CUBA ENTERS WORLD WAR.
First Latin-American Country to Offer
Support to United States.

Havana.-Cuba, not yet out of her
teens as a republic, is at wal with
Germany--the first Of the Latin Amer
lean countries to range herself along
side the United States, her liberator
and protector.
At 7:16 Saturday night, April z,
President Menocal affixed his sigma,
ture to the joint resolution passed
unanimously late in the afternoon by
both the senate and house without a
dissenting voice being raised, thus
putting into effect the declaration that
a state of war exists between Cuba
and the imperial German government.
Late Saturday afternoon the chief
inspector of the port notified Eusebio
Azpiazu, secretary to the president,
that he had observed large volumes of
smoke pouring from the funnel of the
self-interned German ship Bavaria.
Port police went aboard the ship and
were informed by her commander,
Captain Graafies, that he, in compli.
ance with orders from his government,
had attempted to damage the ma
chinery in order to render the ship
useless.
The crew, together with the captain
and his wife, were removed, as were
the crews of three other interned
German ships in the Havana harbor.
All were sent to Cabanas fortress.

Stops Itching Scalp.

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff-that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair
of its luster, its strength and its very
life; eventually producing a feverish-

If not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die-then the

save your hair.
Get a 20 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any store, and after
the first application your hair will
take on that life, luster and luxuriance
which is so beautiful. 1t will become
wavy and fluffy and have the appear
