DARKEN CRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens So Natu-
rally That Nobody Can Tell.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and lustre
TO the hair when faded. streaked or
gray; also ends dandrun. 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 drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" you will get a
large bottle of this famous old recipe
for about 80 cents.
Don't stay grayl Try it, No one
can possibly tell that you darkened your
hair. as il 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 morning the gray hair dsap-
pears, and after another application or
two, your hair becomes beautifully dark,
thick and glossy.

Pitiful Appeals From Soldiers
Heard in Berlin.

Berlin. April An anti-vermin
fund is the latest and most unusual
product of the war. 1t has been
started by the central committee in
charge of gifts to the soldiers, which
has appealed to every German in the
empire to contribute a least one mark.
The biggest banks in Berlin. with
branches in every large city, have
been made the repositories and agents.
The unique fund is the outcome Of
almost pitiful appeals from the sol
diers in the east, increasing in number
every day. Worse than hunger, thirst
or sickness. they say, is the terrible
scourge that has attacked them and
against which they are powerless.
supplies of materials for combating
the pest have been exhausted and at
present there are no funds on hand for
the purchase of more.
The appeal + at has gone out is,
headed: Give quickly, The need is

Preliminary Hearing i'm Sensational
Murder Case Today.
WOMAN ADMITS III ALL
Widow of McELheney Says She Was
Intimate With Mail Carrier.
Often Visited Him in His Own Home,
Declares Woman.

Paola, Kan, April preliminary
hearing of Roscoe Hornbaker, a mail
carrier of Louisburg, Kan, charged
with the murder of George B. McEl-
heney, postmaster of that place, Oc-
tober 4, 1913, began before Justice J..
P. Williford here today.
Chief interest in the hearing CEN
tered in the expected testimony of
the widow of the slain man, who b. j.
Carver, prosecuting attorney an
nounced will testify for the prosecu-
ton. The court room was crowded
tors being neighbors of the Hornbak-
ers and the McElheneys.
Those who were unable to obtain
admission gathered in little groups in
the street outside and discussed the
case.
The first witness called was DIR. J..
V. Ferrel, former coroner at Louis
burg, who testified as to the manner
of McElheney's death.
Then DR.. Ferrel was asked if he had
heard that Hornbaker had been pay
ing attention to Mrs. McElheney, the
widow of the slain man.
DIR. Ferrel said he had heard Horn
baker had frequently called Mrs. Nc
Elheney on the telephone, but that
he had been unable to verify the re-
port
Dr. FerreI testified that Sam Rode
becker, a resident of Louisberg, had
told him that Mrs McElheney had let

former coroner said that upon ques-
tioning Hornbaker the latter denied
the existence of any letters and also
that Hornbaker asked him at the time
if there was no way to get the inVes-
tigation into the death of the postmas-
ter hushed up.
Two weeks ago, DR.. Ferrel con-
tinued, Hornbaker came to him on
three separate mornings and asked if
the investigation could not be dropped.

GERMANS COT her
Steamer South Point, Supposed
Lost in a Storm
Was TOrpedOed by Submarine
U-2S and Sunk.

London. April 2.-Torpedoing of
three more British merchant steamers,
with a loss of 80 lives, brought further
demands for reprisals today from
English shipping firms. They proposed
that German prisoners of war be
placed aboard all English ships trav-
erSing the German war zone as a safe
guard against submarine attack
A petition to that effect was circu-
lated in shipping circles today and
had many signers. British officials,
however, doubted if the plan would
prove feasible.
They declared that in her despera-
ton, Germany would not hesitate to
shoot torpedoes against British mer-
chantmen, even in the knowledge that
German prisoners of war were aboard.
Dispatches from Lisbon early today
reported that the British steamer
South Point reported lost in storm
off Cape Finisterre, was torpedoed
by the German submarine UPS while
returning to Philadelphia after taking
a cargo of flour to Belgium.

Mrs. Mabel Hines, the 19 year old

The disappearance of the girl-wife

ing Bull Moose, Says Scott.
RAILROADS ARE UP AGAINST IT
He Urges Wise Legislation and
Not Wild Restriction.
Commercial Club Luncheon At
tended by Big Crowd.

With nothing to say in direct way
as to his possible presidential cand1-
dacy in 1916 and only a laugh and
an evasive reply for the report that
Roosevelt would support him in the
fight to defeat President Wilson, Sem
ator John w Weeks of Massachusetts
came to Topeka today to talk 1t
over with Kansas Republican lead
ers Shrewdly changing the conversa-
ton from politics to business, Senator
Weeks told why business conditions
were stagnant, why the Kansas banks
are filled with money and no demand
and pointed to a financial crisis under
the Democratic tariff rule.
The coming of the Newton, Mass,
senator to Topeka today is a matter
OF genuine importance to political
leaders and observers. Suddenly out
of the agitation over national leaders
in 1916, Senator Weeks has been
brought to the front to lead the ke-
publicans to victory in the coming bat
tie. A new hope was born in the
breasts of Republicans when Victor
Murdoch was quoted as saying that
even Roosevelt could support Senator
Weeks in the national campaign. But

trampled on defenseless business until

Didn't Come to Talk Politics.
'I didn't come west to talk politics.
/ came to talk business" said Weeks
when urged today to talk about politi-
cal issues. a visitor who accompanied
the senator to his room found a seat
on the edge of the bed as the senator
diVed into a suitcase and made ready
to change linens for a Commercial
club luncheon.
Business conditions are the big is
sues before the people today" urged
Weeks. There has been entirely too
much legislative batting of the cor
porations and business industries. De
preston is due to too much legiSla-
ton, too much restriction, too much
inspection, too much regulation. And
yet the whole country is apparently in
crops, easy money the balance of
trade in our favor

SLAP AT FAT men
Germany Says Stout Eat Too
Much of Nations Food.
Sacred Duty for Heayies to Be-
come Thin, Is Decree.

Cologne, April 2.-The thin man is
eulogized by the Koelnische Zeitung
not only as food saver as compared
with the stout man but as a more
active and useful member of society.
THE thin man. says this paper, has
need of much less food to sustain life
than the stout man. Every step we
take, every movement, makes a de-
mand on nourishment equal in pro-
portion to the quantity of fat used up
in the movement.
Whoever, therefore, has dimin-
ished his weight by 10 per cent, for
example, diminiSheS at the same time
the quantity of food that he needs by
10 per cent.
Very thin men enjoy a physical
vigor and energy that is really extra
ordinary. Hence in these days, when
we are constrained to economic in
our meals, it becomes at the same
time sacred duty toward the Father
land and an individual duty to reduce
ones food consumption and ones fat
