HAVE DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG
Don't stay grayi Nobody can tel
when you darken gray, faded hair
with Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
snce, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drugstore for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" 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 dandruff,
dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known down town druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur, because it darkens so natur-
ally and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied-it's so easy to use
too. You simply dampen a comb or
soft brush and draw it through your
hair, taking one strand at time. BY
morning the gray hair disappears; af-
ter another application or. two, it is
restored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. ADV

the women's vote at the primaries,
which Mrs. Young denied in the Chi
cago Tribune of March 1, 1915. Her
denial was copied into the Woman's
Jorunal of March 20; and our leading
ants read the Woman's Journal care
fully, in order to find things to crit
else.
Among many statements of ques-
tionable accuracy in the show win
dow, there were three which every
well-informed anti knows to be di-
rectly contrary to fact. If they were
not rather hard up for true argu-
ments, the opponents of equal rights
probably would not resort to SO many

ROTAR|ANS IN
ROLE OF POETS
BIG TIME AT THE WEEKLY
MEETING OF ROTARY CLUB
WHEN ALL MEMBERS READ
POEMS ON ROTARY

Poetry flowed from the lips of the
Rotarians yesterday at their weekly
meeting like water over the great Nj
agara Falls. Part of the program
committees arrangements of stunts
was that every MEMBER should read
an original poem on Rotary. Orig
inal is eminently correct for, although
many of the poems submitted were
decidedly clever, some were far re
moved from that description and had
only their originality to commend
them.
Several quarters were collected
from procrastinating and bashful
members who failed to provide them
selves with a supply of the poetic
stuff, while to C. E. Dobson went the
prize of safety razor for the best
poem on the subject of Rotary. The
razor turned out to be the last word
in safety being made of highly tenn
pered and hollow ground rubber
throughout.
Will H. WATSON delivered a mas
terly, pointed and enjoyable clear ten
minute talk on "Rotarisn," pointing
out the every day application of the
principles of Rotary to business life
and conduct.
The July amusement committee re-
turned Dr. Mallory Xennedy's goat
which it, in a neatly worded letter,
averred President Fisher got when
he appointed the new committee to
help out in the work.
The prize winning poem of Mr..
Dobson was as follows:
A Rotary Greeting.
Here's health to all of you, good
fellows gay!
And gay fellows, good for work or for
play.
Here's pledge of the things that
we're going to do,
And toast to the men who will carry
them through.
Here's health to our sweethearts,
maids, widows or wives,
At our work or our play, they're the
light TO our lives!
Here's pledge to our country, the
land of the free,
Come veal or come woe, we stand
fast for thee!
