BLOT ON WARRIORS FAME
MiItiades, Victor at Marathon, Victim
of Overdue Eagerness for other
Military Successes.

Miltiades, the first great soldier of
Greece, is thought of by the world as
the heroic warrior who won the battle
of Marathon, B. c., 400. This battle
marked an important step toward the
ascendancy of Athens in Greece, and
Greece in the civilization of the world.
Besides superior numbers, the Persians
at Marathon were supported by their
fleet, but Pats and Artaphernes, their
commanders, were foiled at every point
and their army defeated with great
slaughter by Miltiades. In his exalted
position, flushed with honor, he prom
Used the AthenianS other victories.
Being granted ships and an expedition,
he proceeded against the island of
ParoS, which had helped Persia during
the war, and where he hoped to obtain
an abundance of gold. He failed in his
purpose there and was charged with
deceiving his countrymen, but died
from wounds received on the trip to
Paros before his fine Of so talents was
paid. History places Miltiades as a
great hero of his time and not as one
who was so inconsiderate in making a
foolish request, for the Athenians were
just as inconsiderate in granting such
a request.

GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with it to Re.

fitness.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
a few applications will prove a revela-
ton if your hair is fading, streaked or
gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, is trou-
blesome An easier way is to get a
bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound at any drug store all ready
for use. This is the old-time recipe
improved by the addition of other in
gradients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
no one can tell, because it does it so
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared, and,
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luxuriant.-Adv.

In spite of the fact that the British

marines, capable of surface speed OF
from % to % knots, the submarine as
a weapon of war is too slow and too
blind when it is submerged to be con-

Glaistner, who is recognized as a

presented good deal of evidence in
support of his contention.

Ravages of tuberculosis.
DANGER IN CLOSED WINDOWS.
National tuberculosis Association
Which Sponsors the Annual Sale
Of Red Cross Christmas Seals,
Reports 10000 Deaths
Each Year From the
Disease.

People who live in the smaller towns
and on farms have n great health adj
vantage over the city dwellers In that
they have ever an abundant supply of
fresh air and sunlight.
These two gifts Of nature, so lavish
ly bestowed, are not always appreciat-
ed to their fullest extent. They are
two Of the strongest weapons against
the menace of tuberculosis, or con-
sumption, as It is sometimes called.
But consumption is not unknown In
the rural districts The death rate is
sometimes as great In these sections as
In the more crowded localities, chiefly
because Of carelessness or indifference
~ laws Of health.
Few, indeed, are the farm houses
or the homes In the smaller cities and
Villages that cannot have an outdoor
sleeping porch. On the contrary, we
often find that the windows of sleep
ing rooms in the home are shut tight
In the mistaken belief that night air
Is harmful.
This paves the way for disease, espe-
cially tuberculosis, which generally at
lacks the lungs.
White Plague Kills 10000 Year.
The white plague claimed 10000
lives last year in the United States.
More than 100000 Americans are suf-
fering from II today. These figures
gre complied from reports of experts
all over the country and sent to the
National tuberculosis Association, the
leading agency In the country to COM
bat this disease. This organization Is
sponsor for the Red Cross Christmas
Seal sale, from which It's financial sup
port Is chiefly derived.
AS medical science has proved con-
sumption is both preventable and cura-
BILE, the suffering caused by this dis
esse Is largely unnecessary. Most tu-
berculosis victims are between the
ages of eighteen and forty-five.
Causes Half Billion Loss Annually.
These are the years when people
are most active, the years Of their
greatest production. The snuffing out
of these lives just when they are at
the height of their usefulness means
an annual loss to the country Of near
ly half billion dollars.
Fresh air is the cheapest Of medi-
Cines. Outdoor sleeping porches are
not only for the sick They help well
folks to keep well, and the country
dweller can have this aid to healthy
living at far less Inconvenience than
his city neighbor.
You can help directly by seeing that
you and your family are living under
the most healthful conditions possible.
