there must be no punishment, either
direct or indirect, inflicted upon the
mother. In addition the public health
authorities should be given power to
supply every expectant mother with

everything she needs at such a time
at the expense of the community.
Indeed, would go further. There
should be no discrimination between
married and unmarried mothers of
war babies" All should be given
a fair chance. When so much life IS

Just few applications will prove a
revelation If your hair is fading, gray
or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing
the Sage Tea and sulphur recipe al
home, though, is troublesome. An
easier way is to get the ready-to-use
tonic, costing about so cents a large
bottle at drug stores, known as wy
eth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
thus avoiding a lot Of muss.
While wlspy, gray, faded hair is
not sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one
can tell, because it does so naturally
Sc evenly. You just dampen a sponge
or roft brush with II and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared, and, after an
ether application or two, your hair
leccmes beautifully dark. glossy, soft
and lCxuriant.
