Where History Does Not Repeat Itself.
ONTRASTS between French and Russian rev
olutionary conditions are as noteworthy as the
striking parallels of the two upheavals. One
vast dissimilarity , palpable enough , Is in the
relative position of the two nations in strug
gles against foreign foes.
While the French were having their Feast
of Pikes , were tearing down their Bastile , were stringing
up officials to the lanterne , were fighting out bloody debates
in States-General and National Assembly , were running
Paris with a Committee of Safety , were reveling in Sep
tember massacre and reign of Terror , were cutting off King
Louis' head and those of the aristocracy , the troops of
France were carrying the tri-color to victory against the
fillies. Before the regicide France was driving back the
Duke of Brunswick and other commanders of the syndi
cate of kings. On the day after the guillotine lopped off the
French ruler's head Dauton said : "The coallzed kings
threaten us ; we hurl at their feet , as gage of battle , the
head of a king ! " France was sturdy and patriotic in the
light against the foreign foe.
On the other hand , see what is Russia's plight ! Humili
ation heaped on humiliation ! A foreign war utterly barren
of victory ; a war ruinously expensive. While million after
million of roubles Is flung into the bottomless Avar chest ,
the people at home are without food. Each workman
carries on his back not one soldier , but the weight of a
score , starving the while. Not a spark of patriotism can
be kindled. Not a ray of hope streaks the utter blackness
of the perspective to the Far Eastward.
In Its likeness to the French Revolution the Russian
Revolution is rich in promise to the Russian masses. In
its soldiers who will not shoot , barricaded streets , Jacobin
ism , improvisation of firearms , pamphleteering , lack of
bread , vacillating ruler , rotten bureaucracy , loot of shops ,
patrollotisrn and in a hundred other resemblances the
rising has all the components of the French Insurrection.
In the aspects wherein the present case differs most
from the one of ever a century ago are seen the greatest
powers for the destruction of the Russian Empire. New

The Reign of High Prices.
problem of living is becoming every day
more and more intense for the man who re
ceives a stated salary. The purchasing power
of money is eonstanly becoming less. The
dollar will not go as far to-day as it did a few
years ago , and the dollars are just as difficult
to obtain as ever. '
There must be an end some time to this constant in
crease in the prices charged for the necessaries
of life. Either the cost must bear some relation to
the purchaser's ability to pay or else the latter must do
without the desired article. As the situation now stands ,
the rise In prices is arbitrary , fixed by some unknown and
unreachable authority , and has no apparent foundation.
Every time the housewife nowadays visits the meat shop
or grocery store she is confronted by another increase In
the cost of tilings. Expostulation and protest are of no
avail. She must meet the alternative of paying the price
or going without. Flour , butter , eggs , canned goods , even
vegetables , are all costing more now than they did a year
ago. In tlib face of this constant advance , the head of
the family is helpless. The extortion must be met , even
though it means deprivation of the little comforts and pleas
ures which formerly the surplus of the salary provided.
It is an important question , however , to know when the
era of high prices will end. It cannot go on indefinitely.
There will come a time when the burden will be greater
than the people can bear , and they will bring about a reck
oning. If the increased cost of living is due to monopolies
or trusts , some way will be found to break down their
power of controlling the output of the necessaries of life.
If the individual is made to suffer because some capitalists
can buy up and store all the eggs in the market , as is said
to be the case in Chicago , then some legislation ought to
be devised which would place wholesale robbery of the peo
ple in the catalogue of major crimes.
There would be no complaint if the salaries Increased
in proportion to the cost of living. On the contrary , they

Our Army Doctors Shamed.
HE small mortality in Japanese camps and
hospitals puts to shame the medical science
of Western armies. The report of the mor
tality in General Oku's army for seven and
one-half months of the severest campaigning
shows 24,642 cases of disease and but forty
deaths ! Only 193 men had typhoid fever , and
there were but 842 cases of dysentery. This quite aston
ishing record seems to indicate that the sanitarians and
medical men In tho Japanese army take their duties seri
ously and understand that it is their business not only to
cure but to prevent disease by instructing the men in per
sonal hygiene and by looking after the purity of their
water supply and food. The contrast between our achieve
ment and that of the Japanese suggests that our neglect
ful method , or want of method , taant be revolutionized.
The teachings of science , which we understand well
enough , must obtain actual application. "In 1S9S , " says
American Medicine , "for about the same length of time
the United States put about 275,000 men in the field , and
the deaths were 4,965 , most of them in peaceful camps and
hospitals within our own territory. If Oku's army was only
half as large ns ours , the figures would still speak loudly
for the foresight and medical skill of the Japanese. Thut
marvelous saving of human life is due to the thorough
going precautions of the Japanese government and its med
ical officers to prevent disease in the army. We Amer
icans are by no means the only nation needing to have the
lesson brought home. The English and French armies are
in the same sad plight , and to a lesser degree the German.
We have allowed the half-scorned ' '
- 'yellow man' to surpass
us in military hygiene and medicine , and the lesson should
not go unheeded. " It will no longer be permissible to let
men die like flies in camp and hospital under the impression
that a large mortality is inevitable. It may be argued , of
course , that the Japanese , having better constitutions than
Westerners have and using simpler and more whole
some foods , may be expected to meet hard conditions of liv
ing with greater success. This may be true to a certain
extent. But It is a lesson of the Jap mortality record that
the time now given by us to fancy drill would be much bet
ter employed in teaching the rank and file practical hy
giene. A new conception of the army doctor's role is also
required. Baltimore American.
Why the Sky Is Blue.
TIE sky has long been a puzzle to physicists.
There are two mysteries to explain about it
its reflection of light and its color. The old
view was that the blue of the sky was due
simpiy to atmospheric oxygen. Oxygen has
a faint blue tint , and the idea was that sev
eral miles of the gas. even when diluted as It
is in the air , would have a bright blue color.
But this did not account for the immense illumination
of the sky , and of recent years Tyndall's "dust theory , " or
some modification of it , has been generally accepted. This
regards the blue color as an optical effect , like the color or
very thin smoke , due to excessively fine particles floating
in the air , which would also account for the large propor
tion of reflected light from the sky.
Recent calculations by Prof. Sprine , of Liege , Belgium ,
however , indicate that the dust in the air is not sufficient
in amount nor finely enough divided to support this ex
planation , and he rejects it for this and other reasons.
He has gone back to the old oxygen theory , and accounts
for the general illumination of the sky on the hypothesis ,
first advanced by Ilagenbaeh. that intermingled layers of
different density in the atmosphere give it the power of
reflecting liixht. Chicago Journal.
