THE LADS OF LIEGE.

''Horum omnium fortissimi stunt Bel.
gae."-Caesar's Commentaries.
The lads OF Liege beyond our eyes
They lie where beautys laurels be
With lads OF old Thermopylae
Who stayed the storming Persians.
The lads OF Liege. on glory's field
They clasp the hands OF Roland's men,
Who lonely faced the Saracen
Meeting the dark invasion.
The lads-the deathless lads of Liess,
They blaxon through the living world
Their land-the little land that hurled
olympian defiance.
Now make us room, now let US pass;
Our monarch suffers no delay.
To stand in mighty Caesars way
Beseems not Lilliputians"
We make no room-you shall not pass.
For freedom says your monarch nayl
And we have stood in Caesars way
Through freedoms generations.
And here we stand till freedom fail
And Caesar cry, ere we succumb,
Once more his horum omnium
Fortissimi stunt Belgae."
The monarch roars an iron laugh
And cries on God to man his guns;
But Belgian mothers bore them sons
Who man the souls within them:
They bar his path, they hold their pass,
They blaze in glory OF the Gaul
Till caesar cries again "Of all
The hrsvest are the BelgiansI"
o lads Of Liege. brave lads OF HegA
Your souls through glad EIysium
Go chanting: horum omnium
Portlssimi stunt BelsASi

SECULAR SHOTS AT PULPIT.

Detroit Free Press. A Philadelphia
rector blames the hate j. r. Morgan for
the war in Europe. Morgan should have
lived longer and prevented IT, we pre-
sumo.
Kansas City Journal. There Is a good
deal OF uncertainty yet as TO whether God
and the Germans will win, or whether
God and the British, God and the French
God and the Belgians. etc, will be too
strong for them.
Washington Herald: Up to date the
clergy have done their full share toward
fCmenting bitter feeling over the war
Rev. Or. Parkhurst particularly II the
presidents appeal for a strict observance
Of neutrality is to be disregarded in the
pulpits. where may we expect It to be
observed?

received their best treatment, contrary TO
their expectation, from well-to-do persons
rather than from working people Men
who have to work for their daily bread
may be supposed to have scant sympathy
for those who shirk that duty.
Houston Post: A Houston minister
says: God and satan head two great
armies operating in the world" We are
on the Lords side every time. but are
bound to admit the intrepldity, skill and
determination Of the enemy. Every branch

ceeded in throwing into the greatest dis

War Forces Simpler Fashions.

That even war has its compensations may
be gathered from the fashion decree that prom
ises to make bleached and unbleached white
stockings the correct style for the next ensuing
season. Making virtue of necessity, the manu-
facturers have decided that this is the easiest
way to worry along without the dyes and other
raw materials heretofore brought from Ger
many. but whose supply is now cut off. II we
can have simplified fashions for stockings, 1t
goes without saying that we can also have sim
plified fashions for other varieties of wearing
apparel Perhaps the war will force us to get
back to something more akin to the simple life,
not because of the agitation, but because no
other course is open.

The Telephone Wonder.

The wonders of the world are many, but
none more wonderful than the invention by
which widely separated people converse freely
with one another just as II they were In the
same room. Figures compiled to the first
OF the present year give the number of tele-
phones In use throughout the world as 1900
OOO' OF which 100000, or 66 per cent Of the
aggregate belong to this country as against
100000 or ~ per cent belonging to Europe
In this connection we are reminded the popula-
ton OF the United States is but per cent OF
the worlds population and less than 25 per cent
cent of that of Europe. We are further re-
minded that New York City alone has more
telephones than Belgium, Hungary. Italy, Meth
erlands, Norway and Switzerland put together;
Chicago has more than France. and Philadelphia
more than all OF Austria. 1t is no secret, either
that Omaha, for its population, has telephone
development exceeded by mighty few cities.

An Historic Emergency Capital.

The place Bordeaux. the temporary French
capital. holds in history is distinctly that of an
emergency seat of government. AS BurdigaIa
In ancient times, IT was the capital of the Btu
RIGGS Vivisci. then under Emperor Hadrian be-
came the capital OF AQuitania Secunda, and next
OF the Duchy of Guienne. 1t was the seat of the
splendid court of Edward the Black Prince and
during the French revolution the principal head
quarters OF the Girondists 1t retained its Off
cal prominence until after the Franco-Prussian
war. when, in 1871. 1t entertained the first sit
ting OF the National Assembly.
Bordeaux's claim TO distinction, therefore
rests exclusively upon neither its wines nor its
culture, for both OF which II is famous For II
is the source of the choicest French viands and
the center Of great art galleries libraries cathe
drals and schools and yet In addition to these
and its emergency capital fame. il is one of the
important industrial cities OF the country, be-

UNDER ONE CROSS.

Just outside the village of Napoleon's
Island there was a large common grave,
in which French and German soldiers
4 large mound marked this site i'l Herr,
again the villagers had placed roughly
hewn crosses.-From "A Story of the
War
Under one cross and in one grave
They sleep. the valiant and the brave
No line Of race nor mark Of creed,
Nor of what country or what breed
For thus the battle gives US back
The debris and the human rack,
Commingiing in one common dust
Under one cross of love and trust
Now sing the rivers where they died,
A requiem OF wave and tide
AS sweet for German as for French
There is no rank above the trench,
No hate, no strife no way to tell
What country claimed this hero's birth
Or for what land this brave boy fell
Under one cross in Gods green earth
The Teuton eagle here entwines
The triple color Of the land
That pours its blood again like wines
Red bubbling through the ruddy sand;
And Gaul no longer leers with hate
At Union-they have passed the gate
OF conflict and division here
And life let's fall one common tear
Under one cross to see them lie
With voiceless lips, with sightless eva
Under one cross the legions rest
In one green grave, above them prest
The turf that knows not each from other,
But holds them all in that great bond
That binds the brother unto brother
In rest eternal and the dream
Beyond the battles roar and gleam-
Old foemen death hath turned so fond.
The hills lift heads of blue above
This common grave; the soft winds love
To whisper to the grass their lay
OF beauty all the live-long day;
And here the footstep of the years
Shall pass and all the ampler spheres
OF action tremble, while they sleep
Under one cross-oh, piteous heap!

GERMAN DOCTOR SAYS
LOVE IS STIMULATING.

Telegram by United Press.
Berlin. March Life without love
is mere existence The purpose Of
love is to make life worth living. Love
causes a change in the nervous sys-
tenn aad otherwise in the body. The
happy feeling and elation of a loving
pair increases the circulation OF the
blood and increases the consumption
OF oxygen"
These are some OF the remarks made
by DR. Magnus Hirschfield. the famous
German authority ca sexual science.
in an address here on the sueject OF
Sex and Love-
Love is based upon laws tf nature
Of which we know little or nothing
yet" said Dr. Hirschfield but
science is now at work studying love
scientifically and trying to learn
something about the laws which cause
US 70 love one person, hate another
give US feeling Of attraction 10 one
and antipathy TO others. Objection has
been raised to the scientific study OF
love on the ground that science win
destroy some Of our fondest allusions
70 ehe domains Of the heart. Science
cannot stop for that"
Love said Dr. Hirschfield. is one Of
H.
tne most difficult subjects science has
undertaken to study. No two persons
are affected the same or have the
same experience and impression. What
made 1t still more difficult was the
iact that few persons tell the truth |
about their love affairs.
Happy love. says the scientist, has a
stimulating effect upon the brain and
nerves. 1t enlarges Hfe's horizon
Unhappy love and unrequieted love
has a very depressing effect and mar.
