War as an Instructor. Not only is it true that peace baa her victories, bat also that war baa duties in the ways of peace. The first step io war is to instrnct soldiers. The military regiment strictly followed by thousands of young men can be an invaluable tonic, physically, mentally and morally, to our people. Subordi nation of their individual to the wel fare of the whole is a valuable lesson for a democracy. Simplicity of diet, regular exercise and out-of door life will infuse etrepgth into flabby mua cles and rouse the blood to active cir culation. Rapid increase of wealth and luxury have given a certain de morilisation to yell-io do familiee, which self denial and eelSimposed hardship will rapidly counteract. Our volunteer troops will gain a practical knowledge of sanitary re quirements which will be invaluable. They will be given inslrucliona by competent autboritiea on the actual garments they wear, as well as the food they eat. It ia an established fact that during the civil war the health of the southern people during all the period el enforced privation waa unexampled salubrity. It is only necessary to regard the magnificent physical development of our regular troops to realise what ac tual military service may do for volun leer organisations.—Chicago Timee- Herald lio-Terltoc for Fifty Cents.
