Naughty Harry Fed
the Fishes.

EDT1ME was not a vry lively hour, Jack and Evelyn knew that If
r j quiet as he began:
The Jones children had W. beautiful pets. They were carp.
These two fishes lived in a big glass bowl filed with water. The bowl was
placed on q little table in the bay window OF the dining room where every
who passed might see them.
They were vey beautiful fishes bright red, with scales that eNstened
like silver and fms and tails IS light as gossames.
Each little carp had round black ayes and a funny mouth that turned
down at the corners. When the fishes opened their mouths, as they often
did, the mouths looked like tiny trapdoora
Fishes have gs, little openings at the sides of the head, and the We
or they gup in is passed back into their Threats and out Of the gs. This is
the fishes way Of breathing

zone day Mrs. Jones al away from home, and Harry had a young friend
in to spend the afternoon, for there happened to b. n school.
And what do you feed themF asked the friend.
"Oh, fish food and things like that! Harry answered.
"Must be hungry now. See how they open their mouths the visitor re-
marked.
Harry did not like any he TO think his pets were not well cared for. His
mother fed the fishes regularly. He said, Well, 1 think they've been fed, but
I'll just show you how they eat
THE names Of. the fishes were Rose and Silver. These names were given
them OF account of their looks. Rose a a bright pink, while Silver was
paher, and his scales gHstened more brightly in the sunlight.
"Snver vas always hungry or seemed to be- Mrs. Jones said that Silver
was greedy
Harry threw ma o the fish food into the water, and both fishes made
a dash for it Silver got it, and in their interest in watching the fish Eat the
boy fed them the remainder o the package of food.
"of course Silver was ILL., For severald days he lay N the bottom of the
bowl looking pale and unhappy. Rose did her BEST to comfort him., trying to

COUNTY EXPENDITURES.

The care Of the county roads Is
becoming one of the most serious
The passage of the auto reciprocity
bill and its becoming a law by the
signature of the governor, not only
Of license from visiting autoists, but
also invites an increase in the mum
Der Of machines to use the highways
Of the state. This means an addi-
tional wear and tear and the tax
payers of New Jersey must foot the
bill.
At the present time the building
of new roads and repairing old ones
is the greatest item in the county
budget. AS this increases from year
to year the people must either fore
90 any other Improvements In the
county, or else be subjected to q
greatly Increased county tax. But
as the tax rate is already as high
rs the average citizen cares to
stand, the problem is a serious one.
While we all desire to have i'm
proved roads we do not believe that
advancement along other lines
should be neglected. In fact, some
of this advancement cannot be ig-
nored as the legislature which is
about to close its session, passed q
law making 1t compulsory for every
county to erect a tuberculosis hos
pital. This is a very commendable
movement and is something that
should be done. Besides this, the
legislature has made it compulsory
upon the various counties to appoint
q mosquito commission and to APP
propriate money for the eXtermina-
ton of that pest. This is another
good movement and should be car
1ried out to the letter. The fact re-
mains, however, that all these things
cost money. In Middlesex county
we have just finished a handsome
new county building and az the
county grows other expenses viii In
crease proportionately.
In the meantime our roads are

SAGE TEA WILL
DARkEN THE HAIR
Restore Faded and Gray Hair TO
Natural CoIor-D a II d T. II #
Quickly Removed.

There is nothing new about the
idea of using Sage for restoring the
color of the hair. Our grandmothers
kept their hair dark, glossy and
abundant by the use Of a simple
Sage Tea" Whenever their hair
fell out or took on a dull, faded or
streaked appearance, they made a
brew of Sage leaves, and applied it
to their hair with wonderful benif1-
cial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort
to the old-time tiresome method of
gathering the herbs and making the
tea. This is done by skilful chem
lists better than we could do it our
selves; and all we have to do Is to
call for the ready-made product,
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, containing Sage in the
proper strength, with the addition
of Sulphur, another old-time scalp
remedy.
This preparation gives youthful
color and beauty to the hair, and is
one of the best remedies you can
use for dandruff, dry, feverish, itch
ing scalp, and falling hair. Get a
fifty cent bottle from your druggist
today, and you will be surprised at
the quick results. All druggists sell
1t under guarantee that the money
will be refunded if the remedy is
not exactly as represented.

FOR A ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

For ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS --
It is gratifying to know that Act
ing Mayor Garretson Is in accord
with the EVENING NEWS on the
safe and sane Fourth of July idea.
Following the reminder In these col
umns on Monday, the acting mayor
announces that he will shortly take
steps to prepare for a celebration in
this city similar to those that have
taken place during the last two or
three years.
Perth Amboy is proud of the fact
that she was the first in the state
to observe the Fourth in this man
ner, and there is no indication that
the city will take a step backward.
AS was pointed out in our previous
suggestion, the playground will
doubtless have an important part in
the days events.
The acting mayor ought to have
the hearty support of the entire city
In his efforts. There is a great deal
Of work connected with such cele-
brations as We had under Mayor
Bollschweiler and the citizens ON
mittee has worked hard and long for
its success.
The men who give their time and
money in order that the day may be
properly observed are deserving of
the greatest praise and While 1t is
certain that everybody cannot be
pleased, all should at least render
what assistance they can by remain
Ing silent if they cannot praise.

PEOPLE ARE PROGRESSING.

Former President Roosevelt's
great victory at the Illinois primary
this week has sent his stock oar
ing. While 1t is true he has not yet
sufficient votes to win the nomina-
tino, nevertheless it is very plain
that the principles for which he Is
fighting are supported by the great
majority of the people, particularly
in the middle west. With North
Dakota and Wisconsin pledged to
La Toilette, who is a pioneer Pro-
gressive, and with Illinois lined up
whit Roosevelt, who is equally pro-
gressive in his policies, it cannot be
doubted that Taft stand little
chance of winning at the election,
should he, by the power of federal
patronage, succeed in gaining the
nomination. The lesson of the mid
die west VIII doubtless have a great
effect on the fight In New Jersey. 1t
is plain that the people do not care
for another four years of Taft.
