Daddy; sBedtirne
r. The Baby
-- Among the
Ice Cakes.

"$E%EACHER said, just before school closed, that the people who lived
she mean. daddy?'
hemes'" replied daddy. And all the other advantages that come from a eli
mate where men have the best chance to do things, like learning and build
Ing fine houses and studying how to answer little boys questions. For in
stance, she meant how much luekier it was for a little white baby in this
town than for a a little Eskimo baby among the ice cakes.
The Eskimo children live in snow houses up toward the north pole,
which brave Admiral Peary discovered, you will remember There are Ice
and nov there all the year around. The whole family have to wear fus to
keep warm, the baby IS well a the rest He looks very funny. with his
hair all black and shiny, like al Indians, and his funny beady black eyes
and his little fat nose and yeIlowish-brewn cheeks. He's such a homey baby
that he's petty-you know that kind.
There aren't any nurses Or servants to wait on that baby, you may be
sure. He isn't so very old before he is rolling and tumbing around the floor
of the snow hut all done up in his furs, like q little round potato, and his
papa and mamma and the other children have to be careful not to step on
But l guess they never do, for they're used to stepping over babies in
the snow hus.
AFTER he is weaned his mamma gives him a string of blubber % suck
to keep him still. Blubber is the fat oily meat from a whale. And the
little Eskimo baby enjoys that blubber just a much Is you children would
enjoy a stick OF candy. You see he neve had any candy and he never had
any circus layout or toy gun or drum or anything like that But he is a
happy and conhnted baby, for he is satisfied with what he has because he
tie children in Amerha.
When the babys family is moving from n place to another where the
hunting and fishing areg good he is sung n a little pack, like an Indian boy,
and carried on the back of his mother. For the Eskimo papa is much like
an Indian papa in that he lets the mamma do a great deal of the work
Sometimes white traders visit a n Eskimo village with beads and other
pretty tihes. and then the baby has a great time, for they give him II or
two to play with, and suppose he would swallow them if he we're not
watched just al a white baby would do"

A pav VIII Come.

Victor Hugo: A day will come when
on the battle field will be the market
oren to commerce and the mind opon-
ing to new ideas. a! day will come
when bullets and bombshells will be
replaced by votes. by the universal
suffrage of nations. by the venerable
arbitration of a. great sovereign sem
ate, which will be to Europe what the
parliament is to England, what the
diet is to Germany what the legisla-
tive assembly in France. A day will
come when a cannon will be exhibited
in public museums. just as an instru-
ment of torture is now, and people
will be astonished how such a thing
could have been. A day will come
when these two immense groups, the
United States of America and the
United States of Europe, shall be seen
placed in presence of each other, ex-
tending the hand of fellowship across
the ocean.

TUESDAY, AUG. rs, 1914.
GERMAN VICTORY.

The news today reveals the fact or
"a great German victory all along the
battle front. Everywhere the allies
seem to be beaten back by the over
whelming forces Of the kaiser. The
first victory was in Lorraine, where the
French offensive movement was
kcrumpled up and the French forces
Iwere hurled back into the Nosges
mountains in France.
This has been followed by a defeat
iof the French and English forces all
along the lin in Belgium, and it is
now conceded by the French experts
that the allies must drop back into
EFrance and make another stand along
1.-THE strongly fortified French frontier
Whether or not this victory of the
can be rightfully termed d
| crushing defeat of the allies will prob
kably not be known for some days. II
1.-THE Germans are prepared to follow II
| up, and strike before the allies can pre-
mare for another defense it may prove
1.-THE turning point in the war.
II must be remembered, however,
kthat it is a long way to Paris, a way
kthat bristles with Notifications and the
kFrench and English will make a des-
operate rally. England will probably
Apourin more troops and Germanys

| And in the meantime Russia is be-
! ginning to be heard from with telling
effect in eastern Prussia. Already the
forces of the car have won sweeping
victories and have gained some I'M
lportant strongholds, notably lnster-
burg. which controls a great network
or railroads in northeastern Germany
Have the allies been so declslVeIy
Ebeaten in Belgium that some OF the
Nkaiser's forces a be safely with
drawn to face the Russian invasion?

Why Cardinal Gibbons Is
Opposed to Woman Suffrage

NATIONS, arrangements, or the last act
of the drama is often divorce.
When l depreoate female suffrage, l
am pleading for the dignity of woman,
l am ~Contending for her honor, l am
striving to perpetuate those peerless
p~rerogatives inherent in her sex. those
charms and graces, which eXalt Wo-
and make her the
and the coveted companion of man.
We must remember that though wo-
man does not personally vote, she eX-
ercises the right of suffrage by proxy.
So powerful is the influence which a
sensible matron eXerts over her hus-
band and sons, that they will rarely
fail to follow her counsel which comes
from an inspired instinct rather than
from labored reasoning. When the son
of Themistocles asked a favor of his
father who was a Grecian general,
Themistocles replied: My SON., l can
not grant you that favor, you must
have to your mother. For, l
rule Athens, Athens rules Greece,
Greece rules the world. but your moth
er rules me-"
Woman is queen indeed, but her m
pire is the domestic kingdom. The
greatest political triumphs h would
achieve in public life, fade into insig-
nifeance compared with the serene
glory which ra01ateS from the comes
tic shrine, and which she iliumines
and warns by her conjugal and moth
erly virtues. If she is ambitious of the
dual empire of public and private life,
then like the tabled dog beholding his
image in the water, she will lose both,
she will fall from the lofty pedestal
where nature and christianity have
placed her, and will fail to grasp the
sceptre of political authority from the
strong hand of her male competitor.
Though woman is deharred from Vot-
ing, she brings into the world and
the cradle of the nations future
citizens. She rears and moulds the
character of those who are to be the
future rulers and statesmen; the
heroes and benefactors of the country.
Surely this is glory enough for her.
When a Roman matron expressed her
surprise to Cornelia, the mother of the
Gracchi, that she wore no Jewels on
her person, Cornelia was silent till she
greeted her sons returning from
school; and then she exclaimed, point
to her children: "These are my
Jewels which l will bequeath to the re-
public" If Cornelia, instead Of snap
ing the minds and hearts OF her sons
to deeds of virtue and patriotism at
home. had wasted her time In the Ro-
man Forum, history would never have
recorded the noble exploits OF the
|Gracchi. Very sincerely yours,
J. Card. Gibbons,
Archbishop of Baltimore.

Walt Whitman's Conservatism.

Thomas B. Harmed in Case and
Comment: With all of his radicalism,
walt whitman was ofttimes cOnserv-
ative. This was because of his proc
found sense of justice. When the great
Emperor william of Germany died
Whitman wrote a poem called The
Dead Emperor, which gave much Of
tense to many of his radical friends,
who could not see why q. monarch
should be called "a good mana faith
full shepherd.
He had a great admiration for
Queen Victoria. He said that III peo-
pie should be eternally grateful for
Victoria's sympathy for the union
during the civil war. 81 feel for one"
he said, ~"strongly grateful to Victoria
for the good outcome of that struggle
the war horrors and finally the pres
ervation of our nationality"
He. said words of defense for Pres1-
dent Cleveland, when there was eriti-
cism because he sent a present to the
pope at the time of his jubilee. | cite
these cases to prove that Whitman
believed in government, in law, in the
acceptance of present conditions until
we could better them.
/ remember in the ear 1887 Sidney
Morse, a sculptor from Boston, spent
many days with Whitman in Camden,
making a bust of him. Morse had an
| archistic tendencies. The day the Chi
cago anarchists were hung he was
! very Respondent, Whitman said to
him:
1T won't do, Sidney; we must have
! policemen, law, order and such things
| until the human critter can get along
| without them, and that is a long way
off, We can't throw bombs, ana kill
people, even IL they are policeman.

Story of George Moore.

New York Times: George Moore,
novelist and dramatist, was born in
Ireland. in 1853, and is the son of the
late George H. Moore, member of par
lament, of Moore hall, Ballyglass,
County Mayo. He studied art under
.Llytin in London, and completed his
education in France. His first efforts
in literature were confined to the mag
azines, and under the title Notes and
Sensations, he contributed to The Lon
don Hawk, His first publication was a
volume of verse, Flowers of Parnas-
sus, 1877, which was severely criticiz-
ed. For a long time his critical work
was regarded as of more permanent
value than his novels. He allied hkn-
self with Martin and Yeats in found
ing the Irish Literary theatre in Dub
lin. In the preface to his comedy, The
Bending Of the Bough, he defines his
interest in the movement for the re-
Vival of the Celtic tongue and htera-
ture as rising solely from alarm over
the present course of English fiction"
He regarded modern English literature
as wholly given up to the mere por-
trayal of manners, facts and social
customs and advocated the return
to the novel of human passion ana
moral IDEAS France, alone, he said,
had followed the truth in literature,
and he threw in his lot with the French
school. Some of his novels have arous-
ed vigorous protest as being unduly
realistic, but his power of keen obser-
walton and delicacy of appreciation
have won admiration. He is the author
Of the following works, besides those
already mentioned: Pagan Plums,
1881; A Modern Lover, 1883; A Mum-
mer's Wife, 1884; Literature at Nurse.
1895; Al Drama in Muslin, 1886; Par

be together-concentrated. 1t will nor
risk division, with the chance that in
seeking to unite one part may be over
Whelmed by the whole British force. II
being probable that even when united
the total is less than the British ag-
gregate, it is natural to suppose that
the time of waiting will be ~signalized
by attempts to reduce this margin by
attacks of torpedo boats, of sub
marines, and very probably of air
craft. In this war we may look for
of these new means of warfare; for
the opponents are skilled, enterpris-
ing, and trained, which was not the
case with the Belgians in he naval
war of ten years ago.
l should imagine hat the blockade
proper would be maintained by a very
numerous body of light cruisers and
torpedo vessels, SO near the entrance
as effeCtually to watch all attempts of
hostile torpedo vessels to come out.
The main fleet, the necessary object of
the enemy's torpedoes, would remain
out Of sight by day; and after dark
would change position, to be less
readily found by n submarine that
should elude its wv scouts. Air craft
will be met with air. craft. Most cur-
rent reasoning on the new weapons of
war proceeds on the vicious aSsump-
ton that these new weapons will en-
counter. only the battleship, overlook
ing that they must also meet their
own kind.
I believe the probabilities all are that
when the collision comes the British
numbers will be superior; that wheth-
err soon or late, he Germans, if they
fight at all. must accept this very seri-
Gus disadvantage. OF course, the ques-
ton of relative efficiency enters. 1
know no reason to believe that of the
Germans to be greater. Their thor
oughness is known, and 1 nav had
described to me, by a British officer of
German family relations, he mode Of
imparting knowledge practised on
their conscripts. 1t suggested to me
somewhat the process of fattening tur-
keys for Christmas. The advantage
the British have. in my judgment, is
that their enlistment system for the
crews is voluntary and continuous;
that of the Germans conscript and
short service. So far as this is true,
the contrast is that between a lifelong
profession, with it's acquired second
nature, and that of an episodical per-
iod in the main course of life.
