FROZEN RIVER

LIQUOR TRADING

Wheeling, W. Va, Jan. 10-Prohi-
bition officers, here, are experiencing
much trouble in dealing with per-
sons who bring liquor from the Ohio
side, due to the fact that the bone
dry violaters are utilizing the frozen
Ohio river as means of entrance to
West Virginia, instead of trolley cars
and the bridges. Heretofore the Of
ficers, three in number, have success
fully enforced the law by keeping
sharp lookout on the two bridges here.
But when the Ohio froze solid on a
five mile front they found it diff
cult to watch so wide an eXpanse of

JAPAN'S PROGRESS
HAS BEEN SUBJECT
OF MUCH COMMENT

In Japan strong conservatism and
radical praetiea1ism go side by side.
Under the unbFoken dynasty constant
renovation has taken place, says the
East and West News. On the one
hand the Great Shrine at $50 is re-
built after the most ancient fashion
at every twenty-frst year, and the
japanese poem is still composed, in
strict observance of the archaic form,
in .yersihcation as well as in voeabu-
larry; but on the other hand new ideas
have been introduced and adopted
age by age in order to increase the
national welfare and elevate the ma
tfonal life.
at seems that adaptability and ad-
justment are the strong points Of our
nationality says DR.. Haga of Tokia
University, Though Japan has had
twice to confront powerful and diff
ferent civilizations in the Taika and
Meiji remeration times she never lost
the right course and passed through
a. score of dangerous crises in her
social evolution triuHlphant1y, assimi-
lating at the same time the alien ele-
ments to her hearts content, The
spirit implied in the old saying, chi

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Wefl-known local druggist says every
body is using old time recipe of
Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre.
or when it fades. turns gray. duh and
lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture Of sage tea and sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade Of hair which is so at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug store
for bottle of 'Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" which darkens
the hair so naturally, so evenly, that
nobody can possibly tell it has been
applied. You just dampen sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair. taking one small
strand at a time Rv morning the
gray hair disappears: but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound is that--besides
beautifully darkening the hair after a
few applications, it also brings back
the gloss and lustre and gives it an
appearance Of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and youthful appear
ance to the hair. It is not intended
for the cure, mitigation or prevention

FEARS AMERICAN ACTIVITY.
Japanese Statesman Distrustful Of
Yankees in Russia

Yankees in Russia.
Toxic, March "a (hy maiD Some
misgivings as to the policy of the
United States as affecting Siberia re-
Gently have found expression in the
japanese house of representatives.
Conviction that Japan should pay close
attention to the activity of the United
States in Russian territory was ex-
pressed by Manitsu Tanaka in y
speech in the house recently. This ac-
tIvity, he said. might be designed to
obtain rights and interests of various
kinds Tanaka said he believed that, if
America attained its object, a hard

He thought that American sympathy
for Russia was largely due to her am
bitten &C ;GislliaHt her influence there
by utilizing the present opportunity for
irresting her 'arge capital in an eX-
tensive area of Russian territory. to
exploit Russias vast natural resources
and TO help forward Russia's civiliza-
ton. To speak frankly, he believed
that another object of the United
States in showing sympathy to Russia
might be to check the advance of
Japanese influence northwards.
The speaker also referred to a rumor
that the United States was trying to
purchase kamchatka which he said he
believed America coveted for its eco.
nomic value and perhaps because
America had an idea of instituting
gigantic scheme OF communication be-
tween the three continents OF AMER
lea, Asia and Europe.
There is no confirmation. however,
of the rumor referred to by Repre-
sentative Tanaka.

Light on "Liberalisn1'
in Germany Shines in
Berlin Newspapers

German newspapers which have
reached this country are fun Of dis
cussions about the possible political
arrangements in the various parts Of
Russia. Hindenburg's visit 10 Berlin rs
described as having been solely con
cerned with political decisions in the
east; most of the miltarist organs in

permanent assertion of German inter-
e<sts in the Baltic provinces.
AS regards Polond the Germania,
the Berlin organ of the center party,
which is pretty sure to be Well in
formed about current intrisues says
that the proposed basis of settlement"
is as follows:
The kingdom Of Poland would ex-
pressly recognize the western frontiers
which existed before the war, and
would definitely join Central Europe.
On the other hand. Poland would be
left the possibility Of expansion to-
ward the east Germany would re-
nounce any annexation and would
promise to consider Polish interests in
fixing the frontier between Poland and
the Ukraine At the same time it is
evident that in such negotiations the
Germans are insisting upon a military
convention.
Even the Frankfurter Zeitung says
that this is 'fundamental' and writes:
Germany has won the right TO group
in a definite system of states the peo-
pies she has liberated from the Rus
sian yoke. After all that has
happened it would not pc natural for
Germany simply to remove herself and
carelessly TO leave the foreign relations
Of these countries to the future TO the
PROBABLY stormy national differences
and to the ultimate action of the new
Russia. The Poles must recognize that
military convention with Germany
guarantees their independence without
exposing them to danger from Ger

Meanwhile, in spite of all its pious
phrases, the organ Of German liberal
ism is perfectly reconciled TO the

Women Are Mothering
Our Boys Over There

when | landed in France l didn't
think so much of the salvation Army:
! after two weeks with the Americans at
the front and near the front | take off
my hat to the Salvation Army. The
American soldiers take off their hats to
the Salvation Army. and when the me-
moirs of this war come to be written
the doughnuts and apple pies of the
Salvation Army are going to take their
place in history.
That is how one of the New YORK
Times war correspondents with the
American army in France starts ont
his latest letter Some more of the
letter:
That organization has done world
of good in. providing conveniences and
recreation for the American soldiers 50

be the reason what it may. no one who

Army has made a hit with them. Per-

it is something of a psychological ma

COOLIES OF OIL FOR HUNS.
German Governments to Have Complete
Control Of Roumanjau Fields,


Control Of Roumanian Fields.
The Hague, April 30.-The Berlin
papers to hand here proudly approve
the measures taken to insure Rou
manian petroleum for Germany in the
future The Frankfurter Zeitung says
these measures will insure the supply
Of oil for Germany and Austria-Hun-
gary for generations to come. 1t says
details of the agreement are to be kept
secret until the final settlement, but
the general impression is that Ger
man interests are adequately provided
for. as German contract corporation
has been formed in which the Rou-
manian government has interests. bnt
Germany viii have the deciding votes.
The papers lay stress on the fact
that the Roumanian government will
be in position to sell shares. to a
third party and that Austria-R hungary
has already put shares on the market.
The eventuality of a Boumarlian com.
.mercial monopoly has also been pro-
vided for The net fesult, 1T is as
serted, is that more than half of Ger
many's necessary oil product imports
is insured, so that dependence on
America for these has been much re-
duced. The German military maintain
complete control Of the output Of the
oil fields for The duration of the war.
A Berlin report states that the de-
lay in the negotiations is no fault of
Germany, but is due to the fact that
the central powers must sign a treaty
agreement on some territorial ques-
ton not yet reached.
