He was married and besides his wife had a family. HAS NEW POSITION. C. H.

Although the Belgian government is certain the invaders will be unable to make any headway with the scheme, it is warning the people in Belgium of the intentions of the Germans and exposing the German plan. “HAM-AND” IS YANKEE'S FAVORITE BREAKFAST MENU (By United Press.)

She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and at- tractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appear- ance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But brewingI at home is mussy and out-of-date. owadays, by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle of “W}reth's Sage and Sulphur Com- pound,” you will get this famous old preparation, improved by the addi- tion of other ingredients, which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply damp- en a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at & time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, it be- comes beautifully dark and glossy. Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com- pound is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance.
