WHAT GERMAN SOLDIERS ARE READING IN THE TRENCHES AND ON THE MARCH

A Chicago business man, friend of Hans Koll. this city, writing from Maam Jaw Junction, ftiinilt sent the ( following excerpt from the Literary Digest to the local insurance man: - - Mark Twain is said to be a popular author at the German front. Not Marie Twain In his Yankee vernacular, ' but translated Into a tongue of . which his own description is, "You dive j blindly In at the beginning of a sentence and come out at the other end with a verb In your mouth." In the same medium soldiers fighting for Germany read, we are told, an English author, Baden-Powell's "Adventures of Spy." The German, of course, does not neglect his own authors. Goethe, says Gilbert Hirsch, writing in the Nw Vorw Evenina Past. Is "oerhaos r the most popular book in the German army." ouch a fact forces tais wmer .to the conclusion that to the question co often heard in America. "Where is the old, simple Germany that loved poety and philosophy?" the answer is At the front, flsrhtina in the trenches ,in Trance; in the snows of Russia." Ha says: "I have read a letter from a highschool boy of 18, lying in a trench near Arras Viotnrinir hla narants to send ilm a copy of the German Bible; a letter from a lieutenant, nau-trozen In the snows of a Karpathian winter, who, in the same sentence in which he cava!ly mentions having just shot n Russian ?ils of hla excitement and admiration cn re-reading the 'Witches' .( Sabbath Scene,' and wondering 'what Goethe would have thought anout tne present war.' I have been told that thrA have been numberless demands 'Goethe and Anstotle'! Ana every bookseller to whom I have put the AnoctlAn rtf what hp nd to the front -is sure, sooner or later, to say, auu, of course, there s Goetne. The soldiers read no more about the war. They are "fed up" on that theme, as the English would put it; and rrpupst their friends to send thet anyth!r,V but w literature "Hum" in Tnniiser" "'Humrr in the Ksack"v a crllectioT.' cf squibs that . . noarori in th nr.TTllf! LllEtige Blattt .has gone into its 110th thousand, s must have found its way into tb "knapsacks to which it was dedicated. There are packages of tiny, pink-cov-ered German classics marked "five books for men at the front," already 'kooivn to American travelers as "Reclams Universal-Bibhothek. Rut. we are told, "many a soldier has uublusbingly admitted that when a piece of "the world's greatest literature quarreled for that last vacant corner of his knapsack with the box of cigars just arrived from the field post, the ?book was unhesitatingly and cheerfull.. uA,.n irttn the nearest, fiftlfi ' Dfttective stories or exciting novels of -any sort are not much wanted either. The soldier prefers "solid, peaceful, somewhat tedious novels, ve reaa further: Dt lltllo Vnnwn nntairiA of (iprs AUBVff .ww w - many, not writers 01 tne nrsi ruiv, ;but men whose love of Germany far nutrnn kl that of Goethe, such as sKorner, the poet who fought in the worn Acrninst Nanoleon. and Lilien'jCron, author of 'Soldatenlieder,' "re J slso to be found in the knapsack. One . hear sometimes of Nietzsche's 'Zarathustra' being read at the front by the ?Uiore educated men but hardly often or.cugh to lend support to that naive fbrlief that it was Nietzsche, with his gccpel of power, who was responsioie for this war. From all I can gather, Kant, the philosopher of duty, of obedience, is more often to be found in Dr. Osier on Tuberculosis Sir William Osier, one of the foremost of living medical men, formerly of Johns Hopkins, Baltimore, and now Regius Professor of Medicine at Oxford, says In his ""ractice of Medicine" (1892), on page 249; k "The heaiina of pulmonary tubercu losis is shown clinically by the recov. ery of patients In whose sputa elastic tissue and bacilli have been found. In the granulations products and asociated pneumonia a scar tissue Is formed, while the smaller caseous areas, become Impregnated with lime salts, To such conditions alone should the term healing be applied." Many eminent medical authorities have testified to the efficacy of lime salts in the treatment of tuberculosis, and the success of Eckman's Altera tive in this and allied throat and bronchial affections may be due partly to the fact that it contains a lime salt o combined with other valuable in gredients as to be easily assimilated. widespread use of this remedy a numerous c SvS of uberculosis many of which appear to have yielded com pletely to it Justifies onr belief that it is worth a trial, unless some other treatment Uready is succeeding, it contains no opiates, narcotics or habit-forming drugs We make no promises concerning it any more that reputable physicians give promises with their prescriptions, but we know of many cases in which IT HAS H: . -ED.

the knapsacks of teachers,, lawyers, and writers who are now soldiers than the mora brilliant but erratic preacher of the 'Superman- So that the actual evidence seems to support Professor Dewey of Columbia in the belief expressed in his recent book that the spirit of Germany today is the spirit of Kant, and not of Nietzsche. "It seems almost unbelievable that in the midst of the crude tumult of war men should have sufficient calm of spirit to appreciate the smooth rhythms, the subbtle nuances, of a modern poet like Rainer Maria Rilke, a German very much under the influence of the French. Yet he, too, is read at the front. And Jens Peter Jacobsen, the delicate Scandinavian psychologist, who has his Hamlet-like hero, Niels Lyhne, die bravely in battle be, too, is. popular. "For the German is cosmopolitan in his literary appreciations. Nothing could be more amusing than the amazement of a young German 'intellectual,' who had for years been an admirer of Maeterlinck, and suddenly found himself in the land of Maeterlinckin the capacity of invader and discovered that a Belgian school director to whom he was talking had never even heard of Maeterlinck's name. "But In his desire to be gracious, and to show that he, too, was a man of letters, the school director went into an inner room and after some time brought out 'Uncle Tom's Cabin.' " Never before in the history of the world, observes Mr. Hirsh, "has there been an army so small a proportion of which is composed of professional soldiers, eo large a proportion of educated, and of highly educated men-" And as a consequence, "The physical hardships, even the strain of the emotions, are not nearly as hard for many of these men to bear ss the sudden enforced intellectual OUR YOUNG WOMEN are so often subject to headache are languid, pale and nervous because theirbloodisthinorinsiifncient.

stagnation. Many of them have taken with them books of the most technical nature, simply too keep themselves stimulated Intellectually, and to make the gap between their past and their present seem less extreme. Yet there ; is something terribly futile about read- i ing books relating to the technique i of your profession when you know that It will be a year, perhaps two, before you will be able to practice it again or perhaps an eternity. I heard of one jurist who had taken Ihering's ponderous work on 'The Struggle for Equity' with him in his knapsack, tossing it down in disgust one evening in his quarters in Belgium, and cursing the luck that forced him to take up this 6tupid business of being a soldier, just at the time when because of the war all sorts of 'pretty' problems that had never come up before would have to be solved. I read a letter from a surgeon I know who expresses himself as bored to death by his work at the hospital at the front. He was an amateur aviator before the war, and is piqued that the military authorities won't let him join the aviation corps now, where there are at least some danger and excitement. He says be would not mind the work be is now doing 'if the soldiers did not always insist on getting wounded in the same uninteresting places no originality at all.' And therefore he can make no progress in the study of his profession. I heard of a literary man who made an excellent soldier was quickly promoted to the rank of corporal but felt keenly the lack of intellectual stimulus."
