Views OF The ress
The National Song of Italy

T. VERYONE is familiar with the
stirring words and inspiriting
- melody Of the ''Marseillaise,"
and the words and music of the
watch on the Rhine" are likewise
widely known, but there are few peo-
pie in this country. probably, outside
those of Italian origin, who know
anything about the "Hymn of
Mameli," as the Italian national song
is called from the name of the gall
liant lad who composed it only two
years before he died, at the early
age of twenty-five, from the effects
Of a wound received in battle.
Goffredo Mameli, the author, as we
learn from the July number OF
LdrouSSe MeRsuel (Paris), was the
son of Rear-Admiral Giorgio Mameli
of the Italian navy, and was born
at Genoa in 1927. In 1S47 Lombardy
and Venice undertook to throw off
the irksome Austrian yoke. Young
Mameli, who had evinced an ardent
patriotism ever since his adolescence,
was among the first to take arms in
the struggle against the army OF
Radetski, giving a good account of
himself in various battles and later
becoming a follower of Garibaldi in
the instructions of that epoch, He
was wounded in the leg during the
defense of Rome on June 8. 1S49, am
putation was found necessary on
June 10, and on July 6, three days
after the fall Of the Roman republic,
the youthful poet and soldier laid
down his life.
"ais hymn, animated with the
pure ardor of the patriot and the
warrior, was at first the song Of the
volunteers from the plains of Lom-
hardy. then that of the Garihaldians;
it then bore the title Of FrdfelN
d'ItaIid (Brothers OF Italy). II was
not destined to be forgotten. A
year after the death of the poet his
works were edited at Genoa with a

The burden OF Charles s. Mellen' $
testimony in the New Haven direct
ors suit IS this; He felt Obliged to
consolidate New England transporta-
ton lines 10 prevent competition;
"iust cut-throat work on both sides"
What the New Haven's former presi-
dent and master has not testified is
this He paid such outrageously
high prices for competitors that he
swamped his own railroad much
more swiftly and effectually than any
correction could have done. There
was piled up vast unremunerative
caDitai upon which the staggering
New Haven could not earn decent
return. 1t could not maintain its
road and its equipment in standard
shape. ~
It may be that the cut-throat policy
outlined by Mr.. Mellen was bad
thing for lhose whose jugular veins
were lacerated. Perhaps its contin-
rance would have proved bad for
New England also; but the known
facts are that Mr.. Mellen's method Of
f-opping It aroused bitter hostility in
six states: that il brought the rail-
road which put an end to throat-cut-

moVing preface written by the pa
triot, Mazzini. Henceforth the
poems of Goffredo Mameli, and nota-
bly, FrateHi d'Itdlid, now called the
Hymn of Mameli, were learned by
heart by the school-children."
The music to which the glowing
and ardent words of the poem were
set was written by a compatriot of
the young poet only five years his
senior. This composer, Michele No
varo, was likewise born at Genoa.
He lived until 1885 and his graceful
and romantic melodies were well
known and much esteemed.
The various couplets of the Hymn
of Mameli make a direct appeal to
italian patriotism by their references
to glorious and memorable events in
the history of the nation.
Even persons unfamiliar with
Italian cannot fail to be impressed
by the ringing melody Of these lines,
and the forcefulness impaired by the
skilful use of repetition and inver-
sion. A literal translation is as
follows:
brothers of Italy, Italy is aroused,
With the helmet of Scipio she binds
her brows.
Where hideth Victory? Let her
bare her head.
For the slave of Rome, God hath
created her.

Bad Breath
BY WILLIAM BRADY, MD.

A COATED tongue Is the COM
~ monest cause of bad breath.
n Especially the coating upon
the back part OF the tongue, which
Is noticeable in so many people who
consider themselves perfectly well.
Chronically diseased tonsils and a de-
cayed tooth or two may be the
cause of this coating. At any rate,
the condition is often improved by
scraping off the coating as far back
as possible by means Of the handle
of a shears or some similar blunt
instrument.
Chronic nasal. catarrh Is factor
in a large number of cases. SIM
Pile home treatment, both local and
general, improves matters consider
ably. We viii be glad to send let
ter of suggestions about catarrh to
anyone who will send stamped,
addressed envelope with a request.
Digestive disturbances often cause
a foul breath. Intemperance, be 1t
in alcoholic beverages or just plain
food, causes bad breath by engorg-
ing the portal circulation. The
portal circulation is the great drain
age system of the alimentary canal
which conveys the blood through the
veins into the liver. Now the veins
draining the esophagus, throat, base
of tongue and nasal passages, COM
municate directly with the portal
veins. Hence anything which en-
gorges the portal area, such as alco-
holic indulgence or over-eating,
causes also more or less engagement
of the throat and nose. This inter-
feres with the free function of the
mucous membrane, making the
mucous glands torpid and inactive,
the retention of excretory material
producing an odor. Hence diet, tenn
perance. exercise, free water drink
ing and general measures directed

ting to the brink Of bankruptcy and
left the whole carrying business or
New England in a demoralized condl-
tion. Thus the game played for New
Haven by Mr.. Mellen and his asso-
ciates was bad for the territory sery-
ed and even worse for their own
property.
There may be justification In a
monopoly that brings heneficent re-
suits. When monopoly ruins the

comes an economic absurdity and a
crime. The Melen monopoly didn't
do anything which II apparently set
out to DO except to drive out comDet-
itors; but It speedily wrecked itself
IN doing it. II is hard to forgive
