think It would be the United States
and Germany would want relations
between herself and the mediatins
country not to be unfriendly.
| If you can realize, diplomats de.
clare, as they say they themselves
can realize, that mediation must have
it's part in the conclusion Of the
European war; since the only possible
outcome now seen is utter exhaustion
for all concerned, and diplomatic
struggle for advantage in the settle
ment, then you can realize why Ger
many wants friend in America.
This is the German view from the
inside.
OF course nothing is said as to the
terms that Germany has in mind, but
indemnity from France and from Bel
GUM are known to figure in the cal
culations. Being able to anticipate
the feeling this country may have IN
the matter of exacting tribute from
Belgium for which the setting free
of Poland might not seem sufficient
compensation, Germany knows she
needs to improve present relationship
it is said; satisfactory adjustment OF
issues involved In the Lusitania incl
dent and by her whole submarine pol
icy offers the only chance.
So his friends say, the ambassador
sees it, and they repeat he is expert
enced in diplomacy.

Are in the Dark.
BERLIN, (via The Hague), June B.
Both the German public and mem
bers of the American colony here are
completely in the dark as to the prob
able contents of President Wilson's
rejoinder to the German reply in the
Lusitania case.
With scarcely any exception, the
German newspapers have RETAINED
from forecasting, except in most
general way, what America will say
to Germany's request for an agree
ment on statement of facts The
newspapers, however, have reprinted
excerpts from English papers, repre-
senting that the German note failed
to satisfy the American government.
News that special representative
named by Ambassador Bsrnstorff was
on his way to Berlin to explain the
exact attitude of the American gov
eminent to the German foreign office,
was made public here today and re-
ceived with general satisfaction.
Leading Americans in Berlin who are
deeply interested in the present nego- !
tiations expressed the hope that a !
personal interchange of views would |
pave the way for complete under
standing.
The American embassy for several
days has been collecting passports
held by persons here who were not
entitled to them. At the request of
Ambassador Gerard, two passports
were taken from members of the stats
of Berlin newspapers who were not
American citizens.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded gray hair to its nat ural color dates back to grandm oth- CTS time She used it to keep her hear beautifully dark, glossy and abundant Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mix ture was applied with wonderful ef- feet.
 But brewing at home is mussy and out date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a 50-cent bottle of 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound," you will get this famous old recipe which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dan druff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after an- other application or two it becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and abundant.

Tho PuriSts Take Kansas. (New York PreSS.)

He who thinks culture and espe- cially grammar, are indigenous to the East, would do we'll to reread some dispatches from Kansas. No longer may the natives of the Corn State be expected to indulge in a picturesque sort of verbiage which suggests Bret Harte's frontier tales.
 True the Kansans have made only a beginning. They are centring a concerted attack upon that popular but colloquial expression "ain't" and they have formed an Anti Amt" Association through which to carry on their propaganda. That is to be the starting point, but misuse of the words ''come," "came" and nice is to be placed under the ban
 Then, perhaps though this is only speculation, they will be ready to form an organization for the promo tion of the use of the semicolon. "A plea for a restoration of that punc- tuation mark recently was made by Henry James who deplored it's grad ua1 falling into disuse and pointed out, in polysyllabic and heavily punc- tuated sentences, why the mainten- ance of literature pure and unde- filed depended upon it's retention.
 Such a. pronouncement from a scion of Eastern letters, whose east ness Gas he might put it) was so inn perative that it landed him clear across the Atlantic and made him a British subject, clearly shows that the future of the language, including it's semicolons, is clearly up to the West.
 Though the first organized aspira- tions of Kansas are modest, they may be even the forerunner of an orgy of the purists whose like the East has never yet contemplated.
