chairman Of the Marconl company. lin.
tied. today told the senate committee In.
vestigatins the Titanic disaster that hs
authorized the wireless operators OF the
Carpathia and Titanic to sell the stories
Of the great catastrophe for publication,
Mr.. Marconi explained that in giving
consent for the sale OF these stories he
had not attempted In any way to sup
press general information OF the wreck,
He denied any knowledge OF wireless
messages to the Carpathia operators,
telling them to keep your mouths shut
and hold out for four figures" These
messages. one Of them signed Maroon"
were picked up BY the United States bat
tleship Florida the night the carpathia
was coming in and forwarded TO the sec
retary Of the navy. Mr.. Marconi de-
clared he never authorized these mes
sages, but did give consent that the op-
orators could receive money.
Early in his testimony Mr.. Mareoni
told Of repeated attempts he had made
during Sunday Monday and the days
following the tragedy for information.
Senator Smith said to Mr.. Marconi:
Il would like to have your own best
judgment as TO whether the custom es-
tablished by Operator Binns in the Re.
public disaster of selling his news. and
the privilege you gave to Cottam In the
Titanic disaster. had anything to do with
your failure to get this information and
the public deprived OF the details Of this
horror?'
Mr.. Marconi said he did not think 20,
and repeatedly insisted he had not at
tempted to suppress any details Of the
horror.

There is this about 1t that l want to

Mildredina Hair Remedy
GROWS HAIR
AND WE CAN PROVE IT

lair troubles, like many other dis
eases, lave been wrongly diagnosed
and altogc; her misunderstood. The
hair itself is not the thing to be
treated, for the reason that it is sim
ply product of the scalp and Who'll
~ dependent upon its action. The
scalp is the very soil in which the
hair is produced, nutured and grows
and it alone should receive the at
tcntion if results are to be expected.
1t would do no earthly good to treat
the stem of plant with view Of
making it grow and become more
beautiful soil in which the
plant grows must be attended to.
Therefore, the scalp in which the
hair grows must receive the atten-
ton if you expect it to grow and be-
come more beautiful.
Loss of hair is caused by the scalp
drying up, or losing its supply Of
moisture or nutriment; when bald
ness occurs the scalp has simpl.- lost
all its nourishment, leaving nothing
for the hair to feed upon Ga plant or
tree woUld die under similar condi-
tiOns.)
The natural thing to do in either
case, is to replenish the soil or scalp
will grow and multiply as nature in
tended it should.
Mildredina Hair Remedy makes
the scalp clean. healthy and whole
som ;. 1t quickly penctrates the por-
es = ~ stmulates the hair glands
and scalp Tissues, thereby promoting
the growth of the hair.
Its action is quick and the hair
soon shows the effect of it's wonder
iul cleansing and stimulating quail
ties.
One 90 cent bottle is enough to CON
vince you of its great worth as "a hair
growing and hair identifying rem
cdy-try it and see for yourself.
Mildredina Hair Remedy is put up
in 5Oc and $l.Oo bottles. Sample bot
tie by mail for lOc. If your drug
gist will not supply you, we will send

London.-The protocol arranging an
armistice was signed Tuesday by the
Turkish and Bulgarian delegates, the
latter representing also Seryia and
Montenegro. Prior to this there had
been a long sitting of the Turkish
council OF ministers to consider fresh
proposals submitted by the allies
The refusal of Greece to sign the
drmistice is susceptible Of different
interpretations.
In the first place, as tacit armiS-
tice has been in existence more than
week il Is not impossible that the
negotiations may have served to bring
about an agreement on the general
principles of the peace terms, such as
would promise the speedy arrange
ment of a peace treaty when the con
ference meets, as Is now expected in
London. In this case the fact that
Greece is standing out from the peace
protocol would not be of great import
ance.
In the second place the Greek abb
stcntion may mean serious split
among the allies, arising from jeal-
ousies concerning the possession of
Saloniki and the nsistcnce of the
Greeks on the capitulation of Adrian
ople, Scutari and Ianina,
Other factors that may Influence the
situation are to be found in the fact
that Turkey recently sought to con
Clude a separate treaty of peace with
Greece, that Bulgaria apparently is
not unwilling to enter into an alliance
with Turkey, and that the allies are
desirous that Turkey shall enter the
Balkan customs league.
There is rumor in Sofia that a sug.
Ecstion has been made to substitute
Roumania for Greece in the Balkan
league. II seems clear from the report
that Bulgaria will ignore the Greek of
fer to land an army in Gallipol penin-
sula and to send her fleet TO attack
the Dardanelles. that the relations be-
tween Greece and Bulgaria are greatly
strained and those signs OF dissension
among the allies leave the situation
full of dangerous possibilities.
