Asking one of the Jack ies at table if he was satisfied with his food, he was much amused on receiving the quick reply, Sure, it's better than I had at home.'
 When one of Uncle Sam's battle ships fares forth to sea she carries in her hold sufficient food it would seem, to feed an army Tn her capa- eious refrigerators may be seen hun dreds of quarters of the choicest beef which later will make it's ap- pearance on Jacks table The flour the ship carries is counted literally in thousands of sacks, which will be converted in the ships steam baker ies into bread of excellent quality and freshness

 Sugar, coffee and tea sufficient to stock scores of shops will be there. In the dry provision hold may be founl, ill addition to canned foods. enormous quantities of raisins and currents, preserves and jam Thou sands of tins of condensed milk. vast quantities of baked beans and canned soups are stored away.

Ladies! Darken
Your Gray Hair
Look years youngest Use Grand
mothers recipe Of Sage Tea and, Sui
phur and nobody viii know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to It's natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on chat
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of ''Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
"A we'll known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell II has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire more youthful
appearance. 1t is not intended Tor

Progress of acquiring proprietorship
Of the Ashland toll bridge in conjunc.
ton with Saunders county has halted
the rulnor being that certain stock.
holders among the farmers who own
a good share of the stock, are unwill.
ing to give up their holdings.
The owners of the Ashland bridge
find themselves facing two PROPOSE,
tions.
One OF these is that the state will
build a new free bridge across the
Platte river at some near point. prob
ably the state hatcheries, which will
necessitate moving the Omaha-Lin-
coin. Denver automobile route to that
point. This will mean that Ashland
will not be on the o. l.. D. route,
which is q proposition which will
probably not meet with very much
favor. by the Ashland business men.
According to the report filed with
the railway commission, the bridge
has been paying 20 per cent income
to Its stockholders. The railway
commission considers that the bridge
is a. common carrier and therefore
under ruling cannot pay its owners
more than 7 per cent.
1t is understood that both the rail
commission and the state board of IT.
rigation and highways is prepared to
act on both directions in case the
bridge company does not accept the
offer of the state of the amount made.
With a free bridge across the same
river at near point it is not likely
that the toll bridge will be very
heavy paying proposition in the
future. ''fsst. ssi,' III
