The Ten Thousand Greeks
BY REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

\ BOUT March 6. 4O1 b. c., Cy-
~ rus the Younger, with an
army Of 10000 men. set out
from Sardis, Asia Minor. for Baby
Ion, the capital of the Persian en-
pire, his object being to dethronc
his much-hated brother, Arta-
XerXes.
Ten thousand of the 10000 were
Greeks, hired by Cyrus. but kept
jim ignorance of the real purpose for
which he had employed them. The
army was well along toward Baby
q Ion before it was revealed to the
Greeks that they were to fight
against the Greek king. and the
distance from home being too great
for them to think of returning.
nothing was left for them but to
make the best of the situation and
win or lose along with the rest of
them.
Upon reaching CunaXa. upon the
banks of the Euphrates, about IS
miles from Babylon, Cyrus was
impetuously attacked by the king
with an army several hundred
thousand strong. The vast host OF
ArtdNcrNcs. advancing steadily.
were within less than half mile Of
the Cygciau line when the Greeks
raised the war cry and began to
move forward. As they advanced
their shouting gov louder and
louder their pace more rapid. and
at last the whole body was in
run. The Persians did not wait for
them, but turned ana ran like
sheep, the Greeks in hot pursuit.
In the meantime, Cyrus, at the
head of a chosen body Of 500 horse
men, charged the kings bodyguard
of 5000, and put them to flight.
Then Cyrus did something very
foolish, Catching sight of his
royal brother, he cried out: Il see
the man. and rushed at him with
a mere handful Of followers. II
was but the invitation Of the death
which quickly came. When It was
known that Cyrus was dead. his
Persian followers dispersed. and

A Cruel Word
Is Keen as a Knife.

That is enough to weave her
blood colors into a mans flag for
ever. But gallant sons do not wait
for al Jail or a coffin to wave their
banners. 1t seems easier oftimes to
pay the great price of loyalty and
love to our mothers than the slen-
der stipend of a daily gentleness
1t was no gallant son that snarled
at his mother this morning because
his oatmeal was cold. A hulking
brute struck his mother one day.

Another day one cut his mother to
the heart with a cruel word, 1t was
