BOYS IN FRANCE
LOOK TOWARD XMAS
towels, handkerchiefs, shoe polish,
etc. Think of what we are in need,
and then send il. Send anything. Ev
erything you send will be appreciated."
Send Anything, Send Every
thing:, Says Robert Kutak,
Omaha Boy, in Letter to
Hi3 Parents. ,
I'r.mk .1. Kutak, 17-'l South Twelfth
street, has just received two inter
esting letters, from his son, Robert,
who is serving with the American ex
peditionary forces in France.
Robert finds some difficulty in dis
closing his whereabouts, due to the
careful eye of the censor, but his let
ters give some idea of how he and
the other boys are getting along.
Under date of September 16 he
write: "I have not written for a long
lime and am very sorry. I am now
back at the training station with the
company. Wc left the beautiful lit
tle city on the big lrtfl yesterday
illuming by train. It took us all day
to make tlie short distance here. We
passed through a village on the way
which years ago was known to all
the world of that lime. I can't tell
the name, because it may give away
fiur location. I also saw my first cas
tle. It was up on a hill with spires
and battlements piercing the air and
overlooked the beautiful vHcy of a
battle-famous river."
Medieval Town.
"As for the town wc have left be
hind us. I will sav it was some place.
a regular medieval town, i nc runic
town is on a great hill Our camp
was on top of the hilf in the town.
In the morning the forest-covered
hill, with the foggy valley which
surrounds the town, would make a
pretty picture. Prices were fairly
low in this town and I spent all my
nonev. Just the same I needed a
ew things I could have gone with
out had 1 been back with the com-
"Well. I am back now, and I found
everything changed. It was a change
for the better with me, however. I
sleep in a better place now. In some
wavs. which I can not tell ygu, it was
i change for tlie worse, l ll gel aiong
iomehow. I felt pretty blue on lcav
ng, but I've cheered up considerably
since I came hers and saw Joe, Hill
and Otto. I received pa's letter dated
August 14, while away. In it you
seem to hope for peace next summer.
Such is not the expectation of the
French, howeve. The optimistic
Frenchmen think two years, the pessi
mistic hink three op four years more,
and no wonder they think so."
Look Ahead to Christmas.
Under date of September 20 Robert
writes again: "I wrote last Sunday,
and the letter got by the censor, but
with difficulty. I tried to send a
photograph, but it was censored out
of fhe letter. " The pa
pers are talking of peace again. 1 he
Germans will make big concessions
to get peace by winter, they say. They
would have to make pretty big coll
isions to meet the allies' terms. I'm
ifraid. Here's hopin' they do. We
ire getting very good food, and I
have a fairly good place invhich to
sleep, sd I don't care how long we
stav here. I don't lcribwwhat we
would like for Christmas tobacco-
undoubtedly-would be welcomed.
Such food as w v$ keep would be
good. Some gocd ' flashlights and
' other such things would help in and
f tb trenches. Razors, (safety).

count of war conditions," stilted Su
perintendent Ilevcridge. "I under
stand that the population of Wash

An Old Recipa
To Darken Hair
Common garden Sage and Sulphur
makes streaked, faded or gray hair
dark and youthful at once.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded,
streaked or gray. Yelrs ago the only
way to get this mixture Was to make
it at home, which is mussy and
troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound." You will get a
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
improved by the addition of other in
gredients, at very little cost. Every
body uses this preparation now, be
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray fiair disappears, and
after another application or two you
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years
younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is a delightful toilet re
quisite. It is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease. Advertisement.

"VOU'remember the old jest to the effect that the
reason that George Washington was able to
throw a dollar across the Potomac, was because a
dollar went farther in those days than it does now.
Well, regardless of the talk you've heard about
high prices in clothes, a dollar goes a lot farther at
this store than you have any idea; farther than it
goes at any other clothing store, and here's one
reason:

Marx Clothes.
They're the best values to be found. They're
all-wool, of the finest quality and carefully tailored.
Furthermore, they are guaranteed to be satisfac
tory to you from the standpoint of looks and wear.
