RECIPE FOR GRAY HAIR.

To half pint of water add oz. Bay Rum, 8 small box of Barbo Compound, and 4 oz. of glycerine. Apply to the hair twice 8 week until it becomes the desired shade.

PASSED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE
Party Lines in Congress Were ObIiter-
ated When Naval Measures Came
Up for Action

Washington, Feb. Speaker Clark
and Republican leader Mann fought
side by side in the house today for
adequate national defense With party
lines thus obliterated, two navy meas
ures passed without dissenting vote.
One, to provide for adding 800 mid
shipmen to the entering class at An
napolis next July, passed, 173 to O.,
and the other, to equip navy yards for
construction of battleships, numbers
f3 and A, passed without a roll call.
Mr.. Mann tried to put the anti-pre-
paredness advocates on record by CALI
ing division on the naval academy
bill but there were no negative re-
sponSes.
The appearance of Speaker Clark
on the floor to champion preparedness
measures aroused wide interest Ru-
mors persisted that he would take ac-
tive charge of the fight to increase
the army and navy. Majority Leader
Kitchin having joined the opposition.
Immediate improvement of the navy
by designing new battleships along
the lines of the best now in use, dOub-
ling the membership of both Annap-
oils and West Point, creation of many
additional regiments for the army and
short term enlistments to produce a
reserve, were among suggestions made
by the speaker. He said he expected
to discuss the subject of preparedness
generally soon.
Mr.. Mann reiterated his previous
pleas for larger army and navy and
aided in maneuvering the bills to pas
sage.
This is not the time for crimina-
ton and recrimination," said he. 'It
is not the time to find fault with that
which has been. 1t is the time for all
to join hands for that which may
come
The debate went far afield from the
measure under consideration, extend
ing to the general subject of military
preparedness. The unusual sight of
the speaker and the minority leader
battling together for administration
measures while the majority leader
sa silently in the back of the house,
attracted crowds to the galleries and
members rushed to the floor from
their offices and committee rooms.
Mr.. Clark urged haste in getting
new battleships into commission. He
asked Chairman Padgett of the naval
committee why it would not be a good
plan to pattern the two battleships,
Nos. 43 and A, after the best United
States ship afioat and get them COM
pleted quickly.

morrow or next day, and it. is under
stood the main features of the bills

in which it is expected they will re-
ceive virtually the unanimous APPROX
al of the committee.
Senate in the Lead.
The Senate committee already has
concluded its hearings on army bills
and will take up the work of drafting
its proposals for the Senate early next
week There also the general outline
of the plan to be recommended has
crystalized in the minds of the mem
bers.
The bills of the two houses, it is
expected, will differ radically and the
final legislation will be worked out as
a compromise in conference.
Progress also was made today on
navy legislation, the measures paving
the way for construction of battleships
43 and A at navy yards and providing
for three hundred additional midship-
men in the July class at Annapolis
being passed by the Senate. They
passed the House today and lack only
the Presidents signature to become
law. Speaker Clark, in line with his
recent speech in the House advocating
chat the personnel at both Annapolis
and West Point be doubled, introduced
a bill today to make such an increase
in the number of cadets at the mill
tary academy.
Hay Voices Opposition.
1t was evident that Representative
Hay has not been swayed from his
opposition to Secretary Garrison's pro-
posaI for a continental army, which
the President warmly advocated in his
recent preparedness campaign trip to

Birds increase purina War.

Wild birds which were formerly
shot as game have been increasing
rapidly since the war in France, Bel
GUM 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
game would not be tolerated Ordi-
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 In
convenience to Ascertain Time.

On one of the recent stormy nights
a man was fastening 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 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 hts 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 the
light would shine upon it, he scrutin-
lied it an instant, and said:
"Yesi"
Then he passed on without another
word.
