GET BEST PRICE POSSIBLE Commission W:il Sell Warehouses, Docks, Hospitals, Engines and All k}‘ Superfluous Army Supplies— France Wants Our Horses. ! Paris.—All superfluous material of | the American expeditionary forces, now stored in vast warehouses | throughout France, will be bargained } off to Huropeans, provided it Iis | found cheaper to dispose of it here | than to transport it to the United { States. This announcement was made ] by the United States liquidation com- mission, which is holding conferences to determine what disposition should be made of the equipment. o The commission is composed of Sen- S ator Hollis of New Hampshire, Homer \> H. Johnson of Cleveland, O.; Gen. HF OCharles ‘G. Dawes, and Judge Edwin 4! B. Parker of Houston, Tex. Judge \9 Parker has not arrived here yet. Europe Needs Equipment. “We will get the best prices we pos- eibly .can for ‘all materials,” said Sen- ator Hollls to the Assoclated Press. “There is much equipment of the : United States army which Eur6pe ' needs and which: we shall be glad it they buy. Our railroad equipment, in ' rails, locomotives and cars, is im- mense. France, Belgium, Roumania and other belligerents and some neu- trals are in the market for this mate- rial. ) “Belgium already has asked for | large pumbers of our uniforms and automobiles, of which there are thou- sands still to be disposed of in the most satisfactory way to give the @hnited States the benefit of a good stransaction. There are many difficult problems)\ such as imposts, but these are matters for France. “Scme of our hospital material also will be wanted by the French. I/ Hospital trains and hospital equip- il ment can be used anywhere. Of course hospitals which are fastened to the ground can hardly be taken away, and . we.will have to dispose of these to f. the best advantage. Docks and Warehouses, “Warehouses, docks and things gen- erally stationary and permanent will be subject to the best arrangement thag can be made. “France and the other allies will need horses, and our horses will be sold for the most we can get. We | will sell only those commoditles which our army does not need. “We are unable to make an exact compilation now of what can be dis- posed of, for that is dependent upon the size of our new standing army of { ogcupation, We are going ahead with \ the organization and discussion of the ) preliminaries and so are familiarizing [ lves with the problem. We will t the bases and get a grasp of the matter. ‘““Qur purpose is to drive the best bargain and conserve the values for American materials on this side. If we see that the material can be ehipped home to greater advantage than sold here, we will keep it.

For the time, they are being consid- ered only for use in districts where the traffic is light. The new car is much lighter than he ordinary type of surface car and it is said that it can be more easily started or stopped. It seats 35 pas- sengers and the entrance and exit are both in the front, the rear platform being closed when the car is in oper- atlon. The “crew” consists of one man. Passengers must drop their fares in a box as they board the cars. | 'FEEL MISERABLE FROM THAT COLD? ) Qoldaand coughs are quickly : by Dr. King's relieved I New_Discovery JRobody should feel f'ierlect!i " mise erable” from a cold, ‘bronchial attack for very long, Fer it ¢ ‘or it takes o ~Make, Your Bowels Behave Make them function with gratifying not relieve their torpidity Dr. E?fi New Life Pills will.

The man who dies without enough life insurance leaves one or all of them in a bad fix. These three things are what most men struggle and labor their life through to leave in a GOOD fix. There is only one way—just one—to accomplish this with absolute certainty. Lets talk it over. D. S. Mitchell The New York Life Man Northern Natl Bank Bldg.

That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brew- ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul- phur. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray or streaked, just an application or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its appearance a hundredfold. . Don’t bother to prepare the mix- ture; you can get this famous old recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients for 50 cents a large bottle, all ready for use. It is called Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color and lustre of your hair. Everybody uses “Wyeth’s” Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- plied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disappeared, and after another application it becomes beau- tifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous. This ready-to-use prepara- tion is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire dark hair and a youthful appearance. It is not in- tended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.
