Love Alone is
Not Enough
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
"But love can hope, where reason would
despair." Lord Lyttleton.
"We are a couple with matrimonial
Intentions," writes S. II. E. "Do you
think we can live on 916 a week?"
"Is $22 a week enough to get married
on?" asks J. E. S.
Love has a way of forgetting rent day
and the price of meat that makes love
charming. One sails through a love af
fair as oblivious of the landing and
reality that await as If one were sailing
down a moonlit stream In a dream. The
two In the boat, the man and the woman,
are dreaming. Occasionally one awakes
long enough to dreamily ask the question
asked by g. H. E. and J. II. 8., but the
dreamer Is afloat again In his dream
boat without pausing for the reply.
Or If he waits to hear it he smiles in
credulously at the argument that one
cannot live on, bread and cheese and
' kisses, the price of the first two having
gone up and the taste for .the latter
diminishing In proportion as the neces
sity, grows, for making it the sole rneansM

and prices was rewarded for his pains.
Those, he tried to save got 'married In

Would it be possible for a man and his

But no American-born girl and bor of

How many American, girls really know

It Is undoubtedly due to Bacchus, the
God of Wine, that dancing came Into

the ancient Horn an, who was an expert
wine grower, thought It only fitting that
this especial god should be appeased by
long festivals and celebrations of a semi
religious character lasting tor days and
In which wine and dancing played the
main part.
These dances were executed by the
priests and priestesses of Bacchus, who,
under the Influence of wine, music and
the odor of strong Incense, burnt before
the statue of the god, worked themselves
Into a state ot mad frenzy.
While the priestesses, of all the other
dletles were held in reverenco the
Bacchantes and the Maenads, as they
were called, soon fell Into disrepute, and
during the festival of Bacchus the Roman
matron saw to It that her young daughter
did not leave the house.
The festival of Bacchus was at first
only a. thanksgiving celebration. Hymns
were sung in honor of the god who had
filled the gourds and leathery bags with
wine.

Storming of Lucknow
By PEHOV P. MONTGOMERY.
The storming of Lucknow. March 8. Ufti,
an 'assault which cornea very near belntf
the high-water mark of soldierly valor,
if It Is not quite, such mark, began fifty-
five years ago.
Russell, ot the London Times, thus de
scribes what he saw as, Just before the
beginning ot tho fight, he looked out ovr
the scene:
"A vision of palaces, minarets, domes,
azure and golden; cupolas, colonnades.
long facades of fair perspective. In pil
lar and column; terraced roofs all rising
up amid a calm, still ocean of the bright
est verdure. Look for miles and miles
away, and still the ocean spreads, and
the towers of the fairy city gleam In the
midst. Turrets and gilded spheres shine
like constellations. Here Is a city more
vast than Paris, and more brilliant, lying
before us."
But underneath tho mask of smiling
beauty upon which Russell gazed lay the
face of a grlm-vlsaged war. Lucknow
wan a huge honeycomb ot houses, a city
more than twenty miles In circumference,
with a turbulent population ot "00,000
souls. It had a garrison of 130,000 fight
ing men, with an overwhelming force ot
artillery.
The Sepoy leaders had spent months In
making the city as they bclloved, Im
pregnable, Besides the threo great lines
of defense each great building was It
self a fortress, and everything which
Ingenuity could devise and toll execute
had been done to make the place secure.
The task of fighting a way across these
triple lines and through the tangle ot for
tified houses, each girded with rifle pits
and. plentifully loopholed from foundation
to roof, might well have damped tha
courage of the British. It was a pros
pect well calculated to cool the ardor ot
the bravest mon.
But men ot British blood had never
stopped to parley with fear when duty
hod them In hand, nor did they break the
good old rule before Lucknow, Thcio
were only 20,000 ot them, assisted by
some 9,000 Ghoorkas under the Jung Bah-
aduh, but when Sir Colin Campbell gavo
the word they sprang to their work as
cheerfully aa though they had been golnz
to a picnic.
It was glorious, the way those men ot
.Britain Irishmen. Scotchmen. English
men took hold of their fearful task,
Genarally speaking, by the stormlne
ot a place we mean to Indicate a single
action, sharp and soon over, but the so
called "storming" of Lucknow was n'ade
In reality several actions, stretched
throush twelve awful days from the 9th
to the 21st It was not a selege. There
was no Investment, no formal approaches,
no sapping and mining It was. In tho
literal sense of the word, a storm, re
peated a dozen times In as many days.
And, Incredltable as It may seem, the
British won. The formidable lines wero
one after another carried"; the Innumer
able fortresses wero taken and the
British flag was once again unfurled,
above the Residency, Lucknow had fallen.
The 20,000 Englishmen. Scotchmen and
Irishmen had boaton tho great city oC
700,000 souls and its garrison Vf 130,000
fighting men.
Hut no word about Lucknow, how
ever full, would be complete without at
least a reference to Sir James Outram.
in the previous November, as he was
evacuating Lucknow, Sir Colin Campbell
left Outram with 4,000 men to hold the
Alumbagh, and for three months Outram
held the perilous post right in front of
Lucknow, his handful of men bearding
a great revolted city with 130,000 fighting
men.
Attacked no less than six times in
front, rear and flank, by a force of over
60,000 men, Outram held his own, and was
right there when 81r Colin returned to
win his great triumph of March. 165S-a
triumph that ended the great mutiny and
re-established British rule m India.
