DARkEN GRAY HAIR, ~
 LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens So Naturally That Nobody
 Can Tell.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre or when it fades, turns gray, dull and ifeless, is caused by lack of sulph- UT in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix ture improved by the. addition of other ingredients bN asking at any drug store for 8 bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" which darkens theN hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. You just damp en a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, talk ing one small strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears: but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after few ap- plicationS. it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an ap- pearance of abundance.
 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound is delightful toilet requisite to impart color and youthful ap- pearance to the hair. It is not in tended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease

SHOULD MOBILIZE INDUSTRIAL ART


 The December meeting of the Art Association was held Monday even ing at the home. of the Misses Lucas on Sachem street. with the president, Mrs. William B. Birge, in the chair.
 After the regular business reports, Miss Nancy Lucas spoke briefly on the progress of the Kate Morse me- norial tablet. which it is planned, will be unveiled in the spring. Three res- ignations were accepted and one nesS member admitted to the association. It was voted that the meetings should be held regularly each month, instead of emitting those in January and Feb- ruary, as had been previously plan ned.
 The evening was then given up to Miss Alice Cogsweil, who read from current magazines several interesting articles On the mobilization of ATneri- can art and the need of the founding of technical schools in our country.
 Some Recent Prints, an article in late International Studio, written and illustrated with his own draw ings by Captain w. E. Hankey of the Royal Engineers, furnished strfk- ing examples of the art work of the war. His iliustrat tions, featuring as they do. the refugee type among the French and Flemish peasantry, pos sess a pictorial appeal something be- ycnd mere artistic beauty. They are remarkable studies, which Rembrandt himself would not have disdained, of pathetic old women and children. Cap tain Hankey evinces a wonderfully sensitive feeling for landscape. and is one of the finest opponents of color tintS in the art world
 Mobilizing the Art Industries, by Richard F. Bach of Columbia Uniyer- sity, written for the American Maga- zine of Art, demonstrated many req s6ne why the industrial arts of our country should be concentrated Tle real benefit in industrial art is the factor of marked improvement grow ing out. of good design. We have re- Led too much heretofore on the ma chine, which is only glorified tool, not to be confused with the human brain. Every improvement in ma chinery has pushed craftsmanship in- to the background: it is high time that conditions are changed. We must revive our ideas, of craftsmanship then harness the machine to the mind. There should be proper CO., ordination of machine power with handcraft design; this will be the first step towards mobilizing industrial art.
 We find ourselves at present the greatest industrial nation without any

5,965 ACCIDENTS THROUGH
 PUBLIC SERVICE CORPORATIONS

According to the seventh annual re- port of the public utilities commission filed on Monday with Governor Hoi- comb there were during the last fiscal year 5,965 accidents connected with the operation of public service corpora tions in the state. There were POI persons killed and 6,143 injured
 The accidents were divided as fol- lows: Express corporations 24, gas 720, railroads 3,190, street railway 2,01S, telegraph and telephone 12, water 1. The fatalities occurred with corpora tions as follows: Gas and electric companies ', railroads 135, street rail- ways 59.
 There were 1Se public service cor porations in the state, IS of which were not operated. Twenty seven were electric, Il gas. 14 gas and electric, ? express, railroads, 20 street railways 4 telegraph, 10 tenephone and 90 water companies.
 The commission states that the freight and passenger service of rail- roads were rendered under adverse circumstances and were very poor, but that considering the conditions with which the companies had to con- tend it was remarkably good and was accepted by the public. On ac- count of war conditions no attempt was made to eliminate grade crossings during the year. The report states that the amount of money invested in street electric railways in this state was $100,0o0,000. The companies were in a financially unsound condition and that for the efficient operation oi the properties sufficient capital can not be attracted. During the past two years none of the electric street rail way companies has been able to pay dividends or to meet operating ex- penses and fixed charges.
 Concerning competition with tht companies by automobile and jitney service, the report says somethine ought to be done to equitably appor. tion the burdens and to definitely de. fine the competitive rights.

 status of industrial art. America must readjust herself and place art on its war footing. There should be cam paign of education to enlist public in- terest, industrial art schools, furniture, design, lace, pottery and textiles This educational campaign should be begun at once if the establishing of Ameri canization in design is to be accom- plished.
 An open letter to the art teachers of the country, written for the same magazine by Joseph Pennell, the art ist, showed the crying need, according to this great crttic, of schools to train and fully equip an art student in ail branches of his work. Mir Pennell claims that the only art adequately taught in America is architecture.
 American illustrations and engray- ings, so he says, are commonp.ac ce. simply because there are so few, really practical schools, or instructors to teach in them. Illustrations look as though they were made after an art formula as taught by a correspondence school. Today the only practical schools of illustration are newspaper offices. America led the world in en- graving and Illustrating twenty-five years ago but now is entirely oas of 1ks ltApQBA lLG1G IGfGI WAS ouCtl sJ chance for the artists as today. There are 54,S1l artists and designers in this country, with practically not more than thirty four who can do adequate work as teachers. We must remedy this by establishing technical art schools as they do in Europe-supplying them with teachers who know how to teach The government must be induced to establish training schools for crafts men, or else We shall perish as an artistic nation.
 The instructive evenings reading closed with reply to Joseph Pennelif; letter, written by J. P. Haney, director of fine arts in the New York schools, in which the author places the fault for so much art deficiency, not on the teachers ability, but on the federal government, which will not. finance and establish industrial schools. MT Haney claims too that as the. manu- facturers will benefit by any improve ment in design. they should help iound national training schools and pledge themselves to provide openings in their own establishments for the designers and craftsmen who are properly rain ed in such schools Then, and only then, when trade has joined hands with and shown the right tendency tc ! support the proper training of design shall the mobilization of art along in dustrial lines be accomplished ir ] America.

as to Taking of Hostages.

/ That The Germans IN Belgium
mnde use of uomea children, and

raiders from belgian troops is shown
BY tie foHoring testimony gathered
By the committee on public infor-
nation:
Minister Whitlock. in his report OF
September l., 1917, to the secretary oil
states, gives IN instance of the Ger
man practice of seeking protection.
The Germans attacked Hougaerde
or the 18th August; the Belgian troops
were holding the Gette bridge IN the
village. The Germans forced the par
ish priest of Autgaerdrn 10 walk in
front of them as Il shield. As they
npared the harricadc the Belgian sol
diers fired and the priest WAS killed.
After the retreat OF the Belgians the
Germans shot four men, burned 81
houses, and iH0ted 100.
Hugh Gibson. in a Journal From
) Our Legation in Belgium page lao
gives another incident:
Two old priests have staggered in
, to the - legation more dead than
alive. after having been compelled IL
walk ahead of the German troops for
miles us Il SOFT of protecting screen.
J One of them is ill, and it is said that
he may die as ii result of what he has
