LADIES! DARkEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look years younger! Use Grandmoth-
er's recipe of Sage Tea and Sui
phur and nobody will know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to It's natural
color dates back to grandmother s time
She used it to keep her hair beautiful
ly dark, glossy and abundant. When
ever her hair fell out or took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-ofdate. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for 50-cent bottle of
"Wyeth s Sage and Sulphur Com
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 dandruff, dry,
feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known 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 a time. BY morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
pication or two it becomes beautifully
dark, glossy, and abundant.

The elephant is massive, hatfoot-
ed beast with puncture proof hide
and a coarse, yawning complexion
Many attempts have been made to re-
fine the complexion of the elephant by
applying cold cream AID the patent
pimple eradicator, but without any
success whatever.
Elephants do not grow in this coun-
try to any extent, as the climate is too
severe, but are found in great album
dance in the heart Of Africa by dar-
ing hunters who have left their wives
with ill-concealed relief to brave the
dangers of the tropical forest and the
deadly rigors of the Congo flea. Ele-
plant hunting is an exciting pastime
and frequently causes several deaths
to occur far from home. 1t must be sad
to 90 so far away in search of rest
and quiet and then die with low
gurgle as the result of being stepped
upon by the hind leg of an infiamed
elephant.
The elephant is kind animal, and
seldom strikes the first blow 1t does
not go around with chip Oh its
shoulder, like the uneasy female
honess. Nobody ever saw an elephant
reach out and sink its trunk into an
innocent bystander who had brought
his entire family to the circus on a
billboard pass. Yet some people would

The United States will never be
able to make case against any of
the belligerent nations in connection
with the sinking of the Persia. Ger
many disclaimed all responsibility in
connection with the affair and sharp
notes were sent to Austria, but that
country gets a clear alibi by stating
that all of its submarines operating in
the Mediterranean have reported and
that none of them attacked the i'll
fated vessel. Inquiries have now been
addressed to Turkey, but there is alb
solutuly 10 evidence at hand to show
that it was a Turkish submarine that
fired the deadly torpedo. The only
thing that we are certain of is that ii
was not a Swiss undersea craft which
wrought the deadly havoc.

Thomas B. Holmes, sole survivor of
the group of American mining men
slaughtered by Mexican bandits in the
state of Chihuahua recently, has ar
rived at his old home in Keene, n. H.
Mr.. Holmes is vehement in his asser-
ton that the recognition of Carranza
was a false move. He says that in
recognizing the Carranza government
we have recognized something which
does not exist, and that the only soIu-
ton to Mexico s problem is outside
help, or in other words intervention.
When asked, 'Why do the Mexicans
hate the Americanso'' he replied
Largely because of the action-or
lack of it--of the administration

Not for a moment should it be al
lowed to slip the New England mind
that the National dairy show, the
greatest annual event of it's kind in all
the world, is to be held this year in
Springfield, Mass. This annual show
was the means of reviving the dairy
interests of the Middle West, and
there is every reason for believing
that it will have a potent influence in
the same direction in New England
This is the first time that the Ma
tional dairy show win have been held
elsewhere than in Chicago. A dozen
leading cities of the Middle West
made active campaigns to secure il
this year, for all knew its tremendous
value as an agricultural stimulus. The
plea advanced by the New England
interests was that this section needed
the show more than did any of the
others-and that plea had its effect il
bringing the show to Springfield. The

rather stand up close to the cage Ct
the honess and watch the swift, nerv-
Gus play of her back teeth than II
hang around the elephant and see him
swallow long, curly strands of timothy
hay.
The elephant is more intelligent
than he appears to be on the surface,
being in this respect much like some
of our greatest statesmen. A bright,
thoughtful elephant can be trained to
do nearly everything that man does
except drink lemon extract and swear.
When an elephant is taken hold of in
childhood it can be taught the latest
dance steps in a few weeks, which
ought to bring the blush of shame to
the cheeks of middle-aged husbands
j who refuse to learn.
In his wild state the elephant comes
equipped with a pair Of sharp. pryino
tusks. On being captured, however,
these are sawed off and converted into
billiard balls, celluloid piano keys and
mental machinery for bali players. Ths
demand for this machinery is so mucf
great II than the supply that many
players go without any.

All Up for the Sugar Season.
barre Times.l

A Brattleboro farmer has already
made maple sugar from a 1916 run Of
sap. This is, of course, a possibility
due to the freakishness of nature dur
ing the balmy month of January. 1t is
to be hoped that his avidity for max,
ing sugar viii not have leaked out by
the time the real sugaring season comes
IN Vermont We hope also that an I'M
usually large number of Vermont farm
ers will be equally as prepared for
earnest operations just as soon as the
weather really permits. Under the i'm
petus of the publicity work of the
state department of publicity there is
an increasing demand for Vermont ma
pie sugar and syrup, and the prospects
are that every pound or gallon of
standard product can be disposed of.
Those sugar makers who have not com
menced to get their frewood ready
ought to do so at once, or as soon as
the hauling conditions will permit. All
up for big sugar season IN Vermont!

Good News for st. Johnsbury.

(Rutland News.)
The proposed purchase of the E.
& T. Fairbanks company business at
st. Johnsbury by the western eonnec
tiop of that concern, the Fairbanks
Morse company of Chicago, it seems
likely will appeal to the stockholders
of the big Vermont scale manufacture
ing institution. The western corpora
ton, with a rating of $S,000,000, Of
fers three shares for one to the stock
holders of the St Johnsbury company.
The price of the stock therefore jumps
from 1925 per share to $500 per share.
1t is satisfactory to Vermonters to
know that it is the purpose of the
Fairbanks Morse company to con
tinue the manufacture of scales and
other products and to materially in
crease the output at st. Johnsburv.
The Chicago company is an off-shoot
of the st. Johnsbury enterprise, and
it is case of a son outgrowing his
parent.

A Loss to Leland and Gray.

1t is a distinct loss to Leland and
Gray seminary in Townshend that it
must be deprived of the services of
Principal Guy w. Powers because Mr..
Powers is not member of the Baptist
church and, therefore, the school would
rot be following cut the conditions of q
recent bequest of $4,000 in retaining a
non-Baptist as the head of the school
Admittedly Mr.. Powers has done SPLEEN
non-Baptist as the head of the school
and was given promise of even greater
development. Yet he is not a Baptist
and must go. Such a policy of school
management is extremely narrow and

White Pine Blister Rust.
Manchester N H Union

N-hdnCuSSltT, N. IL, Ou1Ou.J
Events prove that close observers of
forest conditions, including Professor
Walter O'Kane of New Hampshire
college, were not a whit premature in
the warning they issued some months
ago concerning the menace of the
white pine blister rust The author
tiles of the state agricultural depart
ments of New Hampshire, Massachu-
sets, Connecticut, Vermont and New
York have jointly and severally mott
fed congress, through Senator CALM
ger, that unless the federal govern
ment can find a way to cooperate
with the state officials in this matter,
the white pine in the states mentioned
valued in the aggregate at $751;
000,0 00-is in danger of utter destruc-
tion. The senior senator from New
Hampshire is leaving no stone I'M
turned in his efforts to secure the nee
essary federal cooperation, and it is
gratifying news that the economic ap-
preparation of $4,000 asked by the de-
partment of agriculture at Washing
ton for this purpose will probably be
included in the deficiency appropria-
tion bill.
1t can not come too soon. Three
districts in New Hampshire, nine in
Vermont, six in Massachusetts, fifteen
in New York and two in Connecticut
are affected. Already the disease
has killed many of the smaller trees,
up to eighteen feet in height, and has
attacked the largest white pines in
the five states. Whatever is to be
done must be done quickly, if the
spread of the trouble is to be averted
and a valuable variety of timber is to
be saved

Champion Potato Grower.
{ Rutland News.)

A high school boy, and his name is
Roy Wilcox, of the Georgia shore,
Franklin county, has shown the posi-
bilities in potato raising in Vermont.
In a contest conducted during the
past season, the result of which has
just been announced, the young man
raised 80 bushels and 81 pounds of
tubers on one-eight of an acre. The
production of Vermont potato fields,
could it be raised to this standard
nearly $50 bushels to the acre, would
multiply many fold the value of the
crop, and it would seem that what one
has done others may do.
