fades, turns gray, streaked and looks
dry, wispy and scraggy, just an appli-

Don't bother to prepare the tonic;
you can get from any drug store a SOC

can always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color, thickness and
luster OF your hair and remove dan

Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur because il darkens so natur-
ally and evenly that nobody can tell
it has been applied. You simply
dampen a sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through the hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray hair has disappeared, and
after another application it becomes
beautifully dark and appears glossy,

Good Time to Buy Furs

Custom has made Christmas
week a great Fur buying oc-
casion.
The merchants provide liberal
stocks and frequently offer un-
usually attractive prices.
But furs are something that
must be bought with caution.
There is plenty of room for
deception - for the foisting off
of cheap skins under high sound
ing names.
The buyer should patronize
the store of sound repute where
guarantee is certain.
And the guide to such stores

ing in the Telegraph.

AT THE VICTORIA

"A Price For Folly" an exceptional
Blue Ribbon photodrama produced by
the Vitagraph Company. does not aim
at commonplace realism, but strives to
strike deeper with an idealism that
delves into the mysteries of charac-
ter, and it is all done in a spiritual way,
possibly the very best way 1t could be
done.
The cast includes Edith Storey, Louise
Beaudet, Antonio Moreno, Charles Kent
and Harry Morey.
The theme reveals a picture of
sex instinct dominating all the finer
ideas and ideals man has acquired since
he emerged from his primitive state,
the persist domination of a desire to
strong for humanity unprepared by
self-control during the formative
period.

of Connecticut clock, buttons his
Chicago suspenders to Detroit over
alls, washes his face with Cincinnati
soap in a Pennsylvania wash pan,
sets down to a Grand Rapids table
and eats Chicago meats and Sioux

on st. Louis stove, puts New York
bride on a Missouri mule, plows corn
raised from Iowa seed on a farm COW
