Secretary McAdoo. of the treasury.
head Of the railroad administration
and several other important depart
ments Of the government, has tender
ed his resignation and the same has
been accepted by the president. AS
secretary Of the treasury during the
trying times resulting from the war
Secretary McAdoo has directed the f.
nancial affairs of the government with
remarkable skill. Had he confined
his work entirely to this branch. for
which by previous experience he was
we'll qualified, it would have been
much better for himself. and perhaps
for the country. When he assumed
the management of our vast transpor-
tation system he got out of his ele.
ment. In this branch he has failed
to measure up to requirements. The
service given has been inferior to
anything that we have had for many
years; the expense to the public has
been vastly increased, and yet SO reck-
lessly has he increased the expense of
operation that the deficiency runs into
the hundreds of millions. The people
have endured the Inconvenience and
borne the extra expense as patriotic
duty while the warsalasted. but now
that the war is overas readjustment
of the entire system of management
is inevitable. The service must be
improved and the cost reduced. This
task MIR. McAdoo evidently does not
wish to tackle, and he gets from un-
der while the getting is good.

In other words Germany has made of
herself q Frankenstein. and has given
life to q monster that she can not
control. The other cause is the fact
that the German people are not vet
fitted for self government. The peo-
pie are not lacking In education. but
the quality Of an education is even
more important than the education
itself. They have been systemati-
cally taught that force was the only
thing to be relied upon in maintain-
ing government. Justice. fairness.
and the common principles of human
ity, which should be the governing
principles Of individual as we'll as
national life. have had no part in
their education. They have been
held in subjection under the rule Of
force, and now that that is removed
thev have no governing principle and
naturally drift into the anarchistic
life advocated by the bolsheviki.

The developments in Germany in
dicate that the government of Ebert
will,be about as short lived as the
government Of Karensky was in Rus
sia. The revolutionary movement
under the leadership Of the bolsheviki
seems to be growing in all parts of
the old empire, and reign Of anar-
cby la feared. Two important causes
are responsible for this unfortunate
condition. One is that Germany, for
selfsh reasons, encouraged the boil
shesiki movement in Russia, believ-
ing that this would cause the COM
pIete collapse Of the Russian govern
ment and out Of the wreck she coiud
the more easily accomplish her own
designs on that country. This en-
enlargement has developed a bolshey-
Iii movsnsdtr in her own country.

SAGE TEA TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe TO
Bring Back Color and
lustre to Hair.

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked. just an
application or two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances its appearance a hum
dred-fold
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at small cost, all
ready for use. 1t is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This
can always be depended upon to
bring back the natural color and lus-
ter of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" now because it
darkens 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
the hair, taking one small strand at
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another appli-
cation it becomes beautifully dark
ano appears glossy and lustrous.
This ready-to- use preparation is a de-
lightful toilet requisite for those who
desire dark hair and a youthful ap-
pearance. 1t is not intended for the

EAT PINTO BEANS
Kansas Food Administrator
Says Do 1t Right Now.
The Pinto Is a Good Substitute
for Meat.

Wichita, kan, Feb 12-Today is
a good day to try pinto beans as a
substitute for meat. the Kansas food
administrator says Pinto beans make
good meal substitute. They contain
more nutrition per pound than navy
or lima beans according to a govern
ment analysis, and are much cheaper
than the white beans. Their, is an un-
limited supply of pinto beans in Colo
RADIO and there are a few in western
Kansas. The United States food adj
ministration is urging dealers to
handle the pinto bean. but grocers are
slow to take them up because they
fear the public will not eat them.
However. in New York, pinto beans
are in great demand. Their cheapness
has recommended them to the poor
and their food value has recommended
them to the wealthy. The United
States army and navy are both using
pintos, and the navy bean may change
its name before the war is over. The
cost is 80 to 40 per cent less than the
cost of navy beans.
Make Good Mexican Dishes.
If the public demands pinto beans
the grocers will provide them as they
will be glad to keep anything for
which there is demand. Dealers are
urged to get a supply of pinto beans
on hand and advertise them, thus Civ
ing their trade the advantage of a
cheap food.
Pinto beans are used for making
the famous Mexican frijoles. They
can be used for anything that navy
beans are used for A dimes worth of
pinto beans will equal in food value
46 cents worth of round steak, 54
cents worth of eggs and Is cents worth
of potatoes, according to figures COM
piled from experiments made for the
Burlington railway dining car service
Eat pinto beans today, which is the
official meatless day, and save meat
for the soldiers in France The SOL
diers are already eating their share of
beans. They are entitled to some
meat. Herbert Hoover saws.
