tpalace, lavishing vast sums upon it. In 16S2 the court cameto Versailles, and for over a hundred years it was the prin-cipal residence of the French kings. Here Marie Antoinetteplayed at being a peasant dairymaid. The great halls havebeen the scene of important historical events. Here was signedthe treaty of peace between France and England in whichGreat Britain recognized the independence of the UnitedStates. Here the Paris mob swarmed and drove Louis XVIand his queen to Paris for safety. In the Franco-PrussianWar, the Germans used the palace as headquarters, and itwas here that, on January 18,1871, the King of Prussia wasproclaimed German emperor. The inscription on the central building, To all the gloriesof France, is justified by the collection within. Hall afterhall is filled with pictures commemorating historical events,with statues and busts and portraits of famous people, plansof important battles, allegorical paintings, views of royalpalaces, and arms of crusaders and kings.

THE WATCH ON THE RHINE BY MAX SCHNECKENBURGER (This was a favorite song of the German soldiers during thewar of 1870. The Editor.) A VOICE resounds like thunder-peal,Mid dashing waves and clang of steel:The Rhine, the Rhine, the German Rhine!Who guards to-day my stream divine? Chorus: Dear Fatherland, no danger thine; Firm stand thy sons to watch the Rhine! They stand, a hundred thousand strong.Quick to avenge their countrys wrong;With filial love their bosoms swell.Theyll guard the sacred landmark well! The dead of an heroic raceFrom heaven look down and meet this gaze;He swears with dauntless heart, O Rhine,Be German as this breast of mine! While flows one drop of German blood,Or sword remains to guard thy flood,While rifle rests in patriot hand.No foe shall tread thy sacred strand! 249 GERIVIANY Our oath resounds, the river flows, In golden light our banner glows; Our hearts will guard thy stream divine: The Rhine, the Rhine, the German Rhine!
