On going 10 his barn early Mon
day morning Ebb Fish discovered
that one Of his mules was missing
without causing any excitement,
Mr.. Fish. in his careful way, used
the telephone in getting in touch with

there would be no chance OF the
thief getting very far away. Then
by starting at his barn and follow
ing up clue after clue he had the
guilty man located within a very
short time after the theft was dis
covered. Marshal Watkins was
then sent after the man. who was
brought to Berea. his preliminary
trial held before Squire Ramsey
and he was taken 10 Richmond on
the noon train. where he was placed
IL Jail To await the action Of the
Grand Jury.
Mr.. Fish was very sorry 10 dis
cover that the guilty person was
Ned Parker, who had worked some
for him last year. He had repeat
eddy cautioned Parker about taking
small articles on his place before,
but in this case there was nothing
To do hut let the law have its course.
Mr.. Fish is To be complimented
upon his quick action in this mat
ter, for he not only recovered his
mule but also rendered service 10
the community in warning law
breakers against their evil doings.

neutrals which have suffered unjustiy in the loss of business, property and men should resent such acts as the torpedoing of the vessels. Both have desired to remain out of the war and have been shaping their course with such a purpose in view despite many aggravations. Holland, because of its position, has been bearing a burden which is well nigh intolerable, and to have this latest imposition thrust upon it without cause brings no surprise when it is declared that Holland sees the time when 1t will be driven from its present position, in spite of its strenuous efforts to avoid it.
 The sinking of the Greek ship with out warning while 1t was on its way from Holland to a neutral country in ballast was equally uncalled for. There is already q sympathetic feeling in Greece for the allies, which 1t has been possible to hold in check only be- cause the queen of Greece is a sister of the kaiser. Such inconsideration for the Greek flag can therefore have no soothing effect in that country. For its own interests Germany cannot agree to reparation any too soon.

FOR DRIVERS OF MOTOR VE
 HlCLES.

Many are the warnings and lists of don't" put forth for the benefit of all those who may be inclined to thoughtless action. Just how much
 good they do rests with the individual
 to say. Certainly tho fact that they
 have been presented does not permit
 it to be said that attention has not
 been called to the existing dangers
 and the rights of others. It does not
 allow for an excuse that there has not
 been fair warning as to the responsi-
 bility which each one must assume
 towards the welfare and safety of
 others as well as himself.
 With this in view the National Council of Industrial Safety offers these
 rules to all drivers of motor vehicles: First-Be considerate. Second-Got slow; first, passing chil- dren; second. passing vehicles; third, approaching crossings; fourth, turn
 ing corners.
 Third-Stop; first, at railroad cross ings; second, behind standing street cars.
 Fourth-Use chains on slippery pavements.
 FIfth-when in doubt go slow or stop.
 And these commandments: Don't run fast into or across main highways.
 Don't take blind curves too fast. Don't pass street cars when passen- gers are boarding or leaving. Don't fail to sound your horn be- fore passing other vehicles. Don't forget that car or a person may be just around the turn. Don't forget that the other fellow
 may be dull, reckless, or drunk Don't fail to look out for pedestrians Don't forget that children dash sud denly and unexpectedly Don't take chances. That's the sim pie and embracing rule. It is advice worthy of committing to memory and of needing, for it is through display of respect for others as well as self by each and every driver that accidents and needless deaths will be kept at the minimum.

 Effect of Firearms on Sight.
 Dr. Sendral, who has made a study of fire arm wounds as affecting the sight, declares that the former propor- tion of IF per cent to 15 per cent. of wounds in the head has been in- creased in the present war; he attri- butes it in part to the war of trench es and in part to the increased effec- tiveness of shell fire. Fifty percent of wounds affecting the sight are caused by shell fragments. forty per cent by rifle bullets, eight per cent by shrapnel bullets and two per cent various.
 The destruction of sight is in the greater number of cases the indirect result of wounds. There are a great many cases of what pr. Sendral calls hysterical blindness. Men are fre- quently struck blind as well as deaf and dumb by shock

STATE APPROPRIATIONS.

In keeping with the avowed inten- tions of the appropriations committee of the legislature expressed by Chair man Magee when 1t commenced work is the report it has made to the gen. eraI assembly of recommended appro- priations. It fully appreciated the ne- cessity of keeping down the expendi- lures to @ point that would be sem sible while considering both the needs of the state and the condition of it's finances,
 It was evident at the start that it was a time when serious consideration must be given to the business in hand The debt of the state had been piling up in a manner which called for check. The time had arrived when better thought was required in making the outgo more nearly correspond with the income. This permitted of action in two directions, but it was evident that the sensible accomplishment call ed for the holding down of appropria- tionS which could be deferred until a more favorable opportunity with the fixed charges and necessary expendt- ture being provided for. It was time for the cutting out of extrava- gances and treating the situation on business basis.
 This the committee appears to have done. Where over eighteen million dollars were asked in the various bills the amount recommended is practically thirteen million, sum two-thirds of a million less than two years ago. While the highway department and the state institutions and charities lose three of the five millions in the cut they are the only big losers and it is a noteworthy fact among the items which show an increase that almost twice as much will be required to meet the interest on the bonds and tenn porary loans of the state as was re- quired two years ago. It is one of the positive accompaniments of rush. ing into debt for 1t means a fixed charge until it Is overcome
 The promise of something less than two million additional as the result of new taxation recommended dis closes the manner in which income is planned to meet the outgo.

TURN HAIR DARK
 -. WITH SAGE TEA
Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy and thick with simple mixture
 of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

The o1d-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grand mothers treatment, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sen sible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the great est advantage.
 Nowadays though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready -to-use product called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover 1t has been ap- piled. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair. taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur is that, besides beautifully dark ening the hair after a few applica- tions, it also produces that soft 1ustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive; besides prevents dandruf. itching scalp and falling hair

CHARITIES AND CORRECTIONS.

This week should find not a little attention from every corner of Con- necticut centered upon the annual con- ference of charities and corrections at Stamford for from the ideas advanced by the speakers at that gathering of interested workers should result much of real benefit.
 The convention of representatives of state institutions and citizens interest ed in various charities and reforms is just what is needed for accelerating the work and getting the best results. It provides the opportunity for getting in touch with the requirements as we'll as the best methods of handling the many intricate problems as they arise. It is well to know how others do and when advanced by experts the advice cannot help but bear good fruit. The publicity which results through such meetings is most valuable method of increasing interest and attention in the work that is already being done by institutions here, there and everywhere and stirs up a deeper concern than could otherwise be aroused and Con- necticut cannot become too well in- formed upon conditions that already exist within its midst.
 From the sessions there should be & valuable fund of information for dis tribution through the delegates to all sections of the state for enlisting in- terest in the bettering of existing con- ditions for whatever follows in the way of reforms. the care of the unfortunate and the elimination of unhealthy and unjust methods has its good effect upon the public welfare and the future. It would be well if every town was represented.

Then I$ sneaked back down the street. They must have missed me at once, for I heard them coming.
 Melting gracefully into the back ground through a prickly lilac hedge collar and turned down my hat brim and let them rush past. Once I tried to sneak out, but they were in con- sultation, and I slipped back. Finally they all piled back into their apart ment, suppose, in order to see wheth- CT I had gone back there for anything. I slunk out and posed myself on the steps, resolved to give them large cold laugh when they came out and to tell them was on to their game and smarter than they thought.
 AS I sat there I was vaguely inter ested in seeing the patrol wagon dash down the street and several policemen racing back and forth. Suddenly there was a shriek and somebody grabbed me
 "'Here he is! Here he is, officer! I've got him!' the amazon sQuealed. And so she had! She had me by the hair of the head and couldn't budge. It seems that she had gazed out her window just ts I slunk into the shrub bery and disguised myself with turned up collar and turned down hat. and had watched me pussy footing after the boys.
 That woman will never forgive me for not being a dangerous character. And the fellows will never get over my being arrested by mere woman. And the awful part of 1t is that they were perfectly innocent of any idea of hazing me. They were trying to be perfect little gentlemen and to give me good time. hope Biggs' wife poisons him with her attempts at cooking!"

I've a new motto" said the young man with the wide smile. i've had 1t ever since a certain night last week, and it is this-'A danger at hand is worth two in the bush.'
 Admirable" commented his listener. "But why?"
 The young man with the wide smile little bachelor colony in the new apart ments that Is the envy of everybody who knows about 1t? Well, the fel- lows asked me to join them when Biz ~ot married. Was I tickled Yes and yesi I was flattered that they should want me and delirious with rapture at getting out of my hotel life. Baker spoke to me about it and said that they wanted me to dine with them Wednesday night and talk 1t over It was right there that met Riggs and he took the joy out of life by warning me.
 T sail never know whether Riggs is just a practical joker and can't help being a pest or whether he was plain Jealous because he had to leave the bachelor society on account of matri- mony and mad because I was going to get his place. It must be awful, when you're deliberately putting yourself in the way of plumbers and icemen's bills and whooping cough and relatives from the country to view a fellow man cheer1ly un1ncumbered by such things!
 Anyhow, Biggs advised me to look out, saying that the fellows had it all fixed up to give me an initiation that would remember when I had reached the last star in my journey through the universe. It worried me considerably, for a I hate to be made a fool-and what those chaps cant think up isn't worth much!
 'I went to that dinner prepared for horrors, and the way they received me confirmed my worst suspicious. You see, they were so internally cordial and simply and calm and quiet! I knew then that whatever it was it would be a corker. and I wondered whether it was worth it. As the dinner pro- gressed I had spells of believing 1t was worth 1t. for that Jap of theirs is a cook for your life and the thought of sitting down to meals like that every night was as balm. I expected things to happen during dinner-weak school boyish things. like tabasco in the soup and soap for butter and cloth in the biscuit.
 ~But when none of these incidents developed my heart sank. It was to be infinitely worse. Even the cigars weren't loaded and the matches didn't blow up. Whatever they had in mind
