This shows the awful destruction of war. French troops near Amlena,
France, destroyed a railroad bridge to hinder the movements of the Germans.

Servian Soldiers Are Brave Fighters
Servla maintains only 30,000 men In times of pence, but she has mobilized
all of her male population trained to bear arms, and the number Is 324,000
men. The Servian army is largely composed of veterans with a splendid
morale and a record of first rate achievement in the Iiulkau wars.
'tie cost of
KILLING«MAN
According to figures compiled by
Gen. Perein in La Science et la Vie,
it costs so much to kill a man in
war that it hardly seems worth while.
Poison would be cheaper, if killing
were the only object.
The cost of killing a man in war is
obtained by dividing the total cost
of a war to any of the belligerents
by the number of men killed on the
other side. The Franco-Prussian war
cost France $600,000,000, and France
killed 28,600 Germans. This was at
the rate, of $21,000 per man. The
Russo-Turkish war of 1877-78 cost
Turkey $400,000,000, and Turkey kill
ed 16,600 Russians, or $15,000 per Rus
sian killed. The Russo-Japanese war
of 1905 cost Russia $1,200,000,000, so
that it cost Russia $20,400 to kill
each of the 28,600 Japs who were
Blain.
The rate varies, obviously, and no
fixed rate for killing can be figured.
Besides, when the present war is
over there will bo an entirely new
set of figures. The only certain de
duction that can be made is that the
cost is excessive, and that it would
be much more economical to distrib
ute germs of typhoid fever, say, and
kill your men that way. It would be
quite as decent, quite as civilized, as
killing them by means of war.
