The Syrian king, Autiochus Eriphanos,
set uP ststue OF pagan derry in the
Jewish Temple oi jerusalem. ana tried
70 compel tho Jews 20 worship "a and
abandon their own historic faith. This
ehor. at forcing an alien religion upon
ne Jewish people provoked a bitter re-
volt in which the Jews. led by the IA
nous Judas Maccabeus ami his brohers,
finally defeated the Syrian armies. re-
entered the temple and redodicated il
az the center Of Jewish worship. In
honor of this rededication. the feast Of
hannukah dedication was establish
d. its eight days to be holidays, days of
song and thanksgiving.
The holiday is marked by special
prayers of thanks aud psalms Of praise
inserted into the daily ritual, and by tho
kindling Of the Channukah lights. The
usual custom is TO light one light on tho
first day. two on the second, three on
the third, and so on, adding one each
successive day of the feast. As TO the
reason for this custom Of lSindliug the
lights, legend tells that when Judas
Msccaheus and his victorious army re
dedicated the temple and cleansed it of
MI the impurities Of idolatry, he found
that there was only enough pure oil 10
keep the perpetual light burning for one
lay, and il would he long before new
oil could be procured. But miracu-

for eight days. and the perpetual light
was not extinguished. For this rea-
son It was ordained that every year
lights should be- kindled for eight
days IN every household. II became
customary for the lights to be placed
IN the windows and the doorways. so

lighted up. Thus the feast came 20

Of this feast is the twenty-fifth OF the

j. White clerked the sale, which
amounted to $4,000, and draws
a comparison to similar sales a
year ago. At that time a sale of
this magnitude would mean
about four or five hundred dol
lars in cash and the balance in
notes, whereas at Wednesdays
sale only about $3.50 was taken
in notes and the balance Of the
total sale came in cash. Very

LADIES! OARKfN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look years younger! Use Grand
mothers recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and nobody will know

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for 80 cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound you viii get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
of other ingredients, which can be de.
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair,
a well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell ii has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair taking one
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. 1t is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease. kag
