Johnny Evers Looking

The picture of Johnny Flvers, for mer star second baseman in the Ma tiona1 League, now shivering out in the "nanageriaI' cold after giving 20 years of his life 70 the pastime, may yet be worked over into a movie thriller. However, James B. Ganney Is still strong for the ex-Cub.
 'tIf I owned a big league ball club I'd make Evers the manager without the slightest hesitation. He would be a success if he sat on the bench in street clothes, Johnny in uniform was live wire, always fighting for his team. But he is sensible fellow and is one of the smartest students ot baseball I've ever met. I can't un- derstand why Johnny is overloo ooked His loyalty to the National League tr the days of the Feds helped save the game, and, in my opinion, he should i be provided with 8 position of some | kind"

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with brew of Sage Tea and Sui

ance. this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage

gradients, all ready to USE at very
little cost. This simple mixture can
be depended upon to restore natural

a well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound now because
it .darkens so naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been APP
plied-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it thru your. hair, taking
one strand at time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, 1t is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and beautiful.

Des Moines. Feb. 2t.-The Amer
lean Legion is going to keep a closer
eye on politics thruout Iowa in the
future.
In a general letter sent to all posts
this week. John MacVicar. state sec
rotary, urges the different units to
exercise their full duty as citizens
and to take an active part in run
ming the government thru the ball
lot box.
He suggests that the posts in the
larger cities work out block or
ganization, which will have a special
committeeman In each block to keep
check on political activities and to
bring pressure to bear when neces-
sary to safeguard the interests of
the community against dangerous
matters in government.
This is the first time that any Of
fetal of the legion has urged the ac-
tive entrance of members into po-
iitieal affairs. MaeNicar states:
while the American Legion con-
stitution does provide that the
American Legion shall be absolutely
non political, yet it also provides
that each member shall perform his
full duty as citizen.
II heartily endorse a recently ex-
pressed sentiment that to be 100 per
cent American, one must be 100 per
cent voter. and that the most effec-
tive curb to. radicalism is the intel
ligent and patriotic use of the bal
lot. IL to perform these duties in a
practical way would interfere with
the constitution Of the American Le-
gion, it would be very simple mat
ter for the ex-service men to organ
ize informally into an ex-service
mems conference club. and thus
avoid any question of propriety.
Some months ago a young dough-
boy just discharged from service
was overheard to say. The boys are
coming home 100000 strong, and
believe me, we are going to have a
hand in running this mans govern
ment.' am wondering when the
more than 100000 returned service
men in Iowa are going to take a
hand in running this mans govern
ment.'"
The state secretary's letter is at
tached to copies of motions adopted
by the Des Moines post urging a
dollar a day bonus. a special session
of the legislature, a ward system
of Legion units, and several other
reforms in the organization.

Flu this Year is Milder.

The rules given above, recon-
mended by the New York city
Board of Health, are guides to good
health at all times. Particularly
should they be followed just now,
when Influenza is again abroad in
the land. Authorities agree, how
ever, that the flu this year Is less
severe than in the last epidemic
the attacks are shorter and tho
death rate lower. in fact, many
physicians insist that the epldcnics
now being reported from so many
sections are not flue at all. but sim
oily the old fashioned grip.
Keep the Air Passages Healthy.
While we know very little more
about the flu now than we did last
year--the germ Itself has never
been positively hentified--stil most
authorities agree that the flu germs
are breathed In. II the system is In
good shape and the membrane or
lining Of the air passages Is in
healthy condltion--these germs are
thrown off.
A good plan is TO melt Httie
Vicks NapoRub in q spoon. night
and morning. and inhale the yapors,
also apply little up the nostrils
several times n day. especially just
before being exposed to crowds.
Treat Az Colds Promptly.
Above all, keep free from colds,
rs colds irritate the lining OF the air
passages and make them real
breeding grounds for germs Prompt
use of Vick's VaporRub aids In pre-
venting colds. For head colds, sore
throat or hoarseness, rub Vicks well
over the throat and chest and cover
with warm flannel cloth. For deep
chest colds, severe sore throat or
bronchitis, hot wet towels should
first be applied to the throat, chest
and back between the shoulder
