HAIR INSURANCE
INSURANCE AGAINST PRENIAs
TURELY GRAY HAIR.

In these up-to-date days, 1t Is posi-
BILE to purchase insurance on any
thing. Insurance is, practically, taxi
ing chance, with the chances fig
ured largely in favor of those issuing
the insurance-h6t those who buy 1t.
Hair insurance is different, in that
the one buying the insurance obtains
full value at the outset, with corre-
sDondingly increased values for the
greater amount bought; while the
sellers OF this insurance are likely to
lose unless the purchasers obtain full
value at once.
This applies to Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy, for IL 1t does
not do exactly what is claimed for 1t,
the sales would naturally drop off;
whereas II it gives satisfaction the in
creased sales give 1t the only chance
to be successful. However, Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy does
make good" as evidenced by its
daily increasing sales. Druggists say
that this preparation gives the best
satisfaction OF any hair remedy ever
sold. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Is
clean and wholesome and perfectly
harmless. 1t removes dandruff,
strengthens the hair. gives new life
to dull or paTched hair, and gradually
restores gray hair to natural color.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents bottle and iS
recommended and sold by
Sherman d Mcconnell Drug Co.,
and Owl Drug Co.

PLAN RETRENCHMENT SCHEME
Mayor and Chief of Police Discuss
Force Reduction.
REPORT TO BOARD TUESDAY
Donahue Is Asked 20 offer Ideas OF
the Best Methods for CurtRilinE
Expenses-No Dismissals
Are Needed.

Chief Of Police Donahue will be asked
by the Board Of Fire and Police commits
soners Tuesday night to make suggestions
for recognizing the force so is will come
within the expenditures allowed by the
city charter
No immediate action, however, in cur
failing the force is anticipated. Mayor
Dahman, a member Of the board, said
Monday morning that just what could be
done yet was yet question. Several
schemes have been suggested. among them
one which will put the patrolmen back
on the double shift plan. Another pro
Jet is to take the patrolmeu off the street
corners and depot stations and put them
on regular beats, laying off about dozen
men.
Neither of these plans meet with the APP
proval OF Mayor Dahlman. Chief Donahue
Is also against the double shift project He
favors cutting the force and shifting his
details to meet the requirements as well
as possible.
''The only solution of the situation seems
to be to decrease the force said Mayor
Dahlman. Under no circumstances would
favor a return Of the double shift. The
most practicable way, il seems to me, Is
to decrease the force gradually. Patrolmen
resign from time to time. Instead Of APP
pointing new men to fiji their places, we
will leave the places untitled. BY the end
Of the year, We can likely bring the force
within the expense limit. This system has
maintained for the six months and we have
been enabled to Systematically bring the
force within the limits
Before any plans are made for closing
the fire houses, as suggested by the mayor,
the funds of the fire department will be
tabulated.
