Had a Good Voice.

Zenatello, the tenor, like all noted
opera singers, is besieged by all sorts
of people with requests to hear voices.
But he has an extraordinary sense of
humor. One day lady asked him to
hear her daughter. He and his wife,
Maria Gay, heard her sing Butterfly"
and it was difficult for them to refrain
from laughing at the earnestuess of the
girl. The mother asked Zenatello for
his opinion and he asked, "Do you real
ly want the truth?" The mother said
she did. "Then l advise your daugh-
ter never to sing again." The mother
was indignant, but the daughter said ::
81 am sorry you think that, but l am
really obliged for the truth, because it
will save me years of wasted time"
Zcnatello smiled and said Il told you
that to see whether YOU would become
angry. You have talent and very
promising voice. Work and never
waste your time on anger and you will
succeed"

Prepare to EIy.

There is no secret that in a vigorous
way the development of the aeroplane
on an extensive scale and with view
to its general use both for passenger
and freight service is quietly proceed
ing says Leslie's. There are those
who do not hesitate to predict that
within the next decade, and perhaps
within five years the aeroplane will be
in common use and will be brought
within the reach of men of moderate
means, so as to afford them a ready
vehicle of transportation from their
city to their summer homes. The in
tercsting fact is noted by President
Edward NJ. Hagar of the Wright com
pany that he has recently received a
request for estimates on ten aero
planes, each of three-tOn freight capac-
lily, with which valuable ore from an
inaccessible mine is to be carried from
the mountains to convenient ship
ping point. The part that the aero
plane is playing in the great European
war astoniShes all observers, and must
inevitably lead at the close of the war
to wider utilization of the aeroplane
in peaceful pursuits.

.DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR DARK
EMS so NATURALLY THAT MOI
BODY CAN TELL.

Hair that loses It's color and lustre,
or when 1t fades. turns gray, dull and
;lifeless, Is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made up
a mixture OF Sage Tea and Sulphur ia
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 attractive. use
only this old time recipe.
I!Sdays we get this famous mixture
improved by the addition Of other in
gradients by asking at any drug store
for 50-cent bottle Of ''Wyeths Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ms the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell 1t has been
applied. You just dampen a sponge or
soft, brush with It and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at a
time. BY morning the gray hair disap-
pears; but what delights the ladies with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
Is that. besides beautifully darkening
the hair after a few applications, it also
brings back the gloss and lustre and
gives IL an appearance OF abundance.
y Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is a delightful toilet requisite TO impart
color and a youthful appearance to the
hair. It Is not intended for the cure,

Hans REG, naturalixed citizens bu-
reau, German division, OF the demo-
cratic national committee, said:
my dear sir: Not knowing whether
you are under civil service. and not
showing whether 1t would be consist
ent for you TO assist us in the pending
ccmpaign by making some speeches
for us in German, ask you to be kind
enough to advise me by return mail In
regard to 1t. We are badly IN need of
German speakers and would greatly
appreciate If you could make yourself
available to u.s.
Mr.. Bluncken's reply to Mr. Ries
follows:
II should be delighter to help in the
enlightenment of the democratic
masses on the pending issues. should
be especially glad to show them the
following:
How President Wilson, by his vacil-
lating. stupid and tricky diplomacy,
has got us into "a war with Mexico. and
now is trying to get out Of the trouble
he has brought upon us by the sur
render of American interest and honor.
How he has surrendered the inter
ests' of the United States in China to
the intriques Of Japan.
How he has made. preparation for
scuttling the ship In the Philippines by
abandoning the Filipino people to a
clique of Tagalo olgarchs, with the
probable consequence of annexation by
Japan.
How he has been the direct cause of
the capture and subsequent judicial
murder of the Irish hero. Sir Roger
Easement by giving to. the British
government information unlawfully
obtained thru fragrant breach of in
ternational law.
How he is in the habit of insulting
American citizens OF German and Irish
birth or descent by calling them dis
loyal and 'venomous creatures, for
opposing his un-American and I'M
patriotic policies.
How Woodrow Wilson, president OF
1.-THE United States. is justly suspected
Of being one of that small but powerful
group Of disloyalists who wish to cast
dishonor on George washington and
the heroes Of the American revolution
! by the union Of the Anglo Saxon race.
II have no doubt you will be very
glad to have me go on the stump for
your party"
