The Easiest Way
To End Dandruff

There is one sure way that
never fails to remove dandruff
completely and that is to dissolve
1t. This destroys 1t entirely. To
do this, just get about four ounces
of plain, ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring;
use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub 1t in gently with the fin
ger tips.
BY morning, most IL not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications
will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every siugle sign
and trace OF 1t, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itch.

stop instantly, and your hair will
be fluffy, lustrous. glossy, silky
and soft, and look and feel hun.

You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. II is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need
This simple remedy has never

 One dispatch from Ambassador Sharpe contained the information that Miss Elizabeth Baldwin of Baltimore who first was reported to have been killed in the explosion which dam aged the Sussex, was at WimereuH
 near Boulogne, France, and that she was seriously injured.
 Another dispatch from Ambassad do, Page at London contained informa- tion regarding other survivors. This in substance was as follows: Consul Shoecraft at Dover reports that J. D. Amitage is in the hospital shock and bruises not serious. Please inform Myron c. Taylor, New York w. G. Penfield at Dover not seriously

Tell of Villa Defeat

QUERETARO Mex, March 27.-
 The minister of war, General Obre- gon, received advices today from General Gavira describing another se-
 were blow inflicted on the Villa ban dits in the neighborhood of Nami- quipa. The date on which the de-
 feat was administered is not men, tioned, but Villa and his followers
 were said to be surrounded In the skirmish, the advices say, 13 bandits were killed and 100 horses and number of stands of arms were captured.
 General Gavira optimistically de- clared in his dispatches that Villa Twas being so closely harrassed as to
 make his capture a question of only a short time
 It is reported that General Car ranza, the members of his cabinet and other high government officials
 will leave here for Mexico City in a few days. The trip will be in the
 nature of a visit only, the president and his party returning shortly to Queretaro, which will remain the pro- visional capital of the republic.'

be unable to carry enough fuel for the return flight"
 He told about a flight of some of his men over a mountain pass which the aviators described as some of the toughest country in Mexico.
 Just before reaching the pass they were above a gorge 1000 feet deep. No landing place was observed within 15 miles of this pass. One of the fliers had difficulty in rising to the necessary altitude. He turned and wheeled his machine, trying to ascend, but the strong air currents swept him around until he was within about twenty feet of the tree tops near the summit of the bass. After he had grazed the trees, i without being able to fight his way l higher through the treacherous winds, i he was forced to turn back.
 The other aviators made the flight
 Two of the aviatOrs, carrying dispatch
 es, landed near a camp in a wind which
 they described as the worst encountered by any of the squadron since the flight | for the Mackay trophy in 1914 from
 San Diego, Cal, to Los Angelts, when
 Lieutenant Fred Gersterner, an ob- server, was killed.
 l The bad air near this camp drove
 one of the machines into a spiral nose glide, in which it dropped about 1,00( feet. When the aviator came out o1
 the glide he saw some cavalrymen way l ing blanket and he finished the de-
 scent, delivering his orders safely. Five minutes later the second aviator on this particular trip came overhead, his ma chine rocking like boat in a rough
 sea- The second plane also landed
 safely. After the landing had been ac-
 complshed the wind was so strong that it picked up one machine and sci
 it back 70 or 80 feet. The wind in-
 creased and the aviators remained fol two days out on the prairie.

 concerned the burden of proof VIII rest upon the United States. In such an event if the evidence at hand warrants it, the first action or the United States would be to ask the German government for an explana- ton If, however, the facts were not deemed to be sufficiently conclusive, it is quite probable that the United States would be forced to accept German disclaimer and allow the case of the Sussex to take it's place with that of the British steamer Persia, destroyed by some mysterious agent.
 The case of the sinking of the Persia apparently is as much Of a mystery now as it was the day after the vessel went down in the Mediter- ranean with Americans on board. The dispatch received by the gov ernment today the Turkish govern ment denied that any of it's subma- rines were concerned in the disaster. Previously Germany and Austria had denied responsibility. It was inti- mated at the state department that further investigations were being or had been conducted, although their nature was not disclosed.
 A dispatch received by the state department today officially announced that no American lives had been lost on the Sussex. The message was from Ambassador Page at London who said Ambassador Sharpe al Paris reported that all the Americans who were aboard the steamer had been saved.
 A dispatch from Consul Armstrone at Bristol, England, contained infor- nation regarding the sinking of the Englishman. This read substantially as follows:
 1 Local agent of the Dominion Linf
 is informed from Liverpool that tho

The Italian Statement

ROME, March 27, via London, March 28-The following official communica- ton was issued today:
 The artillery duel was renewed Sat
 urday in the zone of Rovereto and the
 upper Astion. Enemy troop movements
 in the Astico valley and trains arriving at the CaldonaZzo station were shelled repeatedly by our artillery.
 After intense artillery preparations
 the enemy attacked in force our posi-
 tiOns on Val PiccalO and succeeded in occupying one trench. Our violent counter attack, which was launched along the whole front from Monte CrOce
 to Val Grande brought into our pos session enemy entrenchments at Se- letta Freikofel and the Cavallo pass,
 where we took 63 prisoners including
 three officers.
 At Val PiccalO the combat was a
 bitter one, lasting thirty hours. After
 six furious attacks our infantry charg- ed with the bayonet on the position
 previously lost and won back all of it. Hundreds of the bodies of the enemy
 remain on the ground
 "AlOng the remainder of the front there has been artillery duels which were particularly violent on the heights northwest of Gorizia This morning groups of enemy flew over the plain between the IsonzO and Piave, in an attempt to hinder our communications and damage the bridges. The attempt failed completely. Forced to remain at a great height by our artillery fire the airmen threw some dozen of bombs without killing anyone or damakint anything.
 Our artillery brought down one ma
 chine near Ajello, and a seaplane in
 the Grado Lagoon, while a third ma chine was felled by rifle fire near the l Prieula bridgehead. One of the enemy aviators, a major commanding this 1 squadron, was killed. Five others were l made prisoners"

 The secretary said the destruction of
 two army aeroplanes had not been ex-
 plained as yet to the department Four of the six of our machines on the bor-
 der were under repair, leaving only two
 of the original eight in actual service The army has plenty of skilled avi- ators to operate the machines that will be purchased, Mir. Baker added. He said that while the Aero club had volun- teered the services of it's members and machines, the law forbade their ac- ceptance.
 The negotiation of a protocol cover ing use of the Mexican railways and other matters beyond the border en- countered a delay today with the re- ceipt of General CarranZa's sugges- tions as to the modification and addi- tions to the plan worked out by Coun- sellor Polk of the State department and Eliseo Arredondo, ambassador del egate. MT. Arredondo handed the communication to Secretary Lansing, who refused to comment. There are indications, however, that the sugges- tions will require considerable study and possibly furthter interchanges with General Carranza.
 General Carranza desires to delay re- plying to the request for the use of cer- l tain Mexican railroads until the proto- col has been agreed to, but the state de- | partment will press for prompt dispo- sition of the request as a separate issue.

 WASHINGTON, March 27.-With the explanation that he "hated to say it. rear Admiral Bradley A. Fiske. former aide for operations. told the house naval committee today that in fighting strength the United States navy was only about half as strong as Germany. He discussed the subject reluctantly but in response to ques- tions expressed opinion that all things considered, two to one would rot be very far away in an estimate of the comparative strength of the German anu American fleets.
 The admiral declared that the navy was not getting value received for money expended and was only about 75 per cent of what it should be under a better system of administration.
 Admiral Fiske explained to the
