Maximilian Harden Gives
Warning to Germany
Copenhagen, May 1. Maximilian
Harden, thc German "enfant terrible."
publishes In the latest issue of Die
Zukunft another daringly frank ar
ticle exposing to German readers the
"shams, pretenses and mistakes" of
their Government's policy.
The article is devoted to' .the entry
of the United States into the war.
which Ilerr Harden warns the people
must be taken most seriously, both
from the moral side, as a symptom of
the weakness of Germany's appeal to
the neutral world and the failure of
her foreign policy, and because of the
Physical aspects of the weight that
America will ultimately be able to
throw into the scale. In the article be
reviews the steps leading to the Ger
man and American peace proposals,
the proclamation of unrestricted sub
marine war and the American decla
ration of a state of war and declares,
with a daring to which probably no
other German publicist Is equal, that
Germany's peace overtures were put
forward only as a bridge over which
Germany could pass to relentless sub
marine warfare.

For Itching Scalp
—
\ou do not want a slow treatment
for itching scalp when hair is falling
and the dandruff germ is killing the
hair roots. Delay means —no hair.
Get, at any drug store, a bottle of
zemo for 25c or SI.OO for extra large
size. Use as directed, for it does the
work quickly. It kills the dandruff
germ, nourishes thc hair roots and im
mediately stops itching scalp. It is ■
pure, reliable, antiseptic liquid, is not
greasy, is easy to use and will not
stain. Soaps and shampoos are harm
ful, as they contain alkali. The best
thing to use_ for scalp irritations is
zcr ", < ?' is safe and inexpensive.
