Baker, widow of Sir Samuel White | Baker, author and explorer, who died | recently at Newton Abbot, Devon, at 74 years of age, was known as one of the most daring explorers. In 1861 she accompanied her husband upon an expedition for the discovery of the Nile sources. The party went on thout interpreter or guide and in deflance of the opposition of the slave hunters who attempted to bar their progress. She also accompanied her husband when he commanded an expedition to Central Africa or- ganized by the Khedive for the sup- pression of the slave traffic. She was the first white woman, as her hus- band was the first white man, to set foot in the Tegion of the Albert Ny- anza lake, SAGE TEA DARKENS HAIR TO ANY SHADE Don't stay gray! Here's a simple re- cipe that anybody can apply with a hair brush. The use of Sage and Sulphur fo restoring faded, gray ‘ hair to its natural color dates back to grand mother's time. She used it to keen her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked ap- pearance, this simple mixture wus ipplied with wonderful effect. But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowad asking at 7 any drug store for 0 cent bottle of "Weyth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound,” you will get this famous old oreparation, improved by the addi ton of other ingredients, which can oe 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 ha: seen applied.

It seems best to the committee that all applications should be received through the principals of the schools for the reason that we must rely upon them to that the physical and moral qualifications are sufficient. The committee has had printed a number of application blanks which should be filled out by all applicants for the scholarship and under sep- arate cover I am forwarding to you these blanks together with printed information concerning the camps.

Plans are being made for section- al camps on a large scale in the summer of 1916. Unquestionably the “Plattsburg idea’ has had great in- fluence throughout the nation in de- veloping a sense of military oblig tion among the young men of the country, and the present indications are that at least 30,000 will attend these camps this summer. The aim is to give men of aver age physique four or five weeks a year of intensive military instruction under officers of the regular army, o that at the end of that time men of no previous military experience will, at least, have learned the rudi- ments of military organization and discipline and use of the military rifle, and become somewhat familiar i with the equipment, feeding and san- itary care of an army in the fieid, and the handling and control of men In maneuvers. No examinations are held, but at the completion of the training recom mendations are made by the company commanders as to the efficiency of the attendant and certificates of com- petency are issued by the command- ing officer and filed with the war dJde- partment.
