At a dinner the other night to Ed

lean journalist, several epigrams were
related about the peace terms. The
Americans described it as "a peace
with a punch" An English speaker
said he had heard it described as "a

ECONOMIC SPACE in GARDEN
Cucumbers and Tomatoes May BE
Grown on Stakes or TrelIises-
Chicken Wire Is Good.

When land is limited, cucumbers
and tomatoes may be grown on stakes
or trellises. Chicken wire Is good for
this, or tomatoes may be tied to stakes
driven in the ground at each plant, and
then all but two or three branches
kept cut OF, and tying those left to
the stake as they grow; this results In
a little less fruit per plant, but more
plants may be planted on the same
amount OF space. Three feet apart
each way is enough.

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother S
time. She used 1t to keep her hair
beautifully dark. glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle Of "Wyeth' s
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell 1t has
been applied. You simply dampen q
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. It is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention Of
disease.

Marshall Rhordes, of Eufaula, Ala,
land took it for indigestion, nervous
ness, loss of appetite and similar trou-
bles. 1t helped me very much. My
mother-in-law suffered with the same
troubles, so | gave her dose or two
of Ziron, and she says it helped her
greatly. l will always keep bottle
of Ziron in the house and will speak

Ziron is new combination of Iron,
with the hypophosphites of lime and
soda, and other valuable tonic ingre-
dents, which have been found to
build up the enemic, weak, WORKOUT
system. Ziron puts iron into your
blood when you need it. If you are
pale, weak, nervous, depressed, have no
appetite, it is probably sign that your
blood needs Iron. Take Ziron.

LONDON, Jan. "a. Correspondence
of the Associated Press The story
of a colonel of Australian infantry
who was wounded in the GaIlipoIi

but who concealed his rank and re-
enlisted as a private to serve with
the Australians in France, has added
to the esteem in which Australians are

practicing law in Australia when vne
war began. He was the major in
command of the first brigade which
landed at Amaze Cove on GaIlipoli
peninsula. Within two days he was
wounded three times. After recovery
in England he returned to Gallipoli
and led his battalion in their immor-
tai charge at Lone Pine.
After the evacuation of Gallipoli he
served for a time in Egypt and was
sent from there to England suffering
from wounds and fever. Surgeons re-
fused him permission to return to &C
tive service and he was sent to Aus
tralia as second in command of an
Australian training camp.
One day he slipped away from the
camp and joined a replacement bat
talon in Queensyand under the name
of Charles Melville and soon after
ward was bacg in England training on
Salisbury Plain as Private Melville.
He was quickly promoted to be cor
poraI and one day was asked by his

Having commanded a brigade, the
