“Oh,’ What’s the Use?” * . »' My brain is awhirl with the toil of the day, It splutters like sparks from a fuse. I dream of the peace of fin evening at ease.

Vienna reports that her army is strong In a battle to gain Zarody, When I read: Villach-Lienz-Rruneek-Franzenfeste— Gad! It sounds like a song parody. Near Ploecken Pass, close to Judicarien, The Germans are routed, ’tis said. South of Souchcz there’s a battle to- ’ day, With over a million dead. An advance guard has crossed the River Isonzo, Nearing the town of Trieste, To the east of Jaroslau, 10 miles out from Gousskow, A mass of artillery has pressed. King Victor Emmanuel has sent his brave men, Led by the Count .of d’Czorso; So over the Alps they go, seeking for scalps Through Praedl,Gonzagoand Gorzo. Down jtQjvard the end there’s Soisson and Liege, . And tales of the Ypres and Marne, Of Warsaw and Minsk, of Kutna and Trinsk, 1 ' And a word from the village of Dnarne.

Then the wife turns around with the most cheerful sound, Says: “Dear, please read me that news once again.” —Philadelphia Record. Place yotlr want ads in The Democrat if you want to get results.
