Returned to His AiIeoiance

Since the war broke out my boys,
five and eight years of age, have done
nothing but talk or play war. One day
with four other little fellows they de-
cided to play war, insisting that my
youngest boy be on the German side.
After much arguing and crying and
yet afraid of breaking up the game he
finally decided to be German. Each
side took their places, supposedly be-
hind the trenches. When the call came
to fire the little fellow turned and
fired at one of his men. The older one
on seeing this yelled: You can't
down one of your own men," when de-
family he replied: Jaw, Pm turned
traitor I'm an American Exchange

MORRIS G. co. AND WILSON G. CO.
CHARGED WITH SUPPLYING
MEAT UNFIT TO EAT.
NO PENALTY is PROVIDED
Officials of Administration Say They
Probably Will Find Some Penalty
Even If Only On the Ground
of Food Wastage.

Washington. The sale OF thous-
ands of pounds of spoiled meat and
other foods to Camp Travis, Tex, is
charged against Morris & Co. and
Wilson e Co. in a complaint issued
by the Federal Trade Commission.
The complaint says the food was
unfit for human consumption" Most
OF it was detected and condemned, but
it is said some of it may have been
passed and consumed. Details We're
withheld. The announcement and cor
reSpondence given out with it, how
ever, show the alleged offenses oc-
CURED last December and are the
same upon which indictments were
obtained in Texas by the Department
of Justice after an investigation by
the Food Administration. The indict-
ments were dropped because they
were returned under the section of
the food bill which carries no pen
atty.
Since thca Sac Food Administra-
ton and the commission have contin-
ued their investigation. If the COM
plant should be sustained the CON-
mission could do no more than order
the packers ito cease and desist'
from the practices. Upon repetition,
Offenders may be hailed into federal
court
A further report to the Food Ad-
ministration from e. A. Peden,. fed
eral administrator for Texas, is ex-
pected soon. Officials of the admins
tration say they probably will find
some penalty even il only on the
ground of food wastage.
Correspondence between Mr.. Peden
and Mr.. Boyden, chief of the Enforce
ment Division Of the Food Admins
tration, shows that Mr.. Peden report
ed his belief that the trouble was the
attempt of the packers to do business
without proper facilities. 1t is charg-
ed that the unfit chickens were pre-
pared in unclean surroundings by
barefoot MeXieans in an unscreened
room and only partially cleared.

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 reci
pc, and folks are again using it to keep
their hair a good even color, which is
quite sensible, as we are living in an age
when 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-
dents, 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
soft brush with If and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth S Sage and Sulphur
Compound, is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few appli-
cations, it also produces that soft lustre
and appearance of abundance which is
so attractive This ready -to-use prepa-
ration is delightful toilet requisite for
those who desire a more youthful ap-
pearance. 1t is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
