RETAIL GROCER IS CLOSED OUT
IXDIAN'APOLIS, Jan. 8. Wholelalers of Indianapolis and vicinity who ar lfceneed under the federal food control law, have been directed by Dr. Harry C. Barnard, federal food admin Istrator, to refrain hereafter from supplying merchandise to Chris Baumbach, a grocer at 26th street and Capitol avenue. Baumbach is alleged to have "profiteered" in violation of the Lever food control law, by agents of the department of justice who report
ed to Dr. Barnard. The effect of this
action is to put Baumbach out of business. This is the first instance of the en
forcement of the food control law as It
applies to profiteering. Baumbach is said to have purchased canned goods at 8 cents and retailed them at 15 cents, which was held contrary to that section of the statute which fixes profits at a reasonable margin. Baumbach was not licensed, his sales totaling less than $100,006 per year and not selling to hottls nor restaurants. However, be is reached as effectively through the food administration's control of whoelsaling as if he were directly answerable for the observance of the law. In taking radical action against Baumbach the federal administration lakes the position, Dr. Barnard says, that sufficient notice has been given the food regulations. It has been printed, and preached publicly for months, be says, that merchandise ' must be sold on a fair and reasonable margin of profit, without reference to increase in valuations that may have accrued from the date of purchase by retailers and the date of sale
Heart and Home Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of eighteen. My life Is very uncomfortable 1 have a friend who is over in France and we both have declared our love for each other. He has been gone several months and I have not heard from him once, but while he was in
the United States I received several letters from him. Now there is another who - loves me and wants me to marry him. People tell me that my first friend will come back and for me not tb worry, but go ahead and marry the second. I know I could be satisfied with the second until the first comes back, and even then I would not let the first come in between my
husband and myself. I have tried to forget the first, but I can never do It. Do you think he has forgotten me?
And what would you advise me to do?
My folks are awful cross and are all the time quarreling with me.
- WAITING M. Do not marry. Trust the first man because you love him. I can tell from the tone of your letter that you want to get away from your family and settle down and that you arf not in love with the second man. Y6u simply feel that you could live happily with him. At the same time you know you could live happily without him. Such Should
c ft
not be the case. There are many reasons why you do not hear from the boy in France. Don't . expect letters. Trust him and help him with yftur faith. ,,.. You will ruin your whole life if you enter into a loveless marriage now. The other man will want you when he comes back, and If he finds you already married you will spoil both y6ur life and his. I think it is all right for you to go
with other boys while the boy you.
are engaged to is away. It takes two to make a quarrel. Perhaps you are not considerate enough of your family. Respect their opinions and try not to do things which annoy them. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl eiah teen years old and my boy friend
was drafted 'and is in camp now. He came hnme for Christmas and while he
was here he asked me to marry him
My mother would not let me, although
I love him. She also said that I could not be neaed to him because I am
tob younu.
Ah I am eighteen don't you think I am old enough to know my own mind, and would you advise me to marry this
young man when he comes bacK irom the war? Should I he engaged to him while he is at war? DOTTY DIMPLE. Youi mother was wise in not let
ting you marry the boy. You would spoil your future happiness because the boy will not be in a position to support a wife for some time. You are also too young to consider marriage or even an engagement. Tell the boy that you prefer o wait until the war is over before you decide to marry.

and forget my troubles. The doorbell rang before I had finished the first page. I khew Katie was busy in the kitchen, so I opened it myself. The man and the woman from the apartment opposite stood in the ball, both in evening attire. The woman's face flushed as she met my' astonished gaze. I vras glad she had the grace to be ashamed of herself.- She knew that I must-have overheard her drawling comment to her maid in the moraine, when I had
called at the door to inquire about her baby. "We want to thank you for all you did for the baby last night,-' the man said, In .rapid, embarrassed fashion. "Believe me, w are deeply grateful." "No thanks are necessary," I return ed stiffly, for the memory of his wife's attitude of the morning rankled. "The baby was brought to us in a convulsion. We simply did the bet we could for it, as we would have done for any child in a similar emergency, I am glad to see that it must be fully recovered or you would not be leaving it." I could not resist that malicious little fling. I owed them something for the wife's discourtesy. Besides, I was repelled by the callousness of these parents in leaving for an -evening's
pleasure a baby who had been so near death the night before. "Oh, the baby is much better the physician says." The man wiped his foerhead as he spoke. "The trained nurse is still there, and she has our telephone number." "Our engagement is on! we could
hardly break," drawled his wife, apeak ing for th first time. "I am aur the baby will be all right I am sorry I did not see you this morning." "There, was no possible reason for your doing so," I returned, with my voice as frigid 'as I could make it. "I had no Intention of disturbing you. I simply wished to Inquire after the
baby. The maid could have told me, and when she left the door I went away, for I was in a hurry." Not- for worlds would I have acknowledged to this woman, that I had heard her bored words to the maid: "Oh, the woman from across the halL I euppose . I shall have to see her." and had rushed away on that account. , (To be continued)

GRAY HAIR BECOMES DARK AND BEAUTIFUL
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am sixteen years old and I have been going with, a young man twenty. He, took my ring and now we have broken up. I want the ring back very badly and I do not know how to get it unless I go to the place where this boy works. What shall I do? DOUBTFUL. Write a letter to the boy and address it- to his place of business. Make it a disinterested letter and simply ask for your ring. - Do not refer to the fact that you are no longer friends. It will be much better to write than to call on him. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been going with a boy about three months. He has asked me to marry him. I am nineteen. Do you think I am too young to marry? H. M. You are too young and your acquaintance has been too short.

Revelations of a Wife
day set was the one for the coming of her masseuse. No wonder I could not settle myself to read. Hot, angry tears came to my eyefl as I remembered my day, such an annoying one. The woman in the apartment opposite had angered me by her insolence and ingratitude in the morning, Harry Underwood had annoyed me by forcing his presence upon me while I was riding on the stage, and now this unpleasant experience had come. How I longed for the country outing which Dicky had proposed! '' If I only knew where Dicky Was, I told myself, I would eat any amount of humble pie in the hope that we might go after all. But he had said he would be late, and I knew that if he did not go to bed before midnight there would be no use planning any outing. Dicky, like most men, is cross if he is sleepy, and to go on the proposed trip would mean arising early the next morning. No, there was no use wasting regrets. The outing was gone. I set
tled myself again In my chair and picking up a book determined to read
HOW MADGE TOLD DICKY THE NEWS 4 I picked up the newspaper, read the headlines without in the least knowing what they were, and threw it down wearily. A book and a magazine shared the same fate. I had made Dicky angry by giving up a delightful country trip with him for the sake of keeping a business appointment with Mrs. Helen Brainerd Smith, president of the Lotus Study Club. After he had left me angrily for a long walk, Mrs. Smith bad called me up and airily asked to postpone the appointment because the
Croup at Midnight; Weil in Morning "A few nights ago' one of my patrons had a small child taken with croup about midnight," writes M. T. Davis, Bearsville, W. Va. "They came to my store and got a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar. Before morning the child was entirely recovered. The father's name is C. C. Craven." Isn't it unwise to experiment with unknown cough medicines when you can get the genuine Foley's Honey and Tar? Best for coughs, colds, croup and lagrippe. For sale by A. G. Luken & Co.
A Great Change Enters Into Lite
of Storekeeper A certain unassuming gentleman In this city who happens to be a prominent dealer in furniture and who up to a few weeks ago had become a
recluse because of his physical condition tells this remarkable and most interesting tale: "For a .number of years." he said,
"I have been so closely confined to my business working zealously to make my store representative in every respect that wear and tear finally got
me, my face became drawn and hag
gard and my disposition seemed to urge people to evade me. It was then that I began to despise my own company. My bookkeeper who has been
with me a long time one day suggested that I needed a rest and that my
nerves required attention. Sh9 told me that her father had been in the state of health which I was experiencing and that he bad taken Phos-
phated Iron. 'Look at him now," she
said. 'He works ten hours a day and appears to be the happiest man in the
world which he believes ne is, ne says."
"AH this happened less than a month ago. I followed the advice and look at me now. Back in the harness
with a smile all the while. I am feel
ing more fit than ever. When I see
a tired looking face the name of PhoS'
phated Iron immediately comes in my mind. I am convinced that it is converting many a worn out body into a
life rich in thought, ambition and enthusiasm." Special Notice To insure physicians
and patients receiving the genuine Phosphated Iron we have put up in capsules only so do not allow dealers
to substitute pills or tablets, insist on the genuine in capsules only. For eale in Richmond by Conkey Drug Company.' Adv.

Grandmother's Old Favorite Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at hone is mussy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use preparation, improved by the addition of ether ingredients called ."Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." 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 hair disappears, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace. Is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful toilet requisite and not a medicine. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. Adv.
