One soldier told me today OF
the "strangest sight he ever

I'VE have discovered now that
TIE Germans on our front don't
like to attack us, he said. "Un-

man officers climbed out OF their
trenches. The German soldiers
followed. We didn't fire. But
we likewise hoisted our red flag.
When the Germans saw we were
deliberately withholding our hre
from their ranks, under the same
red fac as our own forces, the
soldiers themselves stopped still,
and turned back to their own
trenches. They abandoned their
officers. The officers stood there
in no man land alone, urging
them to attack, but without avail.
FINALLY they too went back-dls-
o1,stedlv. Not a shot had been
fred . not a German soldier harm
ed in that death territory.
However, we mistrust red
flags borne by Germans and Aus
t,;ars Now we fire with all our
strength on such approaching en-
envy forces.

GRAY HAIR BECOMES
DARK AND BEAUTIFUL
Try Grandmother Old Favorite
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea
and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and lustre
to the hair when faded, streaked or
gray. Years ago the only way to get this
mixture was to make it at home, which
is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" You will get a large bottle
of this old time recipe improved by the
addition of other ingredients for about
SO cents. Everybody uses this prepara
ton now, because no o. can possibly tell
that you darkened your hair, as it does
it so naturally and evenly. You 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 disappears, and after another appli-
cation or two, your hair becomes beauti-
fully dark, thick and glossy and you
look years younger. Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound is delightful toilet
requisite. 1t is not intended for the cure.

UTILITY COAT.
Economical Use of Fats
From Meat Trimmings

Much fat may be saved by home rem
dering of the trimmings from fat meat
The following method of rendering
fats, found to be very satisfactory in
the laboratory of the Office of home
economics, United States department
Of agriculture, may be applied in the
home: The fat is cut fine with an
ordinary household meat chopper or
sausage grinder and is then heated in
double boiler until completely melt
ed. The melted fat is then strained
through rather thick cloth-medium
fine huckaback, for instance-to re-
move the finely divided bits of tissue
After the fat is rendered it must
usually be clarified. A fairly success
full household method for clarifying
fats is as follows: Melt the fat with
at least an equal volume Of water and
heat for short time at a moderate
temperature, with occasional stirring
Let the mixture cool, remove the lay
er OF fat and scrape off any bits of
meat and other material which may
adhere to the underside Rendering
or clarifying fat with milk gives quite
satisfactory results in modifying odors
and favors. The procedure is as fol-
lows: To two pounds of fat Qinely
chopped if unrendered) add one-half
pint Of milk preferably sour). Heat
the mixture in a double boiler until
rendered or thoroughly melted, stir
well and strain through fairly thick
cloth. When cold the fat forms hard,
clean layer, and any dark material ad-
herring to the underside of the fat
may be scraped off. Sour milk, being
coagulated, is preferable to sweet milk,
since the curd remains on the cloth
through which the rendered mixture
is strained and is thus more easily sep
arated from the rendered fat. which
has acquired some of the milk favor
and butter fat.

HUGE WIRE NET FOR
HARB0R PROTECTION
Kept In Position After Nishtfall When
Submarines Can't Ee Detected.

New York. - When the diplomatic
break with Germany came one of the
hurried measures taken to protect New
York harbor from submarine attacks
was the construction of heavy wire
net.
The net, which will be lowered across
the channels entering this harbor and
kept in position after nightfall. when
submarines cannot be detected by spe-
cial methods of observation, is similar
to those which have been used in Eng
lish harbors to keep submarines from
preying on ships riding at anchor.
The heavy wire for the net was OBJ
tanned several weeks ago. More than
two miles Of netting will be used. 1t
will be stretched between Sandy Hook
and Rockaway point, crossing the three
channels = the Swan, the Old Main
Ship channel and the Ambrose channel.
During the day when torpedo boat
destroyers, aeroplanes and a mosquito
fleet, which will be created for the pur-
pose, are sufficient to make it impossi-
BILE for any undersea craft to approach
the harbor undetected, the net will be
lowered so as to permit vessels to pass
through the channels. From sunset to
sunrise the net will be raised to bar all
ingress for submarines at any depth.

aEROPLANES QUICKEST
SUBMARINE ANTIDOTE
Speed and Range of Vision Three
Times That of Destroyer.

Washington.-Rea Admiral Peary,
chairman of the National Aerial Coast
Patrol Commission, when the break
with Germany came emphasized the
bearing of the critical international
situation on the necessity for an ade-
quate aeroplane coast patrol.
"If congress" he went on, should
order the immediate mobilization Of all
air men in the country and the training
of 5000 aviators, should enlist the vari-
Gus aerial organizations and interests
of the country in registering applicants
and should make mandatory the train
ing of $500 aviators in six months and
of the entire 5000 in a year it would
go far toward remedying present de-
feet in our defense which presents pos
sibilities of the gravest danger
1.-THE aeroplane will be the quickest
and cheapest antidote for the subma-
rine. Its speed and range of vision are
three times that of the fastest destroy
ers. 1t can detect and follow a subma-
rine that is entirely invisible to any
surface craft. 1t can destroy the SUBJ
marine when it comes near the surface
One thousand hydroaeroplanes along
our Atlantic coast will double the eff
cheney of our destroyers and mosquito
fleet and increase the value of our coast
