SENDS
BERLIN
REPLY

WASHINGTON, d. c., May g..
Formal information that the
United States accepts Germany's
declaration of abandonment of
Its submarine policy and will rely
on scrupulous execution of the
new orders to U-boat commanders
Is contained in a brief note that
has been cabled on behalf of
President Wilson to the Berlin
government.
President Wilson made it par
ticularly clear in his note that
the United States will not tolerate
having Germany guide it's conduct
toward the United States in ac-
cordance with the conduct of any
third nation.
Responsibility in such mat
ters," he pointedly concludes, lis
single, not Joint; absolute, not
relative"
All the other points embodied
In the German reply to May to
the American ultimatum is ignor-
ed by Wilson as matters which
the United States will not dis
cuss.
Wilson's note in full is printed
today on page 3.

GERMAN POLICY TESTED

WASHlNGTON, ID. e., May y.
The American consul at Liver
pool has wired that the crew of
the Cymric has landed at Bantry.
Despite the statement of Con-
sui Frost at Queenstown, that
some sailors had been lost, the
Liverpool consul claims that all
were saved.
1t is said that the fact the Gym
ric was in the services of the
British admiralty will complicate
matters. White Star officials de-
MED this.
IL 1t is true, the steamer is
classed as a warship and America
has no concern. Consul Frost Is
endeavoring to learn IL the
steamer was warned.
The fact that the vessel was
allowed to leave New York would
indicate that It was engaged in Z
neutral business and therefore
was not warship.
1t is believed Germany's new
policy will be tested in the
Cymric case. IL there was nj
warning, the attack violates the
orders. The fact that there were
no Americans aboard does not al
ter the case.

Hair Often Ruined
BY Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very care
fully, If you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain
too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and grease
less), and is better than the most
expensive soap or anything else
you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor.
oughly. Simply moisten the hail
! with water and rub it in. L
makes an abundance of rich
creamy lather, which rinses gu
easily, removing every particle o
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessiv,
oil. The hair dries quickly ant
evenly. and 1t leaves the seal
soft, and the hair fine and silky
bright, lustrous, fluffy and cas-!
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanu
oil at any pharmacy, it's yer,
cheap, and a few ounces will sup
ply every member of the famil.
for months.--Adv.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Most people
foolishly seem to think they are

strength from some stimulating
medicine, secret nostrums or
narcotic drug. said DIR. Sauer, well
known Specialist who has studied
widely both in this country and
Europe. when, as matter OF faU,
real and true strength can only
come from the food you eat But
people often fail to get the strength
out of their food because they
haven't enough iron In their blood

living matter. From their weaken
ed, nervous condition they know
something Is wrong but they can't
tell what, so they generally com
mence doctoring for stomach, liver
or kidney trouble or symptoms of
some other ailment caused by the
lack of iron in the blood. This thing
may go on for years, while the pa
tient suffers untold agony. If you
are not strong or well, you owe IT
to yourself to make the following
test: See how long you can work
or how far you can walk without
becoming tired. Next take two
| five-grain tablets of ordinary nux-
ated Iron three times per day after
meals for two weeks. Then test
your strength again and see for
