What Frightfulness Means

Many Americans have found it hard
to believe that German soldiers would
commit the atrocities with which they
are charged. Even when confronted
by the evidence of the bar5arous
deeds we have been inclined to think,
''These were individual acts. But the
army as whole cannot be guilty, be-
cause officers would not command sol
diers to perform such acts, and sol
diers even if commanded would not
obey but revolt
But German autocracy had taker
care to prevent just such a revolt
human nature. In 1902 the Genera
Staff of the German army published
manual for the instruction of officers
entitled Customs of War on Land
This War Book deliberately contra
diets the terms of the Hague Treaty
which Germany had previously sworn
to uphold. ,
In reading the War Book, one finds
that the war lords teach the army
that any commanding officer is al
lowed, without waiting for orders
from higher up, to treat the people
and the land of the enemy as cruelty
as he pleases, if only it is necessary
for military success Study the his
tory Of ancient wars-learn how
frightful war has always been-forget
that you are a son of modern civiliza-
ton. The Hague treaty is full Of SEN
timental nonsense The only thing
which may hold you back from fright
fitness is the fear that the enemy
may pay you back in your own coin.
Just what, in detail, are the facts?
In 1899 at the Hague, Germany signed
a treaty III which-to quote it's very
words Majesty the Emperor of
Germany and the other rulers of Eu-
rope declare they are animated by
the desire to serve the interests OF
humanity and the ever increasing re-
uuirements of civilization. They
wish to LAY down certain limits" to
the customs of war, for the purpose
of modifying their severity so far as
possible. Sixty laws of war were
thus established by solemn treaty.
Germany swore to issue instructions
to her armed land forces which
should agree exactly with these laws.
But when the War Book was pub
lished, only three years later, it
warned the German officer against
the Humanitarian views" of the nine
teenth century, (which not infrequent-
| ly degenerated into sentimentality
| and mawkish emotionalism". He was
| told to beware of attempts to influ-
| ence the customs of war in a way
which was in fundamental contradic-
| ton with the nature of war and it's
| object. Such attempts will not be
| lacking in the future, the more SO as
| these efforts have found a moral rec
ognition in some of the provisions of
| the Geneva Convention and of the
Brussels and Hague Conferences"
| The more educated an officer is, the

greater the danger that he will be
Influenced by humanitarianism t
guard against this he must study mil
itary history, which will teach him
whether the prevailing customs of
war are justified or not. With some
few exceptions, all attempts to make
laws to restrain war have completely
failed. There is nothing but "a mu-
tual agreement &. which custom
and tradition, human friendliness and
calculating selfishness have erected.
Even this agreement has mo external
anction; only the fear of reprisals
ecides". That is, there is no penalty
or disobeying these rules of war, un-
ess you are afraid the enemy may
10 the same, or worse, to you.
Having denied the spirit of the
Hague agreement, the War Book
hereupon proceeds in detail to annul
4 large number of it's most important
provisions. AS an example, the Hague
Regulations provide that private
property must be respected. The War
even the greatest, may be done, if
necessary for success, the command
ing officer being the judge.
But what was the Kaiser doing
while his General Staff was thus max
ing public sport of his treaties? He
was setting tho example. He had
signed the Hague treaty, which pro-
vided that sit is expressly forbidden
to declare that no quarter will be
given But less than year later,
when sending troops to put down the
Boxer uprising in China, he declared
to them, mo mercy will be shown!
No prisoners will be taken. AS the
Huns under Attila made name for
themselves which is still mighty in
traditions and legends today, may the
name of Germany be so fixed in China
by your deeds that no Chinaman shall
ever dare to look at German ask
ance s. Make way for Kultur once
for ALL"
Did the army obey? 1t was ex.
pected to obey. And the German
newspapers of that time testified that
it did obey.
In the same year the Kaiser had
told his army: "You have given your
selves to me, body and soul. In view
of the present Socialistic agitations,
it may. come to pass that l shall COM
mand you to shoot your own rela-
tives, brothers, yes, parents - which
God forbid! but even then you must
follow my command without MUIR
muir"
And yet there are men who think
| that the German army is incapable
of committing the atrocities now
charged against it. And there are
men who think that the world is still
a safe place for themselves and their
wives and children while the Kaiser
and his General Staff are in control
of the strongest and the most obedi-
ent army in the world!

EASY TO TELL REAL DIAMOND
There Are Many Ways in Which the
Finest limitations May Be Detect
ed, Even by the inexperienced.

The experienced eye does not find II
difficult to decide whether diamond
Is genuine, for the facets of real ones
are seldom so regular as those of fine
limitations. With the latter the great
est care is taken in grinding to polish
and smooth the whole stone so that
there will be irregularity in the reflec.
ton or refraction of the light. A neces-
sary tool for testing is the file, which
cannot scratch real diamond, al
though it quickly leaves it's mark on
an imitation. Better than the file is the
sapphire, for the sapphire is the next
hardest stone to the diamond. Any
stone that sapphire can scratch is
| assuredly not diamond.
If you put small drop of water on
the upper facet of a brilliant and touch
1t with the point of a pencil the drop
will keep it's rounded form, but the
stone will remain clean and dry. In
case of an imitation the drop immedi-
ately spreads out. Plunge a diamond
into water and it will be plainly visible
and will glitter through the liquid, but
an imitation. stone is almost invisible.
If you look through diamond, as
through bit of glass, at black dot

one single point clearly. If you see sew

TAKE SALTS To
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat Less Meat If You Feel Backachy
or Have Bladder Trouble.

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush
the kidneys occasionally. You must
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel a dull mis-
cry in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue
is coated and when the weather is
bad you have rheumatic twinges.
The urine is cloudy, full of sediment;
the channels often get irritated,
obliging you to get up two or three
times during the night.
To neutraliZe these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous
waste get about ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and blad-
der disorders disappear. This IA
nous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys and stop bladder ir-
ritation. Jad Salts is inexpen-
full effervescent lithiawater drink
which millions of men and women
take now and then, thus avoiding SER
ious kidney and bladder diseases.
