WHY SOCIETY WOMEN WASH
THEIR OWN HAIR.

They do, not because it is a fad, but
because they wish to obtain the great
est possible hair beauty and be sure
tney are not using anything harmful.
They have found that in washing the
hair it Is never wise to use a make
snift, but is always advisable TO use a
preparation made for shampooing only.
Many OF our friends say they get the
pest results from a simple homemade

This was the plain comment made by
one of the few Berlin political leaders
not in attendance on the national as
sembly at Weimar the moment he
heard of the attempted destruction OF
the German fleet in Scapa flow.
One gained the impression he places
credence in the rumors the old militia
rists of Prussia are preparing to defy
both the German government and the
allies after peace is signed. linden
burg, commanding in the east, who has
sent protest to Weimar against ac-
cepting the present terms, might be
considered as possible leader of
Prussia if that state declares its inde-
pendence of the rest of Germany.
Weimar.-Before the national as
sembly voted to sign the peace terms
Internationally, fiery appeals in op-
position were made by the Democrats
and Conservatives, but they apparent
ly had little effect When the vote
was called all but few members
arose to signify their affirmation of
the governments decision to sign.
Many wild rumors of what would
happen when it became known the
assembly had voted almost unanimous
ly to accept the terms gained currency.
One that appeared to get most support
was that all the officers of the Ger
man army would resign if the govern
ment did not refuse to surrender Ger
man leaders, especially Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg and General Luden-
dorff, and defy the allies to seize the
former emperor.
In military and semi-military cir
cles strong insistence has developed
that the former emperor is innocent
and that under no circumstances must
he be placed on trial except in neu-
trail court.
In some quarters the threat Of the
officers to resign was taken most seri-
ously on the ground that such action
might pave the way for Spartacan
and Communist uprising throughout
the country
London.-News of the German gov
ernment's agreement to sign the peace
terms resulted in patriotic demonstra-
tions throughout Germany.
In Berlin, Munich and other large
cities, the dispatch says, professions
formed and marched along the prin
cipal streets, the participants singing
war songs and cheering the generals
of the old empire.
The Officers Association, it is add
ed, has asked the Dutch government
not to deliver the former German EN-
peror to the allies. In a telegram, of

Members of the mission appeared in gorgeous costumes of red velvet deco rated in gold and wore jeweled tur- bans. They presented a number of gifts to the president, including tusks of ivory gold boxes and letters from the Abyssinian queen and heir appar- ent.
 The head of the mission, Dadja- match NadO, addressed the president in his native language. MT. Wilson replied in part:
 Owing to the great distance by which we are separated and the dift1- culties of travel by land and sea, our mutual relations in the past have not reached great development. However, bonds of close friendship have been established between our governments and I express the earnest hope that these bonds will grow still stronger, resulting in greater commerce and Df more frequent intercourse between Abyssinia and the United States.
