THE LONDON TIMES EXPLAINS. The question of why, if the .-\1- lies are doing so Well. they have not thus far managed to drive the Germans from France and Bel- gium. is answered in a frank spirit by the military expert of the London Times. He says in ef- fect that neither England nor France was ready for \var. Lord Kitchener has dismayed prodigiâ€" ous activity. but he is no magici- an." and it will be February he- fore his new army will he ready to take the field. France has not as yet put anything: like her whole strength into the cmmmign. but is making all haste to equip fresh levies and by February will have a million new men in action. Meantime the German plan of campaign. namely. a quick ofâ€" fensive followed by a speedv vic- tory, has signally failed. German bankers and manufacturers are be- ginning to ask Where the money to carry on the war is to come from and what the end is likely to be. not prohibit.“ Clt; Cle THINGS \VOR TH KNOWING 11 I] 11 I] an A BREWERY FAILS. glass with ammonia piano keys with also Wallpaper with Confectioner and Grocer 1 alcolufl. with Sta} 09 +§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§OOOO O§§§§O§§§§§.§§§§§§§§§§O§O.90 Lance LU US men: rue reueraxron OI the Italian States. the forming of the German Bund. and the consolidation of Austriaâ€"~such matters make epochs in history and mark the great strides in human advancement.

Not that l, a superficial mind of twenty. could grasp the book â€"â€"but, to keep to my picture. l saw that lofty monumental things lay b“- fore my astonished vision. I was dazzled, overcome, my hor'zon moved out into the immensities of life. Though the full understanding only came to me later, yet that one vision I caught even then, that the history of mankind itself was not formulated by wars, kings, statesmen, treaties. greed. cunning, but by the gradual development of the intellect. Court chronicles gave no explanation to un- derlying causes, nor a picture of the civilization of the time. Buckle did not paint war and devastation with a glamor, but demonstrated that the re- Spect for arms diminished as a peOple rose in culture and intelligence. The lower into barbarism you go, the more war and its romance will die out of ‘our culture and cease to exist. Just as childhood’s wrangling ceases, so must society outgrow its childishness. How all this appealed to the con- victions of my heart, which I had so often dismissed as unworthy and weak! I now felt that these growing ideals in me were an echo of the spirit of the age,and saw that thinkers were losing their idolatry for war, and doubting its necessity. The book gave me the opposite of What I sought. yet how it solaced me, enlightened. elevated. and pacified me. Once I tried to talk to my father about it. but he would have none of it; he re- fused to follow me to the mountain top, that N, he refused to read the book, so it was useless to discuss it.

I saw that with all this reaeding my long- ings were not being gratifiedâ€"life’s flowers were still for me to pluck if I only stretched out the hand.
