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.
Many of these shipments have gone
to Germany where there is a big
demand for fruits of all kinds, and
where the Swiss exporters found a
ready sale for much of ther pro
duce now that the renten mark has
replaced the worthless paper cur
rency.
According to provisional est ; -
mates compiled here Switzerland
jthis year will have an excess of
about 16,900 car loads of cider
fruit, 8,000 cars of eating apples.
10,000 tons of plums and 1,500 tons
of walunts for exportation. Paris
and London as usual took a large
share of the Swiss fruit crop.
Our ambition is to be so rich that
when we go broke we can call it
financially embarrassed.

AUSTRALIAN LABOR
PARTY ADVANCING
MELBOURNE, Sept. 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.

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.
