cmfwyp shrdluuchrdluhuxzflr
brings back the natural color and lustre
to the hair when faded, streaked or gray,
Years ago the only way to get this mix

asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get large bottle of this famous old
recipe, improved by the addition of other
ingredients, for about 80 cents.
Don't stay grayl Try it! No one can
possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it SO naturally, and even
ly You dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy
and attractive.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite for those
who desire dark hair and youthful APP
pearance. It is not intended for the

Find Consumers Use
Trickery to Get Coal
One Man Borrows Baby In
Plea to Dealer, Admins
traitor Is Told
IStnf Correspondencel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-The fur
mace without coal is not an encourage
ment to honesty, according to reports
reaching the fuel administration from
its field agents. All kinds of strate-
gems are being employed by the man
without coal in his bin.
One field agent of the fuel admins
tration tells of Newark, n. j., re-
taller who has been supplying his reg
ular customers with small lots of coal
and has declined all new business Gus
toners unless there was sickness IN
the family. He was appealed to by a
PROSPECTIVE customer who demonstrat-
ed that his was a case of dire need
by wheeling up delicate looking baby,
accompanied by a pale wife, to the
coal yard. The coal he so earnestly
sought was delivered, and then it was
discovered that the new customer had
borrowed the baby.
In the same town there was jewel
ler who left regular employment and
got a Job driving a coal cart for a
local dealer. His first trip out was
with two tons of coal. This he prompt
ly dumped into his own cellar and then
resigned, saying that the work was too
hard for him.
Another shrewd case came before one
of the Pennsylvania county fuel admins
istrators, whose directions are that the
dealers shall deliver only ton and
half-ton lots, and no coal is TO be de-
livered where the prospective customer
has a two weeks supply. 1t was dis
covered that one man had two cellars
connected by long tunnel. He was
ordering half tons and carrying the
coal from one cellar to the other. By
the time his scheme was unearthed he
had accumulated four tons, but he was
still out after more coal.
The dealer he applied to sent him
to the fuel administrator, where he
made affidavit that he had no coal at
all. The next step was an indictment
for perjury. In addition, the offender
was made 10 take his little bucket and
carry three and half IONS of his i'll
gotten coal to the sidewalk and thence
load il on to a coal cart.
