Among the Germans most noble
efforts is that of dropping seditious
literature from aerOplanes for the benefit
of our Indian troops, and OF employing
spies to fire on our men and trenches

out of place, a Madonna or a crucifix.
"A German bullet shattered itself on
one OF our loop-holes just by me a few

Hare-Lip leaped to his feet, giving
a quick glance at the pasturing goats
and the afternoon sun.
"Gee!" he muttered to Edwin. THE
old geezer gets more long winded
every day. Let's pull for camp"
While the other two, aided by the
dogs, assembled the goats and started
them for the trail through the forest,
Edwin stayed by the old man and
guided him in the same direction.
When they reached the old right-of-

looked back. Hare-Lip and Hoo-Hoo

white waste of shore-lashed waters,
the sea lions, believing their old
primeval chant, hauled up out of the

FRUIT LAXATIVE

Every mother realizes, after giving
her children California Syrup OF

and it thoroughly cleanses the tender
little stomach, liver and bowels with
out gripping.
When cross, irritable, feverish, or
breath is bad, stomach sour, look at
the tongue, mother! If coated, give a
teaspoonful of this harmless fruit
laxative" and in few hours all the
foul, constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out of the bow
els, and you have a we'll, playful child
again. When its little system is full
of cold, throat sore, has stomach-ache,
diarrhoea, indigestion, colic-remem-
ber good inside cleaning" should
always be the first treatment given.
Millions of mothers keep California
Syrup of Figs" handy; they know a
teaspoonful today saves sick child

IF HAIR IS TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't Look oldl Try Grandmother's
Recipe to Darken and Beauty
Gray, Faded, Lifeess Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get a
large bottle Of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about SO cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is splendid for dan
druff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, it is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. Adv.

SPREAD A SPIRIT OF Joy
Fat Man, With His Laugh, Dispelled
Some of the "Blue Monday"
Downheartedness.

The scene was a crowded street car,
and the time was about eight of a
Monday morning. Blue Monday was
written plainly across the face OF
nearly every passenger-except one.
He was a man round of face and al
most spherical of figure, who chung to
strap and swayed with the crowd as
the car rounded the turns. In his free
hand he held a humorous weekly,
which he read between sways. And
as he read he laughed. Not dry
cackle or low chuckle, but whole
some laugh, which seemed to start
somewhere near his shoes and gather
volume and tone as it rose through
his body and finally emerged from his
parted lips. Some gazed at him with
a kind of subdued horror expressed in
their eyes, as If he had intruded on
their private case of blues. But the
majority looked upon him with envy,
and that envy called attention to a
common human failing all too common
for the good of the race. We are in
clined to look upon wholesome laugh
ter, especially in public, as sign of
reprehensible vulgarity. But then why
the envy? Perhaps because the man
seemed to be enjoying himself after
his own fashion, and though his fash
ion might be wrong, the enjoyment
might be all right, There is some
thing refreshing about wholesome
laughter, which is contagious, and 1t
is probable that those who heard the
fat man laugh went to their work in
better spirits. In that case he per-
formed a real public service, and he
is a man to be praised. And in any
case there can be little doubt that the
fat man ate better, slept better and
worked better for his totally uncon'
scious exhibition of rare talent.

pain il a Hint 10 the wlse.

One thing that should be regarded
seriously is pain in any form in any
part of the body. If there is a dull
headache frequently. find out what
causes it. Pain in the knee, the arch
of the foot or at any point should be
taken seriously. Pain means some
thing wrong. 1t may be brave to
bear it, but 1t is not wise. Remember
that pain felt in one part of the body
may be the result of something wrong
in another part. See a wise doctor
about it.--Boy Scout Handbook.
