German Privy Councillor's Book Raves
About Teuton
Power.
Privy Councillor Muthesius' book,
"The German After the War," affords
abundant material for a study of the
new German meigalomania. We see in
these pages a faithful reflection of the
Swollen -headed Hun seeking to per-
suade the world to accept him at his
own inflated valuation.
There is a chapter headed "Estab-
lishing the German Mi ht Legend,"
in which it is declared that the duty
of every patriotic German is to noise
abroad the legend of Germany's pow-
er, her invincibility, and the inevit-
able destruction of those who have
the temerity to dispute it. It is hard
to understand why Herr Muthesius
uses the word "legend," especially as
legends are usually regarded as un-
certain guides to historical truth.
Invincibility is a reputation which
Germans will acquire at the cost of
the nation which has hitherto been
regarded as the ruler of the world-
the English. And it will be the task
of Germany, when the legend of her
ingincibility has been firmly estab-
lished,to cleanse the world of "the
Britis-French-Italian filth with
which the entire globe has been cov-
ered."
It is, therefore, not•enough to be' in
possession of power. Possession must
be trumpeted abroad. No great ruler,
no world -dominating nation has ever
yet neglected the externals of power,
the symbolical representation of its
might. It is not enough, says the
author, that power is there. This
power musgt be known to all the
world, there must be no doubts about
it. Tt must be a cardinal belief of the
entire civilized world,
German Power Legend.
This is the German power legend.
The war would never have been en-
tered on, this loosening of all the low-
est human passions would never have
broken forth, had the legend of Ger-
man power been a part of the world's
convictions. E'niland would have
hesitated to drive the Continental
powers to carnage.
Another chapter in Herr Muthe-
-"Mud' book deals with "The New
World." •
The nations who, have led the world
for a thousand years are abdicating,
and a new nation is rising. The
"Geheimrat" tells us that the south-
ern countries, with their Latin kul-
tur, are played out. Their departure
from the stage is accompanied by a
deluge of words and "slobbering
abuse." Germany rises mighty and
majestic, a youthful !giant, from
whom all weapons glance off, the
stroke of the sword as well as the
poisoned word. On one side a flood
of phrases, a chaos of words, and no
deeds. On the other no words, but
firm conviction and unshakable pow-
er. France, Italy, Russia, even Eng-
land, have deceived themselves since
the war began with the sound of their
boastful utterances. Germany is si-
lent and has not even yet declared its
war aims.
Germany's eyes are opened, says
the Privy Councillor, and she now
sees that the nations she admired for
so long are no longer admirable in
any sense. They are rapidly sinking,
and for Germany they will never
again occupy the pedestal on which
Germans in their simplicity placed
them. These decadent nations no
longer show a trace of manliness.
Latin World Sinking.
After the war there will be two
serorlds—the sinking Latin world, and
the rising Germanic world, No one is
any longer in doubt as to which of
these worlds the future belonlgs.
Victory by the Germanic world,
says the author, was decreed long be-
fore the war. Italy had long been
eliminated, and as for France, her
power for a long time had only been
a matter of tradition. In this lordly
fashion Herr Muthesius waves Franco
aside,
He is more interested in the future
of the Germanic world. What nation
is to lead it? England clearly not.
With all her riches, England's
masses rema'en raw, without school-
ing, and addicted to the lowest pas-
sions. A nation like England can
never attain to the hegemony of the
Germ rie Weald. This will be Ger-
many's placo, the author assures us,
because Germany has dignity and
self-eontrel as well as power, be-
• eauso shesdlive to her ethical du-
ties toweeds her fellowmen, because
she is determined to get rid of her
pre-war faults, and "to cultivate her
slumbering+ es'Gtues to maturity."
One should learn to talk well--
alseewhen it is well not to talk.

The red shirt, destined to become
so famous a symbol throughout
Europe, was not at first adopted by
Garibaldi for any fantistie or spee-
taeular reason.
The English Admiral Ingram says
that the red shirt had its origin in
stern necessity and that its adoption
was caused by the need of clothing as
economically as possible the legion
that Garibaldi had raised for the
liberation of Italy.
An offer was made by a tradesman
to supply at a reduced price a large
stock of red woolen shirts. This of-
fer was eagerly closed on. Before
many years had passed the red shirts
became the symbol not merely of the
legion but of the new spirit working.

SUMMER HEAT
HARD ON BABY
1\'o season of the year is so danger-
ous to the life of little ones as is the.
summer. The excessive heat throws
the little stomach out of order so
quickly that unless prompt aid is at
hand the baby may be beyond all
human help before the mother realizes
he is i11. Summer is the season when
diarrhoea, cholera infantum, dysen-
try and colic are most prevalent. Any
one of these troubles may prqve dead-
ly if not promptly treated. During
the summer the mothers best friend
is Baby's Own Tablets. They regu-
late the bowels, sweeten thestomach
and keep baby healthy. The Tablets
are sold by medicine dealers or by
mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr.

E''ero Belge. The citizen resisted,
'and'' after a scuffle broke away from
his captors and fell into the canal.
Unable to swim, he began bo call for
help without eliciting response from
the German policemen, who seemed
to think this was as good a way as
any out of the situation. Just as he
was going down for the third time
the fugitive had a happy thought.
With all his remaining strength he
yelled:
• "Vive la France! Vive la France!"
A couple of Gernians dived for
him at once. He was hauled out,
taken to the lockup and the next clay,
sentenced to three months for ut-
tering seditious cries.

The Pasteur Institute of Paris has
just made the declaration that one of
the most powerful stimulants known
is milk. It has been in use for
months now as the one stimulant for
the French soldiers in the trenches,
and its effect on them has amply
justified the statement made by the
famous institute in regard to it.
Milk has been used liberally to
stimulate the French soldiers before
they go into battle and its effects
have been such that the French Gov-
ernment has urged the sale of milk,
in preference to other soft drinks,
behind the trenches when the sol-
diers go off duty for their spells of
rest and recreation.
That the qualities of stimulation
should be demonstrated on the fight-
ing men should commend the bever-
age to those engaged in the pursuits
of peace in parts of the world where
Mars does not now rule. While alco-
hol may fire the brain and dull the
sensibilities and thus impart a false
courage, milk, according to learned
scientists of the Pasteur Institute,
performs the work of keying up the
individual without affecting the
keenness of his senses or the cool-
ness of his judgment. This is neces-
sary to the mode of warfare which
this war has exemplified, but it is no
less necessary to the man working
in the office, in the studio, in the
mill, on the farm or elsewhere in the
battle for a living.
This fluid hitherto has been con-
sidered synonymous with all that is
mild and peaceful. Advocates of
preparedness have referred to "those
milk -and -water pacifists." The"milk
of human kindness" has no sugges-
tion of powerful stimulation.
Self -Conceit is a good thing not to

AUSTRIAN VIEW OF BELGIUM.
Teuton Conquest Means Subjection
Not Freedom.
Austria does not always see eye
to eye with her ally, Germany. While
the Austrian censorship sympathizes
with the anti -Russian tendencies of
Chancellor Von Bethmann-lfollweg,
it does not permit discussion of tiie
Polish question. As to Belgium, the
Socialist Arbeiter Zeitung is peririit-
ted to write as follows:
"Matters are, of course, quite dif
ferent in the west. Even the wildest
pettifogger cannot assert that there
is a work of liberation to be ac-
eomplished in Belgium and in
France; that there are here peoples
groaning under foreign rule, and that
freedom must be brouht to them by
the German sword. In the west the
principle which the Chancellor right-
ly proclaims for the east would signi-
fy not liberation but conquest --not the
freedom of peoples from foreign rule
but their subjection to foreign. rule.
The artificial reference to the long op-
pressed Flemish races cannot deceive
one about the true state of affairs. The
question of the national development
of the Flemish is a Belgian domestic
question, which the Flemings them-
selves regard as such, and for which
they seek no help from abroad. Whe-
ther Walloons or Flemings, both races
feel themselves to be Belgians and see
their salvation only within the frame-
work of an independent Belgium."
