MORALS OF CIRCUS
PEOPLE ARE HIGH
CIRCUS COMING TO MOSCOW is
A WELL ARRANGED CITY
WITHIN ITSELF

The elevated standard of morality
of circus men and women is a revela
ton to one who is with them from
day to day, and is their close com
panion. The atmosphere and environ
ment seems charged with health anc
happiness, vigor and virtue. Drunk
enness is never permitted in any form
Immediate discharge, no matter who
the offender may be, is the penalty
and except in the ranks of the work
ingmen, few, if any, are ever found
guilty. The very nature of the circus
business forbids immoral or vicious
excuses. The hours are long and
the work is hard, therefore, the vigor
of the brain and body must not be
dissipated.
The women of the circus are not
permitted to engage in conversation
with anyone not directly connected
with the show. Most of them at
tend church each Sunday and it is
not infrequent for minister of the
gospel to be invited to lead divine
services on Sabbath afternoon. 1t
has always been the aim of the man
agement of the Hagenbeck- Wallace
Circus which comes to Moscow We'd
nesday, August 6, for two perform
ances, to inculcate spirit of good
fellowship and enduring affection,
founded upon common respect and
esteem.
1t demands that everyone connected
with the show be polite and civil, as
sist patrons in trouble, maintain
spirit of harmony, in fact, make the
visit of the people pleasing one that
they may wish to return on another
day to the circus. Gambling is
strictly prohibited, and fine awaits
the one caught using profane langu-
age.
The Hagenbeck- Wallace Circus is
a little city within itself. There are
almost thousand people connected
with the gaeria ronzntg. oati age G
with the great organization. In any
:ity Of 1000 souls it is not hard to
lind few bad persons and it is these
hat the management endeavor to dis
,over and eliminate as soon as pos
,ible. A premium is placed on the
,olite and hard working employees.

Summer Complaint in Children

There is not anything like so many

SAGE TEA TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Bring
Color, Lustre and Youthfulness to
Hair when Faded, Streaked, Gray

! That beautiful, even shade Of dark
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture Of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances its appearance a hun
dredfold
/ Don't bother to. prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at small cost, all
ready for use. It is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can
always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color and lustre of
your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another appli-
cation it becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation is delight
full toilet requisite for those who de-
sire dark hair and youthful appear
ance.- 1t is not intended for the cure,
or prevention of disease.

COMMENTS BY BLANCHE,

Dear Social Corner Friends: Many
people do not care to write or receive
postcards, but they are in the miner
ity. The small space is large enough
to condense MAN. messages. No doubt
it is in good form to Only write the
Yuletide greetings at the closing Of
the year, out certainly disappointing
TO receive such brief lines.
When only the name is signed the
blank is left for the Imagination OF
tie recipient to fill. Perhaps time was
limited, Or a rich relative was at the
phone or the baby was about to ey-
piore the cellar from the top stair, Of
the chimney was on fire or nothing
doing. Reminds me of story, a true
tale with q grain OF salt added. A
girl wanted 10 write a letter bUt could
not think of anything so filled the
pages with: forgot what did"
Letter writing is a different prob
lem if upon domestic subjects; they
can be written journal fashion. one or
two pages at a sitting, making it less
of a task and recording details t,Yt
would be omitted if written in hur-
ry.
North Dallota-Glad you could enjoy
the fine weather if for a short time

ETA BARRIERS NEW HOME

Social Corner Sisters:-I thank
Crimson Rambler, Aunty and Primrose
for Christmas cards; and Interested
Reader for the pretty reminder of the
New Year.
1 have been moving and settling,
painting and papering, unpacking, ett.,
since Nov. goth, beside acting as IL
brarian in the public library two days
in a week and doing the work for a
family of five, so l have done little
writing beyond a few Christmas cards
and letters.
My new home is an old -fashioned
house on Plainfield street, with gable
windows and a real old time bake
oven in the kitchen. A real old New
England village home that has been
despised by the present generation and
so vacant for some time; but t3e real
home remains. That home air is
found in few new houses, the spirit of
the Old New England gentlewoman of
the past. l can almost think she sis
knitting at the sunny front window
n'her big rocker, or that l shall meet
her on the winding stairs.
l hope some of the sisters will look
me up some day. Ask for the Library.
Blue Bird has flown in several times,
but it is early yet for Blue Birds.
Birds and flowers are always welcome,
also sisters and editors.

HOW TO DO THINGS.

Dear Cornerites: These instructions
may be found useful:
Trying Out Leaf Lard-This is pre-
pared from inside fat Of a pig, which
goes under the name CT flare or leaf.
Care must be taken to obtain this fat
very fresh. as it soon becomes tainted.
Skin it carefully. removing any dis
colored parts or traces of blood, Cut
it in small pieces and put in a double
saucepan and let boil. AS the fat melts
strain it carefully eff until the f1brous
parts are left fairly dry. When ready
pour in jars AMI keep airtight. The
residue can be chopped and used in
the making of lentil soup. 1t is fine for
cakes, etc.
How to Remove Old Wallpaper
Procure a whitewash brush (the new
er the better) and bucket of cold
water, and literally soak the paper
from ceiling to floor all around the
room. Spend plenty OF time over he
Wetting process, as the thorough soak
ing of the paper is the secret of get
ting it off easily. Do net use warm
water, as it dries up too quickly to be
effective. When well soaked use a
painters scraper, and if there are
many thiclnesses scrape Off the outer
papers and then proceed TO soak and
scrape off those underneath. Do not
spend tCo much tipe in laborioS S
Scraping. Keep on soaking the paper
and thus avoid it. Should a varn;sh-
ed paper require stripping mix up a
strong solution of potash or soda and
