SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't stay Gray! Here's an
Old-time Recipe that Any
body can Apply:

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to it's natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for SO cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound"
you will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
A well-known downtown druggist saws
it darkens the hair 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 your hair, taking one strand at
a time. By morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application or
two, it becomes beautifully dark and
glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite for those
Who desire more youthful appearance.
1t is not intended for the cure, mitigation
or prevention Of disease.

A FIELD FOR CENSORSHIP

A fruitful field for government
censorship would be in the matter
OF the hypocritical, peace talk that
periodically cmanates from Ger
man subsidized correspondents
and is spread broadcast through
out this country. It is a smooth
game Germany is playing. By
creating widespread impression
that she stands ready to consum-
ate peace at any time, she hopes
to place this government in the at
tltude Of obstructing peace. That
the insidious virus is working is
seen on all hands.
1t can not be too strongly i'm
pressed upon our people that
peace is the last thing Germany
deslres-that is, an equitable
peace. Had she really desired
such a peace she would have
made some concrete proposals be-
fore this. Instead Of so desiring.
she hopes to spread dissension
among her enemies that shall.
work to her advantage.
Congress could make no more
cOmmendable move than To estah-
llsh a strict censorship Of fake
German peace proposals.

oAAA " CAiC COWu, CIcIc Is SOmc-
thing wrong, radically wrong.
Strange, isn't it that this town
enjoys the very best people that
could populate any place, and yet
the town has the worst streets of
any town Of it's size in the state.
Why is it,
The answer is not found in the
want of money nor can it be said
that these people are less progress
slve than their neighbors, and in
matters Of charity, and good will
they have no equal What then
is the cause of them being so very
well satisfied with such surround
ings.
If it was any other place than
Scotland Neck it would be called
swamp town, it lies SO close to
water level, and this is all the
more reason why something should
be moving to improve conditions,
now.
We don t want any more bond
issues, says one man, when ap-
preached. Another says it will /
cost too much, and still another
lays it on the war. All the time
they wallow through the mud,
grumbling at the condition, but
not ready to do their part in bet
tering the matter.
The truth Of the matter is the
real big men Of the community
have not given the matter suffi-
clent thought, and have let it drift
along, being busy, as a thing that
'an be done when they can get
o it, and have nothing else to do.

leve them, for we know they tell

Berlin, Saturday. July '. via London. July S.-U nless al present indications fail in the next few days. the German empire is on the eve of a momentous. If not historical parliamentary up- heaval. Developments in the last 4S hours point squarely to a significant realignment of various factions in favor of sweeping electoral and parliam tary reforms, in spite of stubborn re- sistanCe of the guard.
 Although the sessions of the main committee and the constitutional com mittee have been strictly eXecutite. the press comments this morning permit the inference that the discussions of vital subjects of governmental policy frequently reached the boiling point. That they have been of gravely sgnih- cant import is indica ted clearly by the sudden decision to postpone the Satur- day plenary session which was to have marked the opening Of the general de- bate and the expected speech of Chan eel or VOn Bethmann- Hollweg. The absence of the chancellor from the ses- sions of the main and constitutional committees in the last few days has caused general comment in parliImeu- tary circles as exceptional in view Of the confidential character of the dis- cussions.
 Monday will mark the Inaugura lion of what promises to be one of the most memorable parliamentary sessions in the history of the empire
 The chancellor was present today when the committees convened at z o'clock. All the reichstag remained in session in individual groups until late last night.
 The Zeiruns Am AIittag says that a deputation of six members from tine social democratic rkrty in the reich stag called on Chancellor von Beth mann Hollweg ate Friday for the pnr- pose of impressinS the gravity of the situation on him. The delegates iu- sisted that the chancellor make an uu- equiVocal declaration that the govern ment was prepared at any time 10 enter into peace negotiations on the basis of the status quo.
 The deputation also demanded i'm mediate introduction of parlia meutar& and electoral reforms, urging the ap- pointment of leading reiChstag depu- ties to secreta rial and ministerial posts.
 Representatives of the progressive peop.e's party and of the national lih- erals also were in conference with the chancellor.

 The artillery and infantry fighting in eastern Galicia is spreading. The Russian attacking front now has heightened to thirty miles and fight ing is in progress around Halicz. the key to Lemberg, the capital of Galicia
 German efforts to dis1odge the Rus sians from the positions gained at Codov and Koniuchy a week ago have been repulsed by General Brussilof's men. Attacks some miles north and around Brzezany also failed. At Stanislau. south of Halfcz and near Huta, south of Stanis1au, the Rus sians have made attacks but, accord ing to Berlin, they resulted in no gain of ground.
 On the British front in France there have been several small raids, but no infantry engagements of importance. In the air, however, there has been great activity British airrnen broke up German airplane squadrons and carried out successfully raids against German airdromes. depots and troops. Six German machines were driven down, ten out of control and eight British machines are reported as missing.
