Berlin, June "A profound sensa- ton has been caused by the speech made Monday before the Reichstag bv Chancellor Won Hollweg in which he declared that any further suggestions of peace by Germany would be futile and evil
 His appeal to the nation to hold on until victory was theirs and the cate gorical defiance he hurled at England were greeted with thunders of ap- plause. At the conclusion of his speech, the Chancellor received tre- mendous ovation, the cheering being renewed again and again.
 All parties joined in the, ovation with the exception of the conserva- tives and the socialists who seeded with pr. Liebknecht.
 The Chancellor appealed for the unity of all parties. declaring that po- 1itical lines ought to be obliterated during the prosecution of the war The conclusion of his speech brought almost the entire house to their feet in a wild outburst of enthusiasm.
 'I see the entire nation,'' he. said Gin heroic stature fighting for it's flu ture, our sons and brothers fighting 2 and dying side by side. There we see the equal love for home in all. The sacred flame of love of home steels every heart, so that they defy death and suffer death in thousands. Only
  cape the affecting impression of the great primitive strength of this peo- pie.
 My belief in my people and my love for my people gives me a. con- viction firm a rock that we shall fight and conquer as we have fought and conquered hitherto. Our enemies wish to let it go on to the end. We fear neither death nor the devil, not even the hunger devil which they wish to send into our country. The men who fight out there around Verdun who fight under Hindenburg, our proud b1uejackets who showed AL bion that the rats bite, are fashioned from a breed thatk now how to bear privations. These pr1vation are here, admit it openly, but we will bear them.
 ''In this fight against hunger we will also make progress. Gracious Heaven allowed a good harvest this year. It will not be worse but better than in the previous hard year. This calcu- 1ation of our enemies on our econo- mic difficulties will prove deceptive.
 Another of their calculations was sharply corrected by our young navy

Many Russians Now
 Escape Into Holland

The Hague, Netherlands, June 7- There has been a striking increase in the number of escaped Russian pris- oners of war to reach Dutch territory in the last few weeks, arrivals being reported almost daily. The fugitive seldom comes alone, usually arriving in parties varying from two or three to 8, dozen. The increase is appar- entIy due to the greater facilities of fered for escape by the German policy of utilizing the labor of so many thou sands of such men in Belgium and elsewhere. The number of escapes in to Holland in the last few months may be put at several hundreds many of the men hailing from remote parts of the Russian Empire.

Few diseases of the hair known as parasitical cause 1t to fall out. A microscopic parasite enters the hair
 follicile and destorys the hair-b bulb SO difference of opinion as to the cause of hair falling out when 1t Is simply n case of calling hair not due to any parasitical disease. I believe that It is always due to a depressed condition of the nervous system The hair has very little vital connection with the skin The hair follicile is like cis- tern, with a large, bulging interior and small opening at the top. The hair
 bulb fits more or less perfectly into this cistern- shaped cavity. The bulb ous end of the hair being larger than the opening of the hair-folllc1e, holds 1t to its place. Everything depends upon the elasticity of the skin. Any fiabbiness of the skin will Immediately cause the narrow opening of the hair follicle to dilate and allow the hair to slip out of It's place. Not only this, lowered vital states will also cause the hair to shrink, and the bulbous ex- tremity of the hair becomes smaller. and 1t will slip out of It's place. Fall ing hair always depends upon a low cred state of vitality of that portion Of the skin that covers the scalp. In dor life, business worry, neglect of muscular development the wearing of a tight hat that compresses the arteries of the temples and many other causes bring this about Going hareheaded massaging the scalp, and other hvgian- ic measure which tends toward in- creasing the vitality of the whole body, is the only treatment.
 Do not wet the hair with anything. Never use hair tonics of any sort upon ii. Do not wash 1t with water Keep 1t cut short which exposes the hair less to pulls which forcibly drag the hair out of It's folliele. In rubbing the hair 1t should not be pulled.
 With the use of a good bristIe brush the whole scalp can be thoroughly treated. If much outdoors wear a soft -brimmed hat, that exerts no pres sure on the sides of the head.

constantly exfoliated from the scalp. invisible epidermal scales. Scales small and transparent In dandrufr. A large number of these invisible scales are agglutinated together, forming A scab of considerable size. Under the miscroscope each one of these pieces Is divisible into many hundred small scales, which are simply the epider- mai sccles. There Is nothing wrong this exfoliation. It should go on con- tinuously; but the difficulty is that these scales agglutinate, or stick to- gether, forming a mass. The cause of this Is deranged condition of the glands of the sk.n which secrete the 1 oil or the skin. Ordinarily, this oil Is 'ery thin, and ot sticky in character. 1t keeps the skin soft and pliable. Whenever the skin becomes flabby or bloodless, or the nerves of the skin deranged. then the oil-glands fail to H' NAlSAl NOih PIOpcIly anu B6CTete viscid quality of oil which causes the epidermal scales to stock together and to form masses that are visible to the eye or dandruH. It depends upon the same condition that causes falling hair. Often dandruff Is not associated with failing hair, and 1t sometimes happens hat falling hair is not associated with 1andruff. But when they are asso. ciated they doubtless both depend upon a devitalized condition of the ikin covering the scalp. By discon- tinuing the use of liquids and hair .onics curing the diseases of the rest of the body and vigorously rubbing the scalp with brush and fingers. the dandruff will disappear.

SERBIAN KINGS WERE
 POOR POLITICIANS
Books on Subject Found in Royal
 Library Captured By Germans
Correspondence of The Associated Press)

tCorrespondence of The Associated Press,
 Belgrade, Dec. 18.-European poIi- tics did not greatly interest the Ser bian kings before Peter, if the con- tents of the royal library can be re- garded as throwing light on the stud ies of the kingdom's rulers. No books of importance on political sub jects were acquired before Peters accession, but a very respectable number were added to the library in the twelve years of his reign.
 Another department of the library dating from his time is looked upon by the German and Austro- Hungarian conquerers of the city as significant. It is devoted to catalogues and works of general information concerning great arms factories of the world in cluding Putiloff, Creusot, Armstrong and Krupp. Many excellent pictures are includeds in this department.
 Being Catalogued.
 Most of the treasurs and furnish ings of the Konak (royal palace) were removed when the royal family left the city, but the library was left be- hind. A Vienna librarian, for the last fifteen years in charge of the Oriental language department of the Vienna royal library, has been en- trusted With the cataloguing of the Serbian royal library. He told the As sociated Press representatives some interesting details about the collec- ton.
 The oldest book in the library, which is neither of great extent nor great worth, dates from 1880, and is in German. Few old Serbian books were found The books acquired be- fore the reign of Alexander are chief ly of the sort found in any middle class family's library . They are chiefly in French The books added during Alexander's reign are mainly fiction. No books of political import ance were acquired by him.
 Poetry to Queen DraGa An interesting collection datin g from this period comprises vast num- bers of amatory poems written by women and children in praise of Queen Draga, who appears to have been greatly beloved by the common people. Tn the same department are many musical compositions, chiefly military marches, dedicated to King Alexander Many of these, according to the librarian, were rather triumphs of musical nemonics than original compositions of worth.
 A visitors register kept by the Serbian royal librarian shows that the great majority of visitors consists of British students of the Balkan ques- tion. They appear to have made ex- tended use of the books available.
 All political books have been sent to Vienna, where they will be studied for any matters of importance to the conquerors.

REPORT MANY CASES a<
 OF RHEUMATISM NOW
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry; Avoid Exposure and Eat
 Less Meat.

Stay off the damp ground, avoid eX- posture, Keep feet dry, eat less meat drink lots of water and above all take a spoonful of salts occasionally to keep down uric acid.
 Rheumatism is caused by poisonous toxin, called uric acid, which is gen. erated in the bowels and absorbed in- to the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine. The pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impur- ity. In damp and chilly, cold weath- CT the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accommodating and cir culating through the system, eventual ly settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheum atism.
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put a tablespoon full in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent re- suits by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia- water drink which overcomes uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as we'll.
