use for about so cents. This simple
mixture can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for dandruf

A weIl-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and sulphur. heca Sc it darkens SO
naturally and evenly that nobody
can tell it has been applied-it's SC
easy TO use, too. You simply damper

WILSON FIGHT ON
FREE TOLLS seen
President Expected TO Start War
When He Asks Congress
to Repeal Act.

Washington, Oct. 15.--It was
learned today that the President
recommending to con
gress at the regular session the re-
peal of the free tolls provision of
the canal act. 1t has been made
clear to the President, however,
that if he sends in the recommenda-
tion it viii stir up large-sized row
in both houses. The White House
has let 1t be known that the Presi-
dent has not made up his mind posi-
lively about the repeal but neverthe-
less among those close to him it is
understood that such is his design.
The sentiment for free tolls in
both houses is strong. Some of the
most influential Democrats in both
houses are for free tolls, and if there
is any effort at repeal there will be
strong opposition. 1t is doubtful
whether binding caucus action to
repeal free tolls can be obtained
either in the House or Senate, and
especially In the Senate.
Senator OGorman Of New York
/ is chairman of the canals commit
| tee of the Senate. He is strong for
free tolls and may be relied on to
night any effort at repeal He will
be large factor in the situation.
Among advocates of free tolls is
Congressman Doremus of Michigan,
chairman of the Democratic congress
