German Emperor's Appeal.

Berlin, via London, Aug. 6-The
emperor has issued an order to the
Germany army and navy in which he
says:
After forty-three years of peace,
call upon all Germans capable of
bearing arms. We have to defend
our most sacred possessions in father
land and home against the restless
assault of enemies on all sides of us.
THAT means hard fighting. ! am
confident that the ancient warlike
spirit still lives in the German peo-
ple-that powerful warlike spirit
which attacks the enemy wherever it
finds him regardless of cost and
which in the past has been the dread
and terror of our enemies.
Il have confidence in you, German
soldiers-in each and all of you. An
ardent, indomitab'e will for victory
is living in each and all of you.
knew if needed each and all of you
would die like heroes.
Remember our great and glorious
past and that you are Germans. God
bless you"

Battle Raaes All Day.

Paris, Aug. G, 4:35 p.m.-Official
announcement is made that the battie
continues to rage around Llege, Bel
aium. The German shell fire has re-
duced two of the Lieee forts but the
Belgians continue to resist with un-
firing energy
The Germans were able to use their
light siege guns against the forts Of
a.iege, which are thirty years old
Two Of them were silenced and the
German columns broke through The
other forts are holding out. The Bel
gians are making a determined re
sistance before the ci;,.
The situation at Liege, according
to the latest dispatches were as fol
lows:
1T seemed certain that the forti-
fications could not stop the German
army. and the only question was
whether its advance could be delayed.
The Notifications already had held
for 36 hours and the fierce struggle
the Germans had made and would stin
have to make, it was believed, would
compe them to pause and reyictual
If the German army succeeds in
carrying Liege. it will find itself con
fronted by an entrenched camp at
Namur, at which the Belgians are
preparing to make stand as fierce
as that at Liege.
The Belgian army was brilliantly
fulfilling its task of delaying the Ger
man advance and it appeared certain
the German plan Of campaign in Bel
gium would be hindered by the obsti
nate stand of the Belgians.

He is with us once again,
With his heaven-ordered mission
In behalf of mortal men.
He will spin you in his motor
For a dozen miles Or more,
Though you're just a common voter
That he never saw before.
He has heard that you're a winner
From your neighbors, Smith and

Each of whom would miss his dinner
For a chance to u you down.
He can straddle all the fences
On a hundred-acre farm,
And befuddle all your senses
When he takes you by the arm.
First he pats you on the shoulder,
And he whispers in your ear;
Then he gets a little holder
And he sheds a little tear.
Yes, he weeps for those who suffer-
That's the way he makes it look;
And you're such a big old duffer
That you swallow bait and hook.

Then upon his office door
Words like these may be expected:

PRAYER.
By President Tumulty-Bug

O thou great and mighty Pap
py of Rome, dad of deception
and father Of fraud, behold US as
We fall on our bellies before thee.
Yes, Pappy, just watch us root
our noses in the dirt in order to
smell of thy holy tracks. Thou
knowest that we are thy little
yaller dogs, and whenever we
fail to do thy Romish will, then
we pray thee to kick us with thy
sacred foot. We consider it an
honor to even. be kicked by thee.
And a still greater honor to kiss
thy big toe. Poke it out here and
let us kiss it right now. Yum
yum!-how good it tastes! And
the smell of it soothes our senses
like the sweet odor of a hoss's
foot.
And now, 0 mighty Dad of
the Tiber, we beseech thee to
hear our applications. We, thy
faithful dupes here in America,
are in several bushels of trouble,
with no way of getting out unless
thou canst help us. We have ever
been mindful of thy wise counsel
with which thou hast often
warned us against the sin of
thinking or allowing others to
think. We know.that thy mighty
bald head encloses the only brain
on earth that has any right to
think for itself, and we count it
a blessed privilege to take out
thoughts ready made from thee.
But, o.. Pappy, it Igrieves our
hearts to tell thee.that there has
arisen here in America a class OF
stubborn bigots who insist on
thinking for themselves. Not
only that, but they are so wicked

preach in this case, because I've
got hundreds of times more than
any of you and am still wanting
more. If you hear of any more
mines lying around loose in Colo
RADIO or elsewhere, please let me
know. But, as | was just saying,
discomfort is a terrible bad thing
to have, and / hope you willhever
be afflicted with it. Look at the
Colorado miners-that whole
trouble grew out of their discon-

will you! The very idea of those
people wanting to cheat my

And even the children were
poisoned with that same awful
discomfort. They we're not con-
tented to sleep on a board scafold

good Sunday School, with a good
teacher like me, would have
taught those children to be con
tented with their lot. They would
have been told all about that man
sion in heaven that awaits those
who bear the burdens on earth.
That would have had a tendency
to quiet their discomfort and make
them forget their misery. [ want
the poor to be satisfied with just
as little as possible, and that
leaves more for me.

a Baldwin thug. These are the two
best agencies for getting children
to heaven. Let US prey.
