TURKEY BLAMEs GERMANS

The Grand Vizier of Turkey has
apologized on behalf of his gov
eminent for the warlike opera
tions of the Turkish fleet under
the German commanders in the
Black sea. and blames the attack
on Russian vessels and Russian
ports to the German officers com
handing the Turkish vessels.
However. Turkey refuses to dis
miss the German officers from
her ships.
:. There is every reason to be-
lieve. however. that despite this
mere apology without making any
reparation. will not prevent war
against Turkey now. and it may be
safely said this week that eleven
nations are now at war in the
east. Several Russian steamers
have been sunk by the Turkish
vessels and the war is ON in the
Black sea also.

our own peace and self-control in

Former Governor Stuart, of Penn
sylvania, had the good grace and in
tegrity last week to publicly rebuke
his fellow Republicans who persist in
calamity bowling, for which, he de-
clared, there is no basis either in
present conditions or the outlook for
the future. That Mr.. Stuart is right
the commercial news evidences every
day.
The price of sterling exchange is
now, for the first time since the
European war began, below the price
at which it is profitable to export the
metal, which means that the buying
of Europe in our markets is now
heavy enough to turn the balance of
trade in our favor and putting an
end to uneasiness over gold ship
ments. The export business has
taken marked forward movement
and twice within week all records
have been broken by exports for one
day from New York, exceeding &c.
100000 in each instance.
Great improvement is noted in the
cotton situation, 5000 bales having
been shipped in one day from each
of the southern ports. The financing
of that crop is now practically as
sured and the declaration of Great
Britain that it has no intention of in
terfering with cotton shipments I'M
der a neutral flag should have a
further stimulating effect. Accord
ing to the New York Sun, foreign
business to the amount of 5000, 00O,-
900 has been placed in our exporting
markets within three weeks.
Much of the export business of
course, is in the goods and materials
bought by the warning nations. But
business is coming from South Amer
lea as we'll as from Europe, and the
South American business is bound to
largely increase if, as now seems in
evitable, the European war is greatly
prolonged. With the largest foreign
trade we have ever had in sight, do
nestle business is certain to benefit
accordingly. The calamity howlers
will soon be silenced.

DANORUFf SURELY
DESTROYS THE HAIR
Makes 1t Dull, Brittle, Lifeless, and
Causes Ii To Fall Out.

Girls--if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy. silky hair. do by
all means get rid of dandruff, for
it will starve your hair and ruin it
II you don't.
II doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash 1t out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to
dissolve 1t, then YOU destroy it en-
tirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon;
apply 1t at night when retiring
use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the fin
ger tips.
BY morning. most If not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de-
stroy every single sign and trace
of it.
You will find, too, that all Itch
Ing and digging of the scalp will
stop. and your hair will be silky,
fluffy, lustrous, soft, and look and
feel a hundred times better. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. 1t Is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no mat
ter how much dandruff you have.
This simple remedy never fails.

AT FORD PLANT
MUST SHOW FITNESS FOR WORK

The painstaking manner in
which the new wage scale was
evolved and the thorough way in
which the entire plan is being
fortified by elaborate follow-up
work is illustrated by several fea-
lures. One of the most signifi-
cant relates to the handling of
employees in the shops to discover
by thorough test their fitness for
work in the various departments,
and thus protect them against a
seeming failure to make good
and a summary dismissal.

Conditions in the vicinity of the
Ford Motor company's plant have
once more resumed their normal
aspect. No longer do thousands
of men besiege the entrances on
Manchester avenue in the hope of
securing positions under the new
wage regime. They have finally
come to realize that no such cas-

ing followed in adding to the
working force.
