The story is well told, and will command the attention of readers everywhere. Many of the author's opinions and statements are fantastic from the American point of view, but interest in the narrative is increased, rather than lessoned, by this fact. Old controversies are sure to be revived, old discussions renewed, by. the former kaiser's defense of Germany and his attacks on the leaders of other nations. For instance, he takes seriously the old absurd canard about a secret treaty against Germany and Austria, in 1897, by the United States, Great Britain and France. This is only one of his declarations that will amaze--and amuse--the American reader. Beginning with a chapter on Bismarck, the ex-emperor traces his- tory through four decades. In a general way the story is chronological, although in the opening chapters the writer often diverges into events long past, or into the remote future. But from the time he reaches the period immediately preceding the world war the story moves in rapid action and is in many respects informative, notwithstanding the author's prejudice, eccen- tricity, and, in many instances, his surprising misinformation. It is a story of absorbing interest to the reader of history and of cur- rent events alike, and is bound to create a world of discussion. It deals not only with the direct events of the war, but covers a mass of most important collateral matter intimately or remotely related to the war. Here are some of the significant "high spots" in a topical analysis of g gh sp p the story: Why Bismarck Went Out Diplomacy With England Tangier Visit and Moroccan Crisis Germany's Denial of War Aims Propaganda Before War Germans and Art Treasures "The Wrong of Versailles" Secret Talks with the Czar Visit to Victoria's Deathbed King Edward's "Encirclement" Failure of German Diplomacy Attitude of Sir Edward Gray Emperor Karl of Austria Swapping Zanzibar for Heligoland Chamberlain Offer of Alliance Russians as Asiatics Germany's Naval Plans Charges of Atrocities Wilson and the 14 Points Germany When Defeat came Fatherland and World's Opinion The Flight to Holland Why Kaiser Avoided Suicide Germany of the Future Publication of this remarkable autobiography began this week in The Chicago Daily News--the first installment on Tuesday, September 26. Newsdealers throughout the northwest have increased their usual supply of the paper, and can give new readers either back numbers beginning with Tuesday, or an advance "reprint" of all the chapters printed in the paper from Tuesday, September 26, to Saturday, September 30, thus insuring to every new reader "The German Kaiser's Own Story" from the beginning. Readers who find it more convenient to get the paper by mail may send $1.00 to The Chicago Daily News, 15 North Wells street, Chicago, and get it, postage paid, daily for two months.
