The War Zone Warning
CFrom the New York SUM

one of the Allies would provoke
storm of indignation in the United
States, the consequence of which
might be a declaration of war against
Germany in spite of all that diplom-
acy could do to avoid it.
AS the German Admiralty UNDER
stands this perfectly the presumption
is that the "war zone warning was
issued with no thought that German
warships would commit the blunder OF
sinking neutral merchant ships. but
to frighten shipping circles in both
England and the United States INTO
suspension of sailings. A great blow
would certainly be struck at the enemy
if expectations of food and war mater
ials from the United States to the
Allies could be stopped or greatly re-
duced. The German government may
have another object in view, a strate-
gic object To meet the greater peril
threatened TO her merchant SHIPS
Great Britain will be obliged to DC
tach considerable number OF DC
stroyers and submarines from the
North Sea and send them into the
Channel. the Irish Sea and the North
Atlantic. leaving her patrol OF the
North Sea by so much weakened.
Raids upon the cast coast of England
and attacks upon transports convey
ing troops to France could then be
attempted with better chances OF sue
cess.
Great Britain cannot afford TO re-
move any of her merchant ships from
the Atlantic route. The only notlce
she can take of the war zone notice
is to use all her available resources
to protect her ships and destroy the
German submarines lying in wait TOT
them As it is impossible for the Ger
mans to establish an effective blockade
of British waters with submarines OF
with any other warships, the United
States. unless it is supinely willing to
forego plain neutral rights on the
high seas. will disregard the "wal
zone" warning. It's tone Of bluster ano
menace will make no new friends TOT
Germany and is likely TO ALLEVIATE ole
friends. A more impolitic document
was never issued. What an unfortu'
nate capacity for blundering the Ger
man government seems to have II

SAGE and SULPHUR
DARKENS CRAY HAIR
It's GrandmOther's Recipe to Restore
Color. Gloss and Thickness.

Hair that loses its color and lustre
or when il fades. turns gray, duh
and lifeless. is caused by a lack Of
sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother
made up a mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands of women
and men Who value that even color
that beautiful dark shade of hail
which is so attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
so cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
end Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. Besides, il takes off
dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall
ing hair. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with il and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyoth's Sage
and Sulphur is that. besides bcauti-
fully darkcning the hair after a few
applications. il also brings back The
gloss and lustrc and gives Il an ap-
poarance of abundance.

Just A Moment
DAILY STRENGTH AND GREER.
Compiled by John G. Quinius,

It is new life to know that to love
God and man is the sum of existence.
Let us look into this word love.
Love to man may mean several things.
1t may mean love to his person.
which is very different srom himself
or it may mean simply pity. Love to
God can only mean one thing; God is
Character. To love God is to love
His character. For instance-God is
Purity. And to be pure in thought and
look; to turn away from unhallowed
books and conversation, to abhor the
moment in which we have not been
pure, is to love God. God is Love
and to love men till private attach
ments have expanded into a philan
thropy which embraces all-at last
even the evil and enemies with com
passion-that is to love God. God is
Truth. To be true, to hate every
form of falsehood, to live a brave,
true, real life-that is to love God.
God is Infinite; and to love the
boundless, reaching on from grace to
grace, adding charity to faith, and
rising upward ever to see the Ideal
still above us, and to die with it unat-
tanned, aiming insatiably to be perfect
even as the Father is perfect-that is
/ love to God. This love is manifested
in obedience; love is the life of which
obedience is the form Nothing
can he love to God which does not
shape itself into obedience.
Well-Springs Of Wisdom.
This day, o Christ. We celebrate Thy
victory over death. Bring to us new
life of body through this nourishment,
and new life to soul by Thy presence
with us now and help us to say with
Thy servant Of old, Thanks be to
God which giveth us the victory
through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen.
He that keepeth the law, happy IS
he.-Prov. xxx. is.
oh, righteous doom, that they who
make
Pleasure their only end,
Ordering the whole life for its sake,
Miss that whereto they tend;
While they who bid stern duty lead,
Content TO follow-they,
OF duty only taking heed
Find pleasure by the way.

Though he never did any one i'll,
And so he is through with his canine
play
And his wagglety tail is still.
No. more shall walk in the fields
with him
Along at my side TO jog
And don't care if my eyes are dim
Somebody poisoned my dog!
He was homely, I know, as a dos
could be,
And only a mongrel. too;
But l loved the old fellow and ne
loved me
AS people and dogs may do.
Nothing on earth could disturb his
trust.
Or his love and his faith befog,
And now he lies at my feet. IN the
dust
Somebody poisoned my dogl
He crawled to my side and licked my
hand,
And then with a gasp he died;
And-though some people can't un-
derstand
matted his head-and criedl
For il isn't funny to lose friend
From of this earthly cog.
| And nc was loyal unto the end
Somebody poisoned my dog!
l wonder how any one could have
done
This poor little fellow harm;
But here he lies-his race is run
Though his body is still soft ant
warm.

My pace is quiet jog,
But / wish | could find the snake o
