The Real Universal Language.
From the Christian Herald.

One day. when the Belgian soldiers
We're gathered together for Il little rest
back of the lines, one told the others
about a song he had learned. At the be-
ginning of the war he had lived for some
months as a refugee i'm England before
volunteering for service. The lady where
lie lived, as Peter put 1t. had the good
custom of reading the bible every day
and singing hymns, etc" AS the boy did
not understand English. he got nothing
from the reading of the bible nor the
singing of the hymns, except that he was
much struck with one Of the latter, which
he heard sung every day. and learned
the Words-which meant nothing to him
by heart.
Peter and the others were naturally
curious to hear this song, so at Peters
invitation the boy Offered to sing 1t for
them. "He was so in earnest. as if he
understood what he sang" Peter wrote.
and you can know how / was touched
by the song, which was:
Jesus. Saviour, pilot me
Over life's tempestuous sea;
Unknown waves before me roll.
Hiding rock and treacherous shoal,
Chart and compass come from Thee;
Jesus, Saviour. pilot me-"

PariS.-QuestionS of paramount in
terest in America often fail to present
themselves at all TO the French finan-
cial mind; usually ecaus they are
not of immediate interest here. This
is the case With the curious American
talk about maintenance of the gold
standard in Europe after the war. So
fan as know. the question has not
been considered here at all. Every
practical financier would at once dis
miss ii as random and useless Specu-
latlon. ii only for the reason that all
war finances have been engaged ON a
gold foundation and that all the imam
cial conferences of ali the worlds ma
tions would never be able to diSen-
tan.le them.
In another sense, however. financial
Paris is beginning to notice the gold
question which. the cables tell us. is
occupying the New York %financiers.
Ihe financial editor of the Paris
lDebats. who has become i'm a way an
authority ON war exchange. has from
he beginning insisted ON the necessity,
and not the utility alone, of the allies
sending gold in large amounts to the
y nlted States. 1t was not to pay for

No one attending the wonderful
photoplay, Civilization" at the WASH
ington Opera House last night, could
have failed to have been thrilled by
the wonderful scenes shown on the
screen. War and all Of Its horrors
were shown with startling reality.
The picture is splendid argument
for peace and has q splendid moral
for every one. Many who saw the pic
ture took the moral to be for the rul-
ers Of nations, but this is net 30. The
moral is for every man, woman and
child and he is indeed lacking in
mental powers that cannot see the
great teaching Of the picture.
Every person In Maysville should
see this picture tonight, the last
