IN THE E
a Question that Is
troubling all Europe. Just at present
it looks as if the continuance of the
war rests largely with one man?J.
Pierpont Morgan.
Turkey wants to borrow $50,000,*
000. Turkey has been negotiating
with the Morgan interests for the last
two months. The ostensible object of
the loan was to bring about peace be
tween Italy and Turkey and to re
habilitate the latter country and open
up its rich possibilities for commer
cial development. Neither Mr. Mor
gan nor any other of the world'a
money kings, however, is likely to
care about lending these millions to
Turkey so she may prosecute even a
defensive war against her hostile
neighbors. Therefore, if the Turkish
; loan Is made, there Is little doubt it
; will be conditional on peace being re
1 stored.
This outbreak in the Balkans has
been brewing for a great m&ny years.
1 In fact, there has been no time in the
last few centuries when the situation
1 in the Balkans could have been de
1 scribed as peaceful. The little states
I that hitherto merely have been pawns
I in the diplomatic game of the great
powers at last have taken the bit in
I their teeth and may upset the equilib
rium of Europe before they are check
; ed. Nothing but the absolute back
| down of Turkey will bring peace
quickly. This may be expected if Mr.
Morgan and the other great money
kings, who are the real rulers of na
! tlons, refuse to make loans unless
peace 1b declared.
War Situation Now.
Meanwhile the Balkan states and
Greece are at war with Turkey. They
| all have been fairly aching for such a
chance as this, and every one of these
small countries is more than eager to
elze what advantage it can out of the
present chaos of the Turkish empire.
The political divisions of the peninsu
la known as the Balkan states are
four In number. North of the Danube
: lies Roumania, whose Independence
j from Turkey was confirmed by the
! Berlin congress in 1878. Immediately
j south, on the other bank of the Dan
ube, Is Bulgaria, the key to the Bal
j kans, and the most formidable of the
| states. West of Bulgaria is Servia,
| union occupies an lmponam. ttircuegiv
position on the Danube and commands
j the main line of railway from western
i Europe to Constantinople. Servia
! was created an independent kingdom
1 by the treaty of Berlin.
Southwest of Servia is the princi
pality of Montenegro. To the west, at
; about the head of the Adriatic and be
tween the River Drave and the coast,
| are the territories kknown as Bosnia
and Herzegovina. These first were
1 placed by agreement under the gov
ernmental supervision of Austria and
| later were annexed by that empire,
i They are destined to play an lmport
j ant part in any conflict, because
j Austria will not permit herself to be
| deprived of them without a struggle,
j The population of these two Austrian
; states is about equally divided be
j tween Moslems and Christians.
Religion Divides Peoples.
All these Btates were once a part of
the great Ottoman empire that at one
j time reached almost to the gates of
I Vienna. The root of the trouble which
has culminated in the present out
; break is that the boundary lines that
were drawn lo form these states were
made by diplomacy and the expedi
ency of statecraft, and in no case in
cluded all the peoples that belonged to
the different nationalities that made
up their population. Many hundreds
of thousands of Bulgarians, Servians
and so on are still under Turkish
: rule.
! The Balkan states deBire to collect
' all those of their own nationality and
I faith within their own borders and to
leave none subject to the sultan. ThiB
can be done only by extending their
j own boundaries far into the Turkish
; empire. The present war is a racial
and religious one, with, of course, the
idea also of getting considerable ma
terial benefit through conquest.
On the south there are other harried
people?the Greek races?who have
been struggling for years to escape
i from the Moslem rule. Greece also has
i an aspiration to annex Crete and many
of the islands of the Aegean which

once belonged to her, but which lately
have fallen to the Italians.
Bulgaria Ranks High.
The most important of the Balkan
states is Bulgaria. Prince Ferdinand
was crowned as its czar October 5,
1908. Bulgaria Uas conquered by the
TurkB in 139C and for nearly 500. years
remained a part of the Ottoman em
pire. It was constituted semi-indepen
dent by the Berlin treaty in 1878. One
of the hopes of the Bulgarians is to
restore that country to its greatness
of centuries ago and to Include with
in Its boundaries all of Macedonia. In
Macedonia dwell Mahometans and
Christians. These always are ready
to fly at each other's throats. The
Christians are divided into Greeks,
Servians and Bulgars. These three
nationalities hate each other fully as
much as all of them hate the Turk.
Servia was conquered by the Turks
in 1389, ceded to Austria in 1718 and
retaken by Turkey In 1839. In 1903 It
was the scene of the cold-blooded as
sassination of King Alexander and his
queen, whose reign was stained by so
much vice and crime that the other
rulers of Europe refused to receive
them.
Montenegro is an independent prin
cipality whose Inhabitants are hardy
mountaineers. They are descended
from Servians who, in the fourteenth
century, fled to those mountains and
established their Independence there,
maintaining It against all the attacks
of the Turks.
Geographical Situation.
The Balkan peninsula, generally
speaking, is a difficult country for an
army to invade and an easy one for
troops to act on the defensive in. It
is traversed by two great mountain
systems, the Balkans on the northeast
and the Dlnaris Alps on the west.
The Balkans begin at the great gorge
of the Danube?the Iron Gates, as
they are called. At this point Hun
gary, Roumania and Servia meet.
Through the Iron QtfEes of the Dan
ube have passed the armies of many
great commanders. The nations of Eu
rope and Asia have passed back and
forth from prehistoric times in their
peaceful migrations or those of con
quest. As result there is the greatest
mixture of peoples and races in that
region of anywhere on earth.
The Balkan range runs southward
through eastern Servia, then curves
eastward, passing through the center
of Bulgaria to the Black sea. It is
from 12 to 30 miles wide. On the
south side It is very precipitous, but
slopes gently on the north. It forms
a vast natural barrier and is crossed
by more than 30 passes. The most
famous of these is Shipka pass, where
during the war between Russia and
Turkey in 1877 a desperate battle was
fought. The Russians, with 7,500 men,
held the pass for three days against
30,000 Turks. A little later, in mid
winter, 60,000 Russians advanced upon
the Turks and drove them out of the
pass. The Russians lost nearly 6,000
men In this battle In the deep snow,
and the Turkish troops suffered al
most aB heavily.
The Turks still quote the old saying
of Mahomet II. to the Venetian repub
lic, when the flag of Islam was the
most feared banner of Europe: "We
Ottomans came to Europe against all
Christendom, and it will take all
Christendom to put us out"
Turkish History.
The Turks first appeared in Euro
pean history in the middle of the four
teenth century. They were driven by
the Mongols from Central Asia to Ar
menia. They extended their domain
gradually westward into Asia Minor,
and about this time began to be known
as Osmanlis, from their first sultan,
Osman. This name afterward was
corrupted to Ottoman.
Osman's son made his capital at
Bursa, opopsite Constantinople, and
his son gained a foothold in Europe
in 1358. Murad I. established the cap
ital of his empire at Adrianople 30
years later. He defeated the Servians
and the allies at the great battle of
Kossovo in 1389, and himself perished
on the field. In the following decade
the Turks subdued Wallachia, Bul
garia, Thessaly and Macedonia, and
annihilated the combined hosts of
Hungary and Poland.
The Ottoman empire reached its ut
dered politician, who had just awak
ened.
The minister stopped, looked at
the sleepy interrupter and then said
laconically, "Mark."
"Well," said the politician, "it
sounds like Hanna."?Judge.
Various Forms of Hiccough.
Allied to the rare forms of nervous
hiccough there is also the emotional
hiccough, which arises in connection
with a moral shock, severe fright and
sudden emotion, the hiccough due to
^ moBt limitB and becp.tne a terror to
Chrfstendom under Suleiman II., who
ruled between 1520 and 1566. He cap
tured Belgrade, the key of Hungary;
Rhodes fell Into his hands, and in
1526 the central portion of Hungary
became a Turkish province. The north
ern march of the Turks halted only
In sight of the walls of Vienna. In
the same period the sultan won pos
session of Algeria and the north coast
of Africa, tq the east, and made him
self master of the Mediterranean. Be
fore the close of the sixteenth cen
tury many of the Ionian islaiHuls be
came Turkish possessipns, and it was
not until 1571 that Europe learned in
the battle of Lepanto that the Turk
was not invincible.
Seems End of Turkish Rule.
Tne decline or Turaey Degan up me
seventeenth century, and proceeded
more rapidly In the eighteenth. Rus
sia and Austria won back province
after province, and toward the close
of the eighteenth century Turkey
seemed on the point of vanishing as a
nation. There were civil wars, as well
as wars with other European coun
tries, but Turkey survived them all.
ItB territorial possessions have Con
tinued to shrink until they are what
they are today. Doubtless whatever
the outcome of the present war in
the Balkans, Turkey's boundary will
be reduced still further. Indeed, the
Turk never was nearer being driven
out of Europe than be is today.
STRENGTH OF MOTHER LOVE
Stork or Lark Willingly Give Llvsa
to Save the Young Birds Prom
Danger.
So strong Is the mother love de
veloped In the stork and the lark
that It amounts to a heroic passion.
The stork, which spends the win
ter in Egypt and the summer in
northern and western Europe, likes
to build its nest on the top of some
steep gable roof. Such a nest is
often a real nuisance to man. It i?
from three to five yards in diameter.
It swarms with lizards, frogs, toads
and other disagreeable creatures. It
becomes in course of time so heavy
that it will break the roof if not arti
ficially propped up from below.
Nevertheless, for various supersti
tious reasons the stork Is not only
welcome, but even courted by the
European peasants, and It cannot be
denied that the respect with which
the bird is regarded is to some extent
deserved.
If the house takes Are1 and the
ry rfoflrc V* a f A Kfi nf OTI O CO
/vuug, oiuino "Urf1-" ? -e>
at which they cannot be saved by
being taken away from the nest the
stork mother does not abandon them.
Standing erect in the nest, flapping
her wings to waft away the smoke
and the flames, and crying out now
and then, she remains with her young,
perishing with them.
The skylark, which builds Its nest
in the meadows, runs away from it
when frightened. She proceeds for
four or five yards under the clover
and rises perpendicularly In the air,
pouring forth her song in its wildest
strains in order to divert the In
truder's attention. But the peasant
boy.'knows that so long as she re
mains nangicg at me same point in
.the air he Is still four or five yardB
from the nest, and he uses the direc
tion of her movements and the ring
of her song to ascertain the exact
spot.
If it chances that the yonng larks
are Just about to break through the
shell of the eggs, at which time the
mother instinct is at its height, It is
said that at the very moment when
the nest is touched the little bird
will ^actually attack the intruder.?

"So," he said simply, "I waded in aft

WORLD'S TEMPERANCE SUNDAY.
LESSON TEXT-Hosea 7.
GOLDEN Ti;XT-"Woe urfto them that
rise up early In the morning, that they
may follow strong drink; that tarry late
into the night, till wine Inflame them."?
Isaiah 5:1L
We turn aside today from studying
the life of Christ to consider one of
the things that caused the downfall
of Ephraim, that Is the northern king
dom, and also of Israel, i. e., those
who composed the southern kingdom.
The chief counterfeit of the Holy
Spirit employed by Satan is the in
spiration and the intoxication pro
duced in the use of liquors, and w?
do well to pause and consider the
works of him whom Jesus came to
destroy. (Heb. 2:14).
The lesson naturally dlvraes Itself
into two divisions, w. ^-7 and vv.
8-16. This entire section really be
gins in chapter six ver&e four and
contains .the response of Jehovah to
the cry of the remnant of Israel and
of Ephraim in the last days. In the
first half we see the Iniquity / of
Ephraim and Israel "discovered," 1. e.,
revealed, and in the second section
there Is discovered or revealed to us
God's wrath against them for their
hypocrisy.
I. God declares that it was his de
: sire to heal them both, (v I). It la
not God's w!:ll that-any should perish,
he has no pleasure In the death of the
wicked, (Ezek. 33:11, 18:32).
But while Jehovah would (have
healed them they would not he healed,
(cf. Matt. 23:37 and Luke 13:34), and
hence It is that hiB Iovb serves to re
veal their wickedness. Dr. Torrey
against the cpmmon people "Ephraim"
and the court and city "Samaria," for
this evil attacks both alike,
Never Hidden From God.
(1) "Falsehood" (v. 1). Nothing is
more common among the evils of in
temperance than falsehood; as we
have suggested it Is the Devil's false
Imitation of true Inspiration. (2) "A
thief comes in." Intemperance steals
not only a man's money but his repu
tation, love for his family, In fact any
points out eight charges
and everything a sober man will noia
dear. (3) "They consider not in their
hearts." Like Rip Van Winkle, men
say "this last doesn't count," forget
ting that it does count and that God
remember all of their wickedness. A
violatlpn of his law will receive pun
ishment in due season. America is
paying the price of a manifold in
crease in taxation, in murdeh, in im
becility, in divorce and suicide, the
overwh lmlng portion of which can be
traced to Intemperance. God is re
membering all our wickedness and
verily a troop of robbers are strip
ping us (v. 1).
We ofttimes hide our evil deeds
from man but never from God, and a
man's sins will find him out (Psalm
9:16). These people made the king
glad (v. 3,) i. e., the king delighted in
this wickedness. Let us not forget
that righteousness exalteth a nation
and sin is a reproach to any people.
(4) "They are all adulterers," (v. 4).
Of course in this connection we know
there was a remnant of true follow
ers, but the prevailing vileness wai
such as to call forth this terrific in
dictment. We need to remember that
the connection between the liquor
traffic and white slavery is so close as
to defy separation. Why do politicians
and police officials connive at the so
cial evil that is far worse in its rav
ages each year than any epidemic of
the past centuries? Simply because of
the* profits that accrue. Like as an
oven heated by the baker, so is the
fire of lust' and of appetite and of
avarice. In many quarters we seem
to be hastening on toward a similar
condition of society. Is the world
then getting no better? Certainly.
The good is better but the evil is
more refined and subtle, hence worse, i
The millennium will not come through i
the development of present day pow
ers. It will come only when he 6hall
come to set up his throne whose right
it is to reign. (5) "The princes have
made themselves sick with the heat
of wine," (v. 5 R. V.) The physical
ravages of intemperance are so well
j known as to call for no comment. But
the moral sickness seems to be hid
i den from, or else ignored by myriads.
Judges give their testimony as^o (he
percentage of crime attributable to
liquor.
"The Great Destroyer."
A liquor drinker is almost invarla
I bly a scorner. He scorns the power
of liquor over himself, its effect upon
j the nation. "Sum up the economic
loss of efficiency the cost of crime,
! pauperism, and insanity, and we have
an economic burden of more than half
of the wealth produced by this na
tion." (See Congressman H. R. Hoi>
son'8, "The Great Destroyer"), (t )
"They have made ready their heart
like an oven while they lie in wait,"
(vv. 6, 7, referring undoubtedly to the
[ heat of anger and passion as well as'
! of lust. (7) "They have devoured
j their judges" (v. 7). One has but to
} review the pages of history to appre
| elate the overthrow of priest, peasant
j and potentate alike. (8) "There is
I that nnnn me" (v. 7).
I The turning aside from God was noted ;
| at the outset, here again we see that j
the neglect and forgetfulness of God
is the true source of all of man's sin- j
nlng.
II. God intended Israel, and intends
ub. to be separate people. The prophet
sets before us the result of this re
fusal upon Ephraim. A cake not turn
ed is a cake half baked, one half burn
ed. This metaphor has many applica
tions. Our social life, our political life
our spiritual life is too often one thai
is half turned, one-half burned to f
risp and the other half raw.
