tional discussion Of Russia. 1t 1.
reminiscent both in its prinptness and
its character of the first notes which
President Wilson sent in 1913 replying
to the German request for an nrmisticc.
The way is left open for commits
sion on Russia similar to the financial
commission whose meeting J. l.. Nor
gan Is attending and which will dis :
cnss tho question OF loan to Ger
many.
The summarized invitation received
through Ambassador Child was vague
and unsatisfactory. 1t did create tho
impression that the promoters Of the
Genoa Conference in order to save their
fnces and not have to report back 20
their own Governments a failure, had
virtually proposed adjourning tho
Genoa meeting to The Hague. Such IN
adjourned meeting would inevitably be
political rather than economic.
Object TO Basis Of Conference
Another element in the, proposal tc
the making Of the Russian reply to the
allied note the basis of the new con-
ference.
The Administration views Is that Rus
sin actually has gone long way toward
meeting the conditions Mid down by
Mr.. Hughes in his various notes with
regard to the safety of property, but
that it has not gone far enough.
Even the allied proposals to which
this Russian memorandum of May IL is
n reply did not meet the full approval
of the American Government and the
Russian memorandum which it is pro-
posed to make the basis of The Hague
discussion is not as satisfactory as the
allied proposals.
One may take the Genoa conference
as the beginning rather than the end
of negotiations which will lead to !.
resumption of dealings between the civ.
ilizcd world and Russia. and the reply
of the Administration to the allied in
vitation as the beginning rather than
the end of n movement for the estab.
lishmcnt of some basis upon which an
interna, ional agreement with regard TO
Russia will be possible.
Russia Partly Successful
Al Genoa the Russian tactics were to
divide the other nations in their attitude
regarding herself. specifically to sep
arate England and France. These tar-
ties were only half successful. Unless
Russia now secures separate rccog-
milton from England they will have
failed for all practical purposes.
The likelihood of disuniOn and the
desire to avoid it are SO great that
movements like this proposed Hague
meeting or the still more limited con-
ference suggested in the American reply
are inevitable. To any united policy re-
garding Russia the United States is
essential and this latest note Of Mr..
Hughes will probably lead to modified
proposals.

the scalp and soon you see the lost color re-
turning to give your hair its former luxuriance
and beauty. And. surprising as 1t may seem,
this preparation is not sticky, greasy or messy.
and It will not stain the skin. II is as agree

A Marvellous Relief for
Dandruff, Itching Scalp
and Falling Hair

Thousands have found that Kolor.Bak works
wonders in the most persistent cases Of dan.
druff. itching scalp and falling hair. 1t quickly
cleans the pores Of the scaly matter which Inn.
pedes circulation and evidently destroys the
germs which feed upon the nourishing matter
which should be absorbed by the cells and
follicles. Thus 1t helps to keep the hair from
becoming brittle or falling out. BY removing
the cause Of the trouble, 1t brings the scalp
and hair to a normal condition. The dandruff
goes, the itching ceases and the hair grows
thick and glossy. healthy and strong.
Kolor. Bak gives a COOL refreshing sensation
to the scalp-it not only makes 1t clean, 1t
makes 1t feel clean. 1t has no sickness or
greasiness. No nitrate OF silver, no mercury,
no coal tar, no henna or sage tea. no wood

Kolor-Bak is actually scalp and hair tonic
because Of It's cleansing, stimulating qualities

You will find also that Koior-Bak brings per.

uniformity in the restored color is quite as i'm.
portant as getting rid Of your grayness. When

want to feel that 1t is beyond detection. And
wash and clean your hair as often as you WISH
the restored color will not be changed-you will
appear as II you had never been gray
You not only have this uniformity but you
see your hair come back to the actual shade It
