Only $298,750 has been contribut-
ed TO the Democratic campaign
fund so far. To pay the Legitimate
expenses to the close of the cam
paign $750,000 will be required.
This shows that the Democrats over
the country are affected with over
confidence and do not think it
necessary to do any work. Fellow
Democrats, if we are to win in No
vember there is much work to be
done. The prospect is bright and
if we work we can win. Do not
think we can win without more
money with which to make the
fight for human rights Have you
done your part? II not do so at
once, The great trusts are not 60
ing to contribute for the Democratic
cause. The people must put up
this money, because it is the people
who will profit most by Democratic
success. Democracy will give equa
and exact justice to all. That il
not what the great trusts want
They want special privileges.

Single Tax as the most Ubiquitous
piece of foolishness ever concocted.
Its passage would put the land
owner forever in the hands of the
high pirates of finance: it would
mean industrial servitude so far as
the farmer is concerned. Those

 Drink, Fight and Are Fined.

Francis Bellware, who resides on the Jordan road, and his son-in-law, Hen ry Vanasse, who lives on farm near Bingham's bridge, were before the po- lice court Tuesday morning, charged with intoxication. They were arrested Monday evening about 6.30 at the junction of the Windham Center and the South Windham roads, near the city line. The pair were drunk and had been fighting, 1t is alleged. Just what the fight was over was not as- certained in court. Bellware entered plea of guilty and was fined $5 and costs. Vanasse entered a plea of not guilty but was found guilty. As he had never been arrested before, he was fined $10 and costs and placed on probation for four months, the fine to be remttted at the end of that time should conditions warrant 1t.

GRANDMOTHER'S SECRET. To Darken the Hair and Restore Nat
 ural Color.

It is easier to preserve the color of the hair than to restore 1t, although it is possible to do both. Our grand mothers understood the secret. They made a sage tea" and their dark, glossy hair long after middle life was due to this fact. Our mothers have gray hairs before they are fifty, but they are beginning to appreciate the wisdom of our grandmothers in using sage tea for their hair and are fast following suit.
 The present generation has the ad- vantage of the past in that it can get ready to-us preparation called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy. AS a scalp tonic and color re- storer this preparation is vastly supe- rior to the ordinary sage tea" made by our grandmothers.
 The growth and beauty of the hair depends on a healthy condition of the scalp. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy quickly kills the dand- ruff germs which rob the hair of it's life, color and lustre, makes the scalp clean and healthy, gives the hair strength color and beauty, and makes it grow.
