GERMANY'S WISE COURSE IS TO PAY The State Department's note calling on Germany to pay $228,036.54 for the sinking of the American sailing ship William P. Frye by the Germany cruiser Prinz Eitel Freidrich is brief and to the point, but expressed in friendly terms. Moreover it doesn't bear the earmarks of being an exorbitant charge. This polite but firm request for reparation is not even accompanied by an "'itemized statement." It simply calls for the payment by the German gov ernment of a fixed amount which is regarded by the American government as a fair basis of adjust ment for the damage done. Of course it is Germany's right to call for more specific information if she feels that she is being gouged that it is necessary, and there is no doubt Uncle Sam would provide that information, but as suming that Germany is satisfied that Uncle Sam is not trying to get more than the American ship owner is entitled to, the best thing Germany can do is to pay the bill and close the incident on the very reasonable basis proposed. There seems to be little doubt that the commander of the Eitel was in error when he ordered the Frye sunk. The Frye was an American ship carrying food to a foe of Germany. If Germany justifies the action of the Eitel's commander in sinking the American vessel presumably it would be hard for Germany to explain Germany's objections to Brit ish interference with neutral ships carrying food stuffs to Germany. Germany can settle the Frye incident with dignity and honor by paying the not excessive charge of United States government, and thus not only avoid the danger of a dispute with this nation but also avoid weakening Germany's position in the inter national controversy regarding the British attitude toward neutral shipping. PLANNING TO SAVE DAYLIGHT The "daylight saving" idea which had been agi tated in England, Canada and the United States not so very many years ago, but had been aban doned because of evident impracticability, has again been brought into prominence. The probable adop tion of the scheme in Germany has been announced. Of course it is the war that is responsible for the revival of the plan at this time. Germany's purpose in adopting the untried scheme would be to economize in the use of fuel. If all the clocks in the empire were to be put for ward an hour during the summer months, all the stores, shops and factories would start their daily activities an hour earlier than at present and of course would close an hour sooner, thus giving the workers sixty minutes of daylight for their even ing recreations in substitution for as many min utes of darkness. There is really but one reason why in Germany, or in this country either, so many workers should sleep through the precious early morning daylight and be awake long into the darkness of the night. That reason is the persistence of modern men in relying so completely on clock and watch dials in arranging their every activity. Before time was measured as it is now, human beings were awak ened by the rising sun and became sleepy at evening twilight. This condition still exists of course in rural districts where standard time is not taken too j seriously, and where seven a. m. in summer is not considered the same as seven a. m. in winter just because the hands of clocks and watches happen to be in the relative positions. In cities, of course, the wheels of industry could HARRTSBUPG STAR-INDEPENDENT, TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 6, 1915. not run smoothly if it wer* not for the regularly rotating wheels of clocks and watches. Standard time is indispensible in busy communities, even if it does prevent the earlier use of daylight at this season of the year. The putting forward of the clocks would remedy matters theoretically, but it would surely confuse beyond control all such sys tems as those of the railroads, which are dependent upon carefully followed schedules. In Germany at present the country is In a state of more or less disorder and the clock might be put forward in that country with comparatively little added confusion to industries. One objection that might reasonably be raised, however, to the adop tion of the "daylight-saving" plan in Germany is that the idea is that of an inventive Englishman, whose country would no doubt feel highly honored by such a recognition of British ingenuity. WHEN SENSE OF SMELL GOES WRONG There is a man in the county jail in Spokane, Wash., who is to be pitied. Ilis lot is not a remark ably hard one merely by reason of the fact that he is confined in a cell, for that is the common lot of very many luckless mortals. His particularly re markably misfortune is a disorder of his olfactory nerves which causes everything he comes in contact to "smell like grease." Consider for a moment what must be the feeling of a man who lifts to his nostrils a beautiful rose which gives out perfumes of axle grease, or who raises to his mouth a delicious morsel of food which smells like unto lard. There would hardly be much joy in life for such a one. Little wonder that the Spokane man has pleasant visions of himself dang ling at the end of a rope, and that the county authorities must use force to prevent him from tak ing his life. If a man is color blind he still can live happily by keeping his mistakes to himself, and if his hear ing is defective he can merely refrain from answer ing questions and thus prevent blundering; but if something goes wrong with his sense of smell, so that even his food is repulsive, he may, perhaps, be condoned for harboring suicidal designs. It looks as though the Eitel "darsen't." Let's put the Kaiser and King-George in a 19-foot ring and decide the thing in t 26 rounds. There are hints from Europe that the Turks and Austri ans are not so enthusiastic about "sticking it out" as are the loyal subjects of the Kaiser. Prance claims to have found a way to double the ex plosive effect of the shells of the three-inch guns. Next move is up to Germany's inventive genius. Judging from the way the German government ousted Gilford Pinchot from Belgium the Bull Moose sentiment is not very strong in the territory over which Wilhelm holds sway. TOLD IN LIGHTER VEIN SOMETHING OF A SHOCK Jones kept a grocery store in a Western town. One after noon a friend rambled into the grocery emporium and found the proprietor in an agitated state of mind. "What's the matter, old man?" greeted the friend, seat ing himself on an empty box. "You look as if you might be somewhat disturbed." "I am," admitted the proprietor, with something akin to a soulful sigh. "The inspector of weights and measures has just been here." "I seel I see!" gleefully laughed the friend. "Caught you giving 15 ounces for a pound, did he!" "Worse than that, Bill," responded the proprietor, with another prolonged sigh. "He said 1 had been giving 17." —Exchange. OLD FRIENDS While visiting the Berlin Zoological Gardens, little Gretchen saw a great white bircf standing on one leg in a cage. She threw in a piece of candy; the bird gobblod it up eagerly, and thrust its head through the wire for more. Presently Gretchen's mother came along. "Oh, mother, see here! What kind of a bird is this?" The mother pointed to the sign on the sage, which read "The Stork." "The story,' cried the little girl, enthusiastically. "Oh, mamma, do you know he actually recognized me."—Lustige Blaetter. ENTITLED TO TALK In the audience was a man who insisted on talking aloud to the annoyance of those about him. "Look here, young man," exclaimed a citizen shaking a finger in the direction of the offender, "don't you know that you are annoying everybody in the house? Can't you stop talking and let us enjoy the lecture!" "Oh, I don't know," was the cool response. "I paid for my ticket, and I don't know why I'm not entitled to all the privileges." "Let him talk, mister," suddenly interposed a small boy. "He works in a deaf and dumb asylum, and this is his night off."—Exchange. VERY ABSENT-MINDED On coming down to breakfast one morning a very learned .professor in the West saw a beautiful bouquet of roses standing on the table beside his plate. Instantly he took up the flowers with an expression of great delight. "My dear Maria," he remarked, turning to his wife, "you don t know how pleased I am to receive this beautiful bouquet, but why have you given it to me?" "Don't you remember, Henry?" smiled the happy wife. "Isn't this the anniversary of our marriage?" "Why, so it is, Maria, dear! Why, so it is!" exclaimed the absent-minded professor, burying his face in the flowers. "Kindly let me know when yours comes around and I will gladly reciprocate the favor."—Exchange. A NOYES STORY This story ought to be told before it gets any older. It may be remembered that the young English poet, Alfred Noyes, visited Cleveland several months ago. Many learned Clevelandere were invited to meet him, and in this crowd there was a college professor—a man who is already past I middle age and who looks upon poetry as frivolous, science as the play of children and art as a curious phenomenon in evolution. MT. Noyes saM to him, gently: "I am very glad to make your acquaintance, Professor Dash. What do you do for a living?" "I hold the chair, sir," answered the professor, grandly, "of logic and metaphysics at Blank university." "Indeed!" exclaimed the poet, with an indulgent and re assuring smile. "Logie and metaphysics. You don't mean it? Well, well—l suppose we have to have people to look after these things, even if they don't really exist!" Exchange. ENRICH TIE BLOOD Hood's Sarmaparilla, a Spring Tonic- Medicine, la Necessary Everybody is troubled at this sea son with loss of vitality, failure of appetite, that tired feeling, or with bilious turns, dull headaches, indiges tion and other stomach troubles, or with pimples and other eruptions on the face and body. The reason is that the blood is impure and impoverished. _ Hood's Sarsaparilla relieves all these ailments. It is the old reliable medicine that has stood the test of forty years,— that makes pure, rich, red blood-—that strengthens every organ and builds up the whole system. It is the all-the year-round blood-purifier and health giver. Nothing else acts like it, for nothing else is like it. There is no real substitute; so be sure to get Hood's. Ask your druggist for it to-day, and begin taking it at once.—Adv. [Tongue-End Top ics| Plowing With a Locomotive Daily the last ten days the dinkey shifter at the Middletown car plant has been racing up and down a 300-yard stretch of track just as if working automatically or by perpetual motion or—oh, well, just chasiug up and down. It is not doing any shift ing, neither has it gone off that ono track. Some one compared it to the fellow beginning to ride a bicycle. "What's the dinkey doing?" asked a curious person. "It's plowing," replied a bystand er. The contractor grading a triangular strip of 'ground north of the car plant has "hitched' that locomotive to a field plow and the plan works splend idly. Horses draw the plough back to the place of beginning and then a new furrough is started by the locomotive. » * * Got the Eggs Mixed One of Royaltaa 'e "Big Brothers" placed an order with the bunny at a candy shop for chocolate for his "mother and niece, Caroline." Each egg was to cost sl. One was to bear the name "Mother" and the other "Caroline." The order for the eggs was placed with the confectioner early Saturday morning and they were pack aged and ready for delivery to the prospective buyer when he called in tie evening. Off he went with his "Easter Greetings." The names "Mother" and "Caroline" were scrawled on the lids of the respective boxes and the "Big Brother" depend ed upon those marks when he deliver ed them. The niece at once opened the box. The "Big Brother" was much disappointed when advised that the egg intended for the child bore the name "Mother." Of course the little girl was ready to exchange with moth er, but when the box containing moth er's Easter remembrance was opened it was found that the egg wus marked "William.'' At a late hour last night the confectioner hadn't returned from his trip to the shore. • . * Chink's Idea of Big Fair A good ma.ny Harrisburgers are now planning to go to the big Pana ma-Pacific Exposition at San Francis co.

Horace McFarland, vice president of the Pennsylvania Conservation As sociation and president of the Ameri can Civic Association has prepared an illustrated address entitled "Sen Pennsylvania First," which he will deliver before the Engineers' Society of Pennsylvania 011 Friday evening, April 16, at the society's house, '3l South Front street. The lecture is intended to show a few of the more than fifty-seven va rieties of scenery easily available in the Keystone State, and incidentally to call attention to the yet unchecked desecration of scenery which in other parte of the world is held to bo an important economic asset by reason of the income derived from its display and exploiting. Mr. McFarland takes his hearers 011 a rather jumpy trip from the north east corner of the State, also on the Delaware to the water courses near Philadelphia, thence up the Schuylkill and to tho valley of the Susquehan.na. He shows not only the natural wild beauties of the State, but the beauties created by the agricultural use of the soil. The Cumberland Valley is visit ed, and there is a trip up the Juniata and across the mountains, touching very lightly upon the northwestern corner of the State. Two great regions are carefully visited, one including a superb natural park which ought to be a State park, and the other the famed Eagles Mere vicinity, which Mr. McFarland insists presents a nepitome of all the finest scenery of the United States. There are something more than a hundred perfectly colored slides which will be shown including many from tho Pennsylvania State museum, which at Mr. McFarland's suggestion has de veloped the idea of making Pennsyl vanians acquainted with Pennsylva nia.

A Sure Way To 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), apply It at night when retiring: use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, anil three or four niero applications will completely dis solve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, 110 matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and l'eel a hundred times better.—Adv. DR. JOHN F.
