FRINGE Bernard Buelow, the famous Ger
man diplomatist. who represents the Kaiser in
Italy In the attempt to check diplomacy that
would bring another entry into the field against
his native land is sixty-six years old today
Although 1t has been repeatedly reported that
his negotiations had been disrupted and that
there had been break between Austria and
ITALY, Prince Won BueIow has declared his con-
hdence IN the good sense OF the Italian peo-
pie The great German statesman was born
at lein-Flottbeck, in Prussia on May . ls49
From early youth he has been familiar with
the high politics and diplomacy of Germany
His real diplomatic career began at the for
cign office in Berlin IN 1874. He became fa-
nous at Petrograd Vienna Athens Rome
Paris. Gonstantinopfe and Bucharest but he
never had appointment in England or an
opportunity to study English policies. In 1900
Won Buelow became Chancellor of the German
enpirer-and 1t while in that position he
made the memorable statement that 'between
Germany aud England there are no deep-rooted
political differences" He was great favorite
with the Kaiser who spoke of him az my
Bernhard" until Buelow went to Potsdam
few years ago and suggested to William, H.,
that he must show greater reserve in
-s9eeches, and iFS .nseasaaesA OF national inl@
portance. 1t took moral courage to bear such
Qaessage; for he knew that IL meant break

Suppose Company Came the Back Way,

To people tho very possibility of that
occurrence causes their thoughts to fly to an
unscrubbed back porch, to implanted door
with the knob missing. to the little things that
so quickly accumulate in back yard unless
1T is watched carefully; causes one to hope
the company never noticed the implanted lat
tice work and hope that they didn't notice how
the faucets leaked. etc. etc. These and
dozen other thoughts might occur to many a
housewife.
OF course, it doesn't very often happen that
company does the back way''--but you
do-and you are just as important as COM
pany. You want your surroundings just as
nice you can afford to have them.
To clean up the back way and make II
as presentable possible is Of the big
ideas of the national clean up and paint move
ment.
This is not a local proposition-live cities
everywhere are taking it up and making a sue
cess of clean up and paint up week. and

THT-Y HONOR THEMSELVES.

Memorial exercises within the last few days
TO two distinguished ministers Of the gospel
were not OF interest solely to the seriends of
the two men Of God who were honored- They
were OF interest to all people because of their
significance. The fact that memorial exercises
we're held, and the further fact that they were
so well attended both go to demonstrate that
there IS honor paid In an age called material
istic to men Of spiritual leadership. They show
that people still love TO pay tribute to others
than those who have gained what the world
at times is prone to consider the only success
the attainment of place, or power or wealth.
DR.. English and DR.. Clark never acquired
riches; they never won high public place they
never won power save that which is the her
itage Of intellectual attainment. OF Christian
character and Of devotion to duty. Yet they
are honored today after they have passed away
by thousands who knew them and by other
who have heard Of them only by
reputation. people who can find 1t within
their desire TO pause in the rush OF the modern
world to offer up a prayer OF Thanksgiving that

was acquainted with the great Danish

with the illustrations Mr.. Walker had

Your hair becomes light, wavy, duf-

after a "Danderine hair cleanse" Just
try this-moisten a cloth with a little
Danderine and carefully draw it

Besides identifying the hair at once,
Danderine dissolves every particle of
dandruff; cleanses, purifies and invig-
crates the scalp, forever stopping itch
ing and falling hair.
But what will please you most will
be after a few weeks use when you
will actually see new hair-fine and
downy at first-yes-but really new
hair-growing all over the scalp. If
you care for pretty, soft hair and lots
