WEALTH OF HAIR
Parisian Sage Makes Thin Lifeless
 Hair Soft and Abundant.

Beautiful hair, fluffy, lustrous, abundant and free from dandruff is one of Woman's greatest charms-it's her main delight-yet SO many of the fair sex who would be most attractive but for their streaked thin and life less hair, go on thinking there is no remedy. Quickly put aside such thoughts. Beautiful hair is largely a matter of a little care and attention. Parisian Sage rubbed into the scalp and applied to the hair with a sponge or cloth will work wonders. Do it daily for a week, then occasionally, and you will be surprised and de- lighted with the result-not only will the hair become abundant soft, fluffy, radiant with life, but really doubly beautiful.
 Parisian Sage supplies hair and scalp needs. It surely removes dandruff with one application and cleanses the hair Of all dirt and excessive oil. It is not sticky or greasy, is delicately perfumed, and contains nothing to in jure the hair or scalp. All drug and toilet counters sell it in fifty cent bot ties. Look for the trade nark-"The Girl with the Auburn Hair"
 Delighted users pronounce Parisian Sage the best, most pleasant and 1n- vigorating hair tonic made. Try at least one bottle. Lee & Osgood Co., will refund the money if you are not satisfied.

POETRY
A GREAT CAREER ENDS.

He had often been in battle and escaped
 without a scratch; He had met stampeded cattle and been
 much more than their match; He had rougned it in Alaska and es-
 capped without a bruise When cylclone in Nebraska blew the
 laces from his shoes. He had been reckless rover and had
 lived in many lands; He had driven camelS over great Sa-
 hara's burning sands: He had been a deep sea diver-not be-
 cause he liked it. though He had also started five or six reyoits
 in Mexico. He had been a Texas ranger and dar-
 ing army scout; He had been through every danger you
 have ever read about: He had been an aviator and a reckless
 steeplejack; From the poles to the equator he had
 travelled and come back. He could almost freeze ones marrow
 when he had the wish to try; HIS escape was mighty narrow wheS
 he was a Russian spy; But heu wade no more through
 slau~pter, for he shed his mortal
 coil When he drank a glass of water that
 his wife forgot to boil. -S. E. Riser, in the Chicago Record HeralA

-ADVERTIsING IS
 SELLING TO THE GROUP"
John Lee Mahlin.

We are all fortunate in being mem berS of many social groups. Member ship in the family group is economical 1y of inestimable value and prOcures for us one of our most lasting satisfac- tons- As a rule we are not conscious that we belong to groups. We have never thought about it. We are demo- crats or republicans. Protestants or Catholics, We are literary or athletic we go in for opera or the movies but quite without thinking of it as group activity.
 We enjoy being with and co-operat- ing with those who think as we do But unless we take an active part in the administration of their affairs, we benefit by membership in clubs, churches and other groups chiefly in that it relieves us of doing our think ing ourselves.
 The pulling force of the group idea is that membership in any one of them IS purely matter of Volltion. No man need belong to any group unless he group at will
 Every city is a concrete example of what the group idea Is worth.
 Our transportation facilities are evo- 1utions of the cooperative spirit Twenty-four trains between Chicago and New York are a fact because rail- road officials know that, each day in the year, a certain number of men can be depended upon practically to charter special train for the trip. Each one of them has the same physical com forts, luxuries and speed that a special train would give him-plus a, very sub st@rtlal saving on his ticket.
 4 department store is fundamentally and essentially the group of human beings whose confidence that store has won and is able to hold.
 Magazines, newspapers and class 1En~ Nf hat, groups very definite savings. A tech nical engineering journal gathers and gives out to large group of individ- uals, who can make effective use of it. information which has been collected by many individuals at a cost which would be prohibitive for any one mem her of the group.
 Several farm papers keep scientific specialists at work on experiments, the results of which have largely increased the yield per acre and have decreased the cost of farming.
 A daily newspaper delivers at ones home, for @ paltry sum,a complete can- vass of the world by cable and tele- graph plus the local news. No one person no matter how large his in- come, could afford to duplicate this in formation for his own pleasure or use.
 Magazines have fostered a, general appreciation of art and have incEeaseas the ability of artists by giving them a market for their product. A similar statement might be made with regard - the writinK of heokEs The .aXerass

of culture and refinement has been ma terally raised
 A newspaper or magazine is an inn possibility unless a we'll organized the knowledge which it is accustomed to receive through this particular channel
 An advertisement in magazine or a newspaper is effective in direct pro- portion to the degree to which it senses and touches the group idea which makes the publication possible.
 When the salesman realizes how small a part his personal sales are of the total consumption of the product he sells he begins to see what adver Using may mean to him. No matter how many assistants he may have, nor how he may organize and system atize their work, to call personally on the number of people whom he could persuade to prefer his product to that offered by others would be impossible. Realizing how little is needed to de- termine a preference in the purchasers mind, he calls on advertising to help him develop a demand for his wares.
 The far-seeing salesman realizes that the best way to go through a forest is to- follow a blazed trail He knows that human beings have been grouped in many different ways; he believes group can be formed for his product.
 Every man should find in his own business enough to absorb the bulk of his time and creative energy. By re- garding himself with relation to it as the custodian of a group of co-opera- tive buyers he can offer each member of the group better values at less in dividuaI outlay than would be called for should they buy individually
 A successful merchant is first stOrekeeper and then a salesman. The size of the store depends wholly upon his sales ability. The number of peo- pie whom he can reach and influence to come to his store constantly de- termines the scope of his business.
 That is why the most successful re- tail merchants are the best advertisers. They know that advertising is the most economical form of salesmanship.
 Many retailers cannot afford to use mediums which have a wider circula- ton than the trade territory in which their stores are located. They can, however, take advantage of all general advertising in these columns.
 Every housewife knows that when she buys from a peddler she is paying more than she would at a retailers, where she could make selections at her convenience from tho wide range which her merchant keeps.
 The same principle gives the best merchant in a community the first chance at desirable merchandise. For manufacturers find that it pays to sell one good merchant who has a large market rather than a number of small ones who are only moderately success ful in developing the group idea In their business.
 Advertising best serves the consun CT, the dealer and the manufacturer because it is the most economical means of initiating, developing and maintaining the group spirit in modern business life.

COLONIAL THEATER.
The Sword of DamocIes, Two Reel
 Feature Pathepay.

A picture of more than usual merit and interest Is a two reel subject at the Colonial today, entitled The Sword of Damocles, featuring Eleanor Wood run and Irving Cummings, the peerless players of the big Pathe cast. The story centers around a misunderstood genius, whose great opera is taken from him by unfair means and produc- ed as another's. The Education of Aunt Georgianna is a Vitagraph comedy with Maurice Costello, in which the stern aunt rules with an iron hand her nephew until the arrival of the niece. Then the two young people put their heads together. and she is willing to let them have their own way, and gives her consent to their marriage. Bron- cho Bflly's First Arrest is a superb presentation of MT Anderson's great character creation, and is a. thriIling and interesting western drama. The programme is concluded with The SmuggleT's Daughter, a powerful Lu- bin story dealing with opium snug gling along the border. An entire change of pictures will occur tonor- row, as usual.
