TURN HAIR DARK
 WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It 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 1t to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible. as we are living in an age when a youth full appearance is of the greatest ed- vantage.
 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 addition of other ingredients called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morn ing the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, be- sides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also pro- duces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.

Commission of Five Mem. bers to Establish
 Frontier.

London, June 17-(Correspondenc first duties of the League of Nations after the treaty of peace with Ger many is ratified is to organize a com mission of five members to trace the exact frontier line of the Sarre Val ley. This task Is pointed out in a statement Issued here by an official of the League, apparently Sir Eric Orummond, the secretary.
 The commission must be set up if teen days after the peace treaty Is signed and ratified, says the state ment. Three members of the com mission are to be appointed by the League of Nations.
 To be prepared for this and other duties of the league, a. plan of organ tzing the league is being prepared and the personnel of the office of general secretary Is being selected provision ally. This plan of organization is subject to the approval of the organiza- tion committee of the league which is composed of representative of the United States, Great Britain, France, Italy, Japan, Belgium, Brazil, Greece and Spain.
 Aided by ~certain persons of differ ent nationalities,'' the secretary is working out plans for the creation of truly international secretariat" It is pointed out that the members of this secretarfal body must divest themselves of international precon- captions and that they are not to be regarded as representatives of their respective nations but must devote themselves whole-heartedly to the service of the league of nations. The divergent interests of the
 states will be expressed in, the coun- i cil and the assembly of the league, says the statement and it is added
 that when important national inter- 1 ests are involved it will no doubt be | found essential that prime ministers l and foreign secretaries should attend 1 the meetings of those two bodies The secretariat it is declared. must be conducted on a wholly different basis. Men and women of broad wis
 ion and flexible mind. interested heart
 and soul in the success of the league D
 are declared to be offering their ser vices.
 | This" says the statement, "is proof
 Of the confidence that the best mer
 and women have in the promise o1 | the league. It is the first and finest
 auSury for the leagues success"

LABoR's CONSERVATIVE STAND.

From the noise that has been created by the I. W. W. people, the Anarchists, Reds, and other dis
 turbers, 1t had been feared that their demoralizing ideas had obtained a large hold in this country. When you see some flannel mouth howling from a soap box, filling the whole square with his lung exercise, the assurance with which he speaks gives his words an importance that they do not possess in reality. The people who listen are not commonly adherents
 but mere curiosity seekers.
 It was confirmatory of American common sense. that the American Federation of Labor. at it's convention recently closed at Atlantic City, f should have turned down l. w w. and communistic proposals with such an overwhelming voice.
 A good test of the strength of the I. W. W. ideas was given on the
 proposal to permit the workmen in
 industrial plants to choose their fore
 men. That was one of the fanciful
 notions that bedeviled Russia and
 prostrated the country in misery At
 the A. F. of L. meeting it was beat
 en by a 20 to 1 vote.
 The American worIlingman has ac- complfshed great gains through the
 levelling up process of the war He
 does not propose to have spendthrifts and idlers seize his Liberty Bonds
 and his savings bank deposits as com munistic property.
 However, this does not mean that the antf-bo1shevist campaign should relax it's vigor. Europe is badly in fected with the poison, and much of
 it has found it's way over here. The basic truths of sound economics should be patiently communicated to people who have never considered them, through all the channels of popular education. But the spirit of the Federation of Labor shows l that the working masses have intelli- gence. When you appeal to their reason and judgment, they can see the hole in the millstone as well as { anyone else.
