PAGE EIGHT MMHISIIIH6- ■Tiff OIWH). Soviet Authorities Are Encourag ing Sea Fisheries in North ermcst ‘Banks’ ARCHANGEL, Russia, Sept. B. Soviet Russia has made etrenuou; efforts this summer to develop her sea fisheries as a source of focd supply, and in this connection, it announced recently, new fish* in£ grounds have been discovered offi Jugurski Schar in Arctic -waters adjacent to Russia. The new fish ing banks were located quite by-ac cident. It was during a cruise of the steamship Malygin, of 1,500 tons, with Russian sea scientists aboard, who were doing research work for the purpose of studying matters per taining to the biological, hydro graphical and meteorological prob lems of the Polar regions that great schools of fish were encountered. Further investigations in the same waters, off Jugurski Schar, reveal ed that the fish made their ‘'homes ’ there in great numbers. This is said to be the most northerly fishing banks in the world. There are indication, not only I off the Archangel coast, but in Northern Norway as well, that the Russian interests are going in for deep sea fishing on a much larger scale than at any time since the revolution. Formerly the “Russian trade” was a main feature if such Norwegian towns as Vardo and Hammerfest. As far back as the fifteenth century the Pomors fished pnd traded along the Norwegian coast. Gradually in the eighteenth century the fishing passed into Nor wegian hands, the Russians confin ing their attention to the purchase and shipping of the catches. In the five years ending in 1912, more than 140,000 tons were thus purchased, much of this going to England. With the war and the revolution this trade vanished, but now Russia has begun to buy fishing craft in Nor way with which to catch her own fish, thus bringing about a great saving for the Russian people. SWITZERLAND HAS HEAVY NUT EXPORTS ZURICH, Switzerland, Sept 8. — Fruits from the Swiss valleys have been exported this year on a larger scale than in any other period.

B.—Labor’s victories in Australia did not re cieve the check in this state that political prophets had 'predicted. Victoria, considered the most con sevrative state in the commonwealth has returned labor in greater strength than any other party in the election now in progress. Figures show that labor is certain of 29 seats. The present situation here Is; Labor, 29; Nationalist, 24; Farmers’ party, 12. The election was caused by a split between the Nationalists and the Farmers’ Union, which gov erned under a composite cabinet. Queensland, South! Australia, West Austrailia and Tasmania now have labor governments. In New South Wales labor is believed to have the best chance to win tho next election. Labor members of the Common wealth parliament, at present ruled by a composite cabinet of National ists and Farmers, predict they will .weep the polls at the next election.

' 3/eallth Tfints ' dfi'.; Fathers/ :. i Physical Culture BERNAWU. ■ M AC FADPEMy _ , «■«■■■ . t» Night-terrors are one ot the most common nervous disorders, or babies ana young children. Lvery motner is familiar with tne phen* omoii on wlucn manifests itseu most frequently at from two to six years ot age, or older. Tho enua ren may apparently De in perfect health, ana go to bed with every indication of spending a quiet rest* fui night Suddenly, without any apparent cause, they start from sleep, screaming with fright and chatter ing with cold. They may even jump from bed and run about the room, totally oblivious to the fact that the mother, or some other member of the family may be try ing to quiet them. Night-terrors must not be con fused with ordinary nightmare, which is merely a ' distressing dream, the evil influences of which disappear almost immediately on awakening. In nightmare the child is usually able to state the cause of its fright, while in night terrors there is usually no abilfty to assign a definite cause for the trouble. These attacks may occur opce or more a night, or at intervals of a week or thereabouts. In some rare instances, attacks in every way similar to night-terrors may even take place while the child is awake, or during his play. The chief cause of night-terrors is believed to be some disturbance ot digestion, associated with an ex hausted nervous condition. The Trouble has sometimes proved the forerunner of epilepsy. In order to effect a cure, it is necessary to place the child on a restricted diet, favoring milk, whole-wheat bread and fruit, and eliminating meat, eggs, or highly concentrated protein foods. The last meal at night should be es pecially light in character. Daily movements ot the bowels should be secured. Plenty ot water should be drunk, and a healthy outdoor life insisted upon. In children who are old enough to understand, splendid results have been secured by suggestive treatments. Inis forms the oasis ot tne treatment ordinarily given by psycho-analysts, and these who employ suggestive therapeutics. It consists simply in talking to the child in a quiet firm tone after the child has gone to bed and is asleep. TO DARKEN HAIR APPLY SAGE TEA Look Young! Bring Back Its Natural Color, Gloss and Attractiveness I Common Rarden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beauti fully dark and luxuriant. Just a few applications will prove a revelation if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur rec ipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get a bottle of Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to .retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your-hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so t aturally, so evenly. 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 hairs have disappeared, and, after an other application or two, your hair be comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant. ▼ THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER S' Announcement 1 2 Wr lo Ihe People T|r Jw , °/ Jfii J®, Jw W Americus W if, t f / It is with a great deal f of pleasure that we announce to you that we have purchased the Windsor Pharmacy Including the Lease, Fixtures and Stock It is our ehm and purpose to give to Americus one of the most up-to-date and modern Pharmacies in this section of the State.
