NO LEMON PUT IN LEMON PIES
 IN NEW YORK

New York, March 11.-Lemon pies without a drop of lemon are among the disillusioning discoveries of the Department of Health in its cam paign for the establishment of food standards which will at least make it possible for the people of New York to know what they are eating. The pies were found to contain corn starch, tapioca, rice flour, coal tar or vegetable coIoring and citral with an oily base.
 In one instance the investigation showed that vase1ine had been flavor ed with a synthetic extract and used in the crust, but this is not usual. The meringue which decorated the so-called lemon pie was made of sul- phur dioxide, b1eached, aerated, clari- fled glucose. The glucose after being aerated is forced up so that it looks 1 like the white of eggs.
 1 Other Investigations have brought 1 to light the fact that many residents | of New York are eating dyed cakes | under the impression that they are l getting a certain amount of nourish-
 ment from eggs which give the cakes i their rich golden color. Instead this color is supplied by a coal tar dye, and ! as a matter of fact no eggs whatever l have entered the cake.
 Not all coal tar products are con
 sidered objectionable and there are i certain certified coal tar products whose use in foods is permitted by | the United States Department of Agriculture.
 Dr. Royal S, Copeland, Commis- | sioner of Health, seeks an inyestiga- | tion and standar dization of fu d sold | in New York. He wants food sold | under it's rightfu1 name and without 1 being colored or otherwise treated to 1 deceive the public.
 To-day" Edward W. Hoctor, dieti-
 tian of the Food and Drug Depart
 ment, has reported, i've get in mince ! pie a few raisins, plenty of corn starch and some burnt sugar. That is | all" These ingredients are not harm i fu1 in the view of the agents of the i Department of Health, and they ! maintain, however, that this does moi 1 constitute a. mince pie, which mus | include, meat, suet and other in 1 gredients. Ole Salthe, director of the Bureau
 of Food and Drugs, is in charge O.
 the investigations which are now be
 ing carried on in pastry following LII
 the recent inquiry on which have
 been based the proposed standard l for ice cream will be proposed afte
 this field has been thoroughly gont
 over and a fair standard arrived at l The bureau later will take up tn
 subject of soft drinks, preserves ant
 iellies and will in time cover tn whole field of food as sold to tn
 people of New Yari.
 "Dr. Copelands idea is that tn
 well nourished man or woman is on who can resist disease,'' said MI Salthe, "and that in providing stand i ards to which the food sold in thi , city will have to conform the de
 partment will be building up tn
 health of the people. If people knoI
 what they are getting they can selec
 wisely, but if they are deceived as t
 the nature of the food which the i, buy their situation is hopeless"

CHILEANS KICK
 ON TREATMENT
 ACCORDED THEM
Say U. $. Manufacturers Don't Show Proper
 Regard.

Santiago, Chile, Mar. 11.-Chilean merchants complain of delays in de-
 livery of goods ordered from the
 United States and that in some cases
 their orders are not filled by North American me 1ufacturers, because the
 United States does not use the met
 rical system of measures
 Some Chileans declare that, instead
 of consulting the wishes and peculiar
 ities of the Chilean market, the
 American seems inclined to sell only
 what he has to offer and to impose
 conditions.
 As evidence of this situation the
 Chileans cite the case of a firm of
 wholesale dealers who placed in the
 United States a large order for light summer wear textiles which were needed here in December. They paid 30 per cent on account and after awaiting shipment were advised that it could not be made before the end of January. This cost that firm it's summer trade. The Chi1eans say that no explanations can condone that.
 The newsprint paper business is de- cIared to have been completely taken away from the United States by Nor
 wegian competitors because the Americans cannot guarantee deliV- cries nor prices. One firm of iron founders placed
 big order for material of various qualities and dimensions and two months later received advices that the material could not be shipped as
 the manufacturers could deliver goods | only to approximate metrical meas urementS.
 There is some complaint that there seems to be no system in the North | American export business and that ! the sellers have lost sight of the principle that the buyer is not forced l to buy unless he chooses, that he has | opportunity for choice and will buy ! where he obtains satisfaction in qua1- | ity, delivery and crecrts. Chile imports about. $15o,000.00C worth of goods annually and, now I that the nitrate export trade is boom | ing, there is an active market here | for machinery for new enterprises
 steel ,and iron for public works anG | railroads, iron for private industry | petroleum, textiles, sugar and automo. 1 piles.

 ELECTRIFYING
 MORE OF ROAD

Seattle, Mar. 10.-Today with the opening of the electrification of 209 additional miles of main line track of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad, that line now has 649 miles on which electric motive power is used. The formal opening of the Cas- cade identification in the State of Washington was featured today by the operation of a special train. This concludes the latest link of electri- fication over the great mountain ranges of the Northwest.
 New electric locomotives which have, by severe tests. proven their economy and power, have been pur- chased and are now beginning their tour of duty on the newly electrified line. The new locomotives, fifteen in number, are said to be among the most powerful ever built. Each de- velops a horse power of 4,200 and can haul a1l-steel passenger trains up the steep mountain grades at an average of twenty-five miles per hour. The freight type of engine can easily haul a train of 5000 tons.
 Except for the tracks of the New | York Central, from New York to Harmon, a distance of 32 miles, and | the New York, New Haven & Hart | ford Railroad, from New York to New Haven, 72 miles, the only inn portant identification of steam lines in America has been on the Chicago i Milwaukee & St. Paul.
 In addition to the tractiVe power | of the electric locomotive in the
 mountains, and it's recognized econ | omy, another feature, particularly l for passenger service, is the elimina- 1 ton of smoke and cinders. The l electrified portion of the system pen, l etrates 52 tunnels, with a total lengtf 1 of 54,000 feet, or more than ter
 miles, The total absence of smoh,
 eradicates the annoyance of opening
 and closing windows frequently, or
 failing to do this, to fill the car! 1 with smoke.

+ BACK HURTS
 BEGIN ON SALTS
Flush your kidneys occa. sionally if you eat meat
 regularly

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known- authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou- ble nervousness, constipation dizzi- ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at.- get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in q glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous sf,i tS is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for gen. erations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neu- tralize the acids in urine so it nc longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder disorders.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink which all reg uIar meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean anC the blood pure, thereby avoiding ser. ious kidney complications.-Ad

TO DARKEN HAIR
 APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back Its Natural Color, Gloss and
 AttractiVenesS.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur added. will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just F. few applications will prove a revela- ton if your hair is fading, streaIzed or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul- 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 tine addition or other ir- gredients.
 While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire 10 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 SC naturally, so evenly. You just dampen A sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking ore small strand al a time; by morn irs all gray hairs have disappeared and, after another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark glossy, soft and luxuriant.-Adv.

FRENCH MEDAL IS AWARDED TO
 SONG WRITER

In awarding the Legion of Honor to Lucien Boyer, author of the stir ring French war song "Madelon'' the French Government has shown how keenly it has appreciated the psycho- logical effect of that song in uphold ing the morale of the army during the darkest days of the war.
 ''Madelon' will rank with the most famous of the songs that have been sung by the troops of any army as they marched to battle and faced the threat of death.
 French generals have repeatedly mentioned in their official reports the 1ightning-1ike effect of the words and music of ''Madelon'' in restoring the morale and spirits of the French poliu at the time that the attack of the enemy was the most violent.
 In the barracks, on the muddy and shel1-torn roads leading to the front in the tide of battle that ebbed and flowed for months at a time around Verdun and a thousand other places the refrain of ''Made1on' was sung and whistled by millions of French soldiers, bringing to them new cour- age and new strength at a time when | their endurance and spirits were most sorely tried.
 When the Americans arrived in | France to take up their share in the l defense of civilization the air of Mad l elon" was speedily adopted by the American doughboy, who gave to it a prominent place in his repertoire | of songs.
 Few members, indeed, of the A. E. | F. ever sung "Made1on" in French
 except when they were emboldened
 to attempt it in the presence of thet. | French comrades. But the~tune was
 theirs, even though the words proved too much for the French vocabulary 1 of the average American soldier.
 And now that the war is over ana
 the A. E. F. has returned to tht
 United States, ''Madelon'' will gt
 down in history as a cherished pos
 session of the American army, al
 popular with our troops as it ha
 long since proved to be with tn
 soldiers of France.
