FOODS TASTE BETTER COOKED TOBACCO TASTES BETTER TOASTED Since the day of the caveman, who liked his meat raw, civilization has learned a lot about the scientific treat ment of the things we eat Naturally none of us would now prefer to have our meat raw, our po tatoes as they come from the ground, our coffee unroasted. And naturally follows the great dis covery recently made by The Ameri can Tobacco Co. that tobacco tastes better TOASTED! This wonderful new Idea simple like all great inventions was first used in producing the famous LUCKY STRIKE Cigarette made of toasted Burley tobacco. Burleyhas a mellow flavor, entirely different from the tobacco usually used for cigarettes. It is a pipe to bacco and LUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes taste like a pipe. I. C.

It is the ruthless master of the German ceo pie. ... It is our btsiness to see tc It that the history of tie rest of ti e world Is no longer left to its handling " President Wilson, August 27, 1917. GERMAN RUTHLESSXESS AN I.N Cl'LCATED BARBARISM A government asserting its right tc conquer the world, denying any duty except that of Increasing its own power, anda people drilled In this theory, produce a nation whose aeti horrify humanity. Yet those acts are but the logical result of a ruthless ness In war deliberately planned. It was at first said by Americans: "Yes there are occasional German atrocitiesi no doubt, but o there are In every war." We now know that cruelty and barbarism are a dcflni'e part of the German method of making war. First the teachers and professors: "Where German soldiers had to seizf the incendiary torch, or even to pro ceed to the slaughter of citizens, 11 was only in pursuance of the right; of war." "One single highly cultured German warrior represents a highei intellectual and moral life-value than hundreds of the raw children of nature whom England and France, Russia and Italy, oppose to them." "Even II there were no question of vengeance ... the crime of opposing the de velopment of Germany is so great that the most trenchant measures aw scarcely a sufficient punishment fo it" "The more pitiless is the w victis, the greater is the security o the ensuing peace. In the days of ok' conquered peoples were completely a nlhilated. Today that Is physical! impracticable, but one can tmagi re conditions which should approach veo closely to total destruction." Next the army officers: "By steep lng himself in military history an officer will be able to guard himself against excessive humanitarian no tions; it will teach him that certain severities are Indispensable to war, nay, more, that the only true humanity rery often lies in a ruthless appllca tlon of them." "The warrior has need of passion. It must not ... Ik regarded as a necessary evil; nor con demned as a regrettable consequence of physical contact; nor must we seek to restrain it and curb It as a savage and brutal force." Last the clergy: one incident, and one quotation from an address on the Sermon on the Mount is enough for Americans. "Whoever can not prevail upon himself to approve from the bottom of his heart the sinking of the Luiitania, . . . and give himself up to honest delight at this victorious exploit of German defensive power him we judge to be no true German." German teaching has borne fruit and the world Is aghast. Yet we have be come so accustomed to "German atrocities" that some of our horror at them has waned. It is Winer to rc member. Volumes are needed to llet. merely, the proved cases of barbarity for Germany by refusing Investlga tlon through a neutral jury proposer', by Cardinal Mercler, has confessed guilt. No, rather, she acknowledge; the acts charged against her and glo 'Iftes them. But let us not forget that German oldfers, In 1911 with no vstrai:' raped the women of Belgium am' France In the first advance: that the placed screens of children b"fr,-i them; that they executed, as a wan ing against a feared Belgian rising fifty innocent Catholic priests an thousands of innocent citizens; tha' they gave themselves up "in a hun tired different places, to blundering lncendarism, imprisonment, massacres and sacrileges" (Cardinal Mercler); that In France they have deliberately made a desert of territory In Tetreat, with an ohject, not. of this war, but of destroying productivity for at least a generation to come; that Germany openly applauded Turkey uixm th massacre of nearly one-half the popu latlon of Armenia; that Germany, by the cruel starvation and deportation of conquered populations Is attempt lng to "Germanize" the lands of Po land and Russia; that she torpedoes hospital ships with "defenseless beings, wounded or mutilated in war, and women who are devoting them selves to the work of relief and char ity" (protest of the International Red Cross Committee at Geneva); that no other government, In the world's his tory, ever ordered or approved a Lusilania. This war is lost, and a greater villi follow it, unless it is fought to the point where Germany knows for all time that such acts are, in the end, fatal to the government that commits them.
