A wellknown downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur, because it darkens so natur-
ally and evenly that nobody can tell it

too. You simply dampen a sponge or
soft brush and draw it through your

stored to its natural color and looks

dental clinic in the public schools.
He recommends a family visitor as
well as a superintendent and investi-
gator for the Charities department.

returned to the city treasury for as
sessments for permanent paving that

for permanent pavement is necessary
this year. but he recommends a one

paving than permanent pavement in
various streets.
