very bad, deep, wet, running sore on
the side of her face and it ran up to
her ear. 1t commenced with q small

some time and slightly swelled. A

F0RESEES PERIL TO ALLIES.
Expert Thinks They Would Gain
Nothing by Turning German Right

AMSTERDAM. via London, October 3.
"A dispatch from the German capital
says that the Berliner Tageblatt prints
significant article by it's military
correspondent. Maj. Moraht. who, while
asserting confidence that there will be
fresh German advance on Paris, is
careful to add:
But there is another possibility
which must command the conscientious
attention of calm observers of the
fiuctuating struggle: What would be
gained by the allies IL they force back
our right wing to the Belgian frontier?
Nothing but the passing success which
would be the beginning of the end of
the Franco-British presumption Of VIC
tory
Maj. Moraht then explains that the
farther the allies move from Verdun
and Toul, which. he says, form their
last great strongholds. the, longer is
the distance they must travel back
when the stream of German armies
broad and unhindered, flows westward
from Lorraine.
