Robert G. Ingersoll's Vision.

A vision Of the future arises. l
see world where thrones have
crumbled and where kings are dust.
The aristocracy of idleness has neri-
ished from the earth. / see a world
without a slave. Man at last is
free. Natures forces have by science
been enslaved. Lightning and light,
wind and waves, fros. and flame,
and all the subtle powers Of the
earth and air are the tireless toilers
of the human race. ! see a world
at peace, adorned with every form
of art, with music's myriad voices
thrilled, while lips are rich in which
no exile signs, no prisoner mourns;
world on which the gibbet's shadow
does not fall. a world where labor
reaps its full reward, where the
poor girl, trying to earn bread with
a needle-the needle has been called
the asp for the breast of the poor
is not driven to the desperate
choice of crime or death, of suicide
or shame / see world without
beggaf's outstretched palm, the
miser's heartless, stony stare, the
piteous wall of want, the livid lips
of lies, the cruel eyes of scorn. l
see a race without disease of flesh
or brain-shapely and fair, married
harmony of form and function-and,
as 1 look, life lengthens, joy deep
ems. love canopies the earth; and all
in the great dome shines the eternal
star or human hope,

knew how fundamentally weak and

So Germany rushed into war with a

For four long end weary years the
German people have been waiting
for victory. Yet it has taken their
