boys won first prize in every class at
Omaha, while the county exhibit as
a whole won the grand premium of an
automobile. And now behold the
final proof that prophet is not with
out honor in his own country. BY
unanimous vote of all the exhibitors
the motor car was turned over to
Superintendent Field. that she might
more easily visit the small and scat
tered country schools that were her
pride.
There is no reason why the Page
county experiment should not prove
equally successful in Lee and in
every other county in Iowa. 1t is a
movement in the right direction. 1t
draws the thoughts of the children in
the rural schools to the farms in
stead of away from them and is
wholly practical and useful. The
need for more practical courses of
study has been apparent for long
time. In city schools this need can
best be met by manual training and
domestic science. In country schools
the Page county plan meets every re-
quirement better than any other yet
devised.

AN OLD-TIME PRESCRIPTION

in a modern product. From time
immemorial sage and sulphur have
been used for the hair and scalp. AL
most every one knows of the value of
such a combination for darkening
the hair and making it grow.
In olden times the only way to get
hair tonic of this sort was to brew
it in the home fireplace, method
which was troublesome and not al,
ways satisfactory. Nowadays almost
every up-to-date druggist can supply
his patrons with ready to use pro-
duct, skillfully compounded in perfect
ly equipped laboratories. The Wyeth
Chemical Company of New York put
up an ideal remedy of this kind called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy and authorize druggists to
sell it under guarantee that the
roncy will be refunded il it fails to
90 exactly as represented.
THIS preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle and is
