He strongly opposes needless opcr-

A rumor is going round tnat there
may be peace. but the other story is
more hkely-that we are bound for
Russia. Still, what do we need new
things for in Russia2 At last it
leaks out-the kaiser is coming to
review us. Hence all the inspec-
tons.
For eight whole days one would
suppose we we're in a base-camp,
there is so much drill and fuss.
Every one is peevish and touchy, we
do not take kindly to all this pol
ishing, much less to parades. Such
things exasperate a soldier more
than the front line.
At last the moment arrives. We
stand up stiff and the kaiser ap-
pears. We are curious to see what
he looks like. He stalks along the
/ line, and I am really rather dis
appointed; judging from his pic
/ pictures 1 imagined him to be bigger
and more powerfully built and above
all to have a laundering voice.
He distributes iron crosses and
speaks to this man and to that.
Then we march off.
AfterWard we discuss it. Tjaden
says with establishment:
so that is the all-highest! And
every one, bar nobody, has to stand
up stiff in front of him!" He med
itates: Hindenburg too, he has to
stand up stiff to him, eh?"
Sure" says Kat
Tjaden hasn't finished yet. He
thinks for a while and then asks:
And would king have to stand up
stiff to an EMPEROR"
None Of us is quite sure about it,
but we don't suppose so. They are
both SO exalted that standing strict
ly to attention is probably not in
sisted on.
What rot you hatch out" says
Kat. THE main point is that you
have to stand stiff yourself"
But Tjaden is quite fascinated.
His otherwise prosy fancy is blow
ing bubbles.
But what I would like to know"
says Albert, lis whether there would
not have been a war if the kaiser
had said no"
I'm sure Of this much,' I inter-
ject, "he' was against it from toe
/ first"
We'll, if not him alone, then per-
haps if twenty or thirty people in
the world had said no"
That's probably" I agree, "but
they damned well said yes"
Its queer, when one thinks about
it, goes on Kropp, Eve are here to
protect our fatherland. And the
French are over there to protect
their fatherland. Now, who's in the
right?"
Perhaps BOTH" say I, without be-
lieving it.

me into corner, but our profess

French professors and parsons and
newspapers say that the right is on
their side, what about that?"
THAT 1 don't know" I say, but
whichever way it is there's war all
the same and every month more
countries coming in"
Tjaden still is quite excited and
again joins the conversation, Won
dering just how war gets started.
Mostly by one country badly Of
Tending another" answers Albert
with slight air of superiority.
Then Tjaden pretends to be OBJ
fuse. "A country? 1 don't follow.
A mountain in Germany can not Of
fend a mountain in France. Or a
river. or a wood, or field of
wheat"
Are you really as stupid as that,
or are you just pulling my Lego"
growls Kropp. II don't mean that
at all One people otfends the
other"
Then I haven't any business here
at all" replies Tjaden, 81 don't feel
myself offended"
We'll, let me tell you" says Albert
sourly, "it doesn't apply to tramps
like you"
Then I can be going home right
away" retortS Tjaden, and we all
laugh.
'Ach, man! he means the people
as a whole, the state" exclaims
Muller.

fingers contemptuously. Gen

state; If that's what you are talking
about, no, thank you.
That's right" says Kat, you've
said something for once, Tjaden.
States and home-country, there's a
big difference"
But they go together" insists
Kropp, without the state there
wouldn't be any home-country."
True, but just you consider, al
most all of us are simple folk. And

are laborers, workmen, or poor

years of suffering. She tells her ex-
perience as follows:
Il suffered agonieS with stomach,
liver and kidney trouble for seven
wears, ever since my little girl was
born. I was badly constipated, ex-
tremely nervous, and simply worn
out by loss of sleep and dreadful
pains in my body. I had no pep
at all. was very bilious. had bad
dizzy spells. and my complexion
turned yellow. I went down to 80
pounds. Gas formed on my Stom-
ach every time I ate anything, and
the bloating and cramps panied me
terribly. Food felt like a rock IN
my stomach. At times the pains
were so intense I could hardly
breathe. Often I sat up half the
night trying to get my breath. l
thought I would die. Nothing gave
me any relief, and I was on the
verge of despair when I started to
take Viuns. At once began to i'm
prove. My appetite came back, in
digestion vanished, and now 1 eat
anything I want. 1 sleep fine, am
not nervous any more, and never
have those awful dizzy spells. My
skin is clear and I've gained ten
pounds. Friends all say how well
