CHALLENGE
By Kenton Foster Murray.
This little child so white, so calm,
Decked for her grave,
Encountered death without qualm.
Are you as brave?
So small, and armed with naught beside
Her mothers kiss
Alone she slept, unterrified,
Into the abyss.
"Ah," you explain, "she did not know
This babe of four
Just what it signifies to CO."
Do you know more?

Oldest Mail Carrier Has
Walked About 2O9, 200 Miles

In the thirty-eight years IN which j a.
Tebbens has been IN the employ ot the
government. as a mail carrier be- Ias
walked approximately zoe 100 49, .5. or
eight times the distance around Ia. world
Had Mr.. Tebbsns been walking across the
United States he would have made the
distance from coast to coast about seventy
times.

rier on the force In point Of service but
also in years lie is n years of age and.
claims to be as good as men forty years

Forty-one years ago Mr.. Tebbens entered

mail carrier he was a government cabinet
maker, in Omaha. Upon his advent into
the mail department, Mr. Tebbens had a

GRAY HAIR TALKS
HAIR INDEX OF AGE. DON'T
LOOK OLD.

How often one hears the ex-
preston, "She is gray and is begin
ming 70 look old" 1t is true that
gray hair usually denotes age and is
always associated with age. You
never hear one referred TO as having
gray hair and looking young.
The hair Is generally the index OF
age. If your hair is gray, you can't
blame your friends for referring to
you as looking old. You can't retain
a youthful appearance If you allow
your hair TO grow gray. Many per-
sons OF middle age jeopardize their
future simply by allowing the gray
hairs to become manifest. There is
no necessity for this. If your hair
has become faded or gray, try Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, the
preparation which a chemist by the
name OF Wyeth devised a few years
ago. 1t is simple, inexpensive and
practical, and will Danish the gray
hairs in a few days. 1t is also guar
anteed to remove dandruff and pro-
mote the growth of the hair.
II Is a pleasant dressing for the
hair, and after using it a few days
itching and dTyness OF the scalp en-
tirely disappear.
This preparation Is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle and Is
recommended and sold by
sherman a Mcconnell Drug Co.,
and Owl Drug Co.
