the family skeleton, whatever 1t may
be, can be kept safely in the closet
is for the heroine to marry the un-
loved man. The rest of the story Is
that the unloved man either dies at
just the right minute, or else he wins
the affections of his unloving wife.
The other reason for contracting
the unwelcome marriage is a high
sense of honor in the girl which
which prompts her to keep her
plighted word at any cost to her
self
Starting out with either premise
the fiction writer can build up long
novel. 1t has been done very, very
frequently. The long arm of coinci-
dence can be used to jerk lot OF
events into place, and wind them ur
neatly. And there's your happy end
ing. A fiction heroine would be fool
ish not to go on following the good
old pattern, because, no matter what
she does, things will always turn out
so pleasantly for her.
But life is different and more eX-
citing. One never knows just what
may happen next. From the stand
point of fiction, the fiction heroine
is all right; but from the standpoint
of life, she has always struck me as
not only featherheaded, but uncom.
monty vain.
For instance, when the family
unite in trying to force her to marry
the unloved man it would be so much
more sensible for her to say:
You got yourself into these diff.
ficulties, and it's high time yoU
used your wits and your energies il
getting yourself out, instead of offer
ing me up as a sacrifice. | am quite
willing to work and to do all that
can to help in the present emergency
but l am distinctly not for sale"
But the fiction heroine never
dreams of doing that. She is toe
featherheaded.
And she is vain in this, that she
imagines that her grudging and un-
responsive presence is a sufficien
return for a mans lifelong devotion
and perpetual maintenance of her.
AS a matter of fact, the human

U-Boats Let Loose -..,

Christinnia, Norway, May !21.-Ger-
man submarines again have started
unrestricted warfare on Norwegian
fishing boats in the Arctic ocean
north and east of the Norwegian
coast. Fishermen saved from sunk
en- vessels and landed at Hammerfest
report that the commander of u
boat stated that all vessels met by
him would be sunk. Norwegian
ships especially would be destroyed,
because, he said, the Norwegians
were sending fish and seal oil to
England. This, however, is untrue,
as the export of oils is forbidden and
Germany knows 1t.
The U-boats are said to shell ves-
sells without warning and. according

A Sure Way 70
End Dandruff

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), ap-
ply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
II in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and three
or four more applications will COM
pletely 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 dig
sing of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel hundred times better.

BADLY PUNISHED GERMANS
MAKE NO FURTHER ATTACKS s
Desperate Smashes by Won Arnim 8
Army Monday Resulted Only in
Piling UP German Dead
Around KENNEL

With the British Army in France
April 3O.-Up to noon today the badly
punished German troops along the
Flanders front had made no further
attacks against the Allied lines which
held so brilliantly throughout yester-
days intense fighting.
The desperate smashes of Won Ar
MINIS army against the Allied lines on
the Flanders battlefield yesterday af-
ternoon and evening met with no more
success than the eneniy's futile and
costly attempts early in the day to
break through and capture the hill
positions west of KENNEL.
Not only did the British and French
maintain their positions of virtually
all parts in the face of furious on
slaughts, but during the night they
reclaimed several bits Of territory on
which the enemy had succeeded in get
ting a hold.
Locre had again fallen into German
hands late yesterday, but the French
once more made Gasning counter
drive and thrust the enemy out of this
important place. y
The Allied lines in Flanders this
morning were to all intents the SAME
as when the Germans surged forward
yesterday, and in front of the depend
ing positions gray uniformed men lay
in great numbers.
Mort hof KENNEL the British and
so pushed forward somewhat during
the night and bettered their positions.
At one time yesterday the Germans
actually had some men on the lower
slopes of both Mont Rouge and the
Scherpenberg, after they succeeded in
driving small wedge into the French
line between these two elevations.
Fierce fighting continued about
Locre all day and the enemy sacri-
flced gerat numbers of men in an at
tempt to push through here.
In the meantime th- flanks were
holding brilliantly against successive
shocks. A particularly bitter battle
was waged astride the Kemmel-I.a
Clytte highway, near the junction of
the French and British Here the en-
emy tried his favoritc trick of divid-
ing the two forces, but he found no
weak spots.
At Ridgewood, west of Voormezcelc,
heavy fighting also continued
throughout the day, the Germans los
ing great numbers of men, both killed
and wounded. 1t is impossible to say
how many attacks the enemy made at
this point during the course of the
day.
The German artillery which had
been greatly augmented for this at
tack. pounded the back areas inces-
sanity, and the duel between the op-
posing guns of all calibers from Sat
urday evening until last night was ap-
palling.
The, British improved their position
slightly before Villers- -Bretonneux.
