearms. The European powers have all adopted rifles with similar ballistic properties.
