ENGLISH SOLDIERS
QUICKLY RECOVER
FROM WAR WOUNDS
Small Percentage of Fatali
ties Due to Modern High
Velocity Steel Jacketed
Bullets Used by Germans.
Iirtctcstlnff details regarding the return
of wounded Biitlsh olllcers and men
from tho fjattlefleld nro given by English
physicians In the latest numbers of lead
ing Kngll.sh medical Journals.
The humano character of tho modern
high velocity steel jacketed bullet, used
by tho Germans, la shown In the wounds
of the Biitlsh soldiers, tho majority of
tho lnjuiles being of such a character
as to merely mako tho man temporarily
helpless as a soldier without permanently
crippling him. The great majoilty of
the wounds are perflations In which tho
bullet passed through tho tissues, leav
inc; behind u comparatively clean wound
which will quickly heal. Most of tho
wounds aie not of a dangerous typo and
require aurglcal rather than medical at
tention. Perforations of the limbs and
wounds of the head aro the most fie
qucnt. A large number of the Injured soldiers,
within a week, hud tccovered sufficiently
to bo taken from the aimy hospitals In
England to convalescent homes. The
men ate all In good npirlts. appreciate
tho hospital caro and are anxious to be
at tho front again. Within a short time
many of tho soldiers will bo able to join
their comrades on the firing line, as the
clean wounds and the sanitary precau
tions tend to shorten the period of re
covery. Each caso of Injury, either by
bullet or shrapnel, Is undergoing a rigid
routine X-ray examination to disclose
the presence of even minute particles of
Injnrlous foreign matter In the tissues,
Tho Might character of tho Injuries Is
shown by tho fact that only a small
number of tho wounded soldleis aro con
fined to bed.

Photos of War Action
and Peace Maneuvers
in Sunday's Intaglio
Just now it's interesting to compare American
preparedness with European fighting efficiency.
You will see examples of both in Sunday's
Intaglio scenes on foreign battlefields and the
serious business of putting our own house in
order as shown by camera shots of the recent
maneuvers at League Island.
You'll be interested, too, in the Intaglio's portrait
studies of Ambassadors, prominent political can
didates and other national figures, society men
and women at the Newport Horse Show and
familiar faces that smile upon you as the curtain
goes up this season.
In the Sporting Magazine George E. McLinn
presents "A Baseball Understudy," contributed
by the game's most successful cross-fire south
paw, Eddie Plank. William H. Rocap tells who
he thinks was the best featherweight, and why.
Parke H. Davis, of the Intercollegiate Rules
Committee, gives a football talk on the playing
code for 1914. "Ty" Cobb shows the pay-envelope
side of baseball.
