He was silent for a moment and looked at me with haggard eyes. Then suddenly he wailed: "Kamerad, sag mir doch Comrade, tell me is my arm still there, or is it gone?" "He wants to know if he's still got his arm," I said to the orderly, who turned to the prisoner and exclaimed: "Arm bon, goot!" "Aber ich fühl ja nichts But I can't feel anything for God's sake tell me if it's still there!
Meantime I shall do the Kamerad act." That afternoon Annette had another visitor. Her nurse, though somewhat dubious as to the wisdom of this indulgence, could not bring herself to refuse her request that McNish should be allowed to see her. "But you must be tired. Didn't Jack tire you?" inquired Adrien. A soft and tender light stole into the girl's dark eyes. "Ah, Jack.
Lives in New York City. Kamerad. FRANK, WALDO. Born in 1800, Long Branch, N. J. Educated in New York public schools and at Yale. Two years' newspaper work in New York. Went to Europe, devoting himself to study of French and German theater. One of the founders and associate editor of the Seven Arts Magazine.

But even as Frank looked down upon him, his foe showed signs of reviving. His eyes opened, and a glare of rage came in them as they rested on Frank. He put his hand to his belt, but Frank was the quicker and in an instant his knife was out and pointed at the German's throat. "Say 'Kamerad," he commanded. The German hesitated, but a tiny prick of the knife decided him.
And it had that effect. The man stopped suddenly, and raised his hands in the air. "Kamerad!" he bellowed. His companion was seen to be fumbling in his belt, as though trying to get a hand grenade or lose his revolver. But the man who had surrendered, realizing what would happen if any resistance were shown, gave his companion a kick that sent him sprawling. "Kamerad!" cried the kicker.

It was at once the most vicious game that her genius for the vicious had ever prompted, and it was put forward at the very time when the fourth liberty loan was in course of being floated.
The rat, terrified by the din, had retired to a recess formed by the bulkhead of the cabin and the fixed wash-basin and was acting strictly on the defensive. "Aha!" exclaimed Laxdale. "Now you're cornered. No use yelling 'Mercy, kamerad."

Take that, you foul murderer!" In the dim light the sentinel saw the retreating figure of Mr. Britling make an extravagant gesture, and wondered what it might mean. Signalling?
"It says here," he explained, "that it is Germany who will speak the last word in this war." Then the novelist laughed angrily and added: "Yes, Germany will speak the last word in the war, and that last word will be 'Kamerad!" When the Prince entered the enchanted castle he noticed about it an air of unusual quiet, as if there were a meeting of the American Peace Society.
His last shot took effect in the head of one of the Fusiliers who were charging the bush with the bayonet; up went his hands, "Kamerad, mercy!" and our officer stepped forward to disarm this chivalrous prisoner. Then they wired forward to our hospital, at that time ten miles ahead, for an ambulance, and proceeded to bury their only casualty and the dead Askaris.
