GERMANY WON'T GET
MUCH AMERICAN PROPERTY

Washington, March, 18.-There is
a hundred times as much German
property in the United States as
there is American property in Ger
many, according to estimates pre-
sented recently to a senate com
mittee by A. Mitchell Palmer, alien
property custodian.
The greater part OF American
property in Germany is represent
ed in Standard Oil interests. The
German law now enables the Ger
man government to do with Ameri-
can property exactly what congress
now is asked to do with German
property in America. The senate
has already passed legislation au-
thorizing the alien enemy custo-
dian to sell the property holdings
of German organizations in the
United States, so that they may not
serve as the outposts OF kultur aft
er the war.

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed With Sulphur 1t Darkens
So Naturally Nobody
Can Tell.

The old-time mixture OF Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, 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 great
est 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, improved by the ad-
dition of other ingredients, called
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" 1t is very popular because
nobody can discover it has been ap-
piled. Simply moisten your comb
or a soft brush with it 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 few applications, ii
also produces that soft lustte and
appearance Of abundance which is
so attractive. This ready-to-use
preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite for those who desire
more youthful appearance. 1t is
not intended for the cure, mitiga'
ton or prevention of disease.
