over a dozen counties. have organized
for work on the roads on state Good
Roads Day" on Thursday May %, and
probably twenty more will. do so with
in a week according to word which has
reached the offices of the State High
way Department. These organizations
are for the purpose of systematizlng
the work so that places complained of
on roads may be, improved or bad
grades removed, wagons and tools be
distributed and meals and wa
ter provided. In some of the central
counties offers of hundreds of men to
go to any part of their townships have
been received and farmers have agreed
to devote all time to roads and to let
farming go on that day. Another fea-
ture of the reports made regarding the
popular interest is that offers of cash
have been made by persons who will be
unable to leave business or work on
the day and the money will be de-
voted to purchase of materials. rent
of tools or teams or labor.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
TO keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrac-
tive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a 50-cent bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" which
darkens the hair so naturally, so even
ly, that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it
an appearance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful ap-
pearance to the hair. 1t is not intend
ed for the cure, mitigation or preven-
ton of disease.

committee was named to take charge
of the work in Columbia county on
Statewide Good Roads Day." ]. Grier

1t was reported to the committee
that last year 700 persons were at
work on the roads on state Good
Roads Day." and this with no organi-
zation in the county. It is intended
that the results this year will place
Columbia county second to none in the
State, in proportion to the population.
The activities of the organization have
begun and every resident of the coun-
ty who has equipment has been asked
to contribute towards the success of
the day. The efforts of the committee
are directed to securing teams and
machines for use on the roads, for
materials and equipment, for labor and
for the transportation of workmen to
the scene. Auto owners and automo-
bile dealers throughout the county
have been asked to cooperate and
they have signified their intentions of
so doing.
Enthusiasm for Good Roads Day"

though once on the best of terms with
Rasputin. he finally turned against
him and denounced him as welding
a criminal influence and undertook to
warn the imperial court of this dan
gerous fiend." The result of this at
tack on the Emperor's favorite was
that Heliodorus himself was cast into
monastery prison from which he
was released only after having re-
nounced the profession of monk.
In order to avoid further persecution
he escaped to Sweden in a woman's
garb in August, 1914, and Is now liv-
ing quietly in Christiania.
According to Hellodorus, a repre-
sentative of the Russian Minister of
the Interior, Khovstoff, arrived in
Christiania last January and proposed
that Heliodorus become party to a
conspiracy to assasSinate the mystic
monk. Khovstoff's envoy is said to
have declared that Rasputin was
working for a separate peace between
Germany and Russia and being
bought by wealthy Jews, had secured
for the Jews great contracts on sup
plies for the army"
Hired Murderers
IIeliodorus, desiring to learn the
whole plot, posed as willing to enter
the conspiracy and signed contract
to engage a band of murdererS for
sixty thousand rubles. One of the
ladies in waiting at the court was to
be a party to the conspiracy and give
the signal by telephone for Rasputin
to come to the court. An automobile
was to be in readiness for Heliodorus
to escape as soon as he had seen his
hired murderers execute the plot. 1t
was a part of the bargain, it is de-
clared by Heliodorus, that the minis
ter of the interior, Khovstoff, would
procure an amnesty so that Heliod-
orus could return to Russia.
Empress Knew of Plot
On February IL Heliodorus received
telegram saying the $4,000 rubles
were in a bank ready to be paid as
soon as the plot was carried out. He
then decided to reveal the whole af-
fair and sent his wife with a written
account of the plot to Petrograd
where she delivered it to the Empress
The later sent word that she had al
ready known the details of the af-
fair. 1t seems that the mistress of
Rschievisky, the agent sent to Chris
tiania by Khovstoff, had betrayed the
conspirators. Minister Khovstoff was
forced to resign, but according to
Heliodorus, who has laid the whole
story bare to the Norwegian public,
conditions at the Imperial court are
such that nothing but a revolution can
clear the air.

Say There Is Spy Craze in Bull

The Hague, May 12.-Dr. Charles
Pancoast of Philadelphia. and DR.. Mo-

The Hague after 16 months during
which they have been engaged in sur
gical work in the Hungarian and Bull
garian armies. They were the last
American physicians to leave Bulgaria

of New York. who was detained in

DR.. Pancoast says spy craze is
rampant in Bulgaria, that all Ameri-
cans there are subject to suspicion
and that therefore life there is most
unpleasant. He said it is evident
that the Germans do not want Ameri-
cans in Bulgaria.
How thoroughly Bulgaria is under
German domination, he declares. is
shown by the fact that the country
virtually has been denuded OF food
stuffs by the Germans.
