This trait OF Stearns, it seems,
is one he has carefully practiccd
in business. To it he attributes no
little Of the success that has made
him ono Of Boston's merchant lrin-
ees. Since it worked in business,
hesa WAC reason why it would not
work in politics.
Stearns never reads anything
the newspapers say about anything
in which he is Interested. He never
reads the ads Of his rigol mer-
chants. If he's planning a sale,
he doesn't want his own methoIs
upset and his judgment influenced
by the articles or prices advanced
by his competitors.
Not only Stearns' course. but
Coolidge's course. Throughout the
campaign has been shaped By this
viewpoint. For the Stearns and
Coolidge way of looking at things
are closely related. FOR years,
ever since young Coolidge was
first elected to the Massachusetts,
Legislature, Stearns has been his
adviser and mentor. The Stearns
philosophy in business and pclitics
is constantly reflected il the Coo
lidge attitude. And The Stearns
maxim is:
Mind your own business; never
ape the other fellow; never initiate.
Speak little; think much, and don't
let the other fellow stir YOU to de-
fensive action. That ,,lway5 adj
mits weakness. Better no move
than one that is not positive"

German embassy, like the average
American housewife, has her trou-
bles with the 4'servant problem. "
When the German ambassador
submitted his resignation, some
time ago, he expected te be re-
lieved by Sept. Is. So he sent his
household servants back to Ger
many, expecting he and Frau
Wiedfeldt would spend the re-
mainder of his ter mhere vacation
ing in Florida.
But the German government up
set the plan, by asking that WED
feldt remain in Washington until
after the Dawes reparqtions policy
had been placed in working order.
This, it was limited, might be any
where from six months to year.
A quest for suitable servants
here in Washington seemed hope
less. Competition was Keen. wages
high. So a hurry-up call was sent
back to the Fatherland, and the
Wiedfeldt servants are sailing on
the next boat back to America.

LEGION STAND ON
BERGDOLL STATED
Quinn Shows Blood Was to
Advise Voluntary Return.

Commenting upon dispatches that
Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, draft
evader, had promised Leighton II.
Blood, American Legion member, to
return to the United States from Ger
many to serve five years in the At
lsnta Federal penitentiary, John
Quinn, national Legion commander.
issued this statement through national
Headquarters here today:
Leighton H. Blood was going to
Europe. He was delegated, as mem
Der, to interview Grover Cleveland
Bergdoll. 1t was suggested to Blood
that he tell Bergdoll that the Legion
did not advocate the use of violence
in seeking Bergdoll's return. On the
other hand, Bergdoll was to be advised
to return voluntarily. The Legion
merely took the stand that Bergdoll
owes expatriation for his conduct in
avoiding military service, but that it
is incompatible with Legion princi-
pies to attempt to kdnap him or bring
back to these shore illegally against
his will"

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are
Using Recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre
or when 1t fades, turns gray, dull and
hfeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
In the hair. Our grandmother made
up mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful
and thousands OF women and mon who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair SO naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You Just. dampen a
sponge or soft brush With II and
draw this through your hair. taking
one small strand at time. BY MORN
ing the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives
It an appearance Of abundance.-Ad-

said against the carelessness in
recognizing and Immediately
placing quarantine on what are called
light cases of many children's dis
eases.
To properly give the necessary safe
guarding to our children is one of the
actions which must be taken at once,
in the case of scarlet fever, in its So
called light form.
Even in select or first class COM
munities. where living conditions and
environment are of the very best,
too much care cannot be taken in Civ
ing adequate protection to the chill
dren.
If school officials and parents, CO.
operating with physicians and the
board of health. are strict in this
matter. a great step in prevention Of
epidemic conditions will result.
The greatest danger is in the cases
of diphtheria, meningitis and tuber-
culosis In these three infection is
due to germs. Others, such as Ger
man measles, chickenpOx and mumps,
are not regarded as dangerous to life,
but may also cause epidemic condi-
tons.
Epidemics are spread by means Of
personal contact more than by any
other carriers. Do your best to pro
