Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence OF 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-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die-then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
tonight-now-any time-will surely
save your hair.
Get a % 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

GERMANY MUST FORCE ISSUE
President and Cabinet Decide Ameri-
ca Will Not Declare War.

Washington-The fateful next
step" in the controversy between the
United States and Germany will not
be a declaration OF war. This decision
was reached at a meeting of President
Wilson and his cabinet, when the deli
cate international situation confront
ing the country was reviewed. The
following course was decided upon.
When the president is satisfied that
American lives and American ships"
have been destroyed on the high seas
in violation of the submarine pledges
formerly made by Germany, he will
lay the matter before congress.
He will not suggest declaration OF
war. but will ask authority to use the
military and naval forces for the pro-
lection of the lives and rights of Am
orleans at sea.
He will proceed to use the military
and naval forces for this purpose,
leaving the next move to Germany.
This will result in a state of war;"
but leave the actual declaration to
Berlin.
1t was stated unequivocally the presi-
dent is determined that responsibility
for a physical clash between the two
nations must rest with Germany and
that the United States shall under no
circumstances force the issue. This
determination is in line with the ear
nest endeavors of the administration
to prevent any act which could be
construed as an offense or affront to
Germany in the present diplomatic
break.
Carrying out this determination, the
president viii see to it that no move
offending the honor of the nation or
transgressing the right OF its citizens
shall go unpublished.

COMPULSORY SERVICE BILL
All Youths in Nineteenth Year Would
Have to Train Six Months.

Washington-The senate military
committee reported iavorably a bill
Trainer by a subcommittee creating a
military and naval citizen reserve
force based on universal military
training and service.
While the committee report does got
indicate a belief that congress will
act on the measure at this session,
the bill brings TO a definite head the
universal service discussion of the
last few months and offers a specific
plan on which public sentiment can
crystalline
The bill requires six months train
ing without pay for all youths in their
nineteenth year. Exemptions are
granted the members of the regular
army and navy, those physically unfit,
those who are the sole support of de-
pendent relatives and those affiliated
with religious sects whose creeds for
bid them to bear arms. Those of the
latter class, however, are subject to
training in the non-combatant branch
es of the army.
1t is estimated the bill would pro-
vide for the training of 100000 boys
annually, each Of whom would be fur
Laughed into a reserve for nine years
after his training period. With al
lowances for shrinkage of classes, due
to various causes as the years pass,
this plan would give total force Of
3,165, 900 men, who had had six
months training, at the end of the first
nine-year-cycle, all being subject to
call for service only in the event Of
a defensive" war or the imminence
thereof.

PLOT TO BLOW UP AQUEDUCT
Two Attempts Made 10 Cut of New

which supplies New York city with
water, at places just outside Pleasant
vile, in Westchester county, one 4
short time before midnight Saturday
and the other early Sunday morning.
The second attempt was frustrated
by a soldier who fired two shots at
the plotters as they escaped in a high
powered automobile, after he had dis
covered them dragging a heavy suit

forms the approach to a small meter

FIFTEEN PERSONS
DIE IN HOTEL FIRE
TRAPPED ON TOP FLOOR OF
BUILDING VICTIMS WERE EN-
VELOPED IN FLAMES.
DOZEN OTHERS ARE INJURED
One Group Of Five Persons Refused
to Jump and Die When Window
Ledge Gives Way.

Minneapolis, Minn.-Fifteen persons
were burned to death Monday morn
ing in a fire which destroyed the Ken
wood hotel, three-story family board
ing house.
The fire, which apparently broke
out in the basement OF the hotel, shot
up the front and back stairways. The
victims were trapped on the top floor
of the building and were enveloped in
the flames.
Dozens of OF guests crowded at the
windows on the second and third
floors. Many leaped, while others
were pushed from the window stills by
those behind.
About dozen injured persons were
taken to hospitals and others were
cared for in private homes. Several
of the injured will die.
A group Of five persons refused to
jump into a net from the second floor
and suddenly the ledge on which they
were standing gave way, throwing
them back into the flames.
The police were unable to hold the
crowd in check and indescribable con-
fusion gave the firemen difficulty in
fighting the blaze.

Bockache

In spite of the best care one takes
of oneself, any part of the human machine
is liable to become out of order. The
most important organs are the stomach,
n 1T and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating the
poisons from the blood. Their signals Of
distress are easily recognized and IT,
clnde such symptoms as backache. de-
pressions, drowsiness irritablity, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy, govt.
"The very best way to restore tho
kidneys to their normal state of health, "

drink plenty of pure water and obtain
from your favorite pharmacy a small
amount of Anuric, which is dispensed by
almost every druggist" Anuric is mex

You will find Anuric more potent than

BILIOUS, HEADACHY,
SICK 'CASCARETS'
Gently cleanse your liver and
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get a 1O.cent box.

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi-
ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul
breath-always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con-
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep-a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months. Adv
