The Horizon.
On land as well as in the Black Sen the inexhaustible power of Ruseian forces is being felt by a Frond enemy, and later news wilk roveal Bill greater and more im pressive facts. No one can scan the daily list of casualties without pondering, over the lamentable. loss of life, but we have long since accepted the inevitable truth that conquest means sacrifice in more ways than one. It is the price of viotcry, and we as a people, as well as our loyal | Allies, ere content to give up the flwer of our manhood as well as vast material in order that pos.. terity may be saved from despot- ism and honour remain" un- tarnished. On both the eastern and western sides there is abund- ant ground for strong conviction to-day that we are on the winning aide, that heroes are doing and dying in order to protect heartb and home, and it is only a question of a few months before the victory we set out to gain at all coste éhall be won by the allied forces."

Reflections on War.
It is trae that modern methods have removed much of the ap- parent brutality of war. Oar bluejackets no longer board the enemy's vessels with out-lasses held in their teeth, as in the good. old days of Captain Marryat; they slaughter each other with scientific precision, at a distance correspond- ing roughly to the horizon. Our saldiers fight with equal effective- ness out of sight of the enemy, But for the latter there ocmos a time when the old hand to-hand.conflict decides the day, and the killing of a man a necessity. On such occasions, it is said, the soldier "Bees red," a significant phrase in i'all. One wonders, however,"
whether, the sanctity of human life does not become a mere phrase not only to those who do the kill- ing but to those who read of it. I the moral tone of a nation raised by the reading of tales of alanghter? War is war and will remain war, even though we aalve over the ugly scene with those deeds of heroism and self-ssorifice which rightly command our praise,

Thus there bas been arrived at the "stand-. ardised soalan," the assumed absence of which has led to most peraioioas assumptions, with the result that the discontent of the workers is kindled or fanned.
