LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded. gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used 1t 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out-of-date.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 "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will 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 1t 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 an
other application or two, It becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. 1t Is not intended for
the cure. mitigation or prevention OF
disease.

The kidneys do their utmost to free

four ounces of Jad Salts; take a
tablespoonful in glass of water before

famous salts is made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with

Washington, Nov. 12.-America to-

With the military strength of the
central powers shattered and hostil-
tiles ceased under terms of surrender
that preclude a renewal of the great
struggle the United States with the
associated governments today took up
the problems of reconstruction. I'm

which Germany. as the chief criminal
with Austria, Turkey and Bulgaria
will stand as prisoners at the bar.
When or where the final peace ne
gotiations will be held officials would
not conjecture.
Difficulties Ahead.
Thirty days is the time allowed un-
der the armistice terms for assem-
bling of the peace congress. The ar
mistice however, includes a provision
for it's extension. The great interests
involved, the many governments and
nationalities concerned and the diff
culties to be met in convening such a
conference in a short time may cause
an extension of the thirty day limit.
1t was regarded as likely that the
peace conference will be similar to the
meeting at Versailles. where the armi-
stice terms were formulated. The vic
tors. meeting separately. probably will
decide upon terms and then the de-
feated be permitted to enter pleas of
modification.
Break Up Military.
The military looked today to the
breaking up and returning to civilian

past nineteen months. Further in
crease of the military forces was
checked yesterday thru cancellation OF
all outstanding draft calls. The re-
turn home of the nearly two and a
quarter million men overseas and the
mastering out of the million and a
half troops in camps in this country
will not come Immediately. The United
States entering the war last, probably
| will be called upon to do much of the
police and guard duty in France and
| Belgium. Future events in Russia are
uncertain and the small force there
may have to be augmented. Transport

Chaotic Condition of World
Finance BOtherS.
There VIII Be Additional Lib
erty Loans.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE chaotic
condition of world finance makes it
necessary for the American people to
prepare for further taxation and bond
issues, Secretary McAdoo warned to-
day.
I'VE do not know exactly where we
stand" said McAdoo. I'VE know there
are hundreds Of millions yet which the
war department must spend. but we
do not know how long the heavy bur-
den will last. OF this much we are
sure. there must be liberty loans and
there must be a long season for heavy
taxes"
Allies Need More.
Further credits are expected to be
made to the allies. But McAdoo said
even this is an unknown quantity.
Their financial situation is not unlike
Americas. Fer that reason the de-
mands they will make upon this gov
ernment for the moment cannot be
determined.
continued. There will be no relaxa-
ton in controlling stock and bond is
sues thru the capital issues committee
until the nations financial condition
can be accurately forecast. he said.
However. he indicated there likely will
be tendency to liquidate obligations
held by the war finance corporation
since its usefulness will decline igrad-
ually with the restoration of peace
time industries.
McAdoo would not say definitely
what would be done with the loans al
readily made to the allies. At present
this obligation now totals nearly S.

to convert it into bonds of the various

THE LINE At CLOSE
Where Allied Soldiers Stood When
Armlstice Came.

When the last shot was fired the
allied battle line from the Dutch
border to Switzerland was ap-
proximately as follows:
The frontier of Holland north of
Selzaete to Client to east of
Audenarde to Grammont to east of
Mons to east of Maubeuge and
thence east of the Franco-Be1gian
border to north of Rocroi.. Thence
the line was along the Meuse to
Mezieres to Sedan and across the
river in the region of Stenay. Then
southeastward south of Montmedy
and northeast of Verdun to the
Mosellc near Pagny. northeast of
Pont-A-MousSon. The line then
paralleled the Lorraine frontier TO
west of Markirch. where 1t entered
Alsace, thence it ran southwark
to Switzerland on line about
twenty miles west of the Rhine.
France had been entirely cleared
of the invaders except for the mar
row strip OF territory between the
Meuse to Alsace.
