Lawd, man, jes had to see my
nanny"
When negroes arrive late at night
they go to the supply department
early in the morning and draw
mess tins before breakfast, and then
to the receiving station. The mess
tin is a dish of aluminium that is
divided in the middle and folds to-
gether, forming a plate and cup
at meal time, and place to carry
knife, fork and spoon when not in
use. The negro is unused to carry
ing this parcel, and the most con-
venient place is underneath his arm.
Thus he carries it into the receiving
station, after stopping to cleanse it
enroute With 100 negroes in the
receiving station, some must wait a
good bit while the others are listed,
card indexed and assigned. The
room is warmed by a large stove,
and a warm negro is a sleepy one.
He mods in the corner, his arm
limbers and kerplunk goes the mess
tin on the floor.
"Oopee" comes from aroused ne
groes in all parts of the room and
the officers cannot suppress smile.
In less than five minutes the ne
groes are drowsy again and another
mess tin falls, this time in an oppo-
site corner.
"Oopee' exclaim the negroes.
And so it goes until the bunch is
assigned to barracks.

IF HAIR IS TURNING

Darken and Beautify
Faded Hair.

That beautiful even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Your hair is your charm. 1t makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray or streaked, just an application or
two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its
appearance a hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mixture;
you can get this famous old recipe i'm
proved by the addition of other ingredi-
ents for so cents large bottle. all ready
for use. 1t is called Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound. This can always be
depended upon to bring back the natural
color and lustre of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it dark
ems so naturally and evenly that nobody
can tell it has been applied. You simply
dampen sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through the hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morning
the gray hair has disappeared, and after
another application it becomes beauti-
fully dark and appears glossy and lus-
trous. This readyto-use preparation is
a delightful toilet requisite for those who
desire dark hair and a youthful appear

WIDOW PoISoNs SELF AND
THREE SMALL CHILDREN

Jonesboro, Nov. 6.-Mrs. Cora
Churchwell, widow, is dead, and her
three children, aged from one to four
years, are dangerously i'll from taking
paris green poison early today The
woman said that the family had be-
come i'll from eating poisoned sar-
dimes, but shortly before she died
confessed to neighbOrs and physic-
ians that she had taken a quantity
of the paris green, after which she
gave each of her small children a
large dose She said she had been
suffering from a severe headache
and did not realize what she was
doing
When neighbors entered the home
and found the woman in a semi
conscious condition, they imm ediately
summoned physicians Mrs. Church
well told the physicians they had
eaten some sardines and believed
that they were poisoned. Antidotes
were administered for ptomaine
poison, but the woman gradually
grew worse. A saucer of paris green
was found In the house and the ply
sicians questioned Mrs Churchwell.
She still denied that she had poison
ed herself and children, but Just be-
fore she died admitted that she
had drank the paris green and had
given some of the poison to each of
her small children. Physicians said
tonight that the children are out of
danger.
The woman's husband died very
suddenly about year ago.
