DISCOVERY COMES
AFTER 5000 YEARS
Buffalo House Takes the Taste
Out Of Castor Oil.

Since the earliest days of medicine
chemists have been trying to take the
taste out of castor oil.
The secret has at last been discov-
cred by Spencer kellogg X Sons of Buf-
falo. who are among the largest pro
ducers and reiiners of vegetable oils
in the world They have removed
the castor oil taste, and smell. TOO,
purifying the oil and making it better
and more effective. Nothing is added
to it. nothing good taken out of it.
Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil IS
tastelesS in the true sense. Even chill
dren take it easily, for all the nau-
seating effect is removed.
Sold now at all drug stores in Zoe
and soc sizes. Ask for kellogg's Taste
less Castor Oil by name. for there are
several preparations of castor Oil,
mixed and favored, which are not
tasteless and do not act as well.
The public is protected by the trade

Developing Water Power.
{ RandoIph Iierald.l


1t. is agreed that Vermont ought to
have first call on the hydro-electrie
power generated within her borders,
but she ought not to play the dog in
the manper. If there are unused water
powers that outside capital stands
ready to develop, it would be very
foolish policy TO prevent it merely be
cause capital is taking hold when our
own does nothing. Or to forbid il be
cause the power or part of it is trans
mitted outside when we have no use
for it here. The thing to do is to
protect our own present and future by
careful stipulation that gives priority
OF claim TO our own industries; then
bid the developers welcome. The thing
works both ways, as the Brattleboro
Reformer points out when it says that
the electric power that IS fast making
! Brattleboro an industrial city comes
not from Vermont but from New
Hampshire.

GRAY HAIR TURNS ITS NATURAL
COLOR AFTER APPLYING SAGE TEA

-. about so cents. Some druggists make
their own but it's usually too sticky. so
insist upon getting "Wyeth's' which can
be depended upon to restore natural col
or and beauty to the hair and is the
best remedy for dandruff, dry, feverish,
itchy scalp and to stop falling hair.
Folks like ''Wyeth's Sage and sulphur"
because no one can possibly tell that you
darkened your hair, as it does 1t so nat
urally and evenly, says a well-known
downtown druggist. You dampen a
sponge or soft brush and draw 1t through
your hair, taking one small strand at a
time. This requires but a few moments,
by morning the gray hair disappears and
after another application or two is re-
stored to it's natural color and looks even
more beautiful and glossy than ever.
