OFFERINGS OF CORN UNUSUALLY LIGHT CHICAGO. Feb. 21. New restrlclions on grain trading had but little effect today as a hindrance to higher prices. Evidence of the virtual exhaustion of flour 6tocka did a good leal to counterbalance bearish sentiment. Offerings of corn were very light. After opening c higher at 127 May. the market reacted a trifle ind then scored slight additional gains. Notwithstanding that oats showed declines at the outset, weakness proved to be only transient. Action of the exchange directors in putting a limit Dn advances allowed in any one day was chiefly responsible for the initial setbacks. On the other hand, rural ronsignment notices were meagre. Opening prices, which ranged from i to -lie lower with May 88U to 88, were followed by a rise to well above yesterday's latest figures. Provisions ascended with grain. At first however, the market temporarily reflected a decline In hog prices. GRAIN QUOTATIONS CHICAGO, Feb. 21.

COMB SAGE TEA IN HAIR TO DARKEN IT It's Grandmother's Recipe to keep her Locks Dark. Glossy, Beautiful. The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmother's recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest advantage. Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. Adv.

Like the words of father to son, down through the years, comes the advice of "The Father of His Country" to the people of America today: "Economy makes happy homes and sound nations instill it deep" Washington's America fought for the principles of liberty and humanity just as the America of today fights for these principles. Washington knew the terrors that war held for the thriftless he knew, that national thrift is necessary to win a war. You who revere the memory of Washington, heed his words. Do away with needless buying. Allow the factories now making luxuries to turn their labor and materials into supplies for our soldiers. Make thrift your every-day rule of living, and regularly put a share of your savings into War Savings Stamps Go to the postoffice, nearest bank, trust company or other authorized agency and start the helpful habit of buying and saving War Savings Stamps and U. S. Thrift Stamps. Help your country to victory and help yourself to personal success practice the habit that made Washington "First in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of his countrymen."

can camp. They marched through the streets of the ancient town headed by a band. The thoroughfares were decorated with British and American flags and were lined by cheering crowds. The population of the town, which has seen hundred of thousands of British soldiers going and coming during the war, was impressed by the Americans, many in the streets remarking they were surprised at the splendid discipline and the seriousness with which the Americans appear to be going to war. Mayor Peace, in a speech of welcome said the British formerly regarded the Americans as cousins, but now looked upon them as brothers. He referred to the Americais of Lincoln's time as freeing the slaves and said America now was freeing the world. "Your one idea is to win this war,"
