rendered the respective arts show
ed careful and earnest work. The
development was Il part of the
every day instruction in music and
speaking, and the public rendition
gave, in Il short time a concrete
example of the work accomplished
in the schools. Tyndall is to be
congratulated on its efficient corps
of teachers.
The third district institute for
the Tabor Districts was held in
that city in the Public School
Building ON Saturday March "a.
Every teacher belonging to this
district was present at the meeting
,ome driving Is miles over almost
impossible roads. A professional
spirit that will prompt such an un-
dertaking is a forcible example rs
to the value of such meeting.

Awards lust now, but as Don as

There has been an unusual
mount of Diphtheria in this Coun
y during the past winter but for
unately no deaths. This is re.
narkable when enc stops to think
# the epidemics of this disease in
former years When an outbreak OF
hat malady was sure to be coon
ranied by a high death rate, en-
Cire families of children being
wiped out at times. The reason
jor this change is of course ac-
counted for, in the early s of
Oiphtheria AntitOxine which is
practically an absolute specific and
makes the disease in the majority
f cases a minor ailment, provid-
81 the injection is given early
nOugh. This latter must not be
forgotten as the use of antitoXin
nay be likened to the use of wa
| ,er in case of fire which must be
,sed in the beginning-Of the con-
lagration and is useless after it
MS destroyed the building.
The board Of Health of this
county is now furnishing the

Outstanding that same is to be fur

where people are hardly able to
Jay for same, to be furnished free

This is done so that the antit0xin

COMB SAGE TEA IN
HAIR TO DARKEN 1T
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 recipe, and
folks are again using it TO keep their
hair a 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, i'm
proved by the addition of other ingredi-
ents, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" for about 80 cents a bottle.
It is very popular, because nobody can
discover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or a soft brush with
It and draw this through your hair, tax
ing one. small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Eulphur Compound is that, besides
beautifully darkening the hair after
few applications it also produces that
soft luster and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive. This ready.to-
use preparation is delightful toilet req
uisite for those who desire more youth
full appearance. 1t is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease.-Adv.

grave, will be taken care of in additional
legislation.
The bill carries S260,000,0O0. Among
other things, it appropriatcs $1,000 600
for training camps at Plattsburg and
elsewhere: $l0000,000 for field artillery
ammunition, s4,235,000 for officers re-
serve corps and approximately S9,0OO,00o
for aviation.
Immediate purchase of reserve quarter
masters supplies for the army up to the
limits of available appropriations was or
dered yesterday by Secretary Baker.
Purchasing agents have been sent in to
the market by Major General Sharpe.
quartcrmaster general, to carry out the
orders in the shortest possible time.
The SchuyllSill arsenal has been au
thorized by the war department to pur
chase materials tor an army of 100000
men, according TO Colonel George H,
Penrose, commanding officer at the arse
nal. In The past, he said, the arsenal had
been called upon to supply but 100000
men.
Colonel Penrose said that more than so
factory owners in the New England
states and as far west as Oregon had
volunteered TO turn THEN plants over TO
him for the use of the United States gov
eminent in case of necessity At the
present time, he added, there is not
enough stock ON hand in arsenals to meet
an emergency. Business men," he de-
clared, could do much to help in such
a crisis at this time. Impress upon the
from your district to look |
ahead and appropriate money SO that we
might take advantage of the market.
When we want money for supplies Con-
gress waits until the supplies are actual
" needed and then takes action. This is
too late and too costly"
