An Editors Troubles

1t is an old story, but one that need:
repeating now and again. 1t is the age
dong struggle of the newspaper publish
.er to get his head above the whirlpools
of free advertising. The Colebrook Sen.
tinel covers the subject forcefully and
we are copying it that our readers may
think it over the next time they are
tempted to ask for more than reason.
able amount of this kind of service:
"Nobody ever thinks of going to the
coal dealer and asking him to send a
little coal up to the church or lodge
room to heat up the building for meet
ing or entertainment Nor does one ask
the ice cream man to donate ice cream,
nor does one suggest that the electric
company furnish lights for the occasion.
But people often express surprise and
remuneration for an advertising notice
relative to aforesaid meeting or enter
tainment. 1.-THE coal dealer or ice cream
man, or the electric light company
should voluntarily donate said coal, ice
cream or lights, the recipients thereof
would be exceedingly grateful, and
would probably instruct the newspaper
man to run a free notice telling the
public all about the generosity of afore-
said coal dealer, ice cream man or the
electric light company. But nobody
runs notice eulogizing the generosity
of the newspaper man, for free adj
vertising, especially for the reading
notice brand, which by the way is the
most expensive in time and labor, is
taken for granted as the natural gift.
The editor very gladly gives certain
amount of complimentary space to
charitable and other organizations
weekly. He gives this freely, to the ex-
act limit of space available. This COM
plimentary service means work for the
compositor and work for the makeup
man. 1t is work absolutely without the
slightest hope of reward. And there
are in this community persons so devoid
of appreciation of courtesies extended,
that not only do they fail to express
gratitude for favors shown, but on occa-
sion feel it incumbent upon themselves
to bawl out the editor if perchance he
does not allow them quota of space they
consider their natural right. If the
butcher should present them with fine
juicy steak Friday evening would these
same persons visit his shop on Saturday
morning and roast him to turn be-
cause the steak was not sufficiently |
large for the entire family.
The newspaper mans space is just as
much his stock in trade as the coal deal |
er's coal, the ice cream mans ice cream,
the electric light company's electric
ity or the butchers meats. Theaverage |
man never thinks of the hours of toll
soul sweating toil-it takes
to get out paper. He never thinks of
the worries, trialsand tribulations every
editor must undergo. Every line of
type in a newspaper represents labor
that costs money, and there is a lot of /
money tied up in type, presses andother
equipment. Paper and ink, rent, heat,
light, power and insurance must be paid
for out of the income derived from the
newspaper mans stock in trade.-Brad-

IF HAIR IS TURNING
 GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't Look Old! Try Grandmother's Recipe to Darken and Beautify
 Gray, Faded, LifeIess Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened. glossy and abundant with a 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 50 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 a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after an other application or two, 1t is re- stored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and abundant.-Adv.

Birds Increase purina War.

Wild birds which were formerly shot as game have been increasing rapidly since the war in France, Bel gium and other countries, according to T. Gilbert Pearson, secretary of the National Association of Audubon So cieties.
 For example, the French govern ment has stopped all hunting" he said, "and the minister of war has is- sued an order that the sale of native s:esss not he -clsga-sa.-. erdl; narily more than one thousand tons of native-killed game are sold annual ly in the markets of France, repre- senting many millions of game birds.
 Belgium in time of peace was one of the greatest bird-catching countries in Europe. More than fifty thousand skylarks, as well as hundreds of thou sands of other birds, were annually trapped and exported from that coun- try for food. Our correspondents have found that there was less hunt ing in all parts of Europe than for merly."

NO BUREAU OF INFORMATION
Stranger Possibly Resented Fact That He Had Been Caused Some lncon-

On one of the recent stormy nights man was hastening home with his overcoat buttoned up to his neck. He was rather anxious to know what time it was, but he was too lazy to unbut- ton his coat in order to get at his watch.
 Just then he saw a man of we'll dressed appearance coming in the distance, and remarked to himself: I'll ask this gentleman the hour of the night, and so save myself the trouble of unbuttoning my coat.
 He perceived that the stranger was buttoned up just as he was. When he came up, the man who wanted to know the time touched his hat politely and said:
 Sir, do you know what time it is?'
 The stranger paused, removed his right glove, unbuttoned his coat from top to bottom, unbuttoned his under coat, and finally pulled out his watch while the cold wind beat against his unprotected chest.
 Holding up the watch so that tl' light would shine upon it. he scrutin l ized it an instant, and said:

Ever since the discovery of uric acid in the blood by Scheele, in 1775, and the bad effect 1t had upon the body, scientists and physicians have striven to rid the tissues and the blood of this poison. Because of it's over abundance in the system 1t causes backache, pains here and there, rheu- matism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and sciatica.
