The dullness OF the morning was
followed by absolute stagnation In
the latter session. There was more
than the usual lack OF initiative for
both accounts. The approach OF the

International bankers were giving
some attention to opportunities from
abroad. chiefly Berlin. where money
continues to be in demand in con

The Cost OfLiVing
and Electric Light
One costs more daily
1.-The other costs less

In these days Of soaring prices it is a relief to find one
necessity" whose cost is decreasing instead Of increasing.
For the past thirty years the cost of electric lighting has
been steadily growing leSG A few years ago, ten cents
worth of current would light a 10 candle power lamp for
twenty hours. Now, ten cents worth of current will light
a % candle-power lamp for Is hours.
Twice as much light, for more hours, from the same
amount Of electricity means real economy.
The new Edison Mazda Lamp costs
a little more 20 install than the old
10 cande-power lamp, but IT saves
the extra cost in a few hours burning.
Come in and see this new lamp that has a flament. or
burner, made from drawn wire as strong as steel. We
have all sizes.

A HARMLESS WAY TO
OARKEN THE HAIR
A Little Sage and Sulphur Makes
Gray Hair vanish-A Remedy
for All Hair Troubles.

Who does not know the value Of
Sage and Sulphur for keeping the
hair dark. soft and glossy and in
good condition? As a matter OF fact,
Sulphur is a natural element Of hair,
and deficiency of it in the hair is
held by many scalp specialists to be
connected with loss of color and vi
tally of the hair. PROFESSIONALLY,
there is no better remedy for hair
and scalp troubles. especially prcma-
ture grayness. than Sage and Sui
phur. if properly prepared.
The Wyeth Chemical Company OF
New York put out an ideal prepare
ton Of this kind. called Wycth's Sa &c
and sulphur Hair Remedy, in which
Sac and sulphur are combined with
other valuable remedies for keepin :
tie hair and scalp in clean, healthy
condition.
II your hair is losing its color o.
constantly coming out. or if you are
troubled with dandruif or dry. itchy
scalp, get a fifty cent bottle o.
Wyeth's sage and sulphur from your
druggist. use it according to the
simple directions, and see what ::
difference !; few days treatment will
make in the appearance OF your hair
All druggists sell it. under guar
antec that the money will be re-
funded if the remedy is not exactly
as represented.

AN APPRECIATION OF
WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN

Guiding noble appeal to mans best

popular platform reign and probably
never will again.
Greater Goals than the Presidency

Mr.. Bryan has attained to unique
ness and a fame that the presidency

become president of the United
States, but only one man has i'm

battle of his life. Mr. Bryan will

Only member.

The greatest privilege of any gen.
GRAFTON is its contempraneousnes
with a truly great and good man.
Not the least privilege of this gener-
alton, as | seee it. is its contempora-
ncOusness with Mr.. Bryan. Forty,
fifty. sixty years hence to have heard
Bryan will be glory enough for
many a grandfather who will tell
the wondering lad on his kness Of
the great days when the eloquent
Aebraskan was in the midst Of his
extraordinary career.
Mr.. Bryan is today the most DOM

the millions will give it hearty at
armation.
Unrivalled on the Platform
After sixteen years of almost con-
slant campaigning and public speak
ing tours such as no other American
has equalled. no other man today
can draw such vast audiences as Mr..
Bryan. Not even Wilson, the Schol-
ar. nor Roosevelt. the Picturesque

the millions. The crowds that flock
to hear Mr.. Bryan during the Chat

On the masses. For one thing, they
give the lie fatty to the statement
one hears occasionally that the age
Of Oratory is gone. A Bryan Day at
Chautaupua is 1.-THE great day of the
feast" The big crowd gathers early
and patiently waits through heat
and dust or rain for the coming OF
the COmmOner. Mr.. Bryan arrives
amid cheers and as he smilingly
mounts the platform, the crowd rises
en- massc and there is a great llutter-
ing of handkerchiefs and more and
louder cheering. Then, for tw,

Mr.. Bryan's face and bold brow
would attract attention anywhere.
At Edinburgh, two years ago. at the
World Missionary Conference,
thought Mr.. Bryan the most distin-

~ of many distinguished and noble
looking men. Mr.. Bryan's demo-
cratic tastes in clothes are well
known to his countrymen. Uspally
