ROBBING THE COAL PILE.
Smoke That Goes Up the Chimney Is
Fuel Thrown Away.

Fuel Thrown Away.
For the benefit Of any II who may
not see the analogy between a robbed
coal pile and a smoking chimney it
may be Urfehy and simply explained.
The visible part in smoke is nearly
all carbon. either as SCOT or cinder, and
carbon is the principal combustible
part of COAL. e., the useful part, the
part capable of yielding heat. Carbon
completely burned forms an invisible
gas, carbon dioxide; therefore when
ever the gases from a stack show
black they contain carbon. which indi-
Gates that complete combustion has
not taken place in the boiler furnace.
In other words. all Of the available
heat in the coal has not been realized.
1t is the same as though the CORE
spending part of the coal fed into the
furnace had been thrown away, for.
although it has passed through the
furnace, it has been thrown away up
the stack beyond recovery. Is this,
then. 50 very different from robbing
the coal pile?
The owner who through ignorance
allows conditions to exist which are
not favorable to the most economical
operation Of his boiler furnaces, al
though he is unwittingly robbing him
self. is nevertheless stealing from his
own coal pile.-POwer.

plants

That such plants as Venus fy trap"
actually catch and squeeze to death
flies and other insects alighting on
their leaves has long been known, but
the discovery is comparatively recent
that the plants digest the softer parts
of their prey by means of a peptic fer
ment secreted by the leaves. These
are real instances of plants feeding
upon animals.

few FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
well-known Local Druggist Says
Everybody Is Using 0ld-time re-
cipe OF Sage Tea And Sulphur

Hair that loses It color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
Mfeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
|phur to keep her locks dark and.
beautiful, and thousands of women
and men who value that even color,
that beautiful dark shade of hair
which is so attractive, use only this
|old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
Ia so cent bottle Of ':Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, SO evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. Besides, it takes off
|dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall
ing hair. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking
|one small strand at 4 time. BY morn
ling the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladies with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also
brings back the gloss and lustre and
gives it an appearance of abundance.
