A Sure Way To
There is one sore way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, common liquid arvon
from any drof store (this is atl yoa will
need), apply it at night when retiring
use enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve, and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
ot the scalp will stop instantly and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
and soft, and look and feel a hundred
times better.

INDICTS GERMANY

chantmen of belligerent ownership as
auxiliary vessels ot war which it
would have the right io destroy with
out warning.
The law of nations has long recog
nized the right of merchantmen to
carry arms for protection, to use them
to repel attack, though to use them in
such circumstances, it their own
risk hut the imperial German gov-:
eminent claimed the right to set theso
understandings aside in circumstances'!
which it deemed extraordinary. Even
the terms in which It annonunced its
purpose, thus still further to relax the,
restraints it had previously professed
its willingness and desire to put upon
the operations of its submarines car-!
rled the plain implication that at least
vessels which were not armed would,
still be exempt from destruction with
out warning and that personal safety
would be accorded their passengers\
and crews but even that limitation
if it was over practicable to observe:
it, has in fact constituted no check at
all upon the destruction of ships of
every sort.
Again and again the imperlhl Ger-1
man government has given this gov-1
ernment its solemn assurances that at
least passenger ships would not be
thus dealth with, and yet it has again
and again permited Its undersea com-a
manders to disregard those assur
ances with entire impunity. Great lin
ers like the Ltfsltania, and the Arabic
and mere ferry boats like the Sussex
have been attacked without a mo
ment's warning, sometimes -before
they had even become aware that they
were In the presence of an armed ves
sel of the enemy and the lives of non
combatants, passengers and crew,
have been sacrificed wholesale, in a
manner which the government of the
United States cannot but regard as
wanton and without the slightest color
of justification. No limit of any kind
has in fact been Bet to the indiscrim
inate pursuit and destruction of mer
chantmen of all kinds and nationali
ties within the waters, constantly ex
tending in area where these opera
tlos have been carried on and the
roll of Americans who have lost their
lives on ships thus attacked and de
stroyed has grown month by month
until the ominous toll has mounted
into the hundreds.
One of the latest and most shock
ing instances of this method of war
fare was that of the destruction of the
French cross-channel steamer Sussex.
It must stand forth as the sinking of
the steamer LuBitanla did, as so singu
larly tragical and unjustifiable as to
constitute a truly terrible example of
the inhumanity of submarine warfare
as the commanders of German ves
sels have for the past twelve months
been conducting it. If this Instance
stood alone, some explanation, some
disavowal by the German government,
some evidence of criminal mistake or
wilful disobedience on the part of the
commander of the vessel that fired the
torpedo, might be sought or enter
tained but unhappily it does not
stand alone. Recent events make the
conclusion Inevitable that It is only
one instance, even though it 'be one of
the most extreme and distressing in
stances, of the spirit and method of
warfare which the imperial (Herman
government has mistakenly adopted,
and which from the first exposed that
government to the reproach of thrust
ing all neutral rights aside in pursuit
of its immediate objects.
The government of the United
States has been very patient. At
every stage of this distressing experi
ence of tragedy after tragedy in which
its own citizens were involved it has
sought to be restrained from any ex
treme course of action or of protest
by a thoughtful consideration of the
extraordinary circumstances of this
unprecedented war, and actuated in
all that It said or did by the senti
ments of genuine friendship which
the people of the United States have
always entertained and continue to en
tertain toward the German nation. It
has, of course, accepted the successive
explanations and assurances of the
imperial German government as giv
en in entire sincerity and "good faith
and has hoped even against hope that
it would prove to be possible for the
German government so to order and
control the acts of its naval com
manders as to square its policy with
the principles of humanity as em
bodied in the laws of natioils. It has
been willing to wait until the signifi
cance of the acts became absolutely
unmlstakeable and susceptible of but
one Interpretation.
That point has now unhappily been
reached. The facts are susceptible of
but one interpretation. The im
perial German government has been
unable to put any limits or restraints
upon its warfare against either
freight or passenger ships. It has
therefore become painfully evident
that the position which this govern
ment took at the very outset is inevit
able. namely that the use of the subma
rines for the destruction of an
enemy's commerce is of necessity, be
cause of the very character of the
vessels employed and the very
methods of attack which their em
ployment of course involves, incom
patible with the principles of human
ity the long established and Incontro
vertible rights of neutrals and the
Bacred immunities of non-combatants.
I have deemed It my duty there
fore to say# to the imperial German
government that if it is still its pur
pose to prosecute relentless and in
determinate warfare against vessels
of commerce by the use of subma
rines, notwithstanding the now dem
onstrated impossibility of conducting
that warfare in accordance with
what the government of the U. S.
must consider the Bacred and indis
putable rules of international law and
the universally
recognized
-v.
dictates of
humanity the government of tho
United States is at last forced to the
conclusion that there is but one
course It can pursne and that un
less the imperial government should
now immediately declare and effect
an abandonment of its present
methods of warfare against passen
ger and freight vessels, this govern
ment can have no choice but to
sever diplomatic relations with the
government of the German empire
altogether.

the keenest regret the possibility of
the action contemplated I am sure all
thoughtful Americans will look for
ward to with unaffected reluctance.
But we cannot forget that we are in
some sort and by the force of cir
cumstances the responsible spokes
man of the rights of humanity and
that we cannot remain silent while
those rights seem in process of being
swept utterly away in the maelstrom
of this terrible war. We owe it to
a due regard for our own rights as a
nation to our sense of duty, as a rep
resentative of the rights of neutrals
the world over and to a Just concep
tion of the rights of mankind to take
this stand, now with the utmost
solemnity and firmness.
I have taken it and taken it in the
confidence that it will meet with your
approval and support. All sober mind
ed men must unite in hoping that the
Imperial German government which
has in other circumstances stood as
the champion of all that we are now
contending for in the interest of
humanity may recognize the justice
of our demands and meet them in the
spirit in which they are made.

ever may* betide. Have you not seen
the lovelight in a dog's eyes—
In his eyes you'll see Just—love, love,
love.
And the love in their depths Is true.
A dog has so many admirable qual
ities that it would be no light under
taking to enumerate them all. He is
not difficult to live with, for he does
not criticise nor scold. He never mis
understands nor is misunderstood. If
he has aches or pains, or is moody, he
keeps his troubles to himself. What
ever sort of person a man may be, or
whatever he ra*y do, his dog is always
glad to see him when he comes home
