COMB SAGE TEA IN
 HAIR ID DARKEN II
It's Grandmother's Recipe to keep her Locks Dark,
 Glossy, Beautiful.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grand- mothers recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when youth full appearance is of the greatest ad- vantage.
 Nowadays, though. we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients. called ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" Ii is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morning the gray hair disappears but what de- lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, be- sides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, 1t also pro- duces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which Is so attractive. This ready to- use preparation is de- lightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance: IL is not intended for the cure, mitiga- ton or prevention of disease.

COUNTY FAIR IN "BlG TOWN'
How New York City Cousin Won the Day Over Boy From the
 Farm.

The country boy had been visiting his city cousin for a week and was about to return to the rural districts, says the New York Sun. The city cousin had shown the country boy all the sights-Broadway and Times square, the parks, the zoo, the subways and about all the other things which the out-of-town boy would be interested in. During the last few days of the stay in the city of the country boy the two were comparing the rural districts and the big town.
 You know" said the city cousin proudly, lone can buy anything In this town that Is grown, manufactured or produced In any part of the world. All you need is the mdney and some one here will surely have to sell what you want"
 "Well, there's one thing that you don't have here and can't duplicate that we have" returned the country boy, "and I've missed 1t while I've been in town"
 "Why, what's that?" asked his cousin, who had tried valiantly to amuse his relative from the country.
 "The county fair" triumphantly an- swered the one from the outlying dis tricts. For few moments the city cousin was stumped. He didn't answer, while his relative went on to relate the splendors of the fairs. Suddenly he grabbed his country relatives arm and virtually dragged him into subway. A downtown express sped them toward Fourteenth street. Here they alighted and walked up into Union square.
 With a smile of triumph the city cousin led his rural relative into one of the "dime museums" along Four teenth street and said: Here you are! Shooting galleries. calliope music, for tune tellers, pictures of Salome dancers and everything you want, and 1t only costs a cent to try them out. Go to it! We've got everything in this town you have-and more!"

 SPECIAL OFFICER KILLED
John W. Cabiniss and J0hn Cross Die in Gun Fight-One Man Is
 Held In Jail.

Little Rock, Aug. 13.--City Detec- tive John w. Cabiniss was shot and killed by Special United States Depu- ty Marshal John Cross about nine o'clock last night, and Cross immed- lately afterward was killed by Detec- tive o. N Martin. The shooting oc- cured at Twenty-first and McAlmont streets
 The double killing evidently was the result of belief On the part of the po- lice officers that Cross was desper- ate character, and the mistaken be- lief of Cross that the officers intended to attack him. Cross has been employ ed at the Rock Island railroad shops at Riddle, IS a guard, since the shop mems strike began.
 Detective Martin was slightly cut in ,he right fcot with broken glass and the fact that blood was seen running from his shoe led to report that he also had been wounded during the exchange of shots.
 Walter Greenacre, 1923 1-2 East Ninth street, also a guard at the Bid dle shops, was with Cross at the time of the shooting and was arrested and locked up at police headquarters, where he is being held without bond.

G. 0. PES WILL FIGHT FOR MAINE
Extensive Campaign Planned to Car
 ry the "BarOmeter" State.

Washington, Aug. 12.-The Repub- licans are preparing to train all the big guns of the administration on the unsuspecting state of Maine.
 Maine has a peculiar position in the political economy of the United States. It will hold it's congressional elections on September II, while all the rest of the country must wait until the first Tuesday after the first Mon day in November before it can regis ter choice at the polls.
 Maine, therefore, becomes pivotal. Maine is the straw which shows the velocity of the political winds in one direction or the other. It is seldom indeed that the Democrats have a chance in Maine, but if they can cut down the normal Republican majori- ty in September they always look up- on that fact as an indication of big drift through the rest of the country. The Maine barometer-which indi- cates both fair and stormy weather as you view it-seldom goes wrong.
 Accordingly the Republicans are going to beat the tom-toms in Maine this year as they were never beaten before. Half of President Harding's S cabinet is to be sent into the land of the pine and the fir to drum up the Republican vote and impress the rest of the country with the fact that God is in the heavens and the Republican party still lives.

When

A shrewd old gentleman described an acquaintance as being "so busy with his good intentions that he never had time to carry out any of them" Most of us have met that acquaintance" There are persons who have no susn E. cion of their own seltishness and use lessness in the world, their good inten- tions have completely blinded them to their lack of action. They dream mag nificent dreams of the good that might be accomplished-if only conditions were a little different They openly count the efforts and the benefactions around them as scarcely worth while, when so much more might be accom- plished if only individuals and society were in better shape.

INDUSTRIAL CRISIS
 WORRY TINE G. 0. P.
Rail and Coal Strikes Causing Anxiety Among the Leaders-May De-
 eide Elections.

Washing. on, Aug. 13.-Wha. will be road strikes?
 This is the question of chief concern at present to political leaders, arous- ing anxiety among the Republicans and hopeful expectations among the Democrats. That the result of the congressional election next November may be determined by the sentiment created by those strikes and the eff forts of the Harding administration to settle them, has become a proba- bility that is entering into the calcu lations of both major parties.
 One of the principal Republican campaign managers told me today that in his opinion the fate of the Re publican party at the polls this year depends upon the industrial situation at the time of the election, and upon , the public judgment of the record of the administration in dealing with strikes.
 If strikes continue to hamper busi- ness and incommode the public gener- ally, and the political atmosphere be- comes surcharged with the feeling that the administration is to blame for not averting or minimizing these in- dustrial disturbances, the Republi- cans, he admitted, are likely to fare badly in the election. They may lose the House and suffer a marked reduc- tion of their majority in the Senate Discomfort Widespread.
 The strikes have greatly aggravat- ed situation already regarded by Re publican party chieftains as too threatening for comfort. The evi- dence of widespread discontent, of dissatisfaction with the administra- tion has been unmistakable. Conser- vative senators and representatives, standing for all the administration stands for, have been routed in the primaries by progressive and radical Republicans, standing for much, if not everything, that is abhorrent to the administration.

Many Idle Men Find Work as Result
 of American Labor Troubles.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Great Brit aims entire industrial situation has been favorably affected by the twin strikes in the United States.

 Cracks Whip.

Washington. Aug 11.-A flexible tariff plan, proposing authority for the president to increase or decrease tariff rates in the pending bill until July 1, 1924. was approved today by the Sem ate. The vote was 36 to 20, with three Republicans opposing and two Demo- crats supporting it.
 With the flexible tariff fight out of the way tha Senate approved provis- ions dealing with unfair methods of competition and unfair acts in the i'm portation of merchandise into the United States. It then began consid- eration of the so-called scientific amendment.
 With many notifications in the ori- ginal plan, proponents of the, flexible tariff, urged by President Harding, had expressed confidence that they could muster enough votes to write it into the tariff measure. Changes approved by the Senate, after hours of wrangling and roll calls, had re- moved objections of a number of Re publican senators.
 President Harding also took hand outlining his views to several senators who were summoned to the White House. and later in letter to Chair man McCumber of the Finance Com mittee, which was read to the Sen ate.

PRESIDENT UNABLE
 TO SETTLE STRIKE
Collapse of Peace Move Increases Prospect of General Tie -Up-Ex-
 ecutives Unyielding.

Washington, Aug. 13.-President Harding's latest effort to settle the railroad shopmen's strike collapsed here today, On the seniority issue, and the country now faces the prospect of "a general transportation tie-up, and the non-striking operatives of the railroads contributing to the cause of the shopmen by refusing to take out defective equipment or to work under protection of armed guards.
 Efforts of the heads of the Big Four brotherhoods, in the role of mediators for the shopmen, it was disclosed, fail ed last night in a final conference with the committee of the Association of Railroad Executives, brought about it is understood, at the suggestion of President Harding
 At that conference the brotherhood officials proposed that the issue of seniority, instead of being referred back to the Railroad Labor Board, as President Harding suggested, be sub mitted to some form of ou side arbi- tration. That was their only sugges- tions.
 It was empha ically rejected by the railroad executives, who insisted shat they must stand their ground on the seniority issue, and that railroad em- ployes, under the decision of the Rail- road Labor Board, when they go on strike in defiance of the boards rul- ings, automatically cease to be em- ployes of the railroads or under the jurisdiction of the board, and lose their seniority status.
 Failure Confirmed.
 President Harding was informed this morning by the Railroad Execu- tives' Committee that at nights con- ference had failed, and that there ap- peared to be no prospect of settle ment. The president is said to have expressed great regret over the un- favorable outcome, but he made no further suggestions. Following the White House conference, the Railroad Executives Committee, headed by T. Dewitt Cuyler, returned to New York
 Officials of the brothsrhoods and striking shopmen did not make public the unions reply to tho president, but took the position tonight that the door is not closed to further negotiations. l.. E. Sheppard, president of the ord CT of Railway Conductors, speaking for the unions, said:
 We don't know just where We are at. We are awr iting developments. We don't want to say anything that Whether we will is doubtful. We are hopeful of finding some way to help Whether we will is doubtful. eW are Soing to stay here at least until Con- gress convenes next Tuesday, and al- so to be on hand should the president Mant us.

NEW PEST MENACES COTTON
Leaf Worm Has Spread Over Two
 States and Is Moving North.

Little Rock, Aug. 13-With boil weevil infestation general, the cotton growers of Arkansas now are faced with another insect problem, accord ing to bulletin received by the Ga- zetse yesterday from the Delta labor atory at Tallulah, La, conducted by the U. s. Bureau of Entomology. The bulletin calls atention to the fact that the cotton leaf worm has spread over most of Texas and Louisiana and is headed north through Arkan- sas.
 Damage from the leaf worm varies with crop conditions, according to the bulletin, which is prepared by Dr. B. R. Coad, director of the station. In sections where the crop has Aatured to a considerable extent the leaf worm can do little damage. Also the insect cannot cause much damage ln crops thoroughly infested with boll weevils. In such cases about the only damage will be in causing premature opening and possible deterioration or the grade of the staple. In some sec tions, where there has been excesslVe rainfall and consequent boil rot, the worms will remove the foliage and permit the sun to shine through.
 The leaf worms spread fast, it IS reported, and within two weeks Will cover the cotton growing section. by that time a large part of the crop Will be matured and li.tle damage will re- suit. However, in sections where the crop has not matured because of the late planting season, some method or control is suggested.
 The old form of control was the use of paris green, which was applied by the bag and pole method. ms gives satisfactory control, according to the bulletin, but causes more or less burning of the plant. Powdered lead arsenate gives satisfactory re- suits. It does not burn the plant, al though not quite so poisonous to the worms. Calcium arsenate has been used in later years, it was said, ana gives much better results. There are other arsenicals which may be used, such as zinc arsenite, magnesium ar senate. London purple, and other trade mixtures of arsenicals. The highly soluble arsenicals should De avoided. such as sodium and potassium arsenate and arsenite, as they are ln- furious to the plant.
 The laboratory officials have com pleted a canvass of the available chemicals and find there is shortage Not more than 3,0OO,000 pounds are a. vailable, it is said, which is far short of the amount needed. Manufacturers have been notified of the emergency and stocks are rolling southward. kN The bag and pole method is satis- factory for applying the poison, and the dusting method used in boil weev- il control may also be used satisfac- torily. Planters should watch their cotton, according to Dr. Coad, and de- eide whether it will pay to poison the leaf worm
