The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked
and faded hair is grandmother's treat
ment. and folks are again using 1t to
keep their hair a good, even color, which
is quite sensible, as we arc living in an
age when a youthful appearance is OF
the greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though we don't have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use prod
uct called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" for about 80 cents a bottle.
It is very popular because nobody can
discover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair, tax
ing one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur is that, besides beau
tifullv darkening the hair after few
applications, it also produces that soft
hstre and appearance of abundance which
is so attractive: besides. prevents dand-
ruff. itching scalp and falling hair.

Manufacturers OF crmor plate in this country have
a valid right TO object TO government competition. No
private concern of that sort could hope TO stand up
against that form OF competition which would have
behind it all the resources OF the national government
The market for amor plate is exceedingly limited.
The United States Government is the best customer OF
the American pal.s. It follows, therefore, that with
the government manufacturing its own plates. there
would be little excuse for maintaining the private
plants The threat made by the heads Of several of
those private plants that they will be scrapped the
government engages in armor plate manufacture are
doubtless we-founded.

Editorial Opinion
THE CAPTURE OF THE AppAM.

THE CAPTURE OF THE APPAM.
From the Washington Post.
The arrival of the British steamer,
Appam at Hampton Roads in charge Of
a German prize crew arouses the live
liest interest ON account Of the mystery
which surrounded the disappearance OF
the Appam ON January 10. the daring
and resource displayed by the small
German force in capturing the vessel
and the seaman ip exhibited in direct
ing the vessel across the Atlantic
through the network OF British patrols.
Ii it be true that the capture was made
by a German cruiser which ran the
gauntlet of the British North Sea fleet
and is now raiding in the Atlantic inter
est is still intensified because of the eN-
pectation that other thrilling tales will
be told before the raider is oycrhauled.
There is something in the career Of
the Emden and in the exploit concern
ing the Appam which lightons the SOM
breness of the war. The taking of des-
pcrate chances in an open fight, the win
ming of victory und,r great odds, the
risking of life and treasure in daring
undertakings appeal TO the fighting
blood of all men. Sympathies for this
or that nation are suspended while the
tale of individual bravery is told Skill
is appauded bravery admired and re-
sourcefulness envied, even by the en-
emy. Such warfare as this retains some
thing of the old knightly character that
differs so greatly from the subterranean
and poison gas slaughterings of modern
land war.
Whatever becomes of the Appam she
has furnished an agreeable diversion
from the all too common recital of
trench warfare and air raids upon de-
fenseless cities. Her passengers and
crew are safe from harm. and her Ger
man prize crew are evidently brave
and generous fellows. The public waits
with zcst further particulars of the re-
marllablc epi ode.

BRIGHTER CHILDREN

Children are probably brighterto-day
than a generation ago-but are they
stronger That's grave question.
So many pinched faces, dulled eyes
and languid feelings make US wonder
if they will ever grow into robust,
healthy men and women.
If your children catch colds easily,
are tired when rising, lack healthy
color, or find studies difficult, give
them SCOTS Emulsion for one month
to enrich their blood and restore the
body-forces to healthy action.
SCOTS Emulsion is used in private
schools. 1t is not a "patent medicine,
simply highly concentrated oil-food,
sv;tiout alcohol or harmful drugs. 1t
cannot harm; it improves blood; Il bene-
fits lungs and strengthens the system.

Careless Use of
Soap Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, ff
YOU want to keep your hair looking it's
best. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkalf. This
dries the scalp. makes the hair brittle.
and ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use Is Just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless) and is better
than the most expensive soap Or an.
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub 1t
in. 1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather. which -inses out easily,
removing every particle Of dust dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and 1t leaves
the scalp soft. and the hair fine and
silky, bright. lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy, It's very cheap, and a
few ounces will supply every member
of the family for months.
