S2,5OO,OOO TO FIGHT
The Cattle PLAGUE

WASHINGTON. Feb. 16.-Twn and
a half million dollars is now available
for fighting the foot and mouth dis
case under the recent urgent dohcien-
cy bin signed by President Wilson on
January 25.
Up TO the first of the year. the cpl
demic had cost the Federal govern
ment S2.139.OO0. OF this sum, 81 .S4O,-
GOO represents the Federal govern
ment's share of the cost of slaughter
ing affected herds and reimbursng the
owners for their loss. of which the
government pays half and the individ-
ual state the remainder. Figures Of
the Agricultural Department show that
exclusive of the work in January, 10l,-
176 animals have been slaughtered.
OF these. 46, PCS were cattle. 47.735
swine, and the remainder sheep and
goats.
The money now at the disposal Of
the Department of Agriculture will, Il
is believed, aid the campaign against
the pestilence by enabling the govern
ment TO make prompt payment to all
owners of infected herds. and thus
minimize the reluctance of farmers TO
have their herds slaughtered. In 1lli-
nois. for example. approximately
$500. OOO is now available for this pur-
pose The loss in that State has been
larger than in any other. $4,000 ami
mails having been slaughtered there.
Pennsylvania comes next with 1900
animals. and Ohio third with 10000.
None of the other sixteen affected
States has lost as many as 5000.

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY Shade
Don't stay Gray. Here's an Old-time
Recipe that anybody can Apply.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded. gray hair to its ma
tural color dates back TO grand
mothers time. She used il TO keep
her hair beautifully dark, glossy and
abundant. Whenever her hair fell
out or took on that dull. faded or
streaked appearance. this simple
mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home'is mussy and
oUt-of-date. Nowadays. by asking at
any drug store for a so cent bottle
OF "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is spcndid for dand-
ruff. dry, feverish, itchy scalp and
telling chair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied. You simply
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
IT and draw this through your hair,
taking one strand at a time. BY morn
ing the gray hair disappears. and af-
ter another application or two. IL
becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft
and abundant.

RIP VAN WINKLE" A
DELIGHTFUL OPERETA

Whoever has made a voyage up the
Hudson river must remember the
Kaatskill mountains. At the foot Of
these fairy cliffs the voyagor may
have seen quaint little village
whose shinglo roofs CLEAN among the
trees just where the blue tints Of the
upland melt away into the fresh green
of the nearer landscape. It is a viii
lage of great antiquity having been
founded by some of the Dutch colon
lists just about the beginning of tho
government Of the good Peter Stuyve-
SAINT. Here there lived for many
years, while the country was yet a
province of Great Britain, simple.
good-natured fellow. OF the name OF
Rip Van Winkle. He was doscen-
dant of the Van Wrinkles. a family OF
prominence in those days He was a
kind neighbor. and an obodicnt but
hen-pccked husband. Indeed TO the
latter circumstance might be owing
that meekness Of spirit which gained
him such universal popularity: for
