COMB SAGE TEA IN
HAIR TO DARKEN II.
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
keep her Locks Dark,
Glossy, Thick.

The old-time mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers treatment and folks are
again using 1t to keep their hair a
good, even color, which is quite SEN
slble, as we are living in an age when
youthful appearance is OF the great
est advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
theltroublesome task Of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product called "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" for about SO
cents bottle. 1t is very popular be-
cause nobody can discover 1t has been
applied. Simply moisten your comb
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears. but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur is that, besides beauti-
fully darkening the hair after few
applications, 1t also produces that soft
luster and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive; besides. pre-
vents dandruff, itching scalp and fall
ing hair.-Advertisement.

The great danger Of kidney trou-

merciless succession. Don't neglect
your kidneys. Help tho kidneys with
Doan's Kidney Pills, which are so
strongly recommended right here in

PALACE
of Industry at the Industries of
the Empire Fair is to Be a
Huge Building.

LONDON, Jan. 6.-Ground has just
been broken here for a huge new per-
manent exhibition building to be
known as the Palace Of Industry.
The building, located at Willesden
Green-about six miles distant from
the center of the city-will cover an
area Of $4,000 square feet, nearly four
times the size Of any similar building
in London. 1t will be opened early in
1917 with an exhibition known as the
Industries of the Empire Fair" which
is planned to be "the greatest trade
exhibition ever organized" The fair
will be under the cooperative aus
pieces of all the principal trade organ
izations Of the British empire, and
over 5000 exhibitors representing sew
enty distinct lines Of business have
already applied for space. The 'front.'

|CL OTHINC MATERIAL
NEEDED IN BEL GUM

buy in Belgium and northern France
there are seven thousand In these
lines, some Of which in the remoter
provinces are already suffering in
tensely for the want Of warm clothing.
Even the -four sacks in which the
commissions supplies arrived are
seized upon and converted into cloth
ing and this winter many a Belgian
will have no other underwear than
can be provided by these sacks. Cloth
ing is now being issued by canteens
operating In conjunction with the food
distributing stations, but the present
supply is utterly inadequate for the
demand.
This Is the new problem facing the
commission and they are again look
ing to America to pioneer the way In
this, as that country did in the food
relief movement. Not only have the
Belgians used up their original stock
Of clothing, but even with means to
buy they could not secure more. AS
tho importation Of worn clothing Is
forbidden the commission has sent out
an appeal for new clothing or, better
still, material for its manufacture,
which will not only provide the neces-
slty but keep a few more Belgian
workers off the bread line. Already in
its huge clothing headquarters. for
merly a Brussels skating rink, the
commission has fifteen thousand peo-
pie at work on clothing which Is dis
trlbuted from there to the various
communal warehouses. Similar work.
shops have been established in Ant
werp. Llege, st. Quentin, Lille and
many smaller places, but unless the
commission can secure enough ma
terial to employ 100000 people before
the end Of January 1t is feared that
there will be an epidemic Of pneu-
monia in the bread line before the end
Of February.

OF late years the cooperative prin-
ciple has made enormous strides in
Holland. All over the country, CO.
operative organizations have sprung
up. The idea, originally intended for
the benefit of government officials
only, has been extended and made to
apply to widely diversified objects; to
agricultural, dairy farming, building
and credit societies, until the forma-
ton of central Netherlands Co
operative Union" became necessity.
This body has an advisory board OF
experts in all matters concerning CO.
operation.
Hollands chief wealth lies in It's
agricultural and dairying industries,
and it is in these branches Of produc-
tivity that cooperation has proved OF
the greatest benefit, especially to the
small farmer. The agricultural In
stitution known as the Raffeisen Bank
at Utrecht has accumulated savings
amounting to s2,4OO,00O, and has adj
vanced loans on mortgages to mem
bers of its $50 branches aggregating
81, 100000. The Central Farmers Loan
Bank at Eindhoven, in North Brabant,
has 37S branches, a savings bank total
of $2,2OO,OOO and a mortgage loan ac-
count Of $1,2S0,O00. These are big
figures for small country like llol-
land.
The difficulties encountered by the
cooperative societies during the pres
ent war have been many and varied;
but the public spirit displayed by the
organizers of the various institutions
has succeeded in overcoming most, II
