THIS YANk TIGER
HAD HUNS PILED
ALL AROUND HIM

Washington, April 23.-Here is the
story of fighting American soldier
son of DR.. David. near Cleo. S. c.
He was overwhelmed by the boche,
but he had a pile of human flesh in
front of him." according to a cable
gram from the soldier son of In
ternal Revenue Commissioner Roper
today.
He fought like a tiger-accounted
for seven boches with his pistol and
then was fighting with an empty rifle
when struck from behind"
Roper'S son said:
Your faith is well placed in the
American soldiers. They have the en-
durance of the English, the charge of
the French and the pep that belongs
to Americans alone"
Young Roper reported the number
of men killed thru their own careless
ness and recklessness'' is surprising.
He mentions a friend who died that
way
He then spoke of the son of Doctor
David who met a different death-a
glorious one-it was necessary"

another man and the two were later

BAKER REPORTS
Tells House. Military Commit
tee About Trip.
Much Legislation Has Waited
ON Secretary's Return.

Washington. April 23.-Secretary
Baker gave the house military COM
mittee today a confidential report on
his trip to the battle fronts. He spent
the morning with the committee in ex-
ecutive session, going over the situa-
ton.
You can say" he announced as
he entered the committee room, that
am here just for an informal talk
on the conditions as 1 found them in
France. 1 am not going to bring up
the question of the size of the army or
extension of the draft age. You can
go as far as you like in the matter of
unified control of the allied armies
and in the sanguine and confident be-
lief in the success of the war;
Members of the committee were
present in force as it was the first
meeting of the secretary with any
congressional committee since his re-
turn. Despite his announced intention
not to bring up the question of the
size of the army, Chairman Dent and
his colleagues were curious as to the
secretary's views along this line and
were disposed to accept his recon-
mendations.
To Extend Draft Age?
The army appropriation bill has
been held up for months to await the
secretary's return. The secretary
recommendations will be made soon
preparing them.
Representative Sha1lenberger of
Nebraska has prepared a bill to extend
the draft age from 81 to 40, but has
deferred pressing it until he can ascer-
tain the Secretary'S view.

AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
Common garden Sage and Sulphur
makes strcaked. faded or gray
hair dark and youthful at
once

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed. brings back the natural color and
lIstre to the hair when faded. streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get a large
bottle of this d-time recipe improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation now. because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair. as it does it naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears and after another ap-
plication or two. your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy and
YOU look years younger. Wyeth'S Sage
and Sulphur Compound is a delightful
toilet requisite. 1t is not intended for
the cure. mitigation or prevention of
