WASHINGTON. Aug. 24.-The Ger
man-American outlook suddenly
frightened this afternoon with ar
rival at the state Department Of a
request from the Kaiser's ambassador
Count Won Bernstorff. that no action
be taken by the United States until
the receipt here OF the official report
on the incident from Berlin.
Bernstorff's message said he pre-
ferred his request at the Berlin gov
ernments request
He said the latter wanted the United
States to know all the facts on both
sides OF the Arabic case

had not yet been able 10 hear from
its submarine commander and conse-
quently was not itself in possession
OF details Of the incident, which Il
was itself most anxious TO know.
The State Department did not, in
deed. definitely announce receipt Of
the ambassadors request.
That Bernstorn, who was In New
York, had asked permission to make
! tho message public there. was tacitly
admitted, however. and IL was under
stood that permission was promptly
granted.
More than this. State Department
oficials said. alphabetically. that If
such a request had been made by
the ambassador It was extremely
reassuring."
The impression was that he had
acted on the strength Of an intimation
] a. ~
would be forthcoming and that II
would be OF a nature satisfactory to
the United States.
Otherwise. Il was pointed out there
could have been no reason for the
request This development was an
immense relief. since Il had beer
feared from the Berlin government
silence thus far. that the intention
was 10 say nothing and leave the
Washington administration 10 infer
anything II pleased.
The request was interpreted as ad
mitting that Germany would eithei
deny an attack by one OF its U boat
} on the Arabic and offer evidence n
J support Of this claim and that
; would furnish an explanation for th
incident Of a nature at least to opel

YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and No
body Will Know

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded. gray hair to its natur-
al color dates back to grandm others
time. She used 1t TO keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and abundant.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of- date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a 50-cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Cora
pound" YOU will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair and is splendid for dafdruff, dry,
feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair
A well-tnown downtown druggist
says It darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an-
other application or two it becomes
beautifully dark. glossy, and abundant.

rs loved by artists and story-tellers and
teachers and childhood. 1t is an OBJ
vious reminder for our own day that
the child should be in the church
Youths fair flowers are a better tenn
poral Offering than bullocks or goats
or doves Surely God would rather
hear the childish voices of praise rails
ed in His house than the trained notes
of high-salaried choirs. Great Britain
has inaugurated "A Children at
Church" movement. America might
emulate this. There was work in the
old Shiloh tabernacle for the child
Samuel: errands to run for Eli, the
priest and a daily routine of small
tasks to be fulfilled. Nothing is so
useful in house or an institution
as small boy of the right sort.
Fitting about the outer courts of
the tabernacle we again see Samuel
in his linen ephod. Every stitch testi-
fed to a mothers love and pride.
Year by year the parents came up to
Shiloh to sacrifice. The child in the
tabernacle belonged to Hannah and
Elkanah and to Jehovah in partner
ship. And the child Samuel grew
on. and increased in favor both with
Jehovah and also with men," That
record was later written almost liter
ally of another Child. who became
the worlds Minister and Saviour.
Inc voice IN the Night
The climax of the story of the child
is told best in the words of the BOOK
itself:
And the child Samuel ministered
unto Jehovah before Eli. And the
word of Jehovah was precious IN
those days; there was no frequent Wis
ion. And it came TO pass at that time,
when Eli was laid down in his place,
(now his eyes had begun to wax dim.
so that he could not see,) and the
lamp of God was not yet gone out, and
Samuel was laid down to sleep, in the
temple of Jehovah, where the ark of
God was; that Jehovah called Samuel:
and he said Here am I. And he ran
unto Eli. and said, Here am /; for
thou calIest me. And he said, | called
not: lie down again. And he went and
lay down. And Jehovah called yet
again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and
went TO Eli and said Here am I: for
thou calledst me. And he answered,
! called not, my son; lie down again.
Now Samuel did not yet know Jeho-
vah, neither was the word OF Jeho-
yah yet revealed unto him. And Je-
hovah called Samuel again the third
time. And he arose and went to Eli,
and said, Here am !; for thou ca1ledst
me- And Eli perceived that Jehovah
had called the child. Therefore Eli
said unto Samuel, Go. lie down, and it
shall be If He call thee, thou shalt say
Speak. Jehovah, for Thy servant hear
eth. So Samuel went and laid down
in his place.
And Jehovah came. and stood, and
called as at other times. Samuel. Sam
uel Then Samuel said. Speak: for
Thy servant heareth. And Jehovah
said to Samuel. Behold, I will do n
thing in Israel at which both the ears
