BERLIN OFTEN TAKEN
GERMAN CAPITAL FOUR TIMES
OCCUPIED BY ENEMY.
Most Severe Blow Was During tho
Thirty Years War-Captured by
the Austrans in 1T57-When
Napoleon Entered.

OF the capitals of the nations now at
war in Europe, Berlin, in times past,
has suffered most at the hands of for.
eign troops.
In all warfare, the capital Of the
country invaded is usually the object
i've of the hostile action. Our own cap
ital at Washington suffered at the
hands of the British in the war of 1912.
Since 1448 Berlin has been the seat OF
the Hohenzollerns and has been occu.
pied four times by the forces of an in
vading enemy.
During the Thirty years war the
city was practically RACED to the
ground. About one hundred years Ia
ter, in 1857, 1t was taken by the Aus
TRANS. They did no harm to the city,
as they received ransom of 100000
thalers-about S1,125,000.
At the end of the disastrous Jena
campaign the capital of Germany fell
into the hands of the French in 1906.
1t was occupied by the troops of Ma
poleon for two years. When Prussia
and Russia allied in 1912 Berlin was
again taken by the Little Corporal
and was held for year.
Next to Berlin Paris has suffered
most at the hands of hostile troops.
In March, 1914, the allied armies
which had opposed Napoleon took the
capital of France and held it for two
months. A year later, at the end Of
the Hundred Days, the city again fell
into the hands of the enemy.
The Germans were anxious to blow
up the Arch de Triomphe, which cele-
brated the victory of the French at
Jena, but the British were opposed to
it and saved the arch.
After long siege by the Germans in
1870 Paris was again occupied by hos
tile troops. This time much damage
was done to the city. Many of the prin-
cipal buildings were destroyed or
burned, and for several months the
Notifications around the city were
held by the kaiser's soldiers.
Since it became the capital of Eng
land, London has never been occupied
by foreign troops, nor even has been
threatened by them. 1t was held by
Danish and Roman invaders before
England, as a nation, came into exist
ence. But since the time of the Nor
mans the English capital has never
been threatened.
Before the present struggle Brussels
had not been held by foreign troops, as
the integrity of Belgium was pre-
served in the struggle of 1870.
st. Petersburg, or Petrograd, as it is
now called, has been too far removed
from the center of activities in Euro
pean warfare to have suffered at the
hands of an invading enemy.
Moscow has been the objective point
of troops invading Russia. In 1871 and
1891 it was taken by the Tartars of the
Crimea and destroyed. In 1912 Napo-
leon made it the object of his invasion
of Russia and aided in it's destruction,
although the Russians themsely es had
done much to destroy the city before
the enemy arrived.

A REBELLION
Food Demanded.

The human body will stand a lot of
abuse, but sometime it will surely re-
bel and demand proper food in place
of the pasty, starchy, greasy stuffs on
which it has been made sick.
Then is the time to try Grape-Nuts,
the most scientific and perfect food in
the world
A lady of Washington says: Three
years ago I was very i'll with catarrh
of the stomach and was given up to
die by one doctor. / laid in bed four
months and my stomach was so weak
that / could not keep down medicine
or hardly any kind of food and was SO
weak and emaciated after four months
of this starvation that my daughter
could easily lift me from bed and put
me in my chair.
But weak as my stomach was, IL
accepted, relished and digested Grape
Nuts without any difficulty the first
time that wonderful food was tried.
Il am now strong and in better
health than for a great many years
and am gradually growing still
stronger. / rely on Grape-Nuts for
much of the nourishment that l get.
The results have certainly been won
derful in my case and prove that no
stomach is so weak it will not digest
Grape-Nuts.
MY baby got fat from feeding on
Grape-Nuts. / was afraid / would
have to stop giving the food to him,
but guess it is a healthy fat, for his
health is Just perfect" Name given

Reluctantly the conscientious wife

coming into Anderson yesterday for
their visit, made the trip from Chick
Springs to Anderson in one of the
handsome steel trailers recently add
ed to the Piedmont & Northern line
equipment. The editors were all inn
pressed With the palat:al car but the
greatest surprise was manifested by
them over the fact that these cars
were made by a southern concern, in
stead OF some northern factory. The
new cars were manufactured in High
Point. n. c.. by the Southern Car
company and they are every bit as
good as could be turned out by the
Pullman company.
