AN OLD RECIPE:
 ID DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray Faded Hair Dark and
 Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com pounded, brings back the natural color and llstre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way 10 get this mixture was to make it at home. which is mussy and troublesome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Compound" You will get a large bottle of this old-time rec ipe improved by the addition of other ingredients at very little cost. Everybody uses this prepara- tion now, because no one can pos sibly 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 a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after an other application of two. your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.

Seeing America Some Time.

 An abrupt command to See America First may attempts to dictate your course. There must be thousands of Americans who would never have thought of seeing Europe first if they had not been ordered to go there by way of Niagara Falls and the Yosemite The war by nterposng a curtain of fire. effective. You had America first unless you made up your mind to wait indei- nitely Whatever the reasons, the numE>i of visitors to national parks has taken huge jump in the last seven years. In 1915 these parks visited by fewer than 100000 persons In 1921 the figures had trebled, and last year increased by 50,000, making total of million and quarter
 As interesting these growing numbers is the relative popularity of the parks Many persons if asked which of our national playgrounds and scenic wonders draw the most visitors, would reply The Yosemite "The Yellowstone. Each of these places counts about 100000 visitors, but each is surpassed slightly by Hot Springs, Ark and distanced by Rocky Mountain Park. Colorado which last year boast ed more than 100000 tourists. Grand Canyon Park, Ari- aona, visited by S5oo0 persons, and Lafayette Park, Maine by 74,o00. heavy blow is struck at the competition of the Pyrenees and the Alps by the statement that winter sports may enjoyed in these American parks, and the final talking point is reached with the that accommodations are provided to meet all tastes and all degrees of income One gathers from the annual report of the National Park Service that if you don't what you want in some park other all you need do is to ask for and it will be placed in all of them
 We awoke early to the practical Possibilities of the empire that we acquired with the Louisiana pur- chase Our appreciation of it's scenic qualities has been slower The fact is that as we are always telling the foreigner, it takes time to see this country

HABIT OF THRIFT GROWING.

That inc lessons of thrift hammered home through organized publicity during the period has not been forgotten by the American people is indicated by savings bank statistics covering 1922. Savings deposits in the various institutions of the entire country increased approximately $1,500,000 GOO in that year 1921 Figures compiled by the Savings Banks Division of the American Bankers Association place the total such deposits June 90, 1922 at $1S,OS7, ,497,000 compared to 6lS,595,000 on deposit on the same date in 1921 In mutual savings banks there was $5S02, ,751 900; other State banks (41 statoz) s61S9,12s,ooo; Trust companies (S2 states). $LS94,1SS000 Private banks.

The savings banks, n- stitutions lacked much of the popularity that should justly have been theirf Comparatively few Americans of average means invested in securities Many put their savings in the shape of life insurance being tent to confne their thrift to that The increase in savings accounts however. has not resulted in the de- crease of life insurance business The contrary is true. For the two years 1921 and 1922, than eleven billions of dollars in life insurance was written according to records of the companies New business for the latter aggregated s6sSS and for 1921, S5,6S7000 GOO, showing an increase last year Of $G76000 900 12 per cent than that of 1921.

GERMAN MARK NEAR VANISHING POINT.

Foreign exchange quotations since the occupation of the Ruhr region by France show serious re- fexiOn in the position of the already debased and lcwly German mark New York quotations ten days ago placed 0042 cents the American valuation on the German currency unit This means that an Am erican dollar is worth about 9 800 marks which is the latest extreme low record. It signifies the virtual disappearance of the mark as a medium of commercial exchange. Except for the accommodation of customers Eastern banks have declined to do ness in less han five and ten million mark lots be- cause transactions in less than that volume are not profitable.
 The 23,S0o marks which now represent $1 would have cost $5.664.40 at the normal prewar rate of exchange On the day of the beginning of the Euro pean the mark quoted at 24 cents When the United States entered in 1917 it had dropped to slightly above r cents No official transactions in German currency were recorded during the war, but when business resumed on July 15, 1919 the mark sold for cents. In less than four years it has deprecated in value from twelve one-half to the dollar to 23 500

NO PROFIT IN RUSSIAN METAL
 INDUSTRY.

year has elapsed since the Russian metal in dustry reorganized. Until about September 1921 the administration of the nationalized metal enter prses of Russia concentrated the central Soviet Constitutions" The active flexible industrial appar- atus was an uncouth bureaucratic machine with no one interested in it's All was with other centralized Soviet institutions with opportunity or reward for private initiative results of the aystom were disastrous For example, the production Of pig iron fell frcm 4,141 000 tons in 1913 to 112- tire metal industry found itself on the verge of col lapse owing to shortage of fuel materials and work men. Then new economic policy decided on says the Russian correspondent of the Engineering and Mning-Joulna Press of New York
 The basis which the whole nationalized in- custry had been working during the preceding three years was not entirely abolished but 1t was consider ably modified The Soviet government still held control, but the system of administration and what was more important, the system of distribution of output, was altered. Trusts" were formed-unions or several enterprises with appointed board of d recors responsible to the Soviet government Almost every board contains communists but 1t may also eeh'ah hon-party members and persons that had formerly stood in close connection with the enter- priae under the monarehst regime. Each trust isl expected to be selfsuppornsi should cover it's cost ci production by profits from the sale of it's output The former system of unpaid delivery of products te other institutions longer followed The trusts are still bound 10 deliver part of their products 10 an institution but only against payment The re- nainder may be sold in the open market and the profits tafter the payment all rents and taxes) are piaced al the disposal of the board directors of he trust In this the principle of personal interest was, although only partially, introduced into the in custrial process This innovation seen brought about an improve ment in conditions though production is yet at all comparable to pre-war days Tn tie first nine ncnths of 1922 the pig iron production was 127 900 ons' compared with s4OOo tons the same period n 1921.
 Some of the rules for the operation of the new runis are however, not working satisfactorily For
