NATIONAL HYMNS.
Inspiring Anthems of the Great
States of Europe
SING THE PRIDE OF COUNTRY.
Patriotic Air* of Austria, Russia.
France. Germany, England and Nor
way—Our Own "My Country, 'Tie of
Thee,” and "Yankee Doodla.”
• The Austrian national anthem is one
of the finest in existence. It was com
posed in 179“ by that (treat nation
al composer, Haydn, who is chiefly
known to concert goers by his magnifi
cent oratorio ‘The Creation.” in which
occurs the splendid and florid chorus.
“The Heavens Are Telling.” The an
them was based upon an old national
aong. but Haydn made it a thing of
beauty. It is the only national an
them composed by a musician of the
foremost rank.
But the song which is sung in cities
by civilians is not always, or. indeed,
generally, the'one sung by-the soldiers
who have to bear the brunt of battle
and siege and march. The battle song
of the Austrian soldier is "Prinz Eugen
der edle Ritter," which tells how the
noble cavalier. Prince Eugene of Sa
voy. laid siege to and captured Bel
grade from the Turks in 1717. It ought
to be a good song for the purpose, for
it was actually written in the trenches
before Belgrade.
Probably the most stately national
anthem is the Russian. Its very title.
“G&d the Ail Terrible.” seems to strike
a heroic strain. Sung by a great
mass of peasaut soldiers with simple
fervor its effect is grand in the ex
treme. Played upon the great organ
in the cathedral at Moscow it sounds
like a prayer. Not only are the words
very poetical, but the tune is forceful
and haunting.
Os course the greatest of all war
songs pure and simple is unquestion
ably "The‘iftarseillaise.” What mem
ories it has clinging to its fervidly pa
triotic words! It was the song of the
French revolution and did more to
bring down the dynasty of the Bour
bons than hair a dozen army corps.
Jt was called by the name which still
is universally applied to it. because
the men—and women—of Marseilles,
the port of the Mediterranean, march
ed all the way to Paris, singing it as
they went its first fruits were reap
ed a few days after their arrival,
when the hated Bastille fell to its
strains. It is now the national an
them of republican France.
In Germany no patriotic song lias
been sung with such fervor as the fa
mous battle hymn of the Germans.
"Die Wacht am Rhein” ("The Watch
on the Rhine”). It was written in
JB4O. but remained practically un
known until the outbreak of the war
•with France, when it was sung by ev
ery soldier and every man, woman
and child throughout the German em
pire. "The Watch on the Rhine” was
to Germany at that time what “The
Marseillaise” was to France—a sou)
stirring composition which made men
eager to take up arms and fight for
the cause which they thought was
Tight.
England's national anthem is a Geor
gian product and originally opened
•with the words. “God bless great
George, our king.” It has been bon
* ored by Beethoven with seven varia
tions for the piano, and it is intro
duced into his "Battle Symphony."
Gn the whole, perhaps, the tune to
which, is sung “God Save the King"
has probably the largest circulation of
' any tune in the world. Then there is
“Rule, Britannia,” which was compos
ed by Dr. Arne, the English musician,
who wrote sjeveral operas. “Rule.
Britannia.” was included in the
•'Masque of Alfred.” a musical farce
produced in 1740.
Just as the Austrian national anthem
is the only one set to music by a great
composer, so the Norwegian anthem is
the only one whose words were writ
ten by a real poet. This was Bjorn-
Mtjerne Bjornson. On one occasion he

End such misery now! Get the

pleasure out of bis fame its a national
poet. He replied: “It was when a
delegation from the Right came to
my bouse in Christiania and smashed
a’ll my windows. Because when .they
had done all the damage they could
and were starting home again they felt
they ought to sing something. So they
began to sing. ‘Yes. We Love This
Land of Ours.' They could do nothing
else. They were obliged to sing the
aong of the man whom they bad at
tacked!”
Singularly enough, the country which
has the best variety of patriotic an
thems is the country which has had
less warfare than any other, the Unit
ed States of America. Her songs are
fine.
The real national anthem of America
is "My Country. Tis of Thee," and it is
sung to the same tune as “Ged Save
the King." But perhaps the real, genu
ine. rock bottom anthem of America,
after all, is the famous “Yankee
Doodle.” wh|cb has the great advan
tage of being a real marchiug song,
which not only helps to keep the men’s
spirits from flagging, but also helps to
keep them in step. A band playing
“Yankee Doodle” would take a regi
ment ten miles farther than any other
tune!—London Tit-Bits.
Cutting.
In a case tried in a Philadelphia
court the prosecuting attorney had a
good deal of fun at the expense of
counsel for the defendant each of
whom seemed as stupid as the other.
“Ignorance of the law,” interposed
the Judge at a certain Juncture, “is
no excuse for violation of law.”
“May I inquire of your honor.” asked
the prosecuting attorney, “whether
your honoris remarks are directed at
the defendant or his counsel?” —Ex

MEAT BONESL
Many Way* In Which They May Be
Utilized ae Nourishing Food.
One of the food exiierts of the United
States department of agriculture says
that almost any meat bones can be
used in soupnuiking and if tbe ment Is
not all removed from them tbe soup is
better. But some bones, especially the
rib bones, if they have a little meat left
on them, can be grilled or roasted into
very, palatable dishes.
Tbe “spa rerib" of southern cooks Is
made of tbe rib bones from a roast of
pork and makes a favorite disli when
well browned. The braised ribs of beef
often served in high class restaurant*
are made from the bones cut from rib
roasts. In this connection It may bj
noted thnt many of the dishes |>opular
In good hotels are made ut portions of
meat such as are frequently thrown
away In private houses, hut which
with proper cooking and seasoning
make attractive dishes and give most
acceptable variety to the menu.
Au old repipe for "broiled bones” di
rects that tbe bones (beer ribs or sir
loin bones on which the meat is not
left too thick in auy part) be sprinkled
with salt and pepper tcayenue) and
broiled over a clear Are until browned.
Anolber example of tbe use of bones
Is boiled marrowbone. The bones are
cut In convenient lengths, the ends cov
ered with a little piece of dough over
which a floured cloth is tied and cooked
in boiling water for two hours. After
removing tbe cloth and dough tbe
bones are placed upright on toast and
served. Prepared as alsive. the Itoues
may also be baked in a deep dish
Marrow is sometimes removed from
bones after cooking and seasoned and
served ou toast.—Pittsburgh Press.

ENGLISH FEMALE PORTERS.
Muscular Women Carry Heavy Load*
In Covent Garden Merket.
Visitors to Coven Garden market,
the great, flower market of London,
will find that In addition to much floral
beauty there is a wholesome, muscular
athletic womanhood that is good to
look upon to be found among tbe wom
en porters. Tbe flowers that are *old
in huge quantities In this market are
bought by retail flower dealers, to
whose vans the flowers must be deltv.
ered in the surrounding streets. Thq
work of carrying is done largely by
women, and the Coveut Garden wom
an porter is one of London's character
studies.
These women, who carry loads of
flowers on their beads, are hardwork
ing. conscientious workers. As * rule,
their hours are. from 5 to 9 tn the
morning—not long perhaps, but during
that time the women do wbat might
well be considered a good day's work.,
It is not light work, us a woman por
ter frequently carries two dozen large
pots of plants on her head over a dis
tance of several hundred yards. Light
and heavy loads may or may not come
alternately, but all are accepted cheer
fully. The payment, as a rule, is ade
quate. hut depends upon tbe generosity
of the temporary employer.
The powers of endurance these wom
en possess are quite remarkable, and
tbe work agrees with them. One wom
an recently pointed with pride to her
daughter,« girl of twenty, with cheeks
glowing with health and muscles that
would do credit to any system of phys
ical culture. Tbe girl bad been deli
cate. but a few weeks' work in the
flower market caused a decided im
provement. which increased as time
went on.
A somewhat odd recognition of their
work is received annually by these
flower porter* in the shape of a shawl
and two aprons each, a gift from tbe
Duchess of Bedford.—Loudon Mirror.
Another Way Out.
Waiter Damrosch. the musical con
ductor. played in •1! youth in a noted
orchestra. He wore, as is the way
with musicians, long hair and unusual
ly bushy besides.
A thin haired violinist seated behind
Mr. Demrosch in the orchestra used
to take exception to the young man’s
coiffure. He said one day:
"Look here. Damrosch. Why don’t
you get your hair cut? Then maybe
I could see the conductor."
Mr. Damrosch answered calmly over
his shoulder:
“Why don’t you learn to play better?
Then you'd sit in front of me.
Stsvenson’s Whimsical Attiro,
Here 1* a. picturesque glimpse of
Stevenson's whimsical attire as given
in the “Collected Essays of Edmund
Gosse:"
“Stevenson was not without a good
deal of innocent oddity in his dress.
When I try to conjure up his figure I
can only see a slight, lean lad in a suit
of blue sea cloth, a black shirt and a
wisp of yellow carpet that did duty
for a necktie. This was long his at
■tire, persevered In to tbe anguish of
his more conventional acquaintances.
1 have a ludicrous memory of going
in 1878 to buy him a new hat. in com
pany with Mr. Lang. the thing then
upon bis hend having lost tbe sem
blance of a buninn article of dress."

cattie. and by the bilge muscle* which

EXPLODING EXPLOSIVES.
On* of Two Methods, Combuation er
Detonation, Is Used.
An explosive
the influence of heat or shock, or both,
la. speaking popularly. Instantaneously
resolved entirely or almost so into
gunex. ' -j
Practical explosives inoiint either of i
bodies such as nitroglycerin and ultro
cellukme. which are explosive in them
selves or mixtures of Ingredients
which separately or may be non
explosive, but 'when intimately mixed
are caimble of being exploded.
Explosives are exploded either by
simple ignition, ns lu tbe case of black
gunpowder, or by means of a detonator
containing mercury fulminate.
Tbe molecules of an explosive may
be regarded an In a state of unstable
ehemlcnl equilibrium. A stable state of
equilibrium Is brought about by the
sudden decomposition of (be original
comisxuiid* with tbe evolution of beat
An explosion is thus an extremely rapid
decomposition, accompanied by the pro
duction of a large volume of gas and
the development of much beet
There are tyo well defined modes of
explosion which can be described as
combustion and detonation. In the
former case tbe explosive Is simply Ig
nited. and combustion takes |dace by
transference of beat from layer th layer
of tbe explosive. The rapidity with
which the combustion proceeds de
pends not only on tbe physical form of
the explosive, but also on tbe pressure
under which tbe decomposition takes
place. When In tbe form of fine grains
combustion proceeds much more quick
ly than vfhen tbe grains are large.
Detonation, on the other band, has to
be started by a sufficiently stymg im
pulse. such as tbe explosion of a
charge of mercury fulminate; it pro
ceeds much more rapidly and is due to
the formation of an explosion, wave
that has a velocity of thousands of me
ter* a second.
“High" explosives indicate those,
such as dynamites and nitrate of am
monla explosives, which detonate and
have a greater shattering power than
the “low” explosives. New York
