That is the very breed Of the ac-

But look back now at what has

widest outbreak is hardly known

The writer does not care to pose
as a prophet, but It seems q dull
imagination and a deep sleep indeed
that is unable to see today beyond
these orgies Of war and waste to the

with the war crush loosed from
