ELECTRICITY TO IMPROVE
FOOD Is LATEST THEORY.
Physicians at Berlin Assert Currents
Aid Digestion.

An interesting feature of the session
of the ph%ysiotherapy congress in Ber-
lin recently was a report On the excel
lent work done at the French Radium
institute by Drs. Wickham and Degrals.
They have discovered that X rays de-
stroy the swent glands. seal UP the
blood vessels and have a selectiye In
fiuence on n cells. causing their
replacement with normal cells instead
Of destroying them absolutely.
In the section for electrotherapy DIR.
Bergonie of Bordeaux discussed the ac-
ton Of high frequency electric currents
on m~etabollsm. He said the efficiency
OF food was much increased by these
currents. Seventy per cent of he food
which passed through the body undl-
gested could be taken up by the It's
sues when the currents were applied
The currents also destroyed certain mi
crobes. particularly those of malaria.
DR.. Kraft of Welsser Hirsch. near
Dresden. in a speech which was warm.
ly ~applauded said 1t would be well to
extend instruction In the preparation
of food 10 housewives. He declared
that vegetables especially lost a ire
mendous portion OF their n%ourishing
qualities when they were prepared in
the usual German fashion. DIR. Kraft
asserted that mankind's knowledge OF
foodstuffs was only fragmentary and
that the method of estimating value by
calorics was useless and bungling."

GETTING GRAY? Use SAGE TEA TO
RESTORE NATURAL COLOR Of HAIR

alton called "Weyth's Sage and Sui.
phur Hair Remedy" Customers like
this best because it darkens so natur-
ally; 50 evenly, that nobody can pos
sibly tell it has been applied. Be-
sides, it contains ingredients which
take off dandruff, stop scalp itching
and falling hair, No. it isn't a dye or
even like #. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur" and draw it through your
hair, taking one small strand at a
time. BY morning the gray hair dis
appears; amer another application or
Two it is restored to it's natural color.
What delights the ladies with
Wyeth's Sage and sulphur is that be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
they say it brings back the gloss and
lustre and gives it an appearance Of
abundance.

BANKERS BEAT
 BAPCOS BADLY
Once More; Payer Team Seems to Have No Luck at All, and National Bank Team Puts Skiddoo Sign on Cement Mixers

A pavement is to be walked on.
 The Bapco baseball team is also to be walked on.
 The National Bank of Arizona team yesterday afternoon walked all over the payers and then to make it worse tagged them with a score of skiddoo to one.
 That in a few words is the state of affairs in the l. | E. L League of the Salt River valley Whenever q team wants to pile up it's Pet figures, it gets a game with the luckless layers of bi- tulithiS.
 The game was onesidedly fast The bankers had a tight little infield. and they used it to the very best advantage The infield work of the Barbers was loose, and they showed a tendency to slam the pill mile or so over the first sackers heaven pointing mitt whenever the chance came. Sullivan who tWirled for the Bankers was in fine form with all the speed and control he needed He was well backed by a snappy near gar cen and a fair bunch of stargaZerS. only one man saw third, the one who crossed the pan later. All the rest of them were nipped at second or before. But few of the Bapcos succeeded in pasting the pill, while the money changers landed frequently and with results, The bankers scored 14-count 'em-l4 runs in the fifth inning,
 In the second space, Smith who started on the hill for the Barbers re tired to second to think it over, and ! Newell went in for him. The line up:

OF his occupancy Of the Office AS
matter of fact, there are weeks at
stretch when, under normal conditions.
the daily mail will seldom exceed zOV
letters and the average for long In
tervals during the last administrator
was in the neighborhood OF $50 letters

But this normal volume may be
quickly changed to the abnormal. Inc

man who has no mail delivered by car

stead rents lockbox at the local post
Office or nearest postal station. No
mail is delivered by regular carrier at
