GRAY HAIR BECOMES
DARK AND BEAUTIFUL
Try Grandmother's Old Fa-
vorite Recipe of Sage
Tea and Sulphur

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur. properly compound
ed. brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded,
streaked or gray. Years ago the only
way to get this mixture was TO make
it at home, which is mussy and trou-
blesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound You will get n
large bottle of this old-time recipe i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, at very little cost. Every
body uses this preparation now, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years
younger.

But the province round about. espe-

Independence Without Resources.
Also, Lithuania can do nothing to
change matters. Her hope lies in as
sistance from Germany and Russia. By
force of circumstances she is driven
into alignment with these two, al
though from inclination she can waste
no love on either. for both have
wronged her terribly in the past. That
written alliance exists is doubtful.
that there is tacit understanding is
probable. All three countries have
common aims. They are disgruntled
with the present status of Europe and

bors by acting as land bridge be.

When given the boon Of independ-
ence in 1919. Lithuania was given
nothing with il. For centuries she had
been the back yard Of Russia, SO to
speak. For years during the world
war she had been devastated by Rus
sian and German armies. Neither
wealth nor resources nor experience
was available for use in building up

of Poland. Afterward. through a
scheme Of currency conversion she rid
herself Of paper marks and established

Finally, by means of a bold raid on

the nerveless hands Of Great Britain

troops number about 10000 and ire

American Ideals Rule in

Kovno, Lothuania, April 20
American influence is strong in Lith-
uania, stronger perhaps than in any
other country in this part of Europe.
American dollars have poured into
the land, American citizens have aided
in the work of reconstruction and
American ideals have acted as the
moral incentive to further efforts.
Nearly half as many people OF
Lithuanian stock live in the United
States as in the little European ma
ton which goes by the name of Lith-
uania, counting the old world popula-
ton of 100000. Many Of these emf
grants have done well in the land OF
sSneir adoption and almost all have
prospered sufficiently to aid their rela-
tives at home. Some send money back
to Kovno, some pay in New York the
passage of friends or connections de-
sirous Of joining them in the United
States.
No figures have been compiled of
the amount Of cash sent from Amer
lea to Lithuania through private
channels. but from both American and
Lithuanian sources I am told that it
, mounts into millions and comprises
a vital source Of revenue for the Lith-
. uanian government. Dollars pass mus

New NOrk. April 2O.-!a govern

York yesterday to discover the Isles
OF Rum.
1t returned last night successful,
with six cases officially charjed Of,
the Jersey shore, II miles southcas;
CT Ambrose channel.
When the Associated Press several
months ago first reported extensive
liquor smuggling off Highlands, fed
eral prohibition officials were inclined
10 scott ut the presence of n slzeabic
liquor fleet.
Thursday. however, Palmer Can
field, new federal prohibition director
for New York, decided TO get first
hand information and took band
of newspaper men with him down the
harbor on the coast guard cutter Man
haitian.
Although he did not see a drop of
liquor. he returned convinced there
was plenty under the matches of the
foreign craft riding at anchor out
side the three-mile limit.
Mr.. Garfield critically inspected the
feet, which had shrunk from seven
teen vessels to six; declined an invi-
tation to board the flagship Istar, was
"sassed" by one of her officers. and
on the way home frankly denounced
the rum craft as ocean buzzards pluck
ing at the heart of the nation.
He held the fleet accountable for
the smuggling ashore of 100000 cases
of liquor a year and declared that TO
combat the smugglers, it was absolute
ly necessary TO have an adequate
water patrol supplemented by a suffi.

Lithuania Looks to u S.

Look to America for Inspiration.
The United States was the first OF
the western powers to recognize "de
iure" the independence Of Lithuania.
consequently, it is to the United
States rather than to Great Britain
and France that Lithuania looks for
sympathy in problems for interna
tional politics.
"The allies have lost all influence
in Lithuania through their trucking
attitude on the Wilma question" Pre-
mier Galvanauskas told me in an in
terview. at is to the United States
that we look for moral inspiration.
Neither by virtue of size nor popu-
lation would Lithuania ordinarily be
called upon to play a role of import
ance in the concert of European ma
tons. By virtue of geographical posi-
ton. however. she has come to figure
largely on the program. On her rela-
tons with Poland depend to a con-
siderable extent the peace and tran
guilty of Eastern Europe.
The bone of contention between Po-
land and Lithuania is wilma. Both
sides passionately maintain that il be-
longs to them. Both scornfully refuse
to compromise. Poland has possession
of the prize and Lithuania wants to
grab it.

1t takes only a few croakers t.
make a lot Of noise.
A farmer once walked up to hotel.
keeper and asked him il he would buy
two carloads of frogs legs.
1.-TWO carloads ?" exclaimed the man
II couldn't use them in twenty years
"Well then, 20 or 80 bushels?"

1.-TWO dozen?"
"Yes."
A few days later the man brought
in three pairs of legs. "You see
live next to the pond" exclaimed the
farmer. "By the croaking I heard
thought there were million frogs
When drained the pond, ! found
there were only three"
Something Of the same kind might
be discovered if we could sift down
the croaking that is sometimes heard
regarding the failure Of cooperative
enterprises.
1t may be true that the field of far.
mers' activities is dotted with grave.
stones of cooperative associations that
have failed, and the pessimistic per
son, in looking over the records OF
these ventures may be justified in do
ing a little croaking.
But if the pessimistic farmer were
to examine the headstones of these de-
funct cooperatives little more care.
fully, he would discover that all OF
those that have failed have common
characteristic. He will find that the
dead cooperative organizations were
usually either consumer cooperatives
or organizations that combined COOP
erative marketing with cooperative
buying, or merchandising of some 9th
er sort.
In other words, they were not exclu,
sively cooperative marketing organi-
cations.
