AGE LIMIT LOW IN o. S.
Children AIIowedsto Work at Night
Earlier Than in Europe.

Children are permitted to work at night
in the United States at ages much
younger than those specified as the night
work limit by foreign countries, accord
ing to a report issued by the Bureau Of
Labor yesterday on the findings Of the
international Labor Once, which recently
met in Berne, Switzerland, to advocate
the adoption of an international treaty
regulating such working hours.
The report says that seventeen and
eighteen years are the ages fixed by most
European countries as the youngest at
which children may be permitted to work
at night In some of the States in this
country, however, age limits are around
fifteen and sixteen. In Florida children
twelve years old may work at night. In
California and Massachusetts, the limit Is
twenty-one years.

GROGAN'S

For many years this house
has given a great deal of
thought to the problem of
enabling young people to be-
gin married life with all the
necessary home furnishings
of a class which will mean
comfort and happiness.
Our plan of selling to them
has been so arranged that
they may buy good qualities
at once-qualities which will
not need replacing for years
to come.
We have found that those
who take pride in their home
surroundings are deserving
of trust, and we make it pos
sible for them to afford, right
now, just such things as they
are hoping to be able to buy
later on"
Do not invest in cheap"
furniture for a beginning.
Come to us and see how
much we can help you in
having what you want.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound.
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get large bottle of this famous
old recipe for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair. as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with 1t and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your. hair becomes
beautifully dark. thick and glossy. Adv.

The boys. according to the juvenile

dows of small old-fashioned ,panes OF
glass and leaden roof, which sur.
mounted the building, remained in the
same simple state in which 1t had been
left by Sir Isaac. 1t was priced by
Burney, kept in repair, and shown to
his friends with enthusiasm. For
Fanny Burney it was my favorite sit
ting-place, where ! can retire to read
or write any of my private fancies or
yagaries." In Burney's day Newton
house was the rendezvous of literary,
musical and artistic coterie. Garrick
was a welcome visitor, and Sir Joshua
Reynolds was wont TO come round
from his house hard by in Leicester
Fields. Doctor Johnson was a caller.

are extant In the European Magazine

Meredith, with the title, The Hotel in

PROPER CARE OF
SWEET POTATOES
Unlike Other Vegetables, Tubers
Should Be Stored in a Warm
and Dry Place.
tBy L. NJ. BENNINGToN)

Sweet potatoes need to be handled
carefully II they are to be kept
through the winter and unlike most
other Vegetables, sweet potatoes should
be kept In warm, dry place.
In the first place sweet potatoes
must be dug at the right time. They
should be dug before the hard frosts
have killed the tops, for this Injuries
the quality OF the tubers somewhat.
After digging, the potatoes must be
handled as carefully as though they
we're eggs. Irish potatoes can be shov-
eled around rather carelessly, and oft
en- bruise in one of the potatoes, or
even a decayed spot, will not affect
the other part which is left in sound
condition.
But not so with the sweet potato,
for bruise at one end will affect the
quality of the sound part at the other
end and will render it unfit for use.
This fact is not generally understood
by many growers who handle sweet
potatoes as carelessly as they do Irish
potatoes
This fact Is responsible for many OF
the potatoes OF poor quality which are
served during the winter.
After being handled. the sweet po-
tatoes should be stored in a warm,
dry place. A temperature OF 60 to 70
degrees is about right for the proper
keeping of sweet potatoes
Some persons have stored them in
the sand, or dust from the country
road to help preserve an even tenn.
perature.
II the potatoes are stored in sand or
dust, care must be taken that the sand
is perfectly dry.
Handled carefully, sweet potatoes
can be kept for some months and will
be found OF good quality late in thu
winter.
