a wounded eagle chased a farmer
of Dover, N. j., who was out taking
a walk the other evening. He heard a
queer sort cf fluttering behind him,
but thought it was some new-fangled
kind of automobile. The futtering
was followed by screech more rauc-
GUS than that of the latest auto horn.
The farmer jumped and turned to
'cuss out" the speeder. He looked
around and saw bald eagle. He ran,
the eagle following and gaining fast
until it finally fell helpess to the
ground. 1t had received gunshot
wound. The farmer took the bird

UNRAVEL ROAD LEGISLATION
Joint Committee Working to Bring
About Simplicity, Efficiency and
Uniformity Of Laws.

To bring about revision OF state
road laws along lines that will insure
simplicity, efficient management, ana
where desirable, uniformity, Is the
task undertaken by a special joint
committee appointed at the tnlro
American road congress and repre-
senting the American Bar association
and the American Highway associa-
ton. The magnitude, intricacy ana
political and technical difficulties OF
the undertaking are discussed In an
article prepared for the Engineering
Record by ]. e. Pennybacker, chleI
of the division of road economics OF
the United States Office Of public roads,
Between three and four million
words comprise existing road leglsla-
ton in the several states, according TO
the estimate of officials In the office OF
public roads. This great wilderness
of words would make up an edition OF
30 fair-sized volumes. In view OF the
comparative simplicity Of the SUD
ject, this vast accumulation OF sCat-
utes, according to Mr.. Pennybacker' is
scathing commentary on the con-
structive craftsmanship OF our legls-
lators for many generations. There is
scarcely a doubt that at least 20 per
cent of the legislation is supernuous'
and that, entirely aside from the mat
ter of reform, exactly the same pur-
poses contemplated in the existing leg
islation could be accomplished with
greater effectiveness with one-eighth
of the existing statute laws.
The compilers have found legisia-
ton still in effect almost Identical as
to form and substance with the oio
colonial road laws, which were In turn
based upon English precedent, extend
ing back to the time Of Queen Enza'
beth; they have found statutes 80
hopelessly in conflict as to make en-
cient and responsible administrator
utterly impossible. AS an example Oh
the bewildering confusion Of exisung
legislation, the compilers came across
in the statutes Of one Of our most pro
gressive states q recent enactment

"And think of the good I'm doing
to other people, tool" he added. How
grateful the public will be to me for
pointing out the way to their own re-

"Why, I shouldn't wonder II there

And 1t was just one-fifteen, as he
stood rubbing his hands at the pros
pect Of eating alone on Christmas for
the first time in his life-when the
doorbell rang.
"Doggone it," burst out Mr.. Simp-
son. whats that?"
For a moment he decided not to
open the door. Then he changed his
mind and went downstairs, two at
time. 1t might be some bad news
from his absent family.
He threw open the portal-and stag
gered back into the hall.
And after him trooped a gayly
shouting and Laughing party of sixteen
Mr.. Simpsons relatives!

Mr.. Simpson looked over the crowd
still streaming into his front hall. His

to the dining room.

ECZEMA ITCHED AND BURNED

r. F.. D. No. 8, Maryville, Tenn
my baby, when three months old,
took eczema on his face and head.
His head and one side Of his face
were almost in a solid sore. The &C.
zema at first was kind of a rash and
then it broke out in water pimples
and they would burst and looked very
badly. It would itch and burn so bad
ly that he could not rest at all and
his hair just all fell out at once till
his head was perfectly bald. He could
not sleep at night and was very cross.
II tried remedies without any relief
at all; he only got worse all the time
until / used Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment. He had great relief the first
application. He was soon cured and
his hair began to grow back and now
he has just beautiful fine hair and
has no sign of eczema" (Signed)

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's
Recipe Of Sage and Sulphur
and Nobody Will Know.

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 ia
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for ''Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about SO cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe. be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
SO naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.
