HAVE DARK HAIR
 AND LOCK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You Darken Gray, Faded Hair With
 Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened, glossy and attactive with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with won- derful effect, By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get large bot tie of this old-time recipe, improved by the. addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, at very little cost. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beau- ty to the hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied it's so easv to use too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at time. By morning the gray hairs disappear, after another application or two, it is restored to it's natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful. This preparation is delightful toilet requisite. It is not in- tended for the cure, mitigation or pre- vention of disease.

THE EYES OF THE WORLD.

The eyes of the world are upon the bloody fields of Somme.
 Not since the fateful days of 1914 has there been anything like it.
 During the retreat from Mona the British nation had to look on as it's first small military contingent was all but annihilated. Today the British held thoir breath as much larger con tingcnt valiantly struggles to maintain lfc,ty in the world.
 Taorsh in 1914 the British defeat did lot mean the failure of the allied tauae. so in 1918 the setback to Haig will not mean the loss of the cause.
 There are setbacks in every war. Though the scales may be turned a bit against us. that does not mean that they will remain this way. Already reports indicate the tide has turned.
 Let's not only hope for the best, but resolve to bring it about.

TRAPPING A SUBMARINE
Member of Crew Tells How They Were
 Caught by British.

Correspondence Associated Press)
 Amsterdam Feb. 2S.-A Dutch newspaper prints the story of a Gern- an boat which was caught in a British trap and lowed into a British port. The story comes from member of the U-boat's crew who escaped from England and is interned in Hol- land.
 "We had sighted some English fish ing boats off the English coast and were maneuvering for attack, when their curious movements led US to sus- pect tran, so we dived. We proceed ed slow ly, but presently the screw be- gan to beat irregularly and the com mander could not make out what had happened.
 After about two hours the water seemed curiously still, and the con- mander decided to come to the sur face. When we emerged We were alongside a quay where stood a num- ber of smiling British sailors. We were in a British port, lowed in like a dead fish,"

-----.--W. E. S.----------- COBB IN SERIOUS VEIN.

As d manufacturer of the quip fan tastic and the retort hilarious. Irwin Cobb needs no introduction to the dis ciples of Mark Twain-which includes about everybody.
 In explaining the tardiness of the United States in entering the war, MT Cobb in London forgot the humorous aspects and got down to bed rock.
 q believe it is better, and I believe to come into the war late with united country behind us than to come into it early, with our country diyided,' MT CGbb said
 1.-Two years ago." Cobb continued, no man could have been elected presi- dent of the United States on war program. Today no man could be elected president except on such pro- gram.
 To illustrate the United States posi- tion, Cobb asked English mothers to consider if they would have sanction ed sending British boys to California; for instance, to prevent the Mexicans from imperilizing the civilization Of Texas. Yet, in a sense. American mothers were doing that very same thing.
 MT. Cobb talks so much sense when he's trying to earn few honest dol lars manufacturing humor that we hope he gets serious more often.

That the time is coming when the women who do nothing to contribute in any way to the success of the na- ton in this war will mot be looked upon as nice" and will be summed by their neighbors and former friends, was the prediction made by Mrs. E. F. Brown of St. Louis, director of wo- mems work for the southwestern divi- sion of the Red Cross. in an address at the Chamber of Commerce Tuesday night
 How can our people dawdle their lives away in a time like this?" asked Mrs. Brown. 'I tell you it cannot be done. You cannot afford it. The time is coming when any woman or girl who dGes not engage in some kind of war work will not be looked upon as nice It will become so that their acquaint- ances will find it convenient not to know them"
 At another time, Mrs. Brown said. Il don't believe in girls and women adopting strange young men" and writing them foolish letters. The sol diers themselves don't want such as that, They want to hear from people they know at home, Such letters are of great assista1ce to the soldiers in maintaining their morale"
 Whether Mrs. Brown is accurate in her prediction depends upon how much we are called upon to sacrifice, but tho the people may not have the moral courage to show their contempt for the shirker, the feeling will be there.
 We will not be able to think we'll of those who benefit but evade their re- responsibilities, while the country cries for workers
 It may be well for women in Pine Bluff to ask themselves if they are do ing their part, A good many men should do the same thing
