There is nothing new about the
idea OF using Sage for restoring the

kept their hair dark, glossy and

sage tea" Whenever their hair
fell out or took on a dull, faded or
streaked appearance, they made a
brew of sage leaves, and applied il
to their hair with wonderfully ben
fetal effect.

headaches come from over indulgence
in eating and drinking. Bathing in
salt water followed by vigorous rub

OUR DAILY CHANCE.

Not long ago l picked up all old
magazine that contained a copy of
the noted poem on Opportunity, ="
by the late Senator Ingals. Every
one remembers he says that 1T
"knocks upon the door but once. -
The re-reading is apt to make ones
thoughts go in many directions, far
away, perhaps, from the one the
writer had in mind.
Lost opportunities should have no
place in the thoughts OF the day.
The mind should not dwell in the
past, nor yet too much in the future.
The first can never return, the other
may never come. The present is all
we can call our own, and in it are
countless valuable opportunities, the
embracing of which will bring hap
piness, not only to others, but our
selves as we'll. That means success
the magic thing for which we are all
striving.
We only realize in part the good
that comes from speaking a simple
kind word. One has only to go
among people and watch the different
expressions on the face of the one re-
ceiving it. The dear fathers and
mothers, whose days of active service
are over, often sit alone, too keenly
realizing that their places have been
filled. | wish some word OF reminder
could reach the hearts OF the thought
less and cause them to say just few
words to these, even though they
may have some traits of character
not exactly pleasing. We all may
have some equally SO, sometime.
There is a growing tendency to for
get that these older people may have
done more for themselves than we
have done for ourselves. That their
years of experience must have given
them knowledge that only time can
give us. "We have to live life time
to learn how to live." Then there
are the sick, the poor, the respondent
and the unlucky, that we meet every
day, who so sadly need some word OF
cheer, and last, but not least our
own.

Smiles for the sometimes guest;

In the struggle to gain a higher
level for ourselves let us be broad
enough to give word of honest
praise to other toilers. Let us recog-
nize and rejoice in their talents and
not refrain from telling them how
glad we are of their success. We
know, deep down in our own hearts
that we too are made childishly hap
ply when we are so favored. Let US
rally to the standard of kind words.

FAMILY DOCTOR GIVES MOTHER
SOME VACATION HEALT HINTS

II wonder why II is that people are
so often sick when they return from
their vacation" asked a mother OF
her family physician just before two
of her daughters left for their annual
outing.
1t seems as If Helen and Mar
garet always come home from their
outings, with some illness or other"
Then the good old family doctor
told this mother what she should have
known herself had she used a bit
of thoughtfulness with a grain of
sense.
It's because they upset all their
regular habits OF living. they eat ey-
erything and anything, and at all
hours of the day or night, they drink
any kind OF water. whether they know
its source or not. and they never
question the kind of ice used in their
food They expose themselves very
frequently to extreme heat, they re-
main in the water longer than they
should. and don't follow the dictates
OF good judgment in going into the
water. And just naturally. after q
couple of weeks or more OF this sort
of living they come home much worse
off than when they went away. It
takes them two or three weeks TO get
over the over-indulgence OF their ap-
petite, the fatigue. and all. OF their
vacation"
What the old doctor said sounded
mighty logical TO the thinking moth
er, and so before her daughters went
away she gave them SO many pre-
cautions and Sas so persistent in her
advice as to their care Of them
selves. that the poor girls thought
