COMB SAGE TEA IN
HAIR To DARkEN It
It's Grandmother's Recipe TO
keep her Locks Dark,
Glossy, Beautiful.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked
and faded hair is grandmother's recipe,
and folks are again using it to keep their
hair good, even color, which is quite
sensible, as we are living in an age when
youthful appearance is of the greatest
advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use product,
improved by the addition of other ingred-
tents, called 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" for about SO cents bottle
1t is very popular because nobody can
discover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair, TAX
ing one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides
beautifully darkening the hair after a
few applications, it also produces that
soft lustre and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive This ready-to-use
preparation is delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire more youthful APP
pearance 1T is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease,

MEN, WHO KNOW
BUY OVERLANDS

The Model SOB Overland automo-
bile received another very gratifying
mark of endorsement several days
ago when Captain Louis L.. Lane, the
man who found Vilhijalmar Stefans-
son, the Arctic explorer last sum-
mer, purchased an Overland car OF
that type, after a thorough investi-
CATION of it's merits.
Stefansson had been given up for
lost when Lane, heading a searching
party in a Government vessel, dis
covered him quartered on Banks
Land and was the first to bring back
news of the explorers discoveries.
Captain Lane, by reason of his
perilous calling, is an expert on me-
chanics, as well as a daring naviga-
tor, and that he should choose an
Overland after a rigorous examina-
ton of it's engines, equipment and
construction, is good proof of it's sta
bility.

THE IDEAL HUSBAND.
Some Observations on the Side and
Dogmatic Conclusion.

You are probably a woman. Few
men would pause to read an article
headed THE Ideal Husband" Man
knows his fellow men too we'll.
Of course it is true that nearly every
married woman has at some time in
her life claimed to have found the one
ideal husband, but not for long. He
is not a stable article; he is only a
fieeting glimpse.
Shortly after young married WON
an declares hers to be the ideal nus
band he exhibits a tendency to crum-
bic his crackers in his soup or to place
a slice of bread in his empty dinner
plate and submerge it in gravy. These
things ''are not DONE"
While q man is still engaged-held
under option, as it were, but not def.
nitely contracted for-he is for a short
while considered ideal However, he
just begins to enjoy his perfection
when it is discovered by his general
manager elect that he rests his knife
and fork half ON the tablecloth and
half on his plate, while they should be
draped artistically across his plate
midway between meat and potatoes.
To save time, probably he also cuts
his meat into small pieces before start
ing to eat it.
He has good reasons for doing as he
does, but they do not excuse him. His
sort of conduct and perfection simply
do not walk hand in hand.
No young couple should be engaged
long enough for either one to discover
the others shortcomings. So long as
a man and girl are SO mutually mes
merized that the eyes Of one never
leave the eyes Of the other he is per-
feet, but the moment he allows her
glances to stray below his Adams APP
pie, the moment he loses control, he
loses also perfection. She realizes that
his knowledge of esthetics was CLEAN
ed from an abridged edition; that his
tie is not in vogue, that his collar is
too loose and too low and therefore too
comfortable
All me! 1 have strayed from my
subject-the ideal husband. Let me
return to it and proceed.
There is no such thing.--Paul Wing

WaShburn has candidate Tor
state senator for this district in the
person of H. H. Peavey, whose state
ment of principles indicates him to
be man who would acceptably fill
the bill as a representative of this
section of Wisconsin in the upper
house of the state laW-making body
Mr.. Peavey says he is Progress
i've Republican with no frills. l be-
lieve in state regulation Of public
utilities, properly administered III
the interest of the people, but still
paying the owners reasonable rate
Of interest on the capital invested. .
That, we believe, agrees with the
sentiments of a great majority of the
people of upper Wisconsin,, We want
to see the people get a square deal,
and still do not want to prevent the
man who. invests his capital in any
enterprise from getting the returns
that he is entitled to.
Following the sentence above
quoted, Mr. Peavey goes on to say
that 'More than any any other thing
am interested in making the devel-
opment of Northern Wisconsin by
state aid a state issue, for in that
manner only do I believe will we
ever get what we are entitled to
as pioneers in converting this cut
over stump land into farm homes
cities and towns"
Mr.. Peavey demonstrates a com
prehensive understanding of the
needs of upper Wisconsin,; in his
platform, which is as follows:
'In the interest of state develop
ment, and more particularly, the
northern or unsettled portions, we
feel the direct need of Commission
er of immigration, who shall be a
man Of abilities of the same class
as our other members of state com
missions, and who therefore, shall
| be paid on the same basis.
and further, that the settlement
and development of the now wild
lands, comprising as they do, one
third Of the area Of the state, is a
great problem enough, with enough
advantages to the state to warrant
the proper and effective administra-
ton of the work and to this end we
demand an annual appropriation OF
$50, 100000 for such work.
eve further demand representa-
ton on state boards and commits
sions, engaged in administering
those public matters particularly af-
fecting this section of the state;
the conservation commission for in
stance; the present administration
has denied us any cash recognition.
Zone of the great and pressing
needs of northern Wisconsin today
is roads Building of new roads has
proven one of the most effective
ways Of bringing settlement and de-
velopment. Roads are the arteries
in which must flow the commercial
life of all agricultural enterprises;
the settler and the settled farmer
must have roads. But northern Wis
consin, with it's lakes and streams
bass and trout, with it's woods Of
pine, hemlock, birch and cherry, full
OF wild game and natural beauty, I'M
beaten anywhere in the world, should
be the park and pleasure ground of
every citizen in Wisconsin. And to
this end every tax payer and citizen
is equally interested with us in the
building of some principal lines of
state highway that will make this
great natural park accessible to all
the people Of Wisconsin.

plication, has developed Michigan

dNV7SN3 NJ NOILSanO WHAT TO TAX NEXT IS
With cost of War Steady Mounting
 Levies Must be Extended.

London. Dec. 15.-What can we tax next? is the question which financial advisers of the government are pug zing over as the time draws near for next years budget. With the cost of the war steadily mounting, any pro- posal that bids fair to realize few thousand pounds per year without in justice to individuals and without in creased cost of collection is worth careful scrutiny. The new French tax on all who buy extrayagant meals at cafes and restaurants is being favor ably watched from the English side of the channel, and at the same time even the smallest existing items of public revenue are being examined to see if they, can be made to yield more
 A writer in the Economist suggests a revision of the numerous license du- ties, other than liquor licenses. For example, a manufacturer of wood alco- hol now pays an annual license of 10 pounds, 10 sht1lingS while a manufac- turer of petrol or gasoline only pays one pound. "The number of firms in volved is less than eighty" says the writer, but it is believed that they could safely stand a considerable in- crease in charges. A similar increase is possible in the case of dealers in more could be obtained by increasing the licensing fees for selling patent medicines from five shillings to a pound. These licenses woreover are at present collected only in Great Brit ain, and could be extended without great injustice to Ireland as well.
 'It must be said" writes another tax expert, that so small annual duty as five shillings ought never to have been imposed for any purpose. The cost of collecting such a sum once a year is altogether out of proportion to
Norwich bulletin., 1916-12-16

the revenue secused. Even the dog tax, which at the present rate of Is Sd Q.85) yields nearly 750,000 pounds yearly, could certainly be increased without appreciable hardship The present license fee charged for dealers in tobacco is 5s 3d per year. It is proposed to increase this to one pound, representing an increase in rev. enue of nearly 300,000 pounds. A doubling of license fees is recom- mended for real estate agents and dealers in gold and silver. The former now pay from two to ten pounds, the latter from two pounds six shillings to five pounds fifteen shillings. An in
 crease of about 60,000 pounds a year in the treasury's receipts could be obtain ed by these increases.
 Playing cards, which at present pay three pence pack, may be expected to suffer an increase to perhaps six pence.
 Other licenses which are likely to be increased are the duties on male ser wants, on carriage and motor cars, the gun licenses and the licenses in con- nection with the hunting or preserva- ton of game. The tax on male ser wants may also be supplemented by a
 new tav on all households employing more than one female servant. The
 tax on male servants at present is 15 shillingS a year.
 A year ago the exchequer proposed the doubling of the taxes on automo- piles, but this resulted in an altogether
 excessive in crease in the duties of the
 higher powered cars, and the propos-
 als were eventually withdrawn. Any
 new proposals which are submitted are
 likely to involve a more careful re-
 vision of the scale, graduating the
 rates so as to prevent such anomalies
 as duty of 42 pounds on a car of 60
 horse power and S5 pounds on car
