The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its nat
ural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used it to keep her
hair beautifully dark, glossy and
abundant. Whenever her hair fell
out or took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drugstore for 50-cent bottle of
ssWyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for dandruff,
dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling
hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
saws it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied. You simply dam
pen a sponge or soft brush with il
and draw this through your hair
taking one strand at a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears
and after another applications OF
two it becomes beautifully dark
glossy, soft and abundant. (Adv. }

many of these requirements. Further the help of American labor must also be invited for our labor is more inter- ested than any other party in finding a profitable market for its products. In order to conquer foreign markets la Dor must recognize the necessity oI meeting foreign competition, and VIII have to learn that it cannot impose prohibitive burdens in the form o1 excessive wages and oppressive regu' lations, except to it's own disadvantage American labor already possesses good start owing to plants, methods and organiza tions which are often su perior to any of those abroad. If each division of industry will but do its share, there will be no doubt about success in our gaining a position in the worlds markets commensurate with our skill and ability.
 The halt in speculation which be- gan three weeks ago was prolonged through this week by the holidays, by developments in the Balkans, by a feeling that the war stocks had more than discounted their future. and by the consequent bearishness of some of the leading traders. The undertone of the markets has, how ever, unquestionably improved through liquidation and the test thus applied to values. Towards the end Of the week there was more aggres- sive buying, and good stocks found ready support. As to fundamental conditions the outlook continues fa- vorable; trade revival seems to be making further progress, especially in the steel and textile industries; en- terprise is recovering; railroad earn ings show better results, both gross and net; money is easy and plentiful; gold continues to come in freely from abroad; sterling exchange is still ad- vancing, and a good investment de- mand prevails for all desirable is- sues. December dividend payments will be SAY, 100000, or $10,000,000 more than last year. Next week Con- gress opens, and it's drift will be watched with intense interest. The war is sure to make its impress upon Congress during the session and, as previously said, problems pertaining to revenue, preparedness, shipping tariff, etc, promise to occupy first In view of the approach of a presidential year, it may be session filled with much and perhaps excited discussion, but little real ac- ton beyond what is necessary.

FOREIGN TRADE
 BUILDS UP FAST
War Has Stimulating Effect on
 American Enterprise

New York, Nov. 27.-Our foreign
 trade continues on it's phenomenal
 course and is building up the greatest
 favorable trade balance on record
 October exports reached a new high
 level,D amounting to $334, ,Oo0,
 which was almost $40,000,0O0 in ex-
 cess of September The imports for
 October were only $14S,500,000, leav-
 ing an excess of exports amounting
 to $1S6, 100000: During the past
 twelve months our total foreign trade
 exceeded s5,0o0, 100000, of which
 S,oO0,OoO were exports and
 $1 ,691 100000 imports, leaving an ex-
 cess f exports for the year of $1,626.-
 100000. During the same twelve
 months our net imports of gold were
 s326,000,0OO. This tremendous ex-
 pansion of foreign obligations in the
 United States has undoubtedly been
 largely adjusted by gold imports, by
 the liberal return of securities, by the
 placing of large foreign loans and by the granting of very unusual foreign credits. That our foreign trade is now or a much more satisfactory status than at the beginning of the year is
 shown by the recent recovery of 20
 oints in sterling exchange and the
 diminished pressure of commercial
 bills. The future of our exports is somewhat uncertain. We shall prop ably soon reach the high peak for this season, if we have not done so al-
 ready. Food and cotton exports will shortly have reached their highest level, and the shipments of war mu- nitions within a few weeks or months will become less urgent. The Allies
 now report that they are we'll SUD- piled with explosives, and in view of the tremendous increase in the ca racity for British output of munitions it is likely that in future the volume of orders placed with American manu- lecturers will be materially reduced No early end. of the war is in sight,
 but the emergency orders for the Allies are being satisfied, and their continuance on the recent scale is inn proba ble.
 One of the most significant and sat isfactory results of the war is it's stimulating effect upon American en- terprise More than anything else it has forced upon Us recognition that we are world power, commercially
 and industrially as We'll as politically. We have too long considered ourselves
 self-sufhclent and laboral under the deluslon that we could indefinitely shut ourselves in and others out. We ] must awaken to the fact that we are 1 a nation of grown-ups; we must take our place in the worlds affairs ac- cordingly and adapt Ourselves. to the new opportunities and new .obl;sa lions
