THE GIRDLE OF FRIENDSHIP.

(This is one Of two score or so
poems. wise and witty, that the Auto
crat read at the reunions of his fam
Gus Harvard class of 1S29--an I'M
paralleled series, and worth remem-
bering are many of Them worth read
ing even II we did not belong TO the
class or college This poem touches
all who have lived long enough to
miss friends from the common earth
and sky till they are lonely)
She gathered nj her slender waist
The beauteous robs she wore
It's folds q golden belt embraced,
one rose-hued gem 1t bore.
The girdle shrunk, its lessenfng round
Still kept the shining gem.
But now her flowing locks 1t bound,
a lustrous diadem.
And narrower still the circlet grew;
Behold a glittering band,
Its roseate diamond set anew,
Her neck's white column spanned.
Suns rise and set; the straining clasp
The shortened links resist
Yet flashes in a bracelets grasp
The diamond on her wrist.
AT length, the round OF changes past,
The thieving years could bring,
The jewel, glittering TO the last,
Still sparkles In a ring.
So link by link, our Friendships part,
go loosen, break and fall,
A narrowing zone; the loving heart
Lives changeless through them all.

or THE LUsITANIA
TRAGEDY.

The Lusitania was sunk, with the
loss Of more than thousand inno-
cent lives. Just one year ago today.
Aside from the ravaging OF Bel
GUM and the leaving of seven million
Bclgians 10 starye, unless fed by the
humane people Of other countries, the
Lusitania tragedy was the most hor-
rible crime ever perpetrated by civ
ilized nation and Is only comparable
TO the BLACK hole Of Calcutta" In
point OF cruelty.
In the light of events the tragedy
may be discussed now with calmnoss
and appraised at Its proper value.
The Lusitania was sunk on orders
from the German government. The
number OF people aboard was fully
known. as well as the proportion OF
women and children. The German
embassy ran advertisements In tho
daily papers OF New York City warn
ing people not TO take passage on the
vessel, and the sentiment Of the Ger
mans at home and In this country
was that. the warning having issued,
those who were killed had taken the
risk knowingly, therefore were to
blame for their own deaths
That the murder was carried out so
successfully was cause for general re-
joicing in Germany and by the by
phen IN the United states. But with
that peculiar obtuseness that has
characterized the German worship OF
efficiency, OF which the Campaign
of frightfulncss was a part. the mill

Since the war began, Great Britain !
has Numbered enormously She hus

been comparable to the blunders
made by The German government in

the world.

such methods are always punished
for their crimes.

WHAT Is CHRISTIANITY.

To have courage without pugnacity,
to have conviction without bigotry, to
have charity without condescension,
to have faith without credullty, to
have love of humanity without mere
sentimentality, to have meekness with
power and emotion with sanity--that
is Christianity.

CURSE
is RECALLED IN
AUSTRIA'S BRIEF
Francis Joseph's Long Reign
in Dual Monarchy Brimful
Of Tragic Happenings.

Upon the head Of lonely old Fran
els Joseph Of Austria-"The Emperor
of Sorrows" his people affectionately
called him--rested two terrible curs SEES
that darkened his long life and made
him look forward hopefully to the
sna that brought relief.
3AA Karolyi Curse, most terrible Of
ssxs sstS. had been hurled into his
Nys face in the early years of his
reign ny q distracted Countess whose
only son hal been put to death for
participation in the Hungarian revo-
luton.
Forcing herself into the presence
of the young ruler, WHO was then only
20 years old, the frantic woman,
shaking with emotion and torn by
passions, standing before the whole
court screamed these words:
May Heaven and He'll blast your
happtness! May your family be ex-
terminated! May you be smitten in
the persons OF those you love best!
May your children be brought to ruin
and may your life be wrecked, and
yet MAY you i've on in lonely. un-
broken and horrible grief to tremble
when you recall the name Of Ka-
roful"
The face Of the boy Emperor
blanched and an awful hush came
over the assembled throng in the
great q5alloom of the palace in vien-
ma. where this scene Is reputed to
have taken place.
Then the sobbing woman was led
away. She went into retirement and
died soon afterward, still mourning
her boy and still praying that her sor-
row might be visited upon him whom
she held responsible for it.

DOCK or royalty. ana YET, Tor all we
know, the Archduke may to-day be
living next door to us, under an as

Widening the Breach.
Weighted down by the SORROWS thus
heaped upon him, the Emperor then
past so, bore his burdens silently.
Only those closest to him realized the
pain that1 ay in his heart.
After Mayerling the breach be-

for Rudolph had been one
of the strongest ties that bound Eliza
beth to detested Vienna.
Only once after that day did she
appear at a court ceremony. One who
saw her thus described her:
Leaning on His Majesty's arm,
Elizabeth looked like a very incarna-
ton Of sorrow, but sorrow in its most
beautiful and striking1y poetica1 as
pect, so that one forgot, while gaz-
ing at her, the living, pulsating, tor
tured, broken heatr, and saw only
the touching sweetness, the pensive
Of her lovely presence.

and with a long, sable-hued gossamer
veil falling from pointed jet dia-

And way down deep in the Emper-

For the gulf that lay between him
and his beautiful wife was not alto

doubtless contributed to it,
But it was the position into which
he had been born, the rigid code of
the court, and the first i1l-fee1ing
created by his proud mother, that
formed the basis Of all his ma , al
troubles, though times there were
when the Emperor may have strayed
from the narrow path which Eliza
beths would have him walk.

them both intimately, IT shall main
