If HAIR is TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't Look Old! Try Grandmother's
Recipe to Darker and Beauty
Gray, Faded, LifeIess Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect By asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy you will get a
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about SO cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is splendid for dan
druff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hairs taking
one strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, it is re-
stored to it's natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. Adv.

FOR IDEAL OF RECREATION
Subject That Is Worthy Of Much More
Study Than Is Generally
Given to It.

What women throughout the country
still need is a freer association with
other women whose standards, social,
intellectual and moral, are higher than
their own, writes Anne Morgan in the
Woman's Home Companion. AS peo-
pie we are too inclined to seek lower
standard for our recreation, to lever
down. We seek a companionship
where no intellectual. effort is neces-
sary; we choose a theater where the
entertainment furnished is popular
musical comedy, rather than play
with literary merit, interpreted by tai
ented actors. Certain popular maya
zines with large circulation contain
stories and articles utterly valueless
in quality; other publications contain
ing literary and historical contr1Du-
tons by serious authors reach but few
homes. In our recreation, as In our
work. we want immediate results with
a minimum of effort; to be entertained
generally means to be relaxed. me
splendid rest and refreshment that
comes with great, but different, intel
lectual or physical effort is known only
to the few. The ideal life would be
for the daily existence to be so ordered
that no definite holiday time would be
necessary-e twenty-four hours
would bring its own period Of work.
play and rest. In our complicated civ
ilization, however. this is well nigh i'm
possible. 1t has been humorously said
that the only person who really needs
a vacation is the man who has just re-
turned from one.

Why Onion Cures Cold.

To eat raw onion is an old rem
edy for curing cold, and many have
found that it works well in practice.
But why the onion should possess this
curative property few have taken the
time to ascertain; in fact, not one in
a hundred can give the exact reason
or reasons. Some may say that the
smell drives the cold away, but that
is frivolous.
There is an oil found in the onion,
chives, radish and horseradish that
plays an important part in curing the
cold. This oil and the sulphur which
is also contained in these plants have
deadly effect upon the harmful
germs that flourish in various parts
of the body and are the chief cause of
the common cold

Use of the Antennae.

1t is certain that spiders can smell,
yet they have no antennae, nor any
organs that may be compared to the
antennal organs of insects. This is
another argument against the anten-
nae being organs of SMELL All insects
either have antennal organs like those
of the bees, or notifications of them.
yet no two authors who have studied
them have agreed concerning their
function. Such chaos can be replaced
by facts, only when the behavior Of
the insects investigated is thoroughly
studied and when experiments are per-
formed in ways other than on the an
tennae alone. Then it will be realized
that the antennae can no longer be re-
garded as a possible seat of the sense
of smell in insects.

Sinking Of Wrecks.

Very little is known as to the depth
to which a ship will sink, as the
depth at which observations can be
made is limited. Any statement on
the matter must be in the nature Of
conjecture. In the case of wooden
ships, many did not sink, but became
waterlogged and f1oated for years a
short distance below the surface, con-
stituting a serious danger to navi-
cation. The more modern types Of
vessels have occasionally fioated for
some time in this way, being aban-
doned perhaps because of leak, but
sinking eventually. A modern liner
which sinks certainly goes to the bot
tom in any instance where the nee
essary observation is possible. The
greatest known depth of the ocean is
about five and one-half miles, and the
average, save in the Arctic and
Antarctic oceans where the water is
shallower, would be from two to three
miles. 1t is debatable point wheth-
er liner sinks to the ocean bed in
that depth, but when badly damaged,
as in the case of the Titanic, it is prob
able that she goes a great distance
below the surface and may even reach
the bottom.

MANKIND's DEBT TO BIRDS
Work Done by Winged Carriers Of
Seeds Is as a General Thing
Underestmated.

Now and then we see thriving bit
of grass or Towering plant perched
in some impossible niche, high in a
wall or chimney. Sometimes the wind
has carried the seed there and with
the help of little dust and some rain,
the seed has found sufficient encour-
agement to sprout.
But it is not SO often the wind as it
is the birds, who have deposited the
seed. Sometimes it has dropped from
their beaks in flight, but more aften it
has passed undigested through the in
testines and falls well fortified to
sprout. This is especially true in dry
seasons, when the birds swallow less
grit and so the seeds swallowed are
not SO readily ground up.
If it were not for the birds our
Christmas supply of mistletoe and
holly would be very scarce, as in the
case of the parasite mistletoe especial
ly, the seeds from the berries would
rarely, without birds help, find their
way up to the limbs of trees, where
they can attach themselves to the bark
and gain the needed assistance.

EFFECT OF THE IMAGINATION
ON HEALTH.

A medical journal reports the case
of a clergyman who was sent to a hos
pital suffering terribly. He said he
had swallowed several false teeth and
the plate, and that he felt the horrible
grinding and cutting of these in his
stomach.
The physician in attendance tried
to talk him out of this idea, but to no
purpose. A little while later tele-
gram from his wife informed him that
the teeth had been found under the
bed Mortified and chagrined at hav-
ing made such fool of himself, the
clergyman, free from his imaginary
suffering, Immediately got up, dressed
himself, paid his bill and went home
without assistance.
As long as the man was convinced
that the false teeth were in his stom-
ach, all the talking in the world could
not have made him believe that his
suffering was a delusion. This con-
viction had to be changed first.
Medical history shows that thou

vinced they had diseases which in
reality they never had. The trouble

Few of US realize the almost super

every year die with imaginary hydro

summoned to attend patient who

He had no medicine case, no drugs

knowing the power of suggestion,

greatest care as to the exact time and
manner of taking. They were to be
given every few minutes.
The patient was told that he was be-

his great faith in the physician and

comnIete Culture.

Matthew Arnold defined culture as
acquaintance with the best that had
been said, done and thought in pre-
vious ages, and regarded such &C
quaintance as essential to correct con-
ceptions of life and duty and ade-
Quate enjoyment of the high priv.
lege of living. And he was right,
but not entirely so, for life is more
than culture, and some of the most
cultured men have been the most
heartless oppressors of their fell
lows. That which makes man man
is that he is made in Gods image, is
that his is a divine nature, that he
is destined to see him as he is. In
order to be a completely made man,
he shall need to give heed in his
preparation to his divine nature. to
the cultivation OF his divine attri-
butes, that he may grow in greater
likeness to his Father and be prepared
to stand before his judgment throne
