FAMILY RUNT
Kansas Man Says Coffee Made Him

Coffee has been used In our family
Of eleven-father, mother. five sons
and four daughters-for thirty years.
I am the eldest of the boys and have
always been considered the runt of the

only weighed 116 when l was 2S.
Then changed from coffee to Pos

to do so. / noticed, as did the rest Of
the family, that l was surely gaining
strength and flesh. Shortly after I
was visiting my cousin who said. You

coffee was the cause Of his trouble as

Chicago, Illinois. - When the com.
mittee adjourned after midnight IL
was said that a new basis of repre-
sentation had been adopted.
1t is a radical departure from the
accepted basis of representation in
national conventions. 1t is planned
that in future national conventions,
instead of seating a delegate from
each congressional district and one
for each United States senator. there
shall be one delegate from each dis
trict and an additional delegate for
each 10000 votes cast in the previous
election for the national Progressive
ticket.
The plan is designated to prevent
the existence within the new party Of
conditions such as have obtained
within the old parties. whereby Sec
tions of the country in which the par
ties have little or no strength are
represented in the conventions on the
same basis as the strong Republican,
or Democratic states.
Colonel Roosevelt contends that the
Republican delegates from Southern
states. in which the party has only a
nominal existence, were used in the
national convention last June to de-
feat the wishes of the party in the
strong Republican states as expressed
at the primaries.

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
To NATURAL COLOR
By Common Garden Sage a
Simple Remedy for Dandruff,
Falling, Faded, Gray Hair.

The old idea of using Sage for dark
ening the hair is again coming in vogue.
Our grandmothcrs had dark, glossy hair
at seventy-five, while our mothers are
gray before they ore fifty. Our grand
mothers kept their hair soft and glossy
with a "Sage Tea," which also restored
the natural color.
One objection to using such prepar-
alton was the trouble of making it.
This objection has been overcome by
TIE Wyeth Chemical Company of New
York, who has placed on the market a
superior preparation of Sage, combined
with Sulphur and other valuable rene
Gics for dandraff, itching scalp, and
thin, weak, falling hair.
The beauty of the hair depends more
on its rich, even shading than anything
else. Don't have dry, harsh faded hair,
when a simple, harmless remedy will
bring back the color in few days; and
don't be tormented with dandruff. itch
ing scalp and loose, falling hairs.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy
will quickly correct these troubles, and
give color, strength and beauty to your
hair.
Get fifty cent bottle from your
druggist today, and prove this to
your own satisfaction. All druggists
sell it, under guarantee that the
money will be re funded if the
remedy is not exactly rs represented.
