thrust upon me when | went down to
get my marriage license last month.
When | think it over | am ready to
assert that it was a disagreeablc sur
prise.
Il sneaked into the big office under
the impression that everybody was
watching me. But when ! told the
clerk at the window what | wanted he
took the information with Il GOODNESS
that was almost disgusting. When |
gave him my name-which seemed to
me to reverberate like thundcr-not II
solitary clerk raised his head. And
nobody laughed when the inquisitor
asked me how | spelled it. When |
gave the lady's name and fancied
everybody would litter the only sound
l could hear was the turning of record
leaves and the muddled clicking of Il
distant typewriter.
why, they couldn't have treated me
with more Indifference if | had been
buying marriage licenses twice a day
for ten years.
II went into that office feeling sham
ed and sensitive and sneaking.
II came out hurt, Inundated, hum
bled.
II had expected to be ridiculed-I
was absolutely ignored. "-Cleveland

DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Grandma's recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur darkens so naturally
;, that nobody can tell.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Ten
and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and lustre
to the hair when faded, etreaked 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 trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any drug
store for .Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy" you will get large bot
tie of this famous old recipe for about
so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try i'll No one
can possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it 80 naturally and
evenly. You dampen sponge OF soft
brush with it and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at a time;
by morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy.
A cool cellar is the best place fol
cabbages. Hang them up or wrap them
on paper andlay on shelves.

are not willing to consider terms that
Germany and Austria could entertain
as basis for negotiations, it would
further seem likely that the war
might be prolonged for still another
year-making a total war period of
three years. The prospect is a sad
and painful one to all who have man
aged to keep from becoming hardened
to the terrible facts and incidents of
the struggle. AS yet, the fighting gov
ernments are sustained by their long
suffering peoples. There is no urgent
demand for peace. The spirit Of hos
tility is so dominant in the warning
nations that most of the women are
willing to lose their husbands and
sons rather than to open their minds
to see that the war itself is victimizins
the worthy families of all countries,
who have no conceivable ground of
racial or national enmity.

BRITISH SEIZE GOLD
Warship Holds Up Dutch Steamer
and Grabs a Million Alleged
German Coin.

Washington, Dec. S.-The seizure
by a British warship of. 81, 5000 in
gold coin aboard the Dutch steamer
Noordam, shipped from New York to
Rotterdam by the banking firm of
Goldman, Sachs & Company has re-
suited, it was learned today, in plac-

eminent for determination this ques-
ton:
May gold coin ordinary contraband
be permitted to pass from one neu-
trail country to another when it prob
ably will find its way to Germany to
meet trade balances"
The question comes up for answer
in connection with certification today
by the British embassy to the foreign
office, of the standing of the firm
whose funds were seized. This was
done so that the transaction might APP
pear in it's true liSht-the normal and
regular course of financial exchange
between a reputable business firm and
it's connections in Holland.
