COMB SAGE TEA IN
 HAIR TO DARKEN IT
Grandma Kept Her Locks Dark, Glossy, and Youthful With Sage
 Tea and Sulphur

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 good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youth full appearance is of the greatest ad- 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 dis cover 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 morning the gray hair dis appears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth'S Sage and Sulphur Com pound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few appli- cations, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive,

Even chronic cases of 20 to 30 years standing, with profuse bleeding, have been completely cured
 in from three to ten days

No discovery of recent years in the field of medicine has caused such a stir amongst the medical profession as the recent discovery that piles can be successfully treated and cured at home by a wonderful prescription known to druggists as Miro Pile Remedy.
 It has been proved that so called external remedies applied or inserted into the rectum cannot cure piles and at the best only give temporary re- lief. This is also true of surgical operations which simply remove them after formation, but in no wise act on the source of the trouble.
 This prescription, although taken internally, is not digested in the stomach, but is rapidly passed on un- changed to the intestines in a short time, reaching the exact place where by it's soothing, healing action, it first allays all inflammation and then by direct contact with all ulcers and piles, causes them to heal and dis appear forever.
 It's positively marvellous how

THREATEN EMBARGO
 BECAUSE OF STRIKE
Non Appearance of Bremen, Oilers and Seamen Is Causing Freight
 Congestion in New York.

New York, July 17-An embargo on export freight was threatened to- day as the strike of firemen, oilers and seamen continued to spread Con- gestion of freight on the docks has become a serious matter and an en- bargo on shipments for transfer to coastWise steamers was expected to be made operative at any time. The number of police assigned to guard the piers has been doubled and every precaution taken to prevent damage by fire to the vessels tied up for lack of crews.
 The action of the United States Shipping Board in appealing to the strikers for volunteers to permit the sailing of six ships with cattle for the French government was inter preted as recognition by the govern ments officials of the seriousness of the strike situation. The board of fered to pay men joining crews for the six vessels the full increased rates of wages announced on Saturday last.
 Secretary Carlson of the Firemens Water Tenders and Oilers union said that the appeal would make no difference. He declared that all men are being called off ships, as soon as they arrive in port without distinc- ton.

Lice on hogs can be controlled in va

Medicated hog wallows and rubbing

that they caused little or no damage,
but neither of these methods destroyed
all the lice. Crude petroleum was
used on the rubbing posts and the wal

Of large sities-a congestion that has
increased during the past several
years, and that, IL 1t continues, will
tend to run up the cost OF living.
Those are few of the main reasons
why, from the standpoint of self-inter-
est, the city automobile owner should
vote for road-bond issues.
Good Roads as Military Measure.
From the standpoint of duty, the
military element probably takes first
place. When it became necessary two
years ago to concentrate great num-
bers of men in environments, it was
found that the roadways connecting
the environments with the surrounding
cities We're In no sense adequate. For
the most part new roads had to be
constructed. There is always the pos
sibility of another such emergency,
and the only means of insuring facile
communication Is by the construction
of surfaced roads over which motor
trucks can operate.
While the security of the nation In
such an emergency might depend upon
good roads for military uses, their serV-
Ice to the nation would not be con-
fined to military matters. For great
portion of the time during the past two
years 80 per cent of the railroad ca
paclty Of the country was required for
military purposes, The transportation
of food, fuel and the like had to be
accomplished largely by means other
than rail. Some hardships were en-
tailed. The motortruck, however, over
such roads as were passable, rendered
excellent service. When the present
BODYBUILDING program is carried out
and the total Of improved roads is
several times larger than at present,
the service possibilities of the motor
truck will be eorrespondingly in
creased and the safety of the nation
and the comfort of the people more
fully insured.

CONGRESS OF VIENNA, 1s15-sEcoND SESSION.
After Napoeons Defeat at Waterloo, the Interrupted Peace Delegates Took Up
Their Work Again and Divided EuroHe, Regardless Of the Desires Of the
People, in a Way Destined to Bring Warfare to Later Generations.

After the "Reign Of the Hundred
Days" and the crushing defeat of
Napoleon at Waterloo, the congress
of Vienna reassembled, meeting in
June, when the smoke of Waterloo
had scarcely cleared away. The dele
gates came again to the council table
with an appetite for plumber, whetted
by the exciting events Of the recess
They looked upon their former work
and found it good, but capable of be-
ing improved. The idea that the
Italians, who were handed over to a
German rule; Poles, who were handed
over to Prussian and Russian rule, or
the Norwegians, who were transferred
to the rule of Sweden, should have
any voice in the matter, seems not to
have weighed with the map-makers.
Large armies.were still kept under
arms in France and Italy. Murat. the
sergeant of marines whom Napoleon
had made a marshal Of France and
king of Naples, had deserted the en-
peror when things went against him
in 1914. hoping thus to keep his throne
Of Naples and the two Sicilies. But
Murat knew that the congress of
Vienna was "eeking some excuse to
oust him ana dispose of his kingdom:
that they would. by hook or crook,
find such a excuse, and so, when
Napoleon broke out from Elba, he de-
clared for the emperor. Whereupon
On allied army promptly drove him
out Of Naples. Now the congress gave
Murat's kingdom to that line of the
Boutbons which had formerly reiyned
there, whose misrule had been u scam
dal to Europe.

able summer and fall in completing
their work. When 1t was concluded

its head, which embraced all Ger

and the duchy Of Posen, was formed.
England had Ceylon. part Of Guiana,

Having thus settled the affairs of

Guilty that he contrived to hide the
exaltation that might have ruined ev-
erything!
While he was trying to invent a pre-
text for drawing her apart from the
others she calmly ordered Van Dyke
to relinquish his place on the couch
beside her to Barnes.
"Come and sit beside me, Mr..
Barnes" she called out gayly. II will
not bite you or scratch you or harm
you in any way. Ask Mr.. O'Dowd,
and he will tell you that l am quite

"You do" said O'Dowd promptly.
"You do more than that. You devour.

convince meself that you haven't swal-
lowed me whole. That's another way
of telling you, Barnes, that she'll alb
sorb you entirely"
For a few minutes she chided him
for his unseemly aversion. He was
beginning to think that he had been
mistaken in her motive, and that after
all she was merely satisfying her van-
ity. Suddenly. and as she smiled into
his eyes, she said, lowering her voice
slightly:
do not appear surprised at any
thing l may say to you. Smile as if
we were uttering the s%illiest nonsense.
So much depends upon it, Mr.. Barnes"

De Soto. II will make the cocktails

Much to Barnes surprise-and dis
appOintment-the interior Of the house

rich, gay materials; the hangings at
the windows were of deep blue and
gold; the walls an u%nobtrusive cream
color, almost literally matched with
etchings.
The stairs were thickly carpeted. At
the top his guide turned to the left
and led the way down a long corridor.
They passed at least four doors be-

He was to depart at ten. The hour
drew near and he had had no opportu.

Miss Cameron. He had listened to her
bright retorts to O'Dowd's sallies, and
marveled at the ease and composure
with which she met the witty Irish
man on ven terms
Not until the very close Of the ev,4
ming, and when he had resigned him
self to hopelessness, did the opportu-
nifty come for him to speak with her
alone. She caught his eye, and, to his
amazement, made a slight movement
of her head, unobserved by the others
but c%uriously imperative to him. There
was no installing the meaning of the
direct, intense look that she gave him.
She was appealing to- him as a
friend-as one on whom she could de.

The spirit of chivalry took possess

call. She needed him and he would
