WOMAN'S BOARD OF MISSIONS

Burlington, VT, is the place chosen
for the annual meeting Of the Wo-
mans Board of Missions this year,
and many attractive plans are being
made for the three days, November 10
to IL. The array Of names on the pro-
gram includes missionaries from all
over the world, young women who are
under appointment, expecting soon TO
go to the foreign field and well known
missionary experts. Two popular
speakers who will be eagerly heard
are the Rev. Raymond Calkins, d. d.,
of Cambridge, and ID. Brewer Eddy,
one of the secretaries Of the Ameri-
can board. Deepest interest will I'M
doubtedly focus on the missionaries
who have recently come out of Tur-
key. They include Miss Mary d.
Uline of Bitlis, Miss Caroline Silliman
and Miss f. Gertrude Rogers OF Van,
the latter one Of that sick and sor-
rowful little party which was obliged
to make hurried flight with the Rus
slams to Tifis when the Turks return
ed to Van with reinforcements.
The commission service for a young
doctor, Miss Lora G. Dyer, M. d., Of
Plainfield, Mass, who is soon to go to
Foochow, China, will be another inn
pressive feature of the program.
Wednesday evening, November 10,
will be devoted to a young peoples
rally, with inspirational addresses and
special music. All sessions are TO be
held in the First Church. Burlington
aides are making many hospitable

gates who will come from all over

GRANTING AUTO LICENSES

II Is difficult TO understand what
sort OF a reasonable objection can be
brought against the demand OF the
Safety First Federation Of America
that legislation be passed requiring
"the mental, moral, and physical ex.
animation of motor ear operators.
4 Automobiles have become so common
on the streets Of cities and the high
ways Of the country that il is abso-
lutely imperative that such action be
taken as will tend TO reduce the large
number of accidents.
1t will be granted at once that it
would be unwise TO let any man or
woman Of unsound mentality, who, in
other words would be unable TO realize
the responsibility that goes with the
taking Of the steering wheel, operate
over our highways, a constant, though
unintentional, menace, not alone to his
or her own safety but to the safety Of
others as well.
Likewise a man who is not ply
sically fit should not be given license
to operate car. This does not mean
that a driver should be Hercules,
but it does mean that one whose eyes,
nerves, and muscles do not coordinate
in his or her action is unfit to guide a
machine. Would there be any safety in
permitting man subject to epileptic
fits to drive along crowded thor
oughfare
The moral examination is not so
clear cut, and perhaps may not be
correctly named, but in the large it
is understandable, If the candidate |
for a license is so immoral that he
the laws of society he is
to be shut up in prison. But that isn't
the point here.
Probably the federation considers
.he drinking of intoxicating liquors a
moral question and means that per-
sons who use intoxicants should be
barred. That is what was advocated
~ Pennsylvania railroad official at
| safety first congress in Philadelphia.

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try orandma'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 is
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 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.

A "Flyino" MaIady.

The doctors are puzzled concerning
a strange malady that has broken out
at more than one aeroplane works, and
has in one case ended fatally. The
malady in some respects resembles
yellow jaundice, and it is, rightly or
wrongly, attributed to contact with an
aeroplane dope" or to inhaling its
odor
Further particulars need not at the
moment be indicated, but it has been
suggested that the source of the trou.
BILE may be amyl acetate, which is
used as dope" solvent. Some mys-
terry attaches to the affair, the precise
nature of the malady not having yet
been determined, in spite of close ex-
animation and analysis; and. of course.
until success is attained in this direc-
ton no satisfactory precautions or
remedy can be devised.
