Safety First.

John Sharp Williams stepped out of the senate chamber in response to the card of Bob Gates, who is a Washing ton correspondent of distinguished ap- pearance and much political sapience.
 Bob asked him a number of ques- tions and then in parting, he asked:
 By the way, Senator, have you got a good cigar about you?"-putting the request under the head of unfinished business.
 No, l haven't but one left-and I just now bit the end off it preparatory to lighting it" replied John Sharp.
 If I'd just been minute or two sooner" suggested Bob.
 Not exactly" said the senator. "The fact, is, when 1 started out here l bit the end off the cigar just for fear you might ask for it."

BELIEVE U. s. WILL
 ATTACK GERMANY
M. HANOTAUx SAYS AMERICAN WARSHIPS WILL DESTROY
 GERMAN SUBMARINES.

Paris.-America's reply to Ger many's blockade notification has brought forth chorus of praise from the principal writers in the French press. Even George Clemenceau, who hitherto has been disposed to criticise President Wilson, says the president has spoken the words the American people expected in such way that Germany has no alternative but to back down. Gabriel Hanetaux says in the Figaro:
 The American note to Germany Is an act of high historic initiative and the first step toward the inevitable participation of neutrals in the great events which are dividing the world. President Wilson was obliged to pass from discussion to action. What do the measures mentioned in the note mean but that the American warship will fall upon German submarines a tacking American ships in total disre- gard of Americas sovereign rights? Either Germany can give in or she can disregard Washington's note and go on with her plan to force England to capitulate. Then President Wilson would not recede from his position"

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
 TO OARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
 Gloss, Thickness.

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 1t at home. which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get large bottle of the famous old recipe for about 50 cents.
 Don't stay gray, Try 1t! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair as it does 1t so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw tSis through your hair, taking one small strand at time. by morning the gray hair disappears. and after another ap- plication or two. your hair becomes beautifully dark. thick and glossy Adv.

 Turkey is prepared to carry on the war to the end of the European con- flict. The fact of being able to face the enemy on four fronts simultan- eously against forces three or four times greater than ours and to mo- biliSe at the same time an army of more than one million men for a re- serve Is for us as well as for our al lies, matter of greatest importance and for our allies a precious advan- tage."
 The next statement of the minister was that no other war ever had been so enthusiastically received in Turkey. This was made in reply to a question concerning the attitude of the Turkish people toward the present conflict
 Russia is our heriditary enemy. and Great Britain Is the power which subjugated lslam." the minister said Nothing demonstrates the enthu- siasm of the people so well as the for nation of volunteer regiments in all corners of our immense empire"

To Ask lf Any Arrangements Are Made For identifying Neutral
 Ships.

WaShington.-After the cabinet meeting, it was said, it was consider ed that the situation regarding Ameri- ca and Germany is not at all threat ening and the administration has no fear that any American ship will be sunk.

It was under stood, however, that inquiries will be sent to maritime insurance companies to learn if any arrangement has been made for identifying neutral ships
 A dispatch from Berlin quotes the Vossische Zeitung on the latest Ger man communication to the United States as follows:
 The new German measures at sea are directed against two of the allies of Great Britain. One is the Ameri- can traffic In arms and the other Is starvation. We need no American arms; we shall make the struggle With starvation in the firm conscious ness that he will pull through, even Ii not ~e single grain of wheat reaches us.
