MEN WANTED IN NAVY.

Commander L.eahy Navy Recruiting
Officer for Maryland, has been urged BY
he Navy Department to make special
Efforts TO obtain men for the Hospital
Corps, Seamen, Machinists' Mates, Fire
men and Colored Mess Attendants.
During the past few weeks Maryland,
luota for the Hospital Corps has moi
been filed and this branch of the service
5ffers an unusual opportunity to men
With ordinary school education. who are
active and desire quick advancement.
All branches of the service are open
for enlistments, and the opportunitie
for promotion were never better. Men
who enlisted for the duration Of the
war are being rapidly disenrolled or
discharged and their places must be
filed in order TO man the ships which
are needed to bring the soldiers back
from France.
Young men can enlist between the
ages of II and a5 and can work their
way from ordinary seamen to the high
est rank in the American Navy.
One hundred Young men each year are
picked from the enlisted force and sent
to the Naval Academy at Annapolis to
be trained as officers, and this opening
gives every young man a splendid op-
portunity if he is energetic enough to
take advantage Of it.
For further information apply to the
Navy Recruiting Station, Calvert and
Lexington Streets, Baltimore, or the sub
station in the Aughinbaugh Building
or 113 Baltimore Street

have returned to Paris convinced
that the Senate does not repre-
sent the view Of the people of this
country and wants the draft COW
enant accepted by a plenary ses-
sion Of the conference without
debate.
This attitude savors of obsti-
macy, il moi arrogance, and will
not commend itself to a free peo-
pie who, however DESTROYS Of
standing behind its Chief Execu-
tive. feels that he is forcing his
opinions on the country rather
than seeking to discover its real
sentiments and as far as possible
ACT upon them. If Mr.. Wilson
has his way at the peace confer
.enee we shall perforce have been
made a party to an instrument
which, in the opinion Of wise and
dispassionate judges, abrogates
the Monroe Doctrine and ties us
I'D inextricably with other ma
lions in the enforcement Of the
provisions Of a league which over
rides the treaty making rights OF
the Senate and reduces the SOW
ereignty Of the nation.
II seems incredible that Presi-
dent Wilson, with all his i'm
doubted influence among Euro
pean statesmen, can persuade the
peace conference to forego dis
eussion OF draft covenant which,
having read at plenary session,
he incontinently boltvd back to
this country, not to explain it, but
simply to asseverate that it was
perfect in all its parts; that it re-
auired no amendment; that the
fate OF humanity hung upon it.
and that those who opposed it or
desired its amendment were pur-
blind, prejudiced and worse. 1t
IS true that France has become
more reconciled to the league
since, during the absence Of Mr.
Wilson, it has been decided that
Germany is to be deprived Of its
powers for future mischief for
generations. Clemenceau and the
rest. therefore, now see little
harm in the draft convention; in
fact. they believe that, as il
stands, it will help to keep Ger
many in her place and insure
peace among the other nations
Britain also is willing enough tc
accept a league which will make
the United States a prominent
factor in preserving the future
peace OF the world, and naturally
does not trouble itself much
about the clauses which are OBJ
iected to in this country. though
Tor a long time past she has ac
cepted the Monroe Doctrine il
its integrity.
One objection France and Brit
ain may be expected to have t.
the covenant is that if it is in

already pointed out, become

It's Grandmothers Recipe to keep

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 a good,
even color, which is quite sensible, as
we are living in an age when youth

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" 1t is very
popular because nobody can discover
it has been applied. Simply moisten
your comb or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time by morning
the gray hair disappears, but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appearance
of abundance which is so attractive.
