every appearance tho kingdom of tho
Csar was founded on a rock. Hla
power was absolute and seemed Im
pregnable. But all this was but
Idle seeming and the whole structure
.-rumbled to dust nt the first touch
of adversity. The old.time poem
that we used to recite on Friday af

fact that It Is “men who mako a
