You may climb up the heights by

and when nothing but your own feet
will take you any further you will see
In Switzerland a grand hotel. magic

II is solitary--no town. no houses.
nothing but this hotel bemmed In on
all sides by snowy crags and made
impregnable by precipices and treach-

At the great redrawing Of the map
of Europe. when the lesser national
tiles are to disappear. the swItzers
will take armed refuge In their far
thest grand hotels and there defy the
mandates OF the concert.
For the hotel. no matter how remote
It be. lacks nothing that is mentioned
In the dictionary OF comfort. Beyond
its walls your life is not worth twelve
hours purchase.
You would not die OF hunger. DO
cause you would perish OF cold.
At best you might hit on some
peasants cottage in which the stand.

But once pass within the portals OF
the grand hotel. and you tscome the

the envelope across. the Photographic
print fell out, and he studied 1t care
fully for many seconds before he read
the accompanying documents. For Mt
