Bitterly Attacks Brazilian
Minister For U-Boat Note

Rio Janeiro, Feb. 13.-Deputy Medei-
ros bitterly attacks DIR. Lauro Muller.
the Brazilian foreign secretary, in an
article in A Noite, in connection with
the Brazilian note to Germany, which he
terms terrible deception. According
to Senor Medeiros the praise given the
note in the French press is merely a
manifestation of politeness. The arti-
Gle continues:
Or. Lauro Muller ought not to ig-
more the terrible suspicion which sur
rounds him on account of his origin and
his political interests. The actual note
did not dissipate this nightmare and
now when DIR. Muller discovers in IL
a decisive energy he is only reinforcing
the belief that it is impossible for him
to do anything against Germany.
Abiding to the possible candidacy of
the foreign secretary for the presi-
dency, Senior Medeiros says when
DIR. Muller will have proven that in
spite of the appeals of his ancestry he
can dissipate the suspicion which sur
round him he will have won so great
a victory over himself that nobody will
dare to dispute his right to aspire to
the highest post in the republic. of
which he will be then absolutely wor-
thy. Acts are now Indispensable. not

After referring to the friendly rela-

Keboch, Jackson Agent, Says
Public Is Now Motor Wise

The public now weighs motor car
worth to a greater extent than for
merly because the automobile has now
come to be regarded as staple ar
ticle. like real estate, furniture. ma
chinery and other units involving a
large expenditure, according to p. II.
Keboch, local distributor of the Jack

motor car buyers don't rely on first
hand impressions now" Mr. Keboch
said. They consider the dollar for
dollar value and buy in accordance
with the real worth of the CARTS
durability, economy, and so forth.
THE motor car buyer is also wary
of any car that he has reason to think
may soon become an orphan-that is,
a car that may cease to be manufac-
tured. Such cars for obvious reasons
always decrease in value quickly after
the company which manufactured
them dies"

No criticism can be directed against

with others in this State as regards
work done and aid rendered. But our
great drawback is a lack of members.
Harrisburg has nearly $4,000 people

than 1900. A little while ago we had

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be care
full what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkal. which is very injurious. as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsifled cocoanut oil. for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store.
and n few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich. creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to
handle. Besides. it loosens and takes
out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandruff.

the President would not be rushed
into war, it was plain that all officials
realized that the much featured overt
act might come at any time.
Flat rejection by the United States
of Germany's proposal to discuss inter
national differences without first matt
ing the illegal submarine campaign
left one other suggestion of the Ber-
lin government still pending at the
State Department to-day. That was
to reaffirm the Prussian- American
treaties of 1893 and 1873. relatlns
mainly to treatment of enemy resi-
dents in war times. with number OF
new provisions which apparently
would constitute almost new treaty:
1t seemed quite probable that this
proposal, the same as that submitted
to Ambassador Gerard at Berlin a1ter
he had asked for his passports and
which he declined to consider, Will be
frowned upon also. Both offers were
submitted to the State Department
through the Swiss minister, acting on
behalf of Germany.
To Ask Release of Prisoners
A report probably will be made soon
through the same channel that no
German merchant ships have been
seized in American ports and no Ger
man sailors have been imprisoned
The government then will look for i'm
mediate release of the seventy-two
American sailors captured from Brit
ish ships in the Atlantic by German
raider and now held prisoners in Ger
many. The State Department was
notified yesterday that they were still
held, pending receipt of informatlon
on the German crews of this country.
President Wilson had under consid-
Grafton to-day the question whether
the Navy Department shall furnish
guns to arm American merchant ships,
as it is understood the State Depart
ment has recommended.

its essential purpose, the raising of a
family of children, proves impossible.
In the childless home the married

pointed and lonely. Lacking the best
tie to hold them together they are
likely to drift apart, hence many sep

There is one sure way that
has never failed to remove dandruff
at once, and that is to dissolve it. then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need), apply
1t at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in
genly with the finger tips.
By morning, most If not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
OF the scalp will stop instantly, and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel hundred times better.
