GRAY l.. : BECOMES @,"-'
DARK, THICK, GLOSSY
Try Grandmother'S Old Fav-
orite Recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture was
to make it at home, which is mussy
and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about so cents Ev-
erybOdy uses this old, famous recipe,
because no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and af-
ter another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark. thick
and glossy and you look years young

CITY ALLEYS CUT
HANDICAP IN TWO

City Team in Slow

CITY ALLEYS,

By Encouragement effected last
night, all handicaps used in the league
at the City alleys have been cut fifty
per cent. This was made necessary
because the relative strength of the
teams has changed considerably since
the league started. Thus the Victors
have been playing with a handicap
Of 10 given them, and have taken a
lead that the other teams will find it
hard to overcome
Last night the Nationals defeated
the Quaker City bunch twice in a
rather slow series. Hodge played in
excellent form in the second game
rolling 228, the high score of the even
ing Elkenberry was the only other
man that passed the 100 mark. The

A Little Book That Contains Some

A little book selling at only five
cents, postpaid, is having a very wide
Notwithstanding up into the mil
lions. 1t contains some very startling
information respecting the meaning of
the word He'll 1t claims to demon
strate, both from the Hebrew and the
Greek Of our Bible, that He'll is NOT
a place Of eternal torment, but merely
another name for the TOMB, the
GRAVE, the STATE OF DEATH. 1t
affects to show that man was not re-
deemed from a far-off place of eternal
torture, but quotes the Scriptures prov
ing that he was REDEEMED from the
GRAVE at the cost of his Redeemers
LIFE and that the Scriptural Hope.
both for the Church and the World,
is a resurrection hope based upon the
death and resurrection of Jesus. The
book is certainly worth the reading

MAINTENANCE NEEDFUL
Permanent" Improvement of Roads
Must Include Appropriations
for Maintenance.

Washington, July 13.-That one
of the most serious and most fire.
quent mistakes in the good roads
movement is failure to provide for
maintenance, is asserted by Jonathan
Bourne, Jr., chairman of the joint
committee on federal aid to good
roads, who has made an extensive
study of the problem.
THE expression permanent i'm
provement' is likely to be a delusion
and a snare said Bourne today.
The permanency of an Improvement
depends largely upon the character
of maintenance. The stone or gravel
surface as well as the foundation of
a highway needs constant attention,
similar to the care given the steel
rails and roadbed of a railroad. 1t
is the repair of the small break, the
filling of the small rut, that prevents
more serious damage.
"All highway authorities empha-
size the Importance of a system of
maintenance. Hence, in my plan for
federal aid to good roads, l provided
for an annual payment to the states
of an amount equal to per cent of
the cost of construction-the states
to expend an equal amount for the
same purpose. This aid to mainten-
ance will not only insure that roads
will be kept in repair, but is an add
ed inducement for the states to ac-
cept the federal aid to construction.
Their maintenance allowance would
be in proportion to their participa-
tion in the aid to construction.
I'm France road patrolmen are en-
ployed to care for certain sections of
highway. Their tools consist chiefly
of wheelbarrow and shovel, with
which they repair every defect, in it's
incipiency. These men keep the
roads in repair until the harvest sea-
son begins and then are left free to
seek more profitable employment
among the farmers of the commun-
ity. A road kept in repair until that
time will need no attention during
the harvest period. The highway pa
trolmen, therefore, afford a constant
supply of labor upon which the farm
ers can depend for part of their har-
vest help.
Il believe very similar system
will be worked out in this country
and in order to encourage the adop-
tion of some system of maintenance
in all the states l included mainten-
ance allowance in my suggested plan
for federal aid. In order to avoid
building up great federal machine,
however, l would have these repair
men under the employ of the states.'
