Sage Tea DarkenS
 Hair to Any Shade Don't Stay GrayI Here's an OId-time Recipe that Any
 body can Apply.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded gray hair to its natur- al color dates back to grandmOther's time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attrac- tive. 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 But brewing at home is mussy and out-Of-date. Nowadays. by asking at any drug store for a bottle of Wy eth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" !" you get this famous old preparation, improved by the addition of other in gradients, which can be depended up- on to restore natural color and beauty to the hair
 A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears. and after another ap- plication or two, it becomes beautiful ly dark and glossy.
 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis ease. Adv.

kR!zlNA BOYS DOING BIT iN COTTON FIELDS
 AS GIRLS PICK FRUIT
lspeeIal to The Review,

PHOENIX, Ariz., May 21.-Eighty boys started to work today in the fields of Maricopa county, under Lin E. Orme, state chairman of the boys working reserve. These lads are in two camps, to thin cotton west of this city. Many of the towns of Arizona have reported to Mir. Orme that they have ready boys on call. The boys made good last season and are wanted back again in the fields in which they have worked.
 This year there will be a variation in the service of the girls working reserve, for which arrangements are being made by Mrs. Ernest w. Lewis, under appointment of the state coun- cil of defense. A number of girls all ready are in the apricot orchards north of Phoenix, carried to and from their work daily by automobiles. They are being credited for the work lost in the last days of their high school terms. 4 considerable number will be added as soon as the schools close.

PHOENIX, Ariz.. May 21.-"There is strong evidence to show that the work of the food administration is again being interfered with by pro-German propagandists." declared Timothy A. Riordan, the federal food administra- tor for Arizona, today. At least two rumors having no foundation Of fact have been traced to this source. he says.
 One of these canards is to the effect that milo maize is not a fit article Of diet and cannot be used to take the place of wheat flour. Another is that the government is preparing to requisition all supplies of home can ming
 Nothing could be further from the truth than these misstatements." de clared Mir Riordan. When properly handled, milo maize meal and flour make the finest kind of a substitute for wheat flour and there is nothing in their composition to affect the health of the consumer.

JUNCTION BRIGGS T0

Copper Queen vs. Junction Briggs.
 That is the baseball schedule of the Warern District league for today at Warren park. play called at 5:3O.
 Manager Carl Earthman of the J-B team expects to have some new play CTS on deck for the game and if these arrive in time his club will present a more formidable offensive and defense than in several weeks. A catcher, two pitchers, an infielder and an outfielder have been signed.
 If these men do not arrive today the functions will probably use EasOn on the slab with Wolgamot or Boat catching. The infield will be the same as against the C. x A. a week ago with Berkel, Johnson, Earthman or Snyder and Puryear holding down the four stations. etman, Bejoin, Barn hill. Winstead and Rowland are the teams outfielders while Althaus and Floyd are pitchers.
 The Queen will use Campbell on the slab in all likihood as he defeated the functions in their last meeting. Irions may do the chucking if he feels fit He was formerly in the Western league and Is rated as sweet twirler With this pair, Hanson and Lefty Cothran, who showed Sunday that he is better than ever, the Queen slab corps is strong.
 Manager Fred Carnes will use Whaling on first, will play second himself with Krigbaum at short and Wilson on third. Stadelli, Hesse, and one of the pitchers will care for the outfield jobs, with Lebrandt behind the plate.
 The Queen team looks stronger than at any time this season and played bangup ball Sunday against the C. X A
 Next Sunday the c. & A. and J-B teams will battle.
 Brashear and TonnesOn will umpire today's contest.

AILMENTS or WOMEN

There is no denying the fact that thousands of American women drag along day in and day out suffering with these ailments peculiar to their sex which make life a burden. If women who suffer from dragging down pains, inflammatory, Liberated or catarrhal conditions would only give that greatest of all remedies, Lydia E. Pinkhom's Vegetable compound, a trial, they would readily find relief from such suffering, as the many let ters of commendation constantly be- ing published prove.

NEW YORK, May 21.-Stocks as a whole today recovered much of the ground lost during yesterdays set back, although the rise was frequent ly retarded by renewed selling. Both in breadth and volume, the session was the most contracted of any in the last fortnight.
 During the forenoon and in the final hour, pressure against United Steel served as a deterrent, though offset by the strength of other industrials and equipments. Steel closed at 1OS 5-S, a net gain of 3-S. Rails, coppers, ship pings and tobaccos engrossed specula- tive attention in the latter dealings. Marine preferred making a new high quotation for the present movement.
 Baldwin Locomobile featured the distinctive equipments at wide fluetu- ations, closing at net gain of a large fraction after having risen almost three points. Coppers strengthened l to 21b, presumably in anticipation of tomorrow's meeting of the producers with the war board when action on higher price schedule is expected.
 The movement in rails centered around low priced issues, New Haven, Rock Island and St. Paul recording substantial advances, some of which were later forfeited in part Reading and Union Pacific were the only in- vestment rails to move more than nominally. Sales 6OO,00O shares.
 Bonds were irregular, Liberty 4s making a new low record at 975O; internationals steadying. Total sales, par value, S4,925,000. Old United States issues were unchanged on call, except for a rise of S-S in the cou- non 3is

GREEAVILLE, s. C., May 21.-Joe Jackson former star Outfelder of the Chicago Americans, has been certi- fed to the local draft exemption board, which had ordered him to report for military duty. as being in the employ of the Emergency Fleet corporation. This certificate stays the order of the local board calling Jackson and placed him in the classification of necessary employes. As he is employed in ship building on the Deleware. he probably will not be subject to the draft.

CHAINS

CHICAGO, May 21.-Weakness in the corn market today, owing mainly to absence of any aggressive buying. Closing prices were unsettled, l Is net lower to a shade advance with May 1.27 7-S and July 1.421s to 142 5-S. Oats finished 3-S off to 7-S up, and provisions down F to g.
 About the only demand for corn came from local traders. A somewhat generally accepted opinion that a week of favorable weather would re- suit in the bulk of planting being com pleted in the big states tended to cur tail purchases.
 In the oats pit, nearby deliveries were strong in sympathy with ad- vances at Winnipeg and as a result or congestion in the May opion here, July was governed by the weakness of corn. Provisions lacked support, despite strength in the hog market.

Proposed New Constitution
 Synopsis

departments and banc, and shall always be shall be elected at the first general election af- ter the ratification of the Constitution. Their term shall be eight years Other sections pro vide for the complete system of Circuit Chan cery, County, Municipal and Juvenile Courts
 The bushes of the Supreme Court has more than doubled in fifteen years About GOO cases is the courts annual capacity under high pressure, and the judges have found it impos- sible to prevent congestion, even by working day and night. The plan has been in operation
 in California for twenty-five years, and it's adoption is recommended by the Arkansas Bar Association. The article framed by some of the states ablest lawyers, places the judiciary on the highest possible plane. The new judges will not be elected until 1920. It has been race horse, having to keep up with the docket regardless of the number of appeals. The nne judges of the Supreme Court Of the United States hand down an average of thirty opinions each, annually, while the five Arkansas judges write average of 125 each, annually. Life, liberty, property and reputation all in their hands. Their opinions become fixed rules and precedents for all time. It is impossible to overstate the great importance to the people of giving the Supreme Court judges all the time required for the decision of cases, and the of opinions in manner that com ports with the dignity and responsibility of a tribunal from whose decisions there is no ap- peal.

OUADRENNIAL ELECTIONS

Art III, Sec. 12, provides that ''the general elections shall be held quadrennially, on Tues day following the first Monday in November from and after the general elction held in the year 1920" Other provisions fix the terms of the various State, district, county and township officers at four years, except that Justices of the Supreme Court shall be elected for terms of eight years. The terms of Chancellors are reduced to four years
 This is popular reform, especially when considered in connection with See. 1, Art. VI, which provides that no one of the state off cers shall be eligible as his own successor, nor shall he, during his term of office, become a candidate for any other office" This gives a public official reasonably long tenure the same in effect as that which now prevails through the unwritten party law of a second term for an officer whose services are satisfac- tory. In some years there have been as many as nine elections-primary, general and special and the people have been kept in an un- necessary political turmoil. There was some- body constantly running for office' An of- ficer was scarcely more than inducted into one office than he began pulling the wires and building his fences to succeed himself or to be promoted to some other. It was not the fault of the man but the system This has had a tendency to build up political machines and perpetuity in office-holdng This will be in- possible under the pr1vision. A state of- ficer will serve four years and then he will step down and out, and he cannot spend the time for which he is paid a salary in campaigning for another officer The prohibition of success eession and becoming a candidate for any eth CT office does not apply to county officers. The chief advantage of the new system will be that one-half the expense and worry of fre- quent elections will be eliminated and poti- cal machines will be removed as menace to good government.

COST OF FLOWING
 WITH FARM TRACTOR

Fayetteville, Dee. 2.-ln or ter to determine the actual cost of blowing land with a tractor in Arkansas and in or der to test the efficiency and staying powers of the engine, the College of Agriculture ot the University of Arkansas recently conducted a ploWlng test for g. 1-2 hours. Some what more than 34 acres ot land were pIowed. The exact cost per acre was found to be about $1.
 Following the g 1-2 hours of actual work the tractor was run for l 3-4 miles. Af- ter the engine had been rum ming for 48 hours it was still cool.

AMENDMENTS

Art xxx, Sec. B, provides that not more than three amendments to the Constitution may be submitted at any time by the General Assembly; all proposed amendments shall be published weekly for thirty days, the last pub lication to be at least sixty days prior to the election: a ma ority of those voting at cleo ton is necessary for the adoption of amend ment
 While more latitude is given, it will con- tinue to be somewhat difficult matter to amend the Constitution. No limit is placed dp- on the number of amendments the people may submit under the Initiative and Referendum, but the General Assembly is still restricted to three at any one election. Since amendments can be submitted at only siXty-day sessions, there can be but three offered every four years by the Legislature However, the people may submit any number every two years, since general elections must continue to be held bi- ennialIy on account of the election of members of Congress. Considerable saving is provided in the cost of publishing proposed amendments the time being reduced from six months to thirty days. By providing that the final pub- lication shall be not less than sixty days prior to the election at which the vote is to be taken, ample time is given for the most thorough cir cuation of the proposed measure, and for the voters to famiarize themselves with it's proVs- ions

INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM

Art. V, Sec. l, provides for the Initiative and Referendum for the State and municipal- ties. Eight per cent of the legal voters may propose statute and 10 per cent Constitu- tional amendment. The proposed measure shall be published thirty days before fi- ing with the Secretary of State, which shall be four months before the election. Six per cent of the electors may order election upon any general act, the petition to be filed within nine ty days following the adjournment of the Leg isature.- ma jority of votes cast on the sub- ject shall be sufficient to enact or repeal an act but ma jority of all votes cast at the election shall be required to adopt an amendment Two thirds of each House may declare any act an emergency measure effective at once. The provisions apply to municipalities as we'll as the State, but measure may be inflated in any municipality unless the law making power has first refused to enact it. The Governor or May or can not veto initiated acts. The law Is self executing, and no law may be passed restrict ing the peoples rights hereunder
 This is the Oregon system, with some inn provements dictated by experience It makes long step forward in popular control of legis- lation. It is great improvement over the old Constitution. It removes present restrictions which limit the number of Constitutional amendments that may be submitted at one el- ection to three, and allows the people to init- ate any number. It is safe and sane, and gives ample protection and safeguards to the rights Iof the people. It embodies the best experience of the country on the subject and will doubtless prove to be one of the most popular provisions Iof the proposed Constitution.

SPANISH INFLUENZA
Do Not Fear When Fighting a German or a Germ!
 BY DR. NJ COOK.

The cool fighter always wins and so there is no need to become panic stricken. Avoid fear and crowds. Ex- ereise in the fresh air and practice the three C's: 4 Clean Mouth, a Clean Skin and Clean Bowels. To carry off the poisons that accumulate within the body and to ward off an attack of the influenza bacillus, take a good liver regulator to move the bowels. Such a one is made up of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of ialap, and is to be had at any drug store, and called NPleasant Purgative Pellets.n
 If bad cold develops, go to bed, wrap up we'll, drink freely of hot lemonade and take hot mustard foot bath. Have the bedroom warm but well ven tilated. Obtain at the nearest drug store "Anuric Tablets" to flush the kidneys and control the pains and aches. Take an "Anurie tablet every two hours, together with copious drinks of lemonade. If true case of inf1u. enza, the food should be simple, such as broths, milk, buttermilk and ice-cream; put 1t is important that food be given regularly in order to keep up patients strength and vitality. After the acute attack has passed, which is generally from three to seven days, the system should be built up by the use of . good iron tonic, such as uIrontic" tablets. to be obtained at some drug stores, or that well known blood maker and herbal tonic made from roots a,d barks of forest trees-sold everywhere IS Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discover 7.
