STAR TWIRLERs OUT
OF CHARMED CIRCLE.
johnson and Alexander Have Never
Pitched No Hit Game.

Two of the greatest pitchers in
baseball never have had the honor
of entering the select circles of no.
hit fame. They are Walter johnson
of the Washington Americans and
Grover Alexander of the Philadelphia
Nationals. Eddie Plank of the st.
Louis Americans, one of the greatest
southpaw twiriers of all time, like
wise never has pitched a no-hit game.
Very few no-hit games are staged
in the two minor leagues, still it is
surprising that pitchers of such class
with years of service in the big
show have been unable to go through
nine innings without a hit being made
off their deliveries.
All have neared their goal many
times but always some opponent
nicked them for a safe tap which
shattered Their hopes.
They are credited with many one
hit and two-hit games.

SHOW THE
PURPOSE OF BERLIN

WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES in
THE FIELD, April 27.-"Germany's ev-
ident intention of trying for short,
sharp, decisive struggle" as chronicled
by neutral observers in Berlin, Is
daily making itself visible in black
and white out here. Here is an ex-
tract from captured letter, dealing
with recruiting.
There is a general clearance now;
every one who can move his legs
is passed fit for service in the field.
Everybody is now being called up.
Even those who at first were declared
cutie unfit have all been taken"
| The reason for this levee en- masse
seems to be indicated in the following
letter, also taken from captured Ger
mans: "ALTONIA--Want IS now only
beginning-the hunt for coal and the
shortage of food Every day. turnips,
| not even cabbage. A serious epidemic
of virulent smallpox (Schwarze
Pocken) has broken out in Hamburg

tenth in the queue. Suddenly the wo-

beasts of prey and splinters of glass

batch and secured half loaf-the
very last piece of bread"
Many out here, with such documents
constantly being brought to their at
tention are of the opinion that the
domestic crisis in Germany is re-
sponsible for her defiance of the Unit
ed States and the world at large. They
say it is hunger asserting itself, empty

turn HAIR DARK
With sage TEA
Grandma Kept Her Locks Dark, Glossy
and Youthful With a Simple Mix
ture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth
er's recipe, and folks are again using
it to keep their hair a good, even color
which is quite sensible, as we are liv-
ing in an age when a youthful appear
ance 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, improved fly the addition or
other ingredients, called ":Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, for
about so cents bottle. 1t is very pop
ular because nobody can discover it
has been applied. Simply moisten your
comb 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 de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur compound, is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications it also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appearance
of abundance which is so attractive.
This ready-to-use preparation is a de-
lightful toilet requisite for those who
desire a more youthful appearance. It
is not intended for the cure. mitigation
or prevention of disease.

suggestion of the most suitable name

But the further decision was made,
however, that it be given Spanish
spelling and pronunciation on the last
syllable, making the actual name OF
the pavilion.
The three joint winners in the con-

suggested the name "Tybreeze," are

HYsrERIA AND FOOD PRICES.

Hysteria undoubtedly figured largely
in the rocketing of prices on all food
supplies.
The government in it's we'll meant
efforts to stimulate production along
all lines, has conducted a vast advertis-
ing campaign on the scarcity of food.
1t aroused America to the necessity of
increasing production, but it also pre-
cipttated almost a food panic. Now
that the hysteria has been squeezed
out of the markets, prices are react
ing almost as rapidly as they scared
The action Of the government in asking
the Allies to sell their future delivery
contracts will break the corner in grain.
With the new crops coming along and
the certainty that no real famine
threatens the country, normal prices
seem due to return, and the govern
ment's task through the proposed food
control department then win be to
keep them normal. Proper buying
methods and sane apportionment Of ex-
ports will go far toward doing this.
Meanwhile the consumer views the
daily break of fifty cents in the -four
market with far more equanimity
than he did the daily increase.

GAME AS FOOD SUPPLY.

Unless all signs fail. Uncle Sam is
est sources of food supply the country
boasts-its wild game, and one Of the
war measures to be taken by the gov
eminent. in all probability, will be a
closed season on all game birds and
animals. 1t is a step that should he
taken.
In northern Minnesota and North
Dakota, the automobile has almost
exterminated the partridge and the
prairie chicken. Ducks are still fairly
plentiful, but no such fiocks as are
remembered by the pioneers. are seen.
No hunting ground is too remote for
the automobile to reach, and the birds
have few sanctnaries. Minnesota has
already taken steps to prevent the
absolute extinction of the partridge, by
declaring a closed season for three
years. North Dakota has shortened the
season on chicken shooting and de-
creased the bag limit. Absolute pro-
lection OF all kinds of game birds and
animals for one or two years would
permit them to greatly increase in
numbers, and would, without any effort
on the part of the residents of these
two states, replenish a great food
storehouse which would be available
in time of need.
The saving of ammunition would
also be an item worth considering.
