AUSTRALIAN LABOR
PARTY ADVANCING

MELBOURNE, Sept. 8.-Labor s
victories in Australia did not re-
cieye the check in this state that
political prophets had predicted.
Victoria, considered the most con-
sevrative state in the commonwealth
has returned labor in greater
strength than any other party in the
election now in progress. Figures
show that labor is certain of 20
seats.
The present situation here IS;
Labor, 20; Nationalist, "a; Farmers
party, IL. The election was caused
by split between the Nationalist
and the Farmers Union, which gov
erned under composite cabinet.
Queensland, South, Australia,
West Australia and Tasmania now
have labor governments. In New
South Wales labor is believed to
have the best chance to win tho
next election.
Labor members Of the Common
wealth parliament, at present ruled
by a composite cabinet of National
lists and Farmers, predier they will
sweep the polls at the next election.

Night terrors are one of the most
common nervous disorders or
babies ana young children. Every
mother is familiar with the phene
ONION on when manlfests ltsen
most frequently at from two to slx
years OF age, or Older. The cnllda
rem may apparently De in perfect
health, ana 60 TO bed with every
indication of spending q quiet rest
tul night
Suddenly, without any apparent
cause, they start from Sleep
screaming with fright and cEattec-
ing with cold They may even
jump from bed and run about the
room. totally obliylous to the fact
that the mother or some other
member of the family may be try-
ing TO quiet them.
Night-terrors must not be cone
fused with ordinary nightmare.
which is merely a distressing
dream, the evil influences of which
disappear almost Immediately on
awakening. In nightmare the
child is usually able to state the
cause of its fright, while in night
terrors there is usually no ability
to assign a definite cause for the
trouble.
These attacks may occur once or
more a night, or at intervals of a
week or thereabouts. In some rare
instances, attacks in every way
similar to night-terrors may even
take place while the child is awake,
or during his play.
The chief cause of night-terrors
is believed to be some disturbance
OF digestion, associated with an exa
hausted nervous condition. The
trouble has sometimes proved the
torerunner of epilepsy.
In order to effect a cure, it is
necessary to place the child on a
restricted diet, favoring milk
whole-wheat bread and fruit, and
eliminating meat, eggs, or highly
concentrated protein foods. The
last meal at night should be es-
pecially light in character
Daily movements OF the bowels
should be secured. Plenty of
water should be drunk, and a
healthy outdoor life insisted upon.
In children who are old enough
to understand. splendid results
have peen secured by suggestive
treatments. This forms the oasis
OF the treatment ordinarily given
by psycho-analysts, and these who
employ suggestive therapeutics.
1t consists simply in talking to
the child. in a quiet firm tone after
the child mas gone to Ted and IS
asleep

MISUNDERSTANDING
INDUIRY DEVELOPED
Soviet Authorities Are Encomag-
ing Sea Fisheries in North
ernest Banks

ARCHANGEL, Russia, Sept. g.
Soviet Russia has made strenuous
efforts this summer to develop her
sea fisheries as a source OF food
supply, and in this connection, II
was announced recently, new flsh
inc grounds have been discovered
off .Jugurski Schar in Arctic waters
adjacent to Russia. The new tlsE-
ing banks were located quite by &C
cident. 49,
It was during a cruise OF the
steamship Malygin, of l,50O tons
with Russian sea scientists aboard
who were doing research work for
the purpose of studying matters per
tanning to the biological, hydro
graphical and meteorological PROB
lens of the Polar regions that great
schools Of fish were encountered
Further Investigations in the same
waters, off Jugurski Schar, reveal
ed that the fish made their "homcs
there in great numbers, This IS
said to be the most northerly fishing
banks in the world.
There are indication, not only
off the Archangel coast, but in
Northern Norway as well, that the
Russian interests are going in for
deep sea fishing on mach larger
scale than at any time since the
revolution. Formerly the Russian
trade was a main feature if such
Norwegian towns as Vardo and
Hammerfest. AS far back as the
fifteenth century the Pomors fished
and traded along the Norwegian
coast. Gradually in the eighteenth
century the fishing passed into Nor
wegian hands, the Russians confin
ing their attention to the purchase
and shipping Of the catches. In the
five years ending in 1912, more than
100000 tons were thus purchased,
much of this going to England. With
the war and the revolution this
trade vanished, but now Russia has
begun to buy fishing craft in Nor
way with which to catch her own
fish, thus bringing about great
saving for the Russian people.

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back Its
Natural Color, Gloss and
Attractiveness

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn
gray, streaked and faded hair beauti-
fully dark and luxuriant, Just few
applications will prove revelation if
your hair is fading, streaked or gray.
Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur rec
ipe at home, though, is troublesome.
An easier way is to get bottle of
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
at any drug store all ready for use.
This is the old-time recipe improved by
the addition OF other ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractiveness.
By darkening your'hair witll Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because il does it so naturally,
so evenly. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared, and, after an
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and
luxuriant.

R EARL JOHNSON WINS
IA j TEN MILE CROWN
preston News Service)

NORTH TONAWANDA, N. Y, June
4.-Two new national champions were
crowned here Friday when R. Earl
johnson, of Pittsburgh, won the A. A.
u. Ten4Mile run championship form
erly held by Willie Ritbla. and H. C.
Freeman Of the Central Walking Club,
dawned the seven-mile-walk crown.
johnson took the ten-mile run after
a hard fight with Albert Michealson
of the Cygnet A. c., Port Chester,
Conn, and James Hennigan, of the
Dorchester Club, Medford, Mass. Mich.
ealson and Hennigan finished second
and third respectively, after having
stuck with johnson for major part OF
the way. The times were: johnson, ga:
20 rs; Michealson, 430: Hennigan
54:32 As.
1t is thought that johnson was not
compelled to extend himself at any
time through the whole pace, as he ap
peared to simply be regulating his pace
sufficient to win over his competitors.
He at no time appeared to be endeav-
oring to establish record. However,
the men made fairly strong effort to
finish with squirt, but as they put on
additional speed johnson seemed to
Slyly increase his pace keeping all the
while a sufficient lead to assure vic
tory.

BROOKS CORRECTS PAPER ON
TYPEWRITER CONTEST.

WASHINGTON D. c., June 6-Ne.
groes of the country notice more anu
the more the apparent concerted act
ion on the part of daily newspaper re-
porters and writer's of "nOrdie'' des-
cent to minimize the creditable activi-
ties OF race men and women, and on
the other hand, magnify racial short
comings of colored people. A few days
ago the Washington Evening Star in
an article in connection with a prize
being won in a typewriting contest
played up a white lad as the first per
son in the District of Columbia to win
such recognition. Norman E. Brooks
saw the article and took exceptions, or
rather endeavored to refresh the con
yenient-forgettery" of the American
whites. Mr.. Brooks communication
follows:
I'm the picture section of Sundays
Star for May IS, 1924, notice the pic
ture of a youngsman who had received
a gold medal for typewriting and II
was said that he was the first in the
District to receive such medal.
D6S u lulOTu yOu Iue1t q yOoAiS
colored boy of the name of Cortez Will
son Peters was the first one in the Dis
trict to receive this gold medal for type
writing. He received the medal on
June 10, 1923, when he was graduated
from Dunbar High School. And since
that time he has won Reington
Standard typewriter, which is the high
est medal that can be awarded outside
of the international contest, which is
held in October.
II just thought that would call
your attention to this fact because
there is much good that the colored
man is doing in Washington and else
where, that is not given general recog
milton. To verify my statement you
may write to the Underwood and the
Remington Typewriter companies at
this city or to the main office of the
Remington Company in New York
City.
