Beulah. Jan 29,-The weathere we
are having here at present would be
hard to improve upon, and farmers

and quality of goods on the market
is such as to make it almost prohi-
bitive. and the users will surely have
sacks enough to hold the crop. The
only solution of the problem is live
stock-keep every thing on the farm
But the wise will begin now; this
is one of the lessons taught us by the
war in Europe, let us profit by it.

That beautiful, even shade of dark
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When ii
fades, turns gray, streaked and looks
dry, wispy and scraggy, just an appli-
cation or two of Sage and Sulphur
enhances its appearance a hundred
fold.
Don't bother to prepare the tonic;
you can get from any drug store a
50-cent bottle of ''Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" ready to use.
This can always be depended upon to
bring back the natural color, thick
ness and lustre Of your hair and re-
Rove dandruff, stop scalp itching
and falling hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur because it darkens so
naturally and evenly that nobody can
3ll it has been applied. You simply
dampen sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through the hair,
taking one small strand at time; By
morning the gray hair has disappear
ed, and after another application it
becomes beautifully dark and appears
glossy, lustrous and abundant.-Adv.

lavender satin ribbon with a mirror
used for the bottom. having the glass
side out The ribbon forms frame
for it, shirred about the edge. At the
top the bag is edged with gold lace,
and gold lace braid Is festooned about
1t under a second festoon of small rib
bon flowers. II is closed with lavender
silk cords, which end in small disks
made of the cord.
The vanity" corsage Is a bunch of
deep purple violets simulated in mar
row satin ribbon. with lifelike orchid
of silk embedded In them. In the
heart of the orchid is hidden a tiny
box OF compact powder and powder
puff. This bit Of artifice is disclosed,
to the delight of everyone, when the
wearer of the bouquet improves her
complexion by looking to the flower
for aid.
The stems of the flowers are tied
