TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy
and youthful with a simple mixture
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray
stresked and faded hair is grandmoth-
er's recipe. and folks are again using
il to keep their hair a good, even color
which is quite sensible, as we are liv-
ing in an age which youthful. appear
ance 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 ingredients, called 'Wyeth' s
Sage and Sulphur Compound" for
about 20 cents bottle. 1t is very pop
ular because nobody can discover it
has been applied. Simply moisten your
comb a 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 Compound, is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications. it also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appearance
of abundance which is so attractive.
This ready-to-use preparation is a de-
Iightful toilet requisite for those who
desire more youthful appearance 1t
is not intended for the cure, mitigation
or prevention of disease.-Adv.

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be care
full what you use. Most soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali, which is very injurious, as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store, and
few ounces will last the whole family
for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is
all that is required 1t makes an album
dance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses
thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and is
soft, fresh looking, bright. fluffy, wavy
and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens
and takes out every particle of dust,
dirt and acknowledgements

CARE FOR 100000
Red Cross Force Capable of Serving
Big Q. S. Army.

Washington, March 29.-The Amer
lean Red Cross is in shape to care for
an army of 100000 men, it was an
nounced at headquarters here today.
During the past six months, the or
ganization has been conducting an
extensive campaign for members
which has resulted in the enlistment of
thousands of trained and unframed
women.
New chapters have been opened in
every part of the country and the or
ganization, it is said, has never been
better equipped for national crisis
Not only has the organizat ton been
successful in preparing women for
nursing and nurses assistants but it
has also prepared women for other
important work connected with Red
Cross service, such as the making of
garments and other articles that will
be needed in hospitals.

It's Not an Appropriate Collar
for Bulldogs to Wear.

Emporia, Kan, March 29.-The
Kansas Daughters of the American
Revolution. in annual session here,
got into real action when they began
to discuss the toggery Uncle Sam
wears in the funny cartoons and when
they began a discussion of the des-
ecrations of Old Glory, such as US
ing it to decorate bulldogs and max
ing dust rags out of worn out flags,
as some women of the state are ac-
cused of doing.
Since the threatening war has
stirred the patriotism of the country
jealous patriots have gotten out their
flags to display their loyalty to the
government and in many states there
has been trouble over misuse of the
sacred emblem of liberty. But, if
the Kansas D. A. r. has it's way, there
will be no more trouble along this
line in Kansas after the next legis-
lature meets because they propose to
have a law passed that will adequately
punish those who do not know how
to respect the stars and stripes under
which our forefathers have bled and
died.
Mrs Effie Van Tuyl of Lawrence,
livened up the discussion of desc
Grafton by introducing clippings from
newspapers and postcards which
showed there are many who do not
have "A proper respect for the flag.
Mrs. Guernsey who is a candidate for
head of the national organization de-
plored the practice of cartoonists in
making Uncle Sam a whole spring
suit out of a flag and gave a very
definite idea of what she considers
the proper use of the stars and
stripes.
William Allen White Speaker.
Among the speakers on Wednes-
days program were William Allen

Road Association Works on Proposed
Topeka-K. C. Highway.

A committee of the Topeka Good
Roads association will undertake to
present to farmers living on pro-
posed Kansas City-Topeka highway,
the cost of building a brick, cement
and hard surfaced road under the
new road law. H. S. Putney, presi-

a committee for that purpose.
First, the committee must lay out
a benefit district and then estimates
must be prepared by an engineer on
the cost of surfacing, grading anG
other matters of construction of a good
road. The proposed highway will start
at the foot of Kansas avenue and go
directly east to the Douglas county

Improvement would cost them. The
good roads boosters held their meet
