Quinter, Kan, Nov. 16.--Good roads

meeting an organization was perfected
and the following officers were
chosen: W. H. Wigington, president:
H. r. Turtle, vice president; Lisle Nc
chimney, secretary, and H. Z. Porter,
treasurer.
1t was mutually agreed that the
township board grade the Golden
Belt through the township, about nine
miles, thus making it a county road,
and the business men of Quinter to
grade a like number of miles on the
other roads leading out of the town,
while the farmers are expected to do
as much or more If the Quinter peo-
pie succeed in their plans it will re-
suit in the grading of about thirty
miles of road leading to the town. The
work is to be done by a contract
grader, who has already started upon
his work.

use Grandmother's simple recipe
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color, and
1ustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray; also ends dandruff, Itch
ing 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,
by asking at any drug store for

pound you will get a large bottle of
this famous old recipe for about so
cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it. 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 morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another p
pliction or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy

BAN ON MILITARY TOYS
Wichita Would Substitute Play En-

Wichita, Kan, Nov. 16.-Santa
Claus will distribute no military toys
in Wichita next Christmas if a move
ment inaugurated among the Parent
Teachers association here meets with
response.
1t is pointed out that Americas
mission in the world today is to pro-
mote peace" and that we can not look
to future generations to carry out the
idea If we instill thoughts of war, and
suggested that toys of progress" in
stead of those of war, be purchased.
Railroad engines, miniature pieces of
farm machinery and other toys which
may breed industry should be used
instead, it is said.

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural. 1t is just as
natural as it is for old people to walk
slowly For age is never so active as
youth The muscles are less elastic.
And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets One
might as well refuse to aid weak eyes
with glasses as to neglect this gentle
aid to weak bowels. The bowels must
be kept active. This is important at
all ages, but never so much as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into activity. But lash can't
be used every day. What the bowels
of the old need is a gentle and natural
tonic. One that can be constantly
used without harm. The only such
tonic is Cascarets, and they cost only
10 cents per box at any drug store

Very Effective Method
for Banishing Hairs
Modes of Today

AT very little cost any woman can
rid her face of hairy srowths. if she
will use the delatone treatment This
is made by mixing some water with
little powdered delatone. This paste
is cpread upon the hairy surface for 2
or minutes. then rubbed off and the
skin washed, when every trace of hair
will have vanished. No harm results
from this treatment. but care should
be used TO buy real delatone.-Adver-

REPORT MANY CASES
 OF RHEUMATISM NOW
Says we must keep feet dry; avoid
 exposure and eat less - meat.

Stay off the damp ground, avoid exposure, keep feet dry, eat less meat, drink lots of water and above all take spoonful of salts occasionally to keep down uric acid.
 Rheumatism is caused by poisonous Dvpxin, caled uric acid which is gene Eated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood It is the function of the Kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine. The pores of the skin are also means of freeing the blood of this i'm purity. Tn damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing rkhe kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the Joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism.
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put a tablespoon ~ Jul in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the. blood of these impurities.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia > land is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have pleas ant, effervescent Whitewater drink which overcomes uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as well.

 Speaker Has Local Connection.
 It is said that Major O'Keefes fam iliarity with conditions in New Britain is due to the fact that for some time he has handled the advertising of sev- eral New Britain manufacturers, in cluding Landers, Frary & Clark and the American Hardware Corporation He was introduced by President E. w Christ as "a wiza rd." Major O'Keefe spoke briefly on the organization and the purposes of the Pilgrim publicity association and described the work it has done in promoting advanced prin- ciples of publicity.
 President Christ explained that the regular meetings of the different bureaus were omitted this month be- cause the committees have not yet progressed far enough in their inves- tigahons to make report. Secretary Andrews was called upon for a brief report of the work that is being at tempted by the different committees.
 The work done by the committees is the most important in the entire Chamber of Commerce, said MT. An drews. The committees are not called together to decide what is best to do or what ought to be done. The com mittees of the various bureaus are ap- pointed to investigate subjects re- ferred to them and report back to the various bureaus, making recommend atons based upon facts. not merely upon opinions. As result Of this method of procedure the directors and the people may always feel sat isfied that sufficient facts have been gathered to justify the conclusion ar rived at.
 The committees of the Mercantile bureau are those on cooperative de- nNeTy on tTaOe COnO1l1OnS ana e&ten- sion, and uniform hours and prac- tices. A satisfa ctory cooperative de- livery system will not be worked out by the committee for some time, but a satisfa ctory schedule will be re- ported shortly by the committee on uniform hours and practices.
 Under the Civic bureau, one com mittee is at work on the matter of laws to restrict the movement of tubercular persons, another is at work on street railway extension, an other is Investigating charities, a fourth has under considera tion the matter of public ownership of public utilities, and a fifth committee Is making a study of city charters.
