TAKING HER MEDICINE

With great wisdom Spain swallows

der her arm and accepts Uncle Sans
terms OF peace. For mere forms sake
10 make 1t appear that she really has
something to say in the matter, she
Will haggle little over details. but
she will finally accede to all the condi-
tons made by Uncle Sam.
She does this with secret glee, al
though with trepidation as to how her
people will receive the news-real
news to them-that she is whipped by
the scorned Yankee pigs" Sagasta is
allowing the truth to leak out in
homeopathic doses in order to break it
gently and accustom the people to it so
they will be able in time to stand the
full force of the fact that Spain-once
mighty, imperial, proud Spain--has
been overwhelmingly thrashed by the
United States, her pride hunbled in
the dust and her most valuable possess
ions wrested from her.
lisa bitter, bitter Sose and the Dons
make a mighty wry face at it, but it
must go down. And they will swallow
ito the last drop!
