This war has reversed all tradi

doctors have learned how to cure
most accepted varieties Of fatal
wound. A man shot through the

It was the correct thing to do. 1t

THE SUPERLATIVE DEGREE

The devastation will be as COM
plete in the cities as in the rural
districts and the mines. Not
building must be left standing be-
tween Holland and Luxembourg.
The fields and forests will be re-
duced to barrenness for fifty
years, and the mineral deposits
will be destroyed and demolished
and variously maltreated by fluids
and explosions to the extinction
OF their productiveness and fe-
cundity.
Everything, III a word, is to be
promiscuously bedeviled into the
next two generations.
