The dogs arc the property of Cap

were taken TO Bath, Me-, where the riv-
IF scenes of Uncle Toms Cabin were
photographed. and it was found difficult
to secure accommodations for the ami
mails. They were finally lodged in cells
at the police station where they re-
NAMED until the chase scenes were

Miss Clark plays two roles in Uncle

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy
and youthful with simple mixture
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray, streak
ed and faded hair is grandmother s reel
pc, and folks are again using it to keep
their hair good even color, which is
quite sensible, as we are living In an age
when a youthful appearance 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 product. i'm
proved by the addition of other ingre.
dients, called "Wyeth S Sage and Sui
phur Compound. 1t is very popular
because nobody can discover it has been
applied. Simply moisten your comb or
n soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth s Sage and Sulphur
Compound, is that, besides beautifully
darkcning the hair after few appli-
cations, it also produces that soft lustre
and appearance of abundance which is
so attractive. This ready -to-use prepa.
ration is a delightful toilet requisite for
those who desire a more youthful ap-
pcarance. 1t is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
eaSe.--Adv.

difficulties of movement OF the COM
paratively small Italian force which
carried out the attack. It was pre-
ceded by short artillery action.
The infantry advanced over rocky
and dangerous cliffs in daylight but
the enemy, who was taken by sur
prise and could make little effective
resistance. All the enemy's defen-
sive works were occupied. An Italian
position was established on the crest
Of the mountain and the surrounding
slopes.
The chief effect of the action Is tn
dislodge the Austrians from the domi.
mating height in the center of the
main highway from the mountains
and to give the Italians command
over the heights and approaches. The
result gives great satisfaction espe.
cially as the victory was won on the
very spot where DR.. Cesare Battistl.
deputy from Trento, who went over
to the Italians and other of his
heroic band were captured during the
first offensive. Dr. Battlsti was put
to death by the Austrians on the
charge of treason.

received recently Indicated a plan
similar to the one outlined from OF.

The ambassador said he was con-
