a poem in the style Of Edgar Allen

Women at War!

We do not mean the Amazons, the
dynamiters, nor the militants.
But those good women SO dear to
our hearts who make our homes for us.
These wholesome folks have treaty
with cleanliness that keeps them ever
at war against dirt and uncleanliness
in all its forms.
Soap, if you work hard enough with
it, will make things clean, but it won't
kill germs.
Borax mixed in proportion with soap
will make the soap work better and
your work easier. Also borax kills
germs.
So that by using borax soap chips
you get things clean with less work
than by the old methods and you also
get them antiseDtic.
25c worth of "20 Mule Team Borax
soap Cnlps" will give you more clea1-
illness with less work tha.. SOC worth
of bar soap or washing powders.-Adv.

Confidence.

The railroads want the confidence Of the
public. The days when public rights and wishes
were ruthlessy ignored are gone. Today the
transportation lines are pleading to know the
wishes of the people. The Pennsylvania railroad
has been very active in this movement
Robert C. Wright, freight traffic manager of
the Pennsylvania railroad, addressing the Traffic
club of Baltimore, recently, said in part:
'Some time ago the Pennsylvania railroad dis
played on bulletin boards all over it's system
large posters asking the people to give the man.
agement the benefit of their advice. The re-
sponses to that bulletin were very interesting.
A great many of course dealt with some personal
grievance, but for the most part they showed a
most helpful spirit on the part of the public. The
railroad issued that poster in all seriousness, and
it was met in the same vein. This shows that
the public is tolerant if it understands.
eve want the people along our lines to know
that the Pennsylvania railroad is doing every
thing it to give the best service possible and
to encourage the business of the territory
through which it operates, and of the country
at large. We want all the advices and assistance
we can get from our people. We want the public
to understand, and to believe in, the manage
ment of this railroad. We think they WILL
because the management of the Pennsylvania
railroad believes in the public.
'"The thing that is needed in our business life
and which l might say has been lacking the last
few years, and the thing which is particularly
necessary in the relations between the carriers
and the public, is confidence.
"The railroad companies have been urged to
take the public into their confidence, but they
can't take the public into their confidence until
the public has confidence in them. have tried
it and know.
"You tell a man your cards are all on the
table and try to take him into your confidence,
but unless he has confidence in you he suspects
that there aces up your sleeve
"The first step in mutual confidence between
the carriers and the public is to restore the
public's confidence in the carriers. realize per-
fectly that the publics lack of confidence in the
railroads has been more or less justified in the
past due to the practices of the carriers, but let

GRAY HAIR BECOMES

Try Grandmother's Old Favorite
Recipe Of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound

lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is mus
Sy and troublesome
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get large
bottle for about so cents. Everybody
uses this old, famous recipe, because
no one can possibly tell that you dark
ened your hair, as it does it so natur-
ally and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-

beautifully dark thick and glossy AID

VEGETABLE

Vegetable calomel, extract Of the
root of the old-fashioned may-apple
plant, does not salivate. AS liver
stimulator, it's great. It's a per-
feet substitute for ordinary calo-

because its action is gentle instead
of severe and irritating - and it
leaves no mean, disagreeable after

and prescribe may-apple root (po-
