Shudderinq.

Shuddering is done by clenching the jaws and running a qUiver down the spine. It is important to be able to Shudder well at time when there is so much news of a shuddering nature. A few moments spent each day in the simpler exercises of shuddering will soon make you proficient. Compose your features and sit quietly for a while. Then think of something hOr- ribIe. You may not be able to shud- der at first, but in time you will find you can shudder at any length on slight provocation. It is always embarras- sing to be unable to shudder well when you are giving a sympathetic ear to friends account of his Operation.-De- troit Journal.

Appeal to Golfers.

An unusual way of asking golfers for their cooperation in keeping their course in good condition and in re- training from undesirable practices is employed by a Cincinnati golf club, which has placed a large sign beneath the bulletin board on the first tee of the course. It reads: Treat the course as though you loved it." Every player is sure to see the request be- fore starting over the links. A similar sign has been put up at the tenth hole.

Secret of Beautiful World.

tain small town was so much more at tractive than most of it's kind. "There are no fine buildings" she said, mo beautiful scenery, no parks. "No," said another, who also was familiar with the town, but everybody has q little garden, and takes such good care of it." That is the secret of making this world beautiful, for each of us to take good care of our own little garden plot.-Girls' Companion.

A Work for Patriotic
Organizations }azs

Patriots and patriotic organizations
all over the country should petition
the President and Congress to forbid
the sale of Stoddard's lectures ON the
United States. There has not been
greater traitor since Benedict Arnold
than Stoddard.
The following, copied from the
Montgomery, Ala, Advertiser, speaks
| for itself:
A Renegade American.
Among the hate-mongers working
for Germany is John l.. Stoddard,
American lecturer and author. For
nearly twenty years the Stoddard lee
lures in the principal American cities,
put steady stream of gold into Stod-
dards purse. After acquiring indie
pendence he left us and bought a cou-
pie of European homes, one at Lake
Como, Italy, and the other at Meran,
Tyrol, Austria. He is of Massachus-
etts stock, Yale graduate.
Recently Stoddard, who is some
thing of a poet, as we'll as lecturer
and author of prose literature, pre-
pared a poem which in violence and
filth is unapproached by any anti
American literature we have seen. His
poem has been widely circulated in
! Germany as a part of that country's
ca,nuaign of hate against us. Blood
Traffickers" is the title of this
amazing diatribe. The poem in full
| follows:
towards, who kill three thousand
miles away,
See the long lines Of shrouded forms
increase!
Yours is this work, disguise it as you
may:
But for your greed the world were
now at peace.
Month after month your ruthless
chimneys roar
Slaughter your object, and your mo-
tive gain;
Took at your money-it is wet with
gore!
Nothing can cleanse it from the
loathsome stain.
You who prolong this hideous hell
on earth,
Making a by-word of your native
land,
Stripped of your wealth, how paltry
is your worth!
See how men shrink from contact
with your hand!
There is pollution in your blood
smeared gold,
There is corruption in your pact
with Death,
There is dishonor in the lie, oft-told,
OF your Humanity" 'Tis empty
breath.
What shall it profit you to heap on
high,
Makers of orphans! few millions
more,
When you must face them-those you
caused to die,
And God demand of you to pay your
score?
He is not Knocked; His vengeance
doth not sleep;
His cup Of wrath He lets you slow
ly fill;
What you have sown, that also shall
you reap;
Gods law is adamant-"Thou shalt
not kill"
Think not to plead 81 did not act
alone"
Customs allows it," and "My dead
were few"
Each hath his quota; yonder are your
own!
See how their fleshless fingers
point at you, at you!
You, to whose vaults this wholesale
murder yields,
Mere needless increments Of ghoul-
ish gain,
Count up your corpses on these blood
soaked fields!
Hear q till your death 4 +
your victims means Of pain!
Then, when at night you, sleepless,
fear to pray,
Watch the thick, crimson stream
draw near your bed,
And Shrek with horror, till the dawn
of day
Shall find you raving at your heaps
Of dead!

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If MIXED WITH SULPHUR 1T
DARKENS SO NATURALLY
NOBODY CAN TELL.

The oldtime mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair a good, even
color which is quite sensible, as we
are living in an age when a youthful
appearance is Of the greatets adyan-
tage.
Nowadays, though, we don'J have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home,
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product, improved by the addition Of
other ingredients, called "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" for
about so cents a bottle. Ii is very pop
ular because nobody can discover it
has been applied. Simply mCisten your
comb or a soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a 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 lusre and appearance
Of abundance which is so attractive.
This ready-to-use preparation is de-
lightful toilet requisite for these who
desire a more youthful appearance. 1t
is not intended for the cure, mitigation

WASHINGTON SAYS DRAFTING
BEGIN SATURDAY, JULY Hath

According to information coming
from Washington, the machinery was
set in motion to draft the new army
of 100000 Saturday. 1t is said that
something over 100000 names will be
drawn in order that they may be sure
of the 100000 as it is expected a GER
tain percentage will be exempted for
one cause and another
Capt. G. V. Heidi, in charge of re-
cruiting in Georgia, has estimated
that about two out OF every three ELI
gible for draft service will be taken
His figures issued a few days ago are
as follows:
Total registration for georgia, 5000
60 per cent of this number married
and probably exempt, 100000
Total unmarried, 100000.
Of this number the following will
probably be exempt on account of
reasons mentioned:
Dependent families per cent, 5000.
Farmers 80 per cent, 10000
Munition workers per cent, 5000.
Physical disability per cent, $1,000
Total available for selection $4,000.
Total to be selected from Georgia,
$4,000.
Total not to be selected, 10000.
The local exemption board for the
army draft has completed it's work in
the matter of REMEMBERING registra-
ton cards and making six lists of
those registered with the new county
numbers given on them. All the reg
istration cards in possession of the
local board were given a new mum.
ber
To clear up misunderstanding, Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder issued
a statement today explaining that I'M
der the regulations for the national
army draft claim for exemption may
be filed not only by the registered per-
son himself, butt by members of his
family or any third party with knoWl-
edge of the facts in his case.
1t was also announced that mem
bers of the house and senate military
committee will witness the drawing
to select men for the national war
army. Secretary Baker said that he
or some other official of the war de-
partment and not President Wilson, as
has been suggested, would make the
drawing. The secretary lunched at
the white house today and is under
stood to have discussed arrangements
for the draft with the president No
date will be announced until all ex-
emption boards have been organized.
officials hoped this may be by the end
of this week.
