HI AMERICANS LEFT
IN AUSTRIA.
DIR JOHN c BOYD OF WILLIAMS
BURG co, S c, U S N, RETIRED,
TELLS STORY OF SUFFERING.

Washington, August 25:-A story
of Americans left ill in Austria is
told by DR. John C Boyd, U S N, re-
tired, of South Carolina, who land
ed from Genoa on the Principe
Divudine in New York yesterday.
DR. Boyd was at Cortina. in the Aus
trian Tyrol, when the war cloud
burst over Europe. When he left
Cortina he he said there were a
goodly number of Americans still
left there, expecting to stay.
"One woman was there with her
two Children" he said. "The morn
ing we left heard of sl.e children
having scarlet fever. All the men
drafted into the army had left our
hotel and only a few maids, were
left. 1t seemed the hotels there
must close and don't know what
the Americans still there will do.
The distress of Americans still
left in Europe was shown in the con-
sul's office in Genoa. There was d
woman there, who was the daughter
of a prominent manufacturer in
Chicago. She had pawned her watch
with a pension proprietor to pay for
her board and lodging. When the
proprietor notified her she had used
up the value of the watch she ap-
pealed to the consul general
Because all the men had been
drafted into the army members of
DR. Boyd's party carried their trunks
and other luggage to the motor bus
running to the station. They took
the train at Calalzo and started for
Milan and had to change cars four
times because of the discontinuance
of the through train service through
out Europe.

HOW TO GET Strength

after any sickness is purely matter OF
uourishment, whether the attack was
an ordinary cold or severe illness; the
weakened forces cannot repulse disease
germs, and this is why relapse IS 80
often fatal or why chronic weakness often
follows sickness.
Restoring strength to millions OF people
for forty years has proven the real need
for taking Scott's Emulsion after any
sickness; nothing equals nothing
compares with it. Its pure, medicinal
nourishment, free from alcohol or opiates,
promptly creates rich blood, strengthens
the nerves and lungs to avert tuberculosis.

EUROPE'S THIRD CRISIS

ey4HL mighty conflict now ranging in
l Europe is no mere clashing Of dy-
nastic or national ambitions, nor yet q
struggle for racial supremacy wherein
sIav or Teuton, Frank or Anglo-saxon
shall rise supreme, but is in truth q
war to the knife between Civilization
and Barbarism.
Germany's mad Kaiser dreaming to
eclipse the war gIories Of a Rameses,
an Alexander or aCaesar, and avowedly
taking AtilIa, that savage HunEof the
ftth;century, as his model after pros
tltuting for q lifetime the genius and
wealth of his people in elaborate pre-
parations for war, has blOOdily launch
ed his ambitious scheme of conquering
the world!
Thus for the third time the civiIiza-
ton of Europe is menaced by barbarie
bordes seeking by force to impose their
brutal ideals upon the nations.
Itisa curious fact that the crucial
battles which defeated thosetwo earlier
assaults, were foughton the very Frank
ish plains where ragged the great strug-
gle Of the Marne and yet RACES that Of
the Aisne.
At Chalons in France, in the year
45I, the Roman general Aetius broke
the Onward rush Of the victorious Attila
the sword Of Mars, as he was fear
fully styled, and rescued European ci-
vilization from Scythian barbarism.
Again, in the year 72O at Tours in
France, the Merovignian Franks under
Charles Mavtel, met and turned back
the Saracen invaders whose conquests
threatened to destroy the Church and
Christianity itself, Thus was Europe
at Tours saved from becoming Moham-
MAIDEN, as before at ChaTons it had been
saved from Hunnish barbarism. And
now today once more is all Europe bat
ting for its life on those same historic
grounds!
But no one with faith in the God Of
Battles can doubt the outcome Of this
awful war of many nations, because the
contest therein is between the naughty
Kaiser's boast that "Might makes
right, and Jehoyah's eternal fiat that
Right makes might. "
Were Germany's millions multiplied
by ten, and the numbers of, the allies
shrunk to paltry handful, still the
righteous issue would not need to fail,
for the omnipotent could send again
His avenging angelwho smote the hosts
of Sennacharib, and break in pieces the
wicked plans Of this presumptuous war
lord of the twentieth century!
