THE PERFECT REVENGE.

Hanging that elderly German who

him to an island in the lonely seas
would have made him a dramatic and
splendid figure. appealing III his isoi-

who made the enemies of the father

he had gone to the scaffold the world
would have lost its perfect revenge.
Lloyd George wanted to hang him
after the armistice. The French were
anxious to see him swing. When Hol-
land gave him sanctuary the world
thought the arch-criminal of time had
gone unwhipped of justice.
Not so, brethren, there is much balm

We can see him who was once lord

petticoat. Hermnie is running him
and his house as he once expected to
