Plants set in the open ground may
be protected from frost by turning
small boxes over them and covering
the boxes with little earth. Old
berry boxes are sometimes used for
this purpose. but should be covered
completely BY soil, as the plants will

exposed boxes as if left in the open

Graft in Ship
Repair Bills
Ten Per Cent. of Seven Million
Dollars Lost to Government,
Says Travelling Auditor

New York, Nov. 29.-TeStimony that
10 per cent of the $4,000 900 Shipping
Roard repair bills in the South At.
lantic district was graft was given
here today to the Walsh congressional
committee examining into shipping
board affairs. The allegation was
made by Charles Banzahf, a travelling
auditor of the board out of New York.
1t was contained in letter written
by the witness to the general COMP
troller of the board last July read
here today by Chairman Walsh and
identified by the witness.
Means by which the alleged graft"
was made possible, the witness testi-
fed, included lack of inspections, fall
ure to check repair work, overcharges
for materials and labor and unneces-
sary repairs. He cited an instance Of
a repair engineer, who, he said, had
sat in pilot house and approved re-
pair bills amounting to thousands of
dollars" without ever looking at tho
work. He declared inspectors had
been told that costs were none of
their business and that there was a
! spirit to make. rather than cut down
repair work.

DIR. Ricc's New Book.

The friends Of Rev. John A. Rice
will be glad to know that his book
The Old Testament i'm the Life OF To-
day is just out. 1t is published by
the Mcmillan Company and is gotten
up in their best form. A competent
critic says Of the book, "The average
church-goer and Bible student needs
a more vital approach to the Old Tcs.-
ament; yet he Is perplexed and pain
cd at the seeming upheaval to his Le-
licfs involved IN revising his old fa-
miliar points Of view. DR.. Rice is a
guide who makes this difficult road a
fascinating one.
Not with texts and verses, but with
men and movements. leadership d ia
great messages does he spond his
time. He traces the growth OF the
material in the Old Testament from
the life of the Hebrew people. He
transfers the great issues from their
ancient setting to meet the needs OF
these stirring times.
Thus the results of modern scholar
ship in history and theology are made
available for laymon. They will see
that the Bible student can accept their
discoveries and yet keep all that is
essential in vital Christian doCt:hlC."

SAGE Ten TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmothcr's recipe TO bring
color, lustrc and youthfulness
to hair when faded,
streaked or gray,

That beautiful, even shade Of
Ozark, glossy hair can only be had
by brewing mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur. Your hair is your
charm. 1t makes or mars the face.
When 1t fades, turns gray or streak
ed, just an application or two of
Sage and sulphur enhances its ap-
pearance hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition OF
ether, ingredients at a small cost,
ell ready for use. 1t is called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound. This can always be de-
pended upon to bring back the nat
Cral color and lustre of your hair.
Everybody uses "wyeth's" Sage
and Sulphur Compound now be-
cause 1t darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen
o sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through the hair, taking
one small strand at time: by
morning the gray hair has disap-
+ cared. and after another applica-
ton 1t becomes beautifully dark
and appears glossy and lustrous.
This ready-to-use preparation is
delightful toilet requisite for those
who desire dark hair and youth
full appearance. 1t is not intended
Tor the cure. mitigation or preven-
ton OF disease,
