Times have changed for the con-
queror.
Once the mighty general, who won
battles, changed maps, and fixed the
imprint of his mastery on world policies,
became the custodian of wealth untold.
Now the general can only profit by
that portion of the booty that his coun-
try wills he should have, and to con-
quer in great war is by no means to
be sure of a L Re freed from the cares
and worries of finance.
Lord Wolseley of England is now find
ing out this fact just as General Grant
in the United States discovered it a
generation ago.
The illustrious career of this noted
British soldier, who at one time was
spoken of as england IS only soldier, !"
is having the most pathetic of endings.
He has conducted noted campaigns
in Canada, in India, in Egypt, and in
the least civilized portions of Africa.
Almost always success has been his,
only one noted early failure being
charged against him. He did not reach
Khartoum in time to save "Chinese
Gordon who was beleaguered there.
But even this one misfortune was
shown to have been no fault of his,
and was not permitted to put any
smirches on his brilliant record.
His successes were the boast of the
army. The soldiers loved to recite his
deeds in the Burmese war, now more
than half a century ago, of how he
had fought with distinction in the war
of the Crimea, aided in the suppression
of the Indian mutiny, battled against
the Chinese in 1860, helped in the Red
river expedition of 1870, led the Asian
tee campaign of 1874, fought in South
Africa five years later, and was COM
mander-in-chief of the British forces in
Egypt in 1892 Now in his 18th year of
life, the old fighter finds. his reputation
gone, he is poor and friendless, and that
nation which once worshiped him has
turned against him.
The Boer war, which was a tragedy
to so many regulations, put Lord Wolse-
ley on the downward path.
When Wolseley was on the summit of
his fame grateful country had voted
him liberal rewards, large sum of
money being placed at his command
But Wolseley, like many another sol
der, understood little of the art of in.
vesting money. In his desire to so place
his wealth that it would bring him the
greatest possible returns, he fell into

Strong sons of freedom, we whose race
Is even as our birth and blood,
The one great pact of brotherhood
o 'erleaps the bounds of time and
space,
Thrice welcome, howith roaring runsi
How every hill and headland rings
AS if the pulse of dead sea-kings
Throbbed to the thunder of your guns.
Aye, even so in days of old,
Some fierce Morse Viking homeward
came,
The galleys burdened and afame
With sheen of silver, CLEAN of gold;
So shook the splendor of the swords,
So streamed the Red Dragon from
the mast
Till each worn ship her anchor cast,
And the glad shouting filled the fiords.
In the long, silent solitudes
And lone waste places of the sea,
Did no dim chain of memory
Awake old thoughts in multitudes,
Long buried, as in fiery lands
Whelmed ages deep in deathly night
flow
The forgotten city comes to light
Beneath some chance sent peasant g

Heard We no sounds, when all was

In sleep beneath the sleepless stars,
As if there trembled other spars,

Strange, uncouth shadows ON the

That still your brain itself would

To piece, like some snapt silken string:
Surely you must at times have seen
Sharp visions of those early years
When you sailed forth amid your
peers
To win back Sparta IS .faithless queen;
Or. haply, at later time,
Waiting your Roman eagles swoop,
You watched upon his gilded poop
The swart Illyrian pirate climb.
For still, despite the stern control
Of cycle or of century,
One thing remains forever free
The fearless, tireless, deathless SOUL
Though all things change, still chang

Sure as eternity it stands,
Waiting with bold, expeciant hands,
Whate 'er the unseen fates allot.

A destiny awaits you, higher
Than ever nerved nation s pulse
With pride their task to recognize,
And feel through all their beings
The strength of unborn millions

AS eager for the high emprize.
Not yours, like Tyre or Babylon,
To grasp at greatness for a day,
Then pass in wailing-not as they
Your destiny! Their strength is gone,
Their pride is humbled to the dust,
Even as the shadow are they flown;
Their walls are broken and Ger

In which their rulers put their trust.
Here, where the queen stole secretly
To seek her Syrian lovers kiss,
No life, save of the wind, there Isl
Lo, open to the desert SKY,
Once rich in gold and porphyry,
The chambers where high councils |
were;
And for the low-voieed dulcimer,
By night the prowling jackal s cry.
You, clear of purpose, staunch of soul, |
Not led astray by circumstance,
Not blindly trusting unto chance,
Striving straight EDWARDS to your goal,
In peace, or war, on lands or seas,
Not scorning what of good hath
been.
The heirs of all the centuries,
To hold the nations reconciled.
To give the starving millions bread,
And the broad light of progress she'd
Upon the darkness of the wild,
Till all men hail with single voice
The golden years returned anew,
Lords of world at peace, to you,

CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food

Indigestion and the attendant dis
comforts of mind and body are GER
tain to follow continued use OF improp-
er food.
Those who are still young and
robust are likely to overlook the fact
that, as dropping water will wear a
stone away at last, so will the use OF
heavy, greasy, rich food, finally cause
loss OF appetite and indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
the principle of Cause and Effect in
their daily food. A N. Y. young wom-
an writes her experience thus:
Sometime ago had a lot of trouble
from Indigestion, caused by too rich
food. / got so / was unable to d.

higher officers. Our men come too old
and stay for too short a time, in the high
command positions.
Nothing better for the navy from every
standpoint has ever occurred than the
cruise of the battle feet around the
world. The Improvement OF the ships in
every way has been extraordinary, and
hey have gained far more experience
n battle tactics than they would have
gained IL they had stayed in the Atlantic
waters. The American people have cause
for profound qualification. both in view
OF the excellent condition OF the fleet as
shown by this cruise. and In view OF the
Improvement the cruise has worked In
this already high condition. I do not
believe that there is any other service in

acter and efficiency In the enlisted men
Is as high as Is now the case In our own.
