A CROSS-EYED SLANT.

Oscar Underwood, July 6: "The
conference at Lausanne apparently IS
no nearer a final and satisfactory So
luton of the difficulties that threaten
war in the Balkan states and Asia
Minor than was the case a year ago."
Ismet Pasha, July 6: IAN accord
has been reached between the Turks
and the allies and peace will probably
be signed within a week. An agree
ment has been reached on all points"
Constantinople dispatch, July 9:
'"The Angora government, after ex-
animation of the latest dispatches
from Lausanne, has authorized Ismet
Pasha to sign the peace treaty. The
announcement made this evening con-
firms the settlement reached at Lau-
ann yesterday by Ismet and the
delegates representing the allies"
In studying European diplomacy,
Mr.. Underwood evidently "sees
through a glass darkly."

Republican newspaper that "Presi-

and therefore they won't be widely

Jonathan Bourne, Jr., says:
"We believe, and sincerely hope that
the editor is wrong in his estimate of

IMPORT CONGESTION.

Imports have so congested the port
of New York that it is absolutely nee
essary to increase the working force
to take care of them, according to As
sistant Secretary of the Treasury
Moss. Mr.. Moss indicated that the
treasury department is considering
the ALLEGATION of the appropriations
available for the current year on a
basis that may require a supplemental
appropriation by the next congress
through the utilization of the greater
part of the funds during the early
months of the period. 1t is recalled
that President Harding, before he left
for his Alaskan trip, suggested that
an emergency existed in the customs
service which would have to be met
Congestion of the ports with foreign
goods is sufficient commentary on the
Democratic statement that the Ford

though imports were always large
enough to put American business out
of commission. Large purchases OF
raw and semi-raw products to be usec
in manufacturing here, and the en-
HANGED purchasing power of a people
enjoying prosperity account in great
degree for the situation.

SAGE TEA KEEPS

Brings Back Its Beautiful
Lustre At once

Gray hair, however handsome, de-
notes advancing age. We all know the
advantages of a youthful appearance.
Your hair is your charm. 1t makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray and looks streaked, just a few
applications of Sage Tea and Sulphur
enhances its appearance a ~hundred-fold.
Don't stay grayl Look youngl
Either prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store a bottle of
'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" which is merely the old-time
recipe improved by the addition of 9TH
CT ingredients. Thousands of folks
recommend this ready-to-uSe prepara-
ton, because it darkens the hair beau-
tifully, besides, no one can possibly tell,
as It darkens so naturally and evenly.
You moisten a sponge or soft brush
with it, drawing this through the hair,
taking one small strand at a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears; af-
ter another application or two, its
natural color is restored and it becomes
thick, glossy and hstrous, and yor ap-

This sentiment i'm e diately
changed when he had the audacity to
make a raid across the line into New
Mexico, where he wantonly murdered
a number of American citizens.
This act of defiance aroused the
American people and a considerable
military expedition under General
Pershing crossed into Mexico by per-
mission Of the government of the lat
ter country, and endeavored to hunt
the bandit down and capture him.
The undertaking proved anything
but a brilliant success, for instead of
catching Villa, that desperate cap
tured a small party of colored Ameri-
can cavalrymen, whom he sent back
uninjured to their command.
Public sentiment in Mexico vas
greatly aroused over this invasion by
American troops, with the result that
President Carranza promptly reversed
himself and in insulting terms de-
manded the withdrawal of the United
States soldiers.
After taking refuge in the noun
tans when General Oregon defeated
him and scattered a large part of his
command, Villa finally made terms
with the president of Mexico, by which
he was given very valuable ranch
property valued at 81 100000 in eX-
change for which the notorious ban
dit agreed to settle down and lead q
peaceable life.
He appears to have made good his
pledge in this respect, for as far as
heard from he did not take the war
path again or go on any raids.
One thing in relation to this mat
ter has never been satisfactorily ex
>, planned, and this has to do with tn
fact that no effort ever appears t.

MOST FAMOUS
MODERN BANDIT

Although an arrant murderer it
must be conceded that "Pancho" Villa
was the most attractive bandit and
desperate of modern times.
In his early career as an outlaw, his
hand was turned against the heads of
successive Mexican governments, who,
except for the fact that they claimed
to be officially in power, were little if
any better in character than this fam
Gus guerilla leader who contested
their supremacy in Mexico.
At one stage of his activities Villa
came very nearly being entitled to be
considered a patriot, and that was
when he first came to public notice
as a commander in the field support
ing the well-intentioned but Inflated
Madero.
Even at his worst he always re-
tanned one redeeming feature and that
was fearless personal courage, and it
was this endowment that made him
such a successful leader and attracted
so many Mexicans to his standard.
In all fights and skirmishes, some
of which were almost entitled to be
designated as battles, ne was always
in the forefront of the fight and act
ually led his men into the thickest of
the fray.
He was not a commander who or
dered his men to the front meanwhile
staying behind in safety himself.
Instead of this, in all his brushes
and engagements he always sought
the point of most danger, and on ac-
count Of coming out of such encoun'
tiers unscathed his superstitious anC
ignorant followers believed him to be
possessed Of a charmed life and thai
he could not be killed in warfare.
Of course the truth is the Mexican
troops sent against him were 81
scared of his name and were sucl
wretched marksmen that Villa coulC
afford to take chances with them.
As long as this guerrilla chieftail
confined his operations to the countr.
south of the American line a grea

Wild Bears Become PIauus.

From the few swine that were let
loose on the island of Santa Cruz IN
1917 have come race of ferocious
wild boars They have lost virtually
every trace Of their original dOmes-
ITCHY, and have become powerful wild
beasts as fleet of hoof as deer. They
mature enormous tusks, long hoofs
and bristles that are like wire, and
are the plague of the ranch people
who have sought TO develop the island
for sheep and cattle raising.
The boars tear down fences faster
than the ranehers can build them,
they root up garden stuff as soon as It
springs from the ground, and not in.
frequently they have been known to
gore horses, sheep and cattle. Young
lambs are one of their favorlte foods
and in the killing and eating Of them
they show shin and cunning and

tactics of wolves.

ANCIENT LAW SILL STANDS
Ediet Issued by Roman Praetor 1920
Years Ago Held to Be Enforce
abIs in Scotland.

A Roman praetor's edict of 2,290
years ago still affects innkeepers and
Ostlers in Scotland. A Drainie farmer
handed his horse to an ostler to be
stabbed and the ostler placed it into
double stable, where, shortly after, a
second horse was placed These two
horses had previously shared a stall
and were known to be quiet and not
quar- elsome The farmers horse was
sound when it was put into the stable.
but when he returned for 1t, IL was
found to be lame on the off fore leg
and two days later, on the advice of a
veterinary surgeon, was destroyed.
The farmer sued the ostler and the
Judge dismissed the case, which was
appealed The appeal judge held that
in law the Praetorian edict of 367 B.
G. applied and that the injury was
not due to 'the act of God" The
lord justice-clerk said the case raised
questions of Importance and difficulty.
The first question they had to decide
was whether a stabler fell within the
rraetor's edict. After carefully con
sldering the arguments adduced and
surveying the authorities cited, he was
unable to find in modern law any war
rant for the suggested discrimination.
He was Of the opinion that stablers,
as well as inkeepers, according to the
law of Scotland, fell within the edict.
