Practically all Of the contests, state

gray hairs before tney are fifty, but
they are. beginning to appreciate the
wisdom OF our grandmothers in
using sage tea" for their hair and

The present generation has the ad-
vantage of the past in that it can

The supreme court has asked At
tOrney General West to brief the ques-
flon and to present any law thar can
be found which may tend To show
